Designers Handbags

From hobo to clutch, this exotic designer handbag is sure to get your head turning. Hot from the Spring 2007 Runway, the Nuti Ostrich Hobo shows off black ostrich which is offset with tonal top stitching and silver tone hardware. Everything about this handbag screams hot. The only addition that I could see anyone questioning is the metallic wire ring on the front, but I think it perfectly accompanies the bag. The inside is lined with orange suede and there is a small interior zip pocket. Dimensions are 5″H x 9 3/4″W x 2″D. Super exotically-hot via Neiman Marcus for $1600.

While browsing through my own site, I realized a lack in spring and summer colors. Shocked, I started to wonder if I am feeling downtrodden, and being drawn to such dark colors. But honestly, browse the handbags out there, there are tons of dark shades. Blame it on fall and winter and the fashion world always selling a season ahead of time. To refresh all of your memories that it is indeed spring and nearly summer, the Gustto Large Parina Hobo is available in a scrumptious sky blue or white with lambskin leather. Laid back, lady-like, and some other great l-word, sums up this upcoming designer bag. Yellow gold hardware is not overpowering, but perfectly fitting along with the drawstring top and front zip pocket. Doesn’t this just scream summer? Measurements make it perfect for an everyday bag, 15″H x 18″W x 3 1/2″D. While not super cheap, this designer bag is under $1000 and even under $700. Perfect. Via Bergdorf Goodman for $625.

I am a fan of black and white, but sometimes the colors can be overpowering when put together on one surface. Is this the case on the Be & D Crawford Hobo Bag? This handbag sports black and white zigzag pattern on the already known Crawford Hobo shape along with a leather shoulder strap. Paired with brass hardware and rivets along the strap, this handbag has a funky flair. Not much else to this large hobo other than suede lining and a press stud closure. Via Net A Porter for $1545. What do you all think?

Not only do I love Derek Lam clothing, but Derek Lam handbags are making quite a splash in the world of accessories. Personally, I am developing a crush on the Derek Lam Hildegard Hobo Handbag. Love the removable shoulder strap, love the supple white leather, love the pleats, and love the Aires ring on the front. Can you dig it? The price is not as amazing, but if you want a white bag and have a bit of extra cash, why not splurge a bit. Via Luisa via Roma for approx $2026.

NUTI is known for impeccable Ostrich that can make any woman swoon. This creamy Pirite Ostrich bag is accented with two gold ruthium rings. Named the NUTI Sevillana, this handbag can also be referred to as an East/West hobo and prides itself in being a perfect size, shape, color, and material for any woman. On the inside, signature orange lining is found alongside inner pockets for storing your essentials. Measurements are 18″ w X 13″ l X 3 1/4 deep with an approximately 5″ drop for the shoulder strap. The words that I hate to see after a bag I year for are “out of stock”, but I am sure Lux Couture will get you on a list or take care of you the best they can (GREAT customer service there!!!!).
