Chain Strap Archives

Our thumbs are up for Michelle Trachtenberg’s outfit at the premiere of the documentary film Bully held at the Crosby Street Hotel in New York City last Sunday (March 11). The Gossip Girl star had on a little black dress but she blew us away with how she accessorized her outfit. Everything–from her chain necklace to her studded booties–is perfect. Our fave: her oversized clutch.

The clutch is by Stella McCartney. Here’s the same clutch in a different color, available in Bergdorf Goodman:

Stella McCartney Falabella Chain Trim Bag

The Stella McCartney Falabella is a tweed clutch that has a bit of shimmer. It has the classic clutch silhouette but the chain trim and the logo medallion add an edgy feel to the purse. The bag has a flap that closes with a magnetic snap button. It is made in Italy and retails for $1, 135. The same bag is also available in Saks Fifth Avenue.

Miu Miu Woven Bags from Bergdorf Goodman

Our featured brand for today is Miu Miu. Miu Miu, the offshoot of fashion powerhouse Prada, only made its debut in 1993, but it’s already considered a very strong global brand today.

Below are two woven bags from Miu Miu that are available in Bergdorf Goodman. These woven purses are both perfect for summer:

Miu Miu Intreccio Shoulder Bag

The Miu Miu Intreccio Shoulder bag costs $1,495. It is made of multi-color leather. The bag has a removable jeweled strap, so you can turn the purse into a clutch.

 

Miu Miu Leather Trim Straw Tote

The Miu Miu Leather Trim Straw Tote is made of natural straw. You can choose between white and navy blue leather trim. The bag retails for $950.

Do you own any Miu Miu bags? What do you think of the brand?

Wicked Wicker: Kate Spade Purses in Bright Colors

When we say wicked, we totally mean ‘cool’ wicked and not ‘bad’ wicked.

We know not everyone loves wicker, but we can’t imagine anyone not finding these Kate Spade bags in bright colors adorable. They’re the perfect bag to carry this season. They totally scream summer!

Kate Spade Weaved Wicker Purse in Hot Pink

These Kate Spades are pretty tasteful for wicker. The best part about these bags? They’re currently on sale at Zappos for just $275.

If you need a bag with more room inside, we suggest you purchase one (or both) of these other Kate Spade wicker purses:

Kate Spade Wicker Box Purse in Hot Pink

We like the Kate Spade Eastward Avenue Quinn in Hot Pink best. We’re loving not just the bag’s color but also its interior. Take a peek inside:

It doesn’t hurt that the Quinn is cheaper than the Jessa purses. The Kate Spade Eastward Avenue Quinn is on sale at $260.
