Snobgrams – Sep. 11, 2013
From shows to shopping, see what the Snobs have been up to during New York Fashion Week…
Balenciaga Padlock Envelope Clutch: Compact Crusader
I’ve been all about the envelope clutch lately. Credit Fashion Week! In all the hustle and bustle of the crowds rushing from show to show, sleek and chic is best. Varying textures on this Balenciaga (smooth and lizard textured leather surround the center canvas panel) give it depth and serious sophistication, but ultimately, it’s very versatile.
Frugal Snob: Diane von Furstenberg 440 Envelope Clutch
A truly great Frugal Snob bag is hard to find, and yet here one is staring us right in the face! Named for the address of DVF’s chic NYC HQ, the 440 clutch is sleek through and through from the envelope shape to the tastefully embossed logo to the bold enamel bar closure. Don’t worry about running out of space, though – the bag has more than enough room for nights (or days) when you’re trying to travel light.
Azzedine Alaïa Bi-Color Laser-Cut Leather Tote: Buckets of Fun
This just might be the cutest bag ever. Most “bucket bags” aren’t actually buckets…but this one is, literally.
Victoria Beckham Medium Leather Bag: Beckham’s Got the Blues
If you ask me, sometimes the most sumptuous bags are the simplest. After all, why reinvent the wheel when you can just showcase great quality and true luxury?
Innies, Luxury Bag Pillows: It’s What’s Inside that Counts
Okay, the outside of our bag is really the important part, but what you do to protect that from the inside is much more crucial than you’d think. Let a bag to sit on its own and the leather will eventually lose its shape, leaving it looking sad and neglected.
