Plenty Of Animal LV Handbags But Many Of Them Have A Less Aggressive

We’ve been obsessed with bag deals all week long (or for the last 10 days, actually – I still have fond memories of Memorial Day’s sale codes), but that doesn’t mean we’re ready to quit just yet. Since it’s Friday and all, we re-shopped all the sales we looked at earlier this week and found some exciting things. First and foremost, both Net-a-Porter and Neiman Marcus have added additional bags to their sale sections, which happened much quicker than it usually does. If you didn’t see exactly what you were looking for the first time, maybe look again. Second, the SSENSE sale is now on, so if you like designers that are a little more fashion-forward, you’re going Louis Vuitton India Online Shoppingto want to head directly there. Still not sure where to go? Check out our roundup of the best discount bags around, after the jump.Love her or not, Rihanna seems to be on all of our screens at all times. The singer makes waves for everything from her musical career to her personal life to her fashion sense, and we are there to follow along. While I’ve been known to jam out to a Rihanna song or two, I mostly love following what the singer is wearing; she goes from edgy to downright out-of-this-world. Even though she has a closet filled with special pieces and designers sending her things hand over fist, Rihanna seems to really love her Celine Roll Clutch and has been spotted carrying it countless times, to different events and with different ensembles.We already covered Rihanna with this clutch, but at the time we didn’t realize just how much she would love it. I can see why she does – the oversized shape gives plenty of room to carry the necessities and the roll top helps the design stand out. Since Rihanna loves wearing black, adding a sultry red accessory really helps everything stand out that much more. If you are looking for a Celine bag, try your luck at Portero.

My feelings (and most of yours) about Saint Laurent’s venture into handbag design under new creative director Hedi Slimane have been mixed, but the Lulu is probably my favorite of the nascent range. It feels modern, it has a bit of signature hardware that matches that overall feeling, and the combined effect features just the right amount of restraint. It’s not too minimal, and it’s not too obviously inspired by something else. Even though these bags are quite similar, the curvy hardware and braided texture of the Maiyet option lends itself to a more bohemian aesthetic, while the Saint Laurent bag feels more fashion-forward. Because of that, the Saint Laurent bag wins my heart, but we want to know which bag you prefer in the comments.When I first saw the Maiyet Sophie Shoulder Bag, I spent a couple hours turning it overLouis Vuitton UK Sale in the back of my mind, trying to remember what exactly it reminded me of. There was something about the hardware, but I couldn’t exactly place why it seemed familiar. Finally, it hit me – it was like a curvier, more detailed version of the clean, modern Saint Laurent Lulu Shoulder Bag.Do not adjust your television set. There is nothing wrong with your web browser. Your eyes do not deceive you, today’s featured bag-loving celeb is…a man. And what a man! Here’s Hugh Jackman in full-on Wolverine mode, tossing his Louis Vuitton Damier Graphite Keepall Bandouliere 55 Bag into a taxi in NYC. A hot man with a hot designer bag…ladies, don’t be alarmed if your panties suddenly burst into flames. You can get this versatile Louis Vuitton piece for $1,600 at Louis Vuitton.I far prefer this LV bag to the traditional monogrammed pieces we’ve seen on PB in recent weeks. While all Vuitton’s travel pieces are unisex (in theory), this bag is certainly masculine enough to compete with Hugh’s rippling biceps. The checkered Damier Graphite pattern is far more unassuming, and the print doesn’t even scream Louis Vuitton quite so loudly (though the full LV name is certainly on there). It looks less like a flashy status symbol, and more like a high-end gym bag. And what could be manlier than that?

We’ve spent the past few days in a frenzy of markdowns, seasonal sales and coupon codes, and now that we feel like we’ve scoured every corner of the Internet for great discount handbags, we figured that it was time to take a breather and see where things stand right now. Based on the rate at which the most lust-worthy designer bags have been disappearing from the sale pages of retailers left and right, we know that someone out there, possibly several someones, is buying things, and we want to hear about it.As for me, I’ve been hedging my bets and watching this Kenzo Patchwork Leather and Twill Shoulder Bag. For me, sales are always the time that I jump on something a little bit fun and different, and a bag that combines white leather, bright leopard print and tiger-striped faux raffia definitely fits that description. At 40% off, Hermes Handbags Canadait comes out at an easy-on-the-wallet price of $480, but I can’t help but wonder if it’ll get a second markdown if I wait just a bit longer. Of course, that’s also a good way to miss out on a great deal, so I might go ahead and pull the trigger on this cute summer shoulder bag. It’s still up in the air.Also, which sale has been your favorite? I’m partial to the Barneys sale because of the store’s great assortment of designers, but if you’re looking for the biggest selection overall, Neiman Marcus seems to be where it’s at. Contemporary your thing? Nordstrom and ShopBop killing it. The most well-edited selection? Gotta be.We talk about this from time to time, but there is perhaps nothing more difficult in handbag design than creating an attainably priced bag that looks as conspicuously expensive as the ultra-premium bags that contemporary customers lust after. Someone willing to pay $500 for a purse is likely well aware of what a $1,500 bag looks and feels like, after all, which creates an extraordinary balancing act for designers who come in at a three-figure price point. Perhaps no one is making that balancing act look easier right now than Z Spoke Zac Posen.
