Isabella Fiore Folktale Fantasy Trina Large Hobo Bag



The lovely folks at Fab Sugar posted about a Fiore bag that I also can’t decide Yay or Nay for. My gut feeling is Nay unless you are part of generation y, aka younger crowd, and this funky pattern works for you. Fab Sugar describes the Isabella Fiore Folktale Fantasy Trina Large Hobo Bag perfectly as a “soccer ball with a folksy, colorful pattern that calls to mind some bucolic Scandinavian village.” Nail on the head, right? Time after time I find myself saying that a bag could work ok with jeans and a teeshirt. I am going to say that for this bag, because for some odd reason I can’t say that I hate it, but for many reasons I am no where near professing my love for it. Buy it via Nordstrom’s for $625.

Tell me what you think!

Sarah Jessica Parker Balenciaga Twiggy


Sarah Jessica Parker was the fashion diva of Sex and the City. While she wanders the city, she brings a new shade to the appeal of black and white. Grey and white is her theme while out in Greenwhich Village, can’t say it is flattering. But Sarah Jessica Parker’s Balenciaga Calcaire Twiggy does make her casual train wreck outfit more suitable. SJP we commend the bag and abhor the rest.

Thanks to the members of tPF for the pic!

Michael Kors Venus Shopper



Michael Kors is biting and witty on Project Runway and practical and funky in his designs. The Michael Kors Venus Shopper

 offers three supple and creamy colors (chocolate, black, or luggage (shown)) and all the amenities needed for this handbag. The additions that separate this bag from the rest are the braided top handles with rings, tabbed corners, and a drawstring closure that features Michael Kors charms. Kors himself may be a tough judge, but for this bag I don’t feel the need to judge his sense of style. For the typical person, it flows amazingly. Sizing up at 10″H x 12 1/2″W x 6″D, buy this shopper via Michael Kors for $428.
