Lanvin Ouloulou Satin Pouchette, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags

The Lanvin Ouloulou Satin Pouchette makes us say "Ooh la la!"

There's nothing like peach satin to give an outfit vintage appeal. This pretty pouchette has a hammered satin flap front, a delicate chain-link strap and a grosgrain pompom detail. The button covers a magnetic closure and adds shape to this lovely, peaches-and-cream purse.

Though it's a little pinker in person, this Italian-made bag exudes charm and innocence. The pouchette itself is 6" x 9.5" x 2" and lined in satin, ensuring only the very best treatment for the goodies you put inside it. While this would be difficult to pull off with a contrasting color, we'd love to see this with a little black dress, a little white dress or maybe, maybe a black-and-white pattern.

One extra thing to love about this purse: shiny satin transitions perfectly into the holiday season, and you'll definitely be able to carry this from now until the company holiday party.

The Lanvin Ouloulou Satin Pouchette is available from Barneys for $990.

Proenza Schouler Leather PS1 Pouchette, Handbag of the Day

by Annie Scott (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

The Proenza Schouler Leather PS1 Pouchette is a striking piece for a woman who like practicality to be chic.

Designed like a classic document-carrier, this bag exudes utilitarian charm, but doesn't skim on the style. Firstly, obviously, it's purple, making it an instant standout in any outfit or tucked under any shoulder. The double belting and charmingly rustic foldover closure keep its contents safe, but the jacquard lining and leather trim pocket ensure that this hardworking bag is pretty enough even for ladies of leisure.

It's a tiny little thing, at 11" x 3" x 5.5", and working women will be more likely to use it as a wallet and throw it in a larger bag than use it on its own, but it does make an excellent clutch purse for less-than-formal affairs; a genre for which it can be difficult to dress, let alone accessorize.

We love this shade of violet, the goldtone contrast and especially the belts. We'd be happy to throw our passport and flight itinerary into this. Wouldn't it look fabulous with euros?

The Proenza Schouler Leather PS1 Pouchette is available from Barneys for $895.00.

Filed under: Handbags

The Marc by Marc Jacobs Petal To The Metal Flap Pouchette has a long name for such a small bag, but is undeniably sassy and delightful.

At just 8"W X 7"H X ¼"D, this bag is the perfect size for bouncing on your hip while you run around doing errands in your jeans and boots. The casual stitching, together with the unusual zipper placement, creates an attractive, sexy shape. The pretty goldtone bird makes it feminine and just a little flashy -- enough to catch the eye.

While this isn't the bag to carry to your major holiday events, it's one you can wear everyday and it comes at an exceptional price: just $198.00.

The Marc by Marc Jacobs Petal To The Metal Flap Pouchette is available from Saks Fifth Avenue.

Marc Jacobs Safari Pouchette, Handbag of the Day

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

Yay for zebra print mixed with flirty tassels and a feminine, puffy shape. This is the Safari Pouchette by Marc Jacobs and I love Net-a-Porter's idea of pairing it with a sleek business outfit for a chic punch of energy and style (although it could also work well for a casual party). It's a pony-skin bag with a drawstring closure, accented with tassels galore on blue and bronze rope ends and snake-effect leather flower charms that dangle off the bag's front. Other features include a bright blue leather lining (unusual) with an interior zip pocket. $1,895

Fendi Pouchette Shoulder Bag in Blue, Handbag of the Day

by Annie Scott (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

This delicious little shoulder bag by Fendi, the Pouchette Shoulder Bag is new and only available for pre-order.

The bag is small, just 8.5" by 5", and the "pouched" effect is meticulously crafted to give it dimension and style.

The strap itself is jewelry; a 7" drop with heart charm accents. This season it's all right to wear contrasting metals, so don't worry if you don't have anything to match the exact shade of yellow gold; try copper or white gold to complement it.

The bag is made exclusively in a dark blue, one of this season's hottest accessory colors. Dark blue may seem like a difficult color to manage as an accessory; it can clash with denim and look sloppy with a little black dress. Not to worry, this season, you'll find printed dresses with this color in the pattern and you can always pair it with gray.

Available from Saks Fifth Avenue, $410.

Chlo� Saskia Patchwork Pouchette, Handbag of the Day

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

This Chloé Saskia Patchwork Pouchette is the epitome of summer bags for me because it makes me think of summer smoothies and/or ice cream. And it's so hot as I'm writing this that either of those (or both...) would totally hit the spot right now! Made of leather in shades of white, beige, apricot, and hot pink, it features a large loop handle, logo buckle detail, and a neutral beige lining (bummer, I was hoping for more apricot on the inside) with an interior zip pocket. $1,560

Louis Vuitton Eva Clutch, Handbag of the Day

by Star Sutherland (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

I hadn't loved any of the new Louis Vuitton purses for quite awhile, but that all changed when I laid eyes on the Eva Clutch. The design is inspired by one of my favorite models Eva Herzigova. I'm not sure if "inspired by" means she took part in it's conception, or if by looking at her perfect face someone was inspired to make it...either way this dainty bag is getting my vote for must have Louis of 2008. The clever removable straps allow you to carry it three different ways, using the short chain on your shoulder, using the long strap on your shoulder (which leaves the chain hanging as a decoration), or using the chain around your wrist as a pouchette. I love love love this bag! The Eva Clutch is available online and in select stores (it's selling out quickly, so get on a list) for $530, not bad as far as Louis go.

Louis Vuitton Purple Pouchette, Handbag of the Day

by Nicole Weston (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Gadgets, Handbags

Working with designer Marc Jacobs, the classic Louis Vuitton Pouchette style bag has gotten a bit of a makeover for the summer. The bag is made of silk, printed with a charm bracelet pattern that has the LV logo and other iconic brand shapes. It is coated in vinyl to protect the silk scarf and make it more durable. The leather strap is removable and the bag has a zipper closure. The bag is accessorized with - what else - a small padlock. It does come in brown and white, as well as in fuchsia, for the more conservative dresser, but you may as well have a little fun with a summer bag! Price: $640.
