Alright ladies! Raise your hand if it reached 50 degrees outside for the first time since December 1st in your area? It has here! Wow… all that snow out there if finally melting, the birds are singing, and it even rained (yes, rained) last night! I have been suffering from an extremely bad case of Spring Fever since, well, since Thanksgiving. And now, finally, I think I may have been cured!
So now it’s time to start making those wholesale designer handbags summer plans! To start, I think a new beach tote is in order. What about this new Juicy Couture Sunrise Tote?
I really love the metallic croc-embossed finish and over-sized rope handles. Plus the chain and spring-clasp closure is really cool (although I’m not exactly sure how it works)! This bag has a nautical theme, but with a modern twist. Its jumbo size is perfect for carrying everything you need for a day of fun in the sun. But it isn’t too beachy-looking for use as a shopping tote either. This tote is all about being care-free and it would definitely jazz up your summer wardrobe. And for less than $200, you will have plenty of money left over for a new swimsuit and pair of shades!
The Juicy Couture cheap designer wholesale handbags Sunrise Tote measures 16″ x 18″ x 8″. Find it at Shopbop.com!

Jimmy Choo Zulu Sequined Gem Clutch
When it comes to clutches cheap designer handbags wholesale and evening bags, there are two features that I absolutely love: Color and sequins. And if it happens to be over-sized too? Bonus!!! So when I saw the new Jimmy Choo Zulu Sequined Leather Clutch, I was simply mesmerized. This clutch looks absolutely gorgeous in the modeling picture. And it looks especially lovely paired with that simple black dress!
I think what I like so much about this clutch is the very interesting use of sequins that was employed. From a distance, the little blocks of color almost look like stones adorning the exterior of the bag. But each of these “stones” is actually a zillion little sequins meticulously sewn into place. Puffy quilting of the leather exterior is what gives these “stones” their three-dimensional appearance.
This is definitely cheap wholesale designer handbags something I have never seen before! And although it looks a bit odd at first, especially when viewing it up close, it really does start to grow on you. Well, at least it has for me! So if you’re looking for something unique to spice up your favorite Little Black Dress, then I would definitely recommend giving this clutch a second look! It would certainly make an excellent conversation piece!
Find the Jimmy Choo Sequined Leather Clutch at Net-A-Porter! It retails for $995.
Marc by Marc Jacobs Hexi Lafayette Hobo
With all of the weird and wacky designs that I have seen by Marc Jacobs over the years, it is not surprising that I have become somewhat desensitized. Whether it’s the quirky Miss Marc or splashes of neon colors, Marc Jacobs has never been afraid of thinking outside the box. I really admire him for his creativity and boldness. But this appreciation that I have for the Marc by Marc Jacobs line never really prepared me for what I stumbled upon the other day. Can you believe it? A very, very normal-looking handbag has made its way into Marc Jacobs’ diffusion line.
Introducing the Marc cheap wholesale fashion handbags by Marc Jacobs Hexi Lafayette Hobo! This lovely bag features a classic hobo shape and signature turnlock closure. I really love the washed leather, which appears to have been polished to give it a gentle sheen. The shape of the bag has been accented beautifully with asymmetrical seams.
Oddly enough, it is this feature that reminds me of Kooba. Hmm… a Marc by Marc Jacobs bag that sort of looks like a Kooba? Sweet! And although this may not be the first normal-looking bag to be featured under the Marc by Marc Jacobs name, it certainly is the most beautiful. Well, okay, the most beautiful I have seen anyway! I think it would cheap designer purses wholesale make a wonderful everyday bag and it is certainly worth a second look!
The Marc by Marc Jacobs Hexi Lafayette Hobo can be found at Saks Fifth Avenue! It is currently available for Pre-Order in Storm Cloud!
Bottega Veneta Braided Leather Hobo
Luxury fashion leader Bottega wholesale discount handbags Veneta has got something more than a luscious oversized hobo this season. It’s called the Braided Leather Hobo, and its appearance is quite unusual compared to their other classic releases. The Italian house presents this grained leather bag that lacks the infamous braiding throughout, but instead, the detailing is found at its edges. Opened at the top for quick access to your essentials and containing a single leather shoulder strap for comfort carrying, Veneta really lives up to its name with there everyday hobos.
As mentioned before, this specific discount wholesale handbags hobo arrives with a modern twist. Just take a look at the eye-catching hues this sculptured hobo arrives with. A bright shade of Dark Green is so striking; it’ll intimidate your typical colored handbags. This shade makes a perfect year round piece, as it’ll add a great finishing touch to any outfit. Bottega Veneta knew that such a stunning piece had to house a striking interior as well, so the House agreed to a pop of purple suede lining, which I absolutely love. Such a fun color combination plus its ideal for everyday wear. If you love this style, but are not too fond of the daring colors, you can find this classic hobo in timeless black as well.

Sara Berman Decca Midi Studded Slouch Bag
I stumbled across the most beautiful bag today. It is such a lovely piece, I just had to share it with all of you. And here it is! Introducing the Sara Berman Decca Midi Studded Slouch Bag! Yes, yes… I know. When the heck did Sara Berman add handbags to her collection? Well, it turns out her handbags made their debut for the Spring/Summer 2010 Collection wholesale handbags online. So this was a very recent development! And boy, what a development it was!
I am simply in love with this bag! I like the puffy hobo shape and how the shoulder strap is one continuous piece with the body of the bag. It is sort of like a sling style, but without that deflated look. Plus the pleats at each side add some extra softness to the look. This softness was then paired with some hard-edged details — distressed leather and studs. And when I say studs, I really mean studs! An array of gold tone studs both large and small, polished and brushed, flat and domed to be exact! These studs can be found adorning the edges of the shoulder strap and the bottom of the bag. But wait… isn’t a stud encrusted bottom a little Alexander Wang-ish? Perhaps. But I think in this case, the studs are different enough that there won’t be too many cases of mistaken identity. Sara Berman really pulled this look wholesale bag store off well!

Marc by Marc Jacobs Dogs of Marc Packable Shopper
Marc, Marc, Marc… you’re at it again, aren’t you? But if there’s one thing I love about Marc Jacobs, it’s his quirky and imaginative designs. And that is exactly what we have here! Meet the Marc by Marc Jacobs Dogs of Marc Packable Shopper! It’s one of several packable totes that are new for Fall 2010. They were designed to be tucked away with ease and then open to hold all of your purchases while you are out shopping. Some of the totes are plain, while others have cute little cartoons printed on them.
Even my favorite gal pal, Miss Marc, is featured in some of the designs! What’s special about this particular tote, however, is its very unique design! The front side of the tote is covered in a collage of canines! And they all have names too! So Marc, who is Duke? Or Sunny? Or Lulu? Or Miles? Were they dogs that you owned at some point? After all, the tote is called “Dogs of Marc”! But the only canine companions I am aware of are Alfred and Daisy, Marc Jacobs’s two bull terriers. Oh well, this packable tote is still a delight! And if you happen to be a dog lover, then this is definitely a must-have for you!

Green With Envy: Prada Vitello Shine Satchel
With the Fall season coming, I’m looking for a new color palette. Rich plums, deep blues, subtle grays, and even forest green. This apple-ish green shade is a real surprise, but somehow it works! The fabulous house of Prada never fails to come up with something a little bit different and interesting.
The Prada Vitello Shine Satchel follows the current trend of satchel styles with lots of “pop”. Smaller in size than the working satchel, it’s 10″ x 9″ x 7″ size is simply perfect for day to day useage. The square-ish shape is softened with rounded corners and is a great silhouette that mixes the styling of lady-like doctor’s bags with a bit of edge. Two outside pockets provide design interest and functionality. A long adjustable strap with 14″ to 18″ drop provides a comfortable hands-free option to the lustrous, rolled double-handles.
This bag features a gold-tone hardware which surprises me that it works so well with the green, but I think it’s the better choice over silver in this instance. The leather is subtly distressed for further styling interest. The roomy interior features signature jacquard lining and zippered pocket. Metal feet protect the bottom of this fun little bag.
What I love about this shade is how easily it translates with denim, navy, black, charcoal and other great fall shades this season. Pair it with a great plum sweater and it really shines!

Lady Dior Cannage
It’s the lovely Top Handle Lady Dior tote, a true beauty with tasteful detailing brought to you by the famous French house of Christian Dior. I’ve always admired the House and their classic and feminine accessories, though I feel like this ladylike style although attractive, wouldn’t suit my personal style. When this specific style first premiered seasons back, my first impression was “how lovely”, but now with a splash of bold colors to choose from, I find this look much more intriguing.
The Cannage signature stitching and logo charm-carrying tote now arrives in the perfect high glossy finish of patent leather with the option of four colors to choose from. Pick your favorites from classic white or striking black, or skip on over to the latest hues of earthy khaki or vibrant sapphire. Whichever gem makes your pick, you’re bound to be Fall ready with one of these dangling off the crook of your arm.
Do realize that this boxy tote features unusual top handles that may feel uncomfortable after a while, but can be easily taken care of with the aid of a detachable shoulder strap which arrives with this bag. With a $2,250 price tag, I’d rather invest on something roomier, but if this medium size does it for you, discover the patent or the classic calf leather Lady Dior tote through: Saks Fifth Avenue

Bethenny Frankel’s Weekender Bag
‘Bethenny Getting Married?’ reality star and mom, Bethenny Frankel, has become quite the fan of celebrity makeup artist Sonia Kashuk’s affordable diffusion line for Target. Recently spotted, she was all smiles while heading home with her bubbly-dot retro travel companion. The other bag that’s hiding in the picture (because I know you’re dying to know!) is her lovely white Hermes Birkin.
The Sonia Kashuk weekender is the perfect size for an overnighter or carry-on, plus it comes with a trio of convenient makeup and toiletry bags.. a steal for just under $40 over at Target.
Bag Trend: the vibrant designer logo
When I ran into Moschino’s white canvas signature bag, the first thought that came through my mind was that I’ve seen colorful signature handbags before. I don’t know who can claim to be the originator of the vibrant logo idea, but obviously, the trend keeps on going. So these two pieces by two different Houses are not absolutely identical, but you can’t miss the close resemblance they share; they’re like cousins!
But the question here isn’t who copied who, but more like, which colorful signature print handbag would make your pick? They both share a hobo-ish style with a single strap and a “handy” body strap to convert into an even more comfortable style. Canvas and leather seems to be found in the identical places on both, even the retail price tags seem to be closely related, that’s $278 for Coach and $295 for Moschino (Moschino bag now reduced 20% to $236).
Don’t get fooled by fall accessories just yet, the way the national temperatures have been on the hotter side of the range, you still have a couple more weeks to sport around a funky cool handbag that’s still on summer mode.
Find the Moschino bag here at shop Bluefly.
Or get your Coach multicolor on via Nordstroms!

Lockheart Shelby Satchel
It seems to me that Lockheart has created a bit of a sore spot here at Bag Bliss. First, Deysa wrote about the over-the-top braiding on the Lockheart Cadence. And now, I am bringing everyone’s attention to the Lockheart Shelby Satchel.
Now I’m not saying that I hate this bag. In fact, there are quite a few things that I have found myself admiring about it. I just love the domed satchel shape. It is unmistakably classic, yet unique at the same time. The front flap pockets are so cute, as are the double handles with their buckle detail. The main compartment opens up super wide, making it easy to look inside and examine contents. And did I mention that this bag is made of lambskin leather? Mmmm, yummy! And then… there’s the pleats. Normally, I am crazy for pleats. I think they look absolutely gorgeous on handbags, softening silhouettes and giving interest to otherwise plain designs. So what’s the problem with the pleats on this particular style? Not to sound too harsh, but they sort of remind me of the lining of a coffin. Perhaps it is because they were created so neatly and precisely. I guess when I think of pleats, I don’t think of formal patterns and hard edges. However, I think it is great that Lockheart is trying to think outside of the box. The use of pleats here is actually quite creative and I have to give them credit for that. This bag would be perfect for someone who really likes bold patterns and it would make a great alternative to a geometric print.
Find the Lockheart Shelby Satchel at Muse Ten, where it is currently available in Mulberry (shown) or Black.
3.1 Phillip Lim Berry Stud Wristlet
3.1 Phillip Lim has come up with some interesting looking bags lately. My favorite being, of course, the Edie Bow Bag (okay, not a brand new style, but still pretty darn cool!). But here’s something that I don’t normally think of when I think of this line — a wristlet! Introducing the 3.1 Phillip Lim Studded Berry Wristlet! It’s a tiny package that packs quite a punch!
Oddly, if it wasn’t for the all-over studs having a distinctive cone shape, I would have sworn that this wristlet was one of Alexander Wang’s creations. After all, he really likes to crowd the surface of a bag with lots and lots of chunky studs! But you know what, I think Lim does the whole stud thing pretty well. They are the same kind of studs found on my beloved Edie Bow Bag, but they are arranged in a tight grid pattern.
All of this on a slightly metallic, silver suede background! Pretty! And if you’re not in the mood for a funky wristlet, you can remove the strap and use this baby as a compact wallet. Duel zip-around compartments conceal credit card slots, bill compartments, and a coin pocket. Everything you would find in a regular wallet (minus, perhaps, a checkbook cover) can be found right here! Perfect for a minimalist’s night out or a fun surprise inside your everyday handbag!
Find the 3.1 Phillip Lim Studded Berry Wristlet at SSense!
Thrifty Thrill Alert: Treesje Harlow Clutch!
Treesje handbags have been on my mind a lot lately. I’m talking borderline obsession! But who can blame me? After all, these feelings are perfectly normal. Treesje handbags are so pretty and unique, what isn’t there to love about them? So when I happen to stumble across a good deal on a Tressje handbag, it’s no wonder that I’m practically screaming it from the rooftops! And that is exactly what’s going on this very moment.
You ladies have got to check out this awesome deal on the Treesje Harlow Clutch! This lovely leather clutch features delicate gathering on both the front and back. The leather appears as though it was pinched, forming a pretty fan-like pattern. And the chain border around the outer edges creates a lovely accent alongside the gatherings.
When it comes to the Treesje Harlow Clutch, I think Laura and Sheila did an excellent job of balancing tough girl-chic with simple elegance. This clutch would be perfect for a casual night out, but it could easily be dressed up by pairing it with a simple black dress. My only regret is that this extra-large clutch doesn’t come complete with a chain strap. Oh well, I guess you can simply think of it as a short magazine clutch!
The Treesje Harlow Clutch measures 13″ x 6″ x 3″ and it is currently available in either Black or Plum. Find it at Bluefly.com, where it is on sale for an unbelievable price! It originally retailed for $385, but here’s your chance to snap one up for only $168!

Introducing Muratori Handbags
I don’t know about you, but I always get super excited whenever a new handbag designer hits the scene. I just love creative new ideas. And, being the environmentalist that I am, I especially love creative new ideas that come about in an eco-friendly manner. That is why I am so proud to present to you Muratori Designs (Luxury… with the World in Mind)! The company was founded by Julie Berard, who was able to align her love of fashion with her respect for nature in order to bring us a unique collection of luxury handbags. So not only are these handbags gorgeous, but they are made by a company that is environmentally conscious as well!
I do want to stress, however, that Muratori handbags are not vegan (like so many other eco-friendly handbags are). Instead, the company utilizes vegetable-tanned, chrome-free leathers. The production process for these leathers is much less harmful to the environment than other leathers. In addition, the linings of these handbags are made of either organic cotton or hemp. But it is also the little things that this company does to lessen their carbon footprint that I think are really cool. Whether it’s using only high efficiency light bulbs or purchasing electricity from renewable green energy sources, they are doing everything they can to help protect the environment. And, as if all of that wasn’t enough, Muratori also has a handbag recycling program!
So I am really encouraging everyone out there to check out these new Muratori handbags. And with Earth Day just around the corner, these beautiful bags are that much more tempting. Below you will find what the young company currently has to offer. I hope you will take the time to check them out! Enjoy!
Petal Hobo
This lovely piece was inspired by Julie’s daughters who love to play with flower petals in the garden. Each petal is individually arranged and hand-stitched. It would be the perfect go-to bag for those casual summer months!
Twiggy Satchel
This satchel somewhat resembles a doctor’s bag. However, it is also very fresh and modern-looking. It would be perfect for either work or play.
Jayne Satchel
A timeless classic, this satchel has a fun little added twist — studded tassels. It would also be perfect for either work or play. It certainly is roomy enough!
Men’s Messenger
Muratori doesn’t just design for women, they also make some nice men’s work bags. This sleek messenger bag would be perfect for the office!
Discover Muratori Handbags at Muratori Designs.
update: Muratori bags are now available online through Endless!!!
French Connection Solar Clutch
The fun thing about a clutch is that you can carry one as loud as your style desires, without looking like a total mess. Compared to a loud day bag, that could take the appearance of beach wear or might come off as too juvenile. Instead, show off the sassy chic in you by busting out a loud and unexpected colorful clutch that is the perfect size to sport with your everyday or even formal wear. The Solar Clutch by French Connection reminds me of something you can find at a stationary or a bathroom décor section of a store, but regardless, it’s adorable.
Fun, oversized colorful spots can be found on a clean white canvas body and the warm touch of a wooden frame adds a great finish to this accessory. Size appropriate for your most basic necessities, if you dare to wear something much larger the same spotted concept can be found in a large braided-handle handbag, but unless you fall into the teen category, I’d stay away from that piece. With a fairly reasonable price tag of $98, this would make a lovely piece to own or to gift. So ladies what’s your input on this piece, fun or too immature?
