This is genuine Burberry style. This bowling tote gets freshened up every now and then, and as far as I can remember it always ends up being a hit. It is because of the divinely simple shape which can hold be spiced up with almost any detail immaginable and still look awesome. The slightly gathered front which is featured on this bag always gives bags that beautiful feminine touch, so the only thing left to do is to find a new material, a new color or some interesting detailing, and you’ve practicaly got an instant IT bag that will survive much more than a single season. Speaking of material, this one it is made of leather trimmed to achieve a shiny, glossy look and subtly but noticably perforated which is something I really like in a bag. The pewter color is what I love the most about this bag, it makes it even more stunning, edgy and chic than it was before. Read the rest of this entry »

Miss California 2010 and miss USA 2011 – 21-years-old Alyssa Campanella. Hot or not?

This is wonderful. I have been bumping into really beautiful bags recently, many of which enchanted me from the first glance: there was the chic Diesel hobo in a delicous leather/shiny canvas combination, the uber feminine Prada Cipria Gauffre tote, the Trembled Blossoms bag, also from Prada and the Tod’s Goa pochette that Tina bumped into a few days ago. I have just written a post about Orla Kiely’s new spring arrival – the Flower Box Print shoulder bag, which I was also very delighted with, but all these bags I mentioned are casual, day time bags, and this one is the pure opposite. I kind of missed writing about serious looking, sophisticated type of bags and this is why I decided to go for this one today. Read the rest of this entry »

It takes courage to carry a white bag around becuase they get stained so easily if you are not extra careful, easpecially when it’s an expensive bag or one of your favorites, it becomes impossible to shake off that fear that it will get stained and dirty.. White bags are, as far as I’m concerned, reserved for rare occasions, and they are deffinitely not meant to be carried all the time unless of course, you are super cautious when you carry them… I rarely go for white bags because of that, and even when I decide to go for one, I often end up buying it in some other color regardless of the fact that I liked the white one the most.

-Christopher Bailey does it again! His Fall 2011 Burberry Prorsum collection (right) showed an edgy, goth, warrior princess donned in long, leather gloves; thick, corset belts; high, pointy lace-up shoes or thigh-high, patent boots; zippy but not-too-sporty anoraks; and dark, incarnations of the classic trench. The color palette was primarily black and grey. The silhouettes were slim and the hemlines were high.

A strong, tough, beautiful and elegant collection. As Bailey described it to Style.com’s Sarah Mower, “It’s the same Burberry girl. She’s just rocking a bit more.” She most definitely is! Read the rest of this entry »
