If you’re already getting your wardrobe ready for spring, here’s a bag that you might want to consider purchasing. It’s a small crossbody bag that would be great for carrying your essential items when you go out for coffee or just spending the day out. It’s from Elliott Lucca.

We found it in Nordstrom.

Elliott Lucca 3-Way Woven Leather Demi Bag

The bag is made of leather woven together to create a textured clutch. The bag also has a braided shoulder strap, offering you different carrying options. It has a top zip closure.

Below are two more pastel options for the bag:

This bag may just be the thing you need to add color to your wardrobe. Imagine carrying this bag with a floral mini or maxi dress.

Dakota Fanning was photographed leaving a Los Angeles gym last Saturday (August 29) with a straw tote from Marc by Marc Jacobs.

The bag, called Rosa tote, is now sold out online. It used to be sold in the following online stores: Shopbop, Endless, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, and Bergdorf Goodman.

If you’re interested in getting a bright colored straw tote, here’s an alternative from the same designer: the Bianca Dreams of Monte Carlo Hayley Tote from Nordstrom:

Here are two other beautiful bags from Neiman Marcus and 6PM:

This one’s our favorite:

Milly Flower Straw Tote

The Milly Flower straw tote is probably too feminine to bring to the gym, but it’s the perfect tote for fun, carefree days when you want to add the perfect accessory to your outfit of sundress and sandals.

If you’re ever in need of a fresh designer fix, I suggest you head over to Barneys and get yourself a Balenciaga Cannage Croc City. It’s pretty much the Balenciaga City in a whole new package – multicolored and woven. Obviously, for the fanatics like us, finding a woven Balenciaga is like finding a treasure.

Balenciaga Cannage Croc City

The Cannage holds a lot of unique charm, especially with its woven and multicolored feature. Up close you will find that the black leather trim is made out of  embossed croc leather while the woven body is in distressed lambskin.  Together, the two elements act like yin and yang. And together, both make the Cannage look very distinct.

Up close and personal

But I guess what ultimately makes this bag a status symbol is its price – a very heavy US$6,795. If you can afford it, feel free to visit Barneys.com and make your purchase.

We can’t give you alternatives today though, because the Cannage is just too unique. So if you can’t afford it, don’t force. Try these more affordable designer bags instead:
