Assouline + Cole Haan Bookbag

Book publishing extraordinaire Assouline and Cole Haan teamed up to create a sophisticated and refreshingly carefree tote fittingly named The Bookbag ($450). Adorned with Assouline's trademark Didot font on both sides, the slim structured tote is perfect to carry books, magazines and a laptop. Or if you are part of the lucky ones out there who got an iPad, you can just slip that in with room to spare. I love that the design doesn't favor a male or female, allowing both sexes to wear it. The interior is lined with canvas and zippered pockets for your smaller items. Also available in black and brown.

Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Slouchy Hobo, Handbag of the Day

by Annie Scott (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

The Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Slouchy Hobo is a perfect bag to follow this season's texture trend. This roomy hobo may look like it's covered in metallic chains, but it's actually chain-woven black metallic leather. How hot is that?

This metallic "Stephanie" number also comes in Silver and Gold, but we like the black -- a perfect, demure complement for all the 20s-style gear you'll be wearing around the holidays. The bright silver hardware is attractive and interesting, and the bag is lined in durable beige canvas. The texture makes this bag transition easily from day to night, even at 13"H x 17 1/2"W x 5"D.

The Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Slouchy Hobo is available from Neiman Marcus for $875.00.

Valentino Primevere Tote, Handbag of the Day

by Deidre Woollard (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

We've covered Valentino's flower purses before but this latest patent leather tote trades pretty for a bit of an edgier look. The black tote is covered with flowers for a look that is striking from a distance and fascinating once you get a closer view. The design peps up the basic tote style which is a 14" by 14" square that is 4" deep. The tote has goldtone hardware and there is also a detachable shoulder strap. It's on pre-order at Neiman Marcus for $2,495.

by Lisa Palladino (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Gadgets, Handbags, Men's Style

Orbino Luxury Cases recently debuted the Arista case for Apple's MacBook Air. This bag is so clean and classic that I'd love to carry it even without a laptop, and with the rich color choices, I might even be persuaded to break away from my traditional black.

Features include plush padding to protect your laptop, a gusseted front pocket, an iPhone/cell phone harness and an adjustable shoulder harness.

What a comfortable casual shape and beautiful periwinkle blue combined together to add a punch of color and style to your warm weather wardrobe.

Coach Bleecker Leather Large Flap, Handbag of the Day

by Sandy Maple (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

If I had to choose just one bag to carry for the remainder of my days, it would be a bag like this. Large, sturdy and neutral. The vintage leather looks like it would just get more beautiful with wear and the wide strap promises to be comfortable when the bag is loaded up. The hardware is over-sized, but the brass blends nicely with the warm tone of the leather. On the back side, it has a handy open pocket and the interior features several more. Lined with Tattersall fabric, the bag measures 10" x 10" x 4" with a 14" strap drop. $448.

Dooney and Bourke Medium Logo Lock Satchel, Handbag of the Day

by Sandy Maple (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

I usually find Dooney and Bourke bags to be a little stiff and boring. This one isn't all that exciting, but I like it for its simplicity. Clean lines, the sparing use of silver-tone hardware, and the neutral color make this satchel perfect for every day use. It looks quite rugged and up to the job of toting around the stuff you just can't leave home without. The cowhide leather is water repellent and the bottom has protective feet. Measuring 10½"H x 17"W x 8½" D, the bag features internal zip and cell phone pockets. It is also available in a pretty blue, but I think we've seen enough pretty blue bags lately. $395.

by Sandy Maple (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

This bag manages to combine slouchy with neat. The decorative buckled straps across the front give it a look that is more pulled-together than you might expect in a large gathered style. Available in black or brown, it looks comfy and well-worn. The top stitching is done in a contrasting thread and the hardware is brass-tone. With double 5" drop handles, the bag features a scalloped front flap, two side flap pockets and a cotton lining. Measuring 9"H X 13"W X 6"D, it has an one interior zip and two cell phone pockets. $545.

Kenneth Cole Chain or Shine Flap, Handbag of the Day

by Sandy Maple (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

Silly name, gorgeous bag. Modern and glowing, the shape is rather ordinary, but the details are not. The large flap front is free of adornment, allowing the unique handle and strap to be the focus of attention. With a 3" drop, the solid handle has just the right amount of heft and looks comfortable to carry thanks to the leather padding. The 11½" chain shoulder strap is substantial, but not chunky, and the overall look is delicate. Measuring 11½"L x 2"W x 8¾"H, it is lined and features interior zip, cell and wallet slip pockets. $159.

Furla Frede Bug Shape Bag, Handbag of the Day

by Sandy Maple (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

At first glance, this domed-shape bag doesn't really stand out. The details are spare and there is very little hardware to catch the eye. But maybe that is what makes it the ideal bag for every day use. With barely-there contrasting top stitching, the rolled leather handles attach to the bag as if they grew there. Softly gathered leather gives a feminine look and the light tan color goes with just about anything. With the logo embossed discreetly between the handles, the wide zippered closure gives full access to the interior, which is lined in logo fabric and features zip and cell phone pockets. Get it at Harrods for £355.00.

Filed under: Handbags

To appreciate the impact of this bag, consider its size: a roomy 15" x 15" with a 16½" across-the-body strap. It's big and beautifully shaped in a brown and black zebra print, cinched at the top with a slim leather belt. The gold-tone hardware on the buckle and rings has a pretty pebbly texture and inside it's fully lined. A stunning fall bag for $2590.

Marc Jacobs Mina Bag, Handbag of the Day

by Sandy Maple (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

I am seeing a lot of variations of this color in handbags this fall and I like it a lot. This deep plum leather is quilted with elastic, giving the bag a bit of give and an overall soft look. Nothing new about the chunky gold-tone chain strap, but it does look sharp against the diamond pattern of the bag. With a single zip pocket and classic kiss-lock closure, it is simply beautiful. $1395.

Anya Hindmarch Janie Clutch, Handbag of the Day

by Sandy Maple (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

This is not your average metallic bag. The fabric is called 'broken mirror' and the look is dramatic. Made from crackled calf leather, the stunning pewter fabric is repeated on multi-faceted 'gems' and again on the frame. You can never have too much of a good thing, right? The kiss-lock closure features pewter colored balls in a silver setting and the whole package is like a gorgeous piece of jewelry. $385.
