Designers Handbags

After a brief dalliance with Pierre Hardy, it looks as though Cameron Diaz has returned to her true love: Marc Jacobs (what, you were thinking JT?). And judging by this ultra-chic and sophisticated Marc Jacobs Venetia Bag, who can blame her? The gray leather purse looks fabulous with her slip dress (if a bit monochromatic), and it’s upscale without looking flashy or pretentious. I love the gold hardware on the two front pockets and the arrow-shaped buckles. Bonus: This handbag can go almost anywhere. Photo from PopSugar.com.

Messenger bags seldom interest me…unless of course they’re designed by Marc Jacobs and feature totally stylish art deco stones on the front. This Marc Jacobs Stones Joseph Messenger combines impeccable craftsmanship (just take a look at that beautiful soft grained leather, in black or bisque), a luxury aesthetic, practicality, and that elusive fashiony eccentricity. While the bag is stunning on its own, the stones give it style and personality. Heck, even if you can’t afford this baby perhaps you’ll be inspired to tack on some brooches to the purses you already own. $2,175 at Barneys.com

This tote caught my eye primarily for the luscious orange color. But color alone can’t justify the $1395 price tag, so what else does this bag offer besides a high-end label? The answer is – not much. Made from cotton linen and trimmed in orange leather, it’s a simple large tote like any other. I do like the way the top snaps in to adjust the width, but other than that and the detachable 45″ shoulder strap, it is rather unremarkable. Pretty color, though!

As soon as I saw this fabulous bag I just fell in love with it. It is the new Stam Patchwork bag from Marc Jacobs and it’s so luxurious and beautiful! It is made from cream leather in a patchwork style with a gold chain and gold hardware. The bag can be carried in the hand by the leather handle or can be placed over the shoulder using the longer gold chain.

It has a zipped pocket at the front and a gorgeous grey cloth interior, it’s the bag I’ve always dreamed of – shame it costs 895! Available at Net-a-porter for all you lucky ladies who can afford this dream bag.

Be one of the first to get your hands on one of Marc Jacobs’s sumptuous fall 2007 designs. The Ines Leather Patchwork Handbag is unmistakably MJ, from the luxurious quilted leather down to the hefty gold hardware. This neutral color, called Peanut, is both glamorous and low-key at once. Not surprisingly, it’s also as useful as it is attractive – it’s got front and back exterior pockets, and it’s divided into two spacious interior compartments, each containing even more pockets. This purse is definitely on my must-have list. Available to pre-order for $1395 at Neiman Marcus.
