[ LV crush ]

I'm usually not crazy about the LOUIS VUITTON bags... I like them on other people, 

but I never felt the need of getting one myself.

Now this little beauty is an exception - I would die for this LV-bag!! 

It's one of these items you just know in an instant that you really really want it!

The new "Willow" collection from MULBERRY looks fabulous!

...named after a Mulberry home factory - "The Willows" (UK).

The bags are produced in British factories and available in calf, alligator & ostrich (oversized/regular/small totes, oversized/regular clutches).
Beautiful!

[ BALLWIN ]

When i think of ISABEL MARANT accessories... the first thing that comes to my mind is her incredible cool footwear collection. Wedge sneakers, fringe boots, embroidered pumps....

so obviously it's very exciting to see a bag to complete the whole story.

And obviously, Isabel Marant is not the one to disappoint us (!).....

[ POUCH PYTHON by Proenza Schouler ]

You have to check out the "new arrivals" at PROENZA SCHOULER... some very exciting things to discover, including this amazing PS1 Pouch Python in black.

Doesn't this bag look absolutely amazing?

WwwooOOOooowww!

[ be my PANDORA ]

As much as I love GIVENCHY, for quite some time I was a little bit sceptical about the PANDORA MESSENGER bag. But the longer I see it the more I start to like it... I actually start to LOVE it!!

Especially this one in croc-stamped leather. Cute.

I guess I put this one on my wish list ;)

[ rockstud ]

VALENTINO's "rockstud" bag line can't go unnoticed. Love it or hate it. There was a moment I thought I'm over studs... but I really like these bags, it's not too aggressive & since the bags look so chic the studs give them a nice "edge", a little bit of rock'n'roll! I could definitely see myself wearing one ;)

[ hola HOLOGRAPHIC! ]

PROENZA SCHOULER is so good in bringing up something super exciting.... and here we go:
Style.com tweeted these pictures from their visit to the PROENZA SCHOULER Resort 2013 Preview - HOLOGRAPHIC PS11 bags!! Wow.
Other designers experimented with Holographic accessories before... Hussein Chalayan did it (click here), as well as Theysken's Theory (click here)... but Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez are so unbelievably good in what they are doing & got me completely hooked on the idea of carrying a shiny/psychedelic bag! Can't wait to see one for real.

[ personalized CHANEL ]

Last night a friend of mine has sent me this picture... she was reading about the post "I see CRYSTAL CLEAR" featuring a CHANEL bag and wrote me back "I've got the same bag!".
Obviously I needed proof ;) 
So here her version of the transparent CHANEL: "I've put stickers to hide a little bit what I put in the bag..." she wrote.
Not sure I would dare to decorate a Chanel with stickers, but then again I think it only makes it more valuable & personal... I love it! 
Thank you for the picture, Sani!

[ REECE HUDSON ]

Clutches & pouches are my most favorite bag shape... and a good way to give your poor shoulders a rest from carrying heavy bags! Also, it kind of forces you (in a good way) to take only your essentials with you... ;)

Love the new collection from REECE HUDSON - click here. Amazing pieces!

[ oh CONSTANCE! ]

The HERMES "Constance" is my bag crush.... for ages & forever!! There is something about it I can't explain...

[ MINI satchel - BIG love ]

3.1 PHILLIP LIM - Pashli Mini Satchel - available at shopbop

[ a little touch.... ]

I'm often impressed what a (little) piece of leopard print can do... it adds instantly a cool touch to any outfit, don't you think?
But with or without the print, with this bag nobody can go wrong ;)
