Post #400: A New Handbag Has Arrived

February 7, 2008 by WendyB

I wouldn’t let Henry get close to this new Prada bag because I am dithering about whether to keep it. What to do …. what to do …. “Why do I have to pose with handbags anyway?” Previously, he was allowed to hang out with a Vuitton. “Stephen Sprouse was so genius.” And he got…

Dirt-Cheap Prada

January 15, 2008 by WendyB

This stunning pink crocodile Prada bag is on sale for $6,742, down from $8,990. Maybe some of you want to chip in and get it for me for Valentine’s! Anyone? Anyone? Fine! Be that way. Speaking of sales, do you want to show-cha your chocha just like WendyB in her sequined gold Antik Batik dress?…

Peek Into My Prada

January 12, 2008 by WendyB

Big Glasses Girl and Gnarlitude Jen tagged me to name six things in my handbag. My favorite Prada bag has made an appearance on this blog before. Here it is, enjoying lunch with its identical twin. This bag is roomier than it looks. I’m carrying: 1.The basket of bread from the lunch photo. Why let…

Delicious

October 15, 2007 by WendyB

This Miu Miu shoe is delicious… …and it reminds me of this Bottega Veneta bag, which is also delicious. Pink and red make me think of something else that’s delicious. Excuse me while I go get a snack! While I’m eating, you can read this. Also, here’s a guy who has a sensible response to…

Great Minds Think Alike … About Foldover Bags

September 5, 2007 by WendyB

Bag from Posh Vintage This ’60s foldover clutch from Posh Vintage (above) reminded me of Poppie Couture’s foldovers. The vintage bag is less expensive but the Poppie bags are certainly beautiful. I love the deep red color. Bag from Poppie Couture I feel that I’ve also seen foldover bags with a big ring handle like…

Ahead of My Time, Once Again

August 29, 2007 by WendyB

Ben Widdicombe of the New York Daily News has chimed in on Hogan’s misguided Chrissie Hynde tribute FOUR DAYS after I wrote about it! Better late than never, I guess! Just to refresh your memory, Hogan named a ponyskin bag after Hynde, who is an ardent PETA activist. By the way, I emailed Hogan on…

Chanel Bag

August 28, 2007 by WendyB

If someone were to insist on buying me a luxurious bag right this second, I think I would choose this vintage Chanel: Chanel bag from Vintage Couture I like the boxy shape and the fringe, which reminds me of a cute little beard. Like the beard on a schnauzer, and I mean that in a…

Hogan’s Misguided Chrissie Hynde Tribute

August 25, 2007 by WendyB

I enjoyed reading the New York Times Style Magazine today, especially the unintentionally hilarious item about Hogan’s limited-edition Guitar bags named for various music icons. The ponyskin Chrissie — which the Times says is a tribute to Chrissie Hynde — looks gorgeous. Too bad the formerly leather-pants-wearing Hynde is now a PETA activist! For those…

Something’s Fishy

August 23, 2007 by WendyB

I like fish but I’m a little terrified by these bags…or their handles, to be precise. Vivre suggests that I make this my “signature bag.” I’m afraid I’m going to have to pass on that. However, I still hope I will find the crazy Louboutin fish shoes marked way down to about $100 or so….
