Fall FunTop 7 Designer Handbagsby Cynthia Nellis If you are really into fashion, you'll know the feeling: lusting madly over a gorgeous new designer handbag each season. We're not talking about logo standbys, but really fun, fresh handbags that will absolutely complete your wardrobe. All of this fashion doesn't come cheap, though, so choose wisely. Beware wild prints or colors that you'll get tired of easily; look for newness in bold hardware (gold!), strong shapes (forget about slouchy hobos) and color (metallics, turquoise, pink, coral). The hardware! The straps! The structured shape! The colors! The cute little heart! This is THE perfect handbag for right now (perfection doesn't come cheap -- $399 for the mini and up) In luggage or lime, this studded satchel from MICHAEL Michael Kors is luxe on a (relatively) smaller budget (under $300). Edgier than your average clutch bag (who would expect any less from Versace?), this silver bag comes diamante detailing. A wearable white bag from fashion photographer Monica Botkier has a boho touch with a fringe. A high profile bag from Balenciaga that comes in lots of color choices. Dangling charms and a slouchy hobo in pretty pastels are perfect for warmer weather. Christian Dior's leopard print bag and metal logo is not for the faint of heart: it's ultra glam |
