Reed Krakoff Boxer II Alligator Tote, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags


Krakoff beautifully combines sophistication and elegance in his Boxer II Tote. A simple silhouette is enhanced with luxurious sharkskin ($2,950) and alligator ($6,900) juxtaposed with conventional fabrics like duffle and flannel creating a unique and trendsetting handbag.

The Boxer II is adorned with straps around the opening in addition to straps hanging over the flap, which is fitting given that Krakoff says the Boxer II was "inspired by the idea of the wraps that boxers put around their wrists." With features like an inside front and back zip pockets, a center panel zip pocket and a front split pocket, and an all around roomy interior, the Boxer II is ideal for work, travel and of course as your everyday bag.

Filed under: Handbags

Our friends from Birds of Sausalito who recently helped us giveaway a pair of luxury pajamas also has a new line of leather goods. The company has co-branded with San Francisco's Mulholland Brothers,a company we've covered for their line of quality bags before. The new Birds of Sausalito line is done in a deep brown leather they call "stout" no doubt after the dark beer. The weekend bag shown here is known as the Shorthorn and is a classic overnight bag with a generous outside pocket, rolled leather handles and a detachable padded shoulder strap. When you unzip the top center zipper the bag's top stands up and open allowing for easy packing. The bag is nylon lined and inside there is mostly open space except for a single zippered envelope pocket. It's the sort of classic bag that never goes out of style and attains a certain well-worn gravitas as it ages. It sells for $795.

Coach Bleecker Leather Tooled Floral Large Duffle, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags


I warned everybody before that I was suddenly feeling springy and all about the florals, and today is no exception with the Coach Bleecker Leather Tooled Floral Large Duffle. It's got a classic feminine duffle shape but with an updated design of whimsical flowers that have a variety of different little designs in each petal (notice the Coach signature C!). It's neutral, which is always great, without coming off as plain, which is also great. Big enough to carry all your day-to-day essentials, I call this bag a spring must have. $798

It has a top zipper and there are a total of six pockets in the spacious, canvas-lined interior. $825.

Some trends are limited to just one gender, and others are much better off left that way, though they have been forced to cross over.

There are four zipped exterior pockets along the body of the bag, as well as one within the zipped central compartment. It measures 18.9" x 8.6" x 8.2". Price: $1,585.

Filed under: Handbags, Luxury Travel & Hotels

Since you can't take a whole lot in your carry-on luggage these days, it's important to have a bag that is easy to recognize at the baggage claim in case you need to check it. After all, the only thing worse than spending unnecessary time at the airport is having to go back to the airport because someone took your luggage by mistake. The Lula Holiday Duffle stands out from your average traveling bag because it is just a bit girly, a nice change from utilitarian black and navy bags. It is made of brown Italian leather with gold lambskin trim and a satin lining. At only 17" x 12" x 7", it could easily be carried around during the day in lieu of a regular handbag and it will definitely fit under the seat in front you on a plane - provided there are no liquids in it, of course. Price: $473.
