Valentino Kaleido Gem-Embellished Tote, Handbag of the Day

Totes aren't really party pieces but this one is so pretty and fabulous I would probably find an excuse to make it work as one. It's the Kaliedo Gem-Embellished Tote by Valentino, and they weren't messing around with the gems -- not a single visible surface is gemless aside from the shoulder strap, handles, and designer-embossed logo plaque. This glitzy number will make daily errands a glamorous occasion in graduated clear to brown faceted gem embellishments and a dove gray satin lining. Magnetic push-stud closure at the top, interior pockets, and protective silver feet. $2,995
