Prada Raso Pleat Clutch

Remember when clutches were just envelopes and plain flat numbers? I love the fact that clutches have come such a long way in innovation for design and function. Well, this isn’t so revolutionary as far as function goes (though it is big at 13″ wide) but I have nothing but love for the design. It’s … Continue reading “Prada Raso Pleat Clutch”

Prada Saffiano Camouflage Tote

I am not one for camouflage. Like, I am the only person I know without camouflage cargo’s. But be still my finicky heart, this Prada camouflage is the bomb!! Why this and no other? This tote is not too military yet it is perfectly styled to sport camouflage with the rigid shape. The handle proportions … Continue reading “Prada Saffiano Camouflage Tote”

Snob or Slob: Malin Akerman in Prada

I wasn’t sold on Prada’s “see-through” bag collection for spring–and now I know why.

What is wrong, however, is the actresses’ wardrobe choice. It doesn’t match the idea behind this … Continue reading “Snob or Slob: Malin Akerman in Prada”

Prada Tessuto Calf Tote

There might be better bags out there but nothing can replace my first love. I feel all warm and fuzzy inside seeing these “vintage” designs. This has updated details (like leather straps, I had a similar bag with nylon straps and grommet holes) but the essence of this look is responsible for Prada’s greatness. The … Continue reading “Prada Tessuto Calf Tote”

Angelina Jolie in Prada Saffiano Lux Boston Bag

I know I must be one of five people, but I find Angelina Jolie‘s style consistently underwhelming – case in point this Prada Saffiano Lux Boston Bag ($1,450). It’s a perfectly nice bag, but not only is it somewhat of a Speedy knock-off, it’s also somewhat of a snooze. I like the hardware and it … Continue reading “Angelina Jolie in Prada Saffiano Lux Boston Bag”
