Hester van Eeghen Bon Bon Bag, Handbag of the Day

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) — Apr 11th 2011 at 5:01PM

The Hester van Eeghan Bon Bon bag is a fresh take on structure and color for spring. A marriage between framed and bucket styles, the most notable feature is its highly shined silvertone top handles that work together to create a unique interlocking closure. The body is made of soft Italian calfskin with contrast piping detail and a subtle designer stamp embossed on the lower front. Inside the roomy interior there's one zippered pocket and a fine textile lining in a deep shade of plum purple. $695

Jil Sander Market Floral-Print Silk-Twill Bag, Handbag of the Day

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) — Apr 10th 2011 at 5:03PM

Florals don't come much bolder than this layer-upon-layer print from Jil Sander. The Market Floral-Print Silk-Twill Bag is surprisingly versatile thanks its rainbow of colors to draw from and simple, all-one-piece block shaping. The body and top handles are luxe silk-twill but the detachable (convertible?) shoulder strap is buckled pink leather. Plus there's a little bit of midnight blue leather trim along the bottom and midnight blue stitching details. It's unlined and has no pockets, so essentially it's a tote. A gorgeous, happy one. $740

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) — Apr 8th 2011 at 5:02PM

Victoria Beckham Hexagonal Chain leather shoulder bag

Victoria Beckham likes to keep things clean and simple, and she also clearly favors concertina-style sides and divided interiors as shown on this Hexagonal Chain Leather Shoulder Bag. Matte-finish rose leather gets zero adornments except for fine stitching along edges and minimal but bright goldtone hardware. The chain shoulder strap is made up of flattened hexagonal links for added interest and texture, and there's a small push-lock fastening visible on the front. There's also a golden designer-stamped plaque beneath the flap and the interior is lined in beige leather and features three compartments, several pouch and zippered pockets, and a removable designer-stamped matching wallet. $3,250

Marcia Sherill's $46,000 Grande Anne Tole, Handbag of the Day

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) — Apr 7th 2011 at 5:01PM

The Grande Anne Tole by Marcia Sherrill may appear unassuming when compared to some of the flashier bags we sometimes feature but this little gem packs some serious luxury punch. Shown here in natural/black python skin one of the most notable features of the Grande Anne Tole (along with many of Marcia Sherrill's other creations) is its solid 18k gold hardware throughout. Yes, that large designer-stamped button on the front is basically a big golden nugget. Other features include structured, timeless shaping, rolled double top handles, and a metallic gold plonge leather interior lining. Prices vary according to the going rate for gold by the ounce but you can expect to pay somewhere in the neighborhood of $46,000 for this beauty.

Maison Martin Margiela Satin Shoulder Bag, Handbag of the Day

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) — Apr 5th 2011 at 5:02PM

The color is the primary focus on this Maison Martin Margiela Satin Shoulder Bag. Pink satin can be tough to pull off but this bright shade of fuschia is quite luxe and gorgeous, although I'm not crazy about the soft-body nature of the design as it gives the whole thing a slight 'make-up bag' vibe. Regardless it's very pretty and the addition of a dainty double chain shoulder strap and minimalist shiny silver hardware gives it a classy and feminine energy.This handbag has a zip top, a combination lock on the pull, and one interior pocket with a black twill lining. $865

by Marsha Reid (RSS feed) — Apr 4th 2011 at 5:01PM

For the photographer and fashionista at heart, the 3.1 Phillip Lim Brea Bag ($575) may just be the perfect bag.

Styled after a traditional camera bag, the Brea maintains all the storage benefits of a camera bag and throws out the rest.
