Juicy Couture Handbags 01.07.09

From introducing the velour tracksuit pants for women with one word embroidered across the back early in the decade, Juicy Couture has expanded its line to carry menswear, sleepwear, accessories, jewelry, fragrances, kids’ apparel, beauty products, shoes, and their now sought-after handbags.

Juicy Couture handbags are known for their fun, loud and colorful designs, often combining the brand’s logo with various prints and slogans across the bags. Now, with its latest bag offerings, Juicy Couture has taken classic lines in different shapes and sizes, and has stamped them with the brand’s newfound quirky-yet-subtle edge. 

Recently, Juicy Couture’s president, Edgar Huber, has announced at a luxury summit that the brand is boosting the part of its merchandise in the $200-and-below range. Sounds like an even better reason to snag those Juicy Couture handbags! Let us have a quick look into the brand’s stylish offerings, shall we?

juicy couture handbags Juicy Couture HandbagsAmong Juicy Couture’s leather handbag offerings are pebbled leather pieces. The sophisticated Leather China Bag would be one of them. Built with professional women in mind, this piece can be used to carry documents or maybe a small-sized laptop or netbook. It has top handles and a detachable shoulder strap with clasps in gold tone. This zip-top handbag also has the logo and butterfly charms hanging down the pleated front, which lend to its versatility going from day to evening.  The butterfly charms and the chain-and-padlock details are also present in their other leather renditions, which are often available in pink, beige, and black.

Meanwhile, for the more casual-going set, the brand’s more daring designs can still be seen on their velour and terry handbag offerings. A notable piece from their online collection is the Zoe Embroidered No Drama. This piece appeals to those going after the bohemian look, with a wild floral pattern and the word Juicy in script embroidered across the front. 

The brand also offers handbags made of canvas and nylon. Perhaps more than the other handbag selections, canvas pieces feature the slogans that Juicy Couture has been known for. Such lines as “For Nice Girls Who like Stuff” and “From Juicy with Love” are printed across their more affordable canvas totes. Quilted nylon is yet another classic look that the brand has revived for their handbags with a modern flair. Juicy Couture’s Quilted Nylon Laptop Case combines dainty, preppy and functional, with a row of ruffles near the zip top and “Juicy Couture Prep” patches on the front.

Juicy Couture has re-purposed the bowler bag and turned it into a lovable portable home for the cutest dogs. It has the words “Will Beg for Juicy” printed on the front, and comes in pink or black velour. It is also built with a heart-shaped opening on the side for your pet to peek through.

From those early days of sending out their designs to stars like Madonna, Juicy Couture has certainly come a long way. We wish the purveyor of fun, affordable designer couture more years of shaking up the style scene with their delightful handbag offerings.

Lauren Bush’s FEED Bag for Charity 22.06.09

Lauren Bush Launches New FEED Bag for Kenya 
 
Any fashion fanatic may find a sense of accomplishment upon getting herself a well-crafted, functional bag. But it just gets so much better when the purchase of one goes to a worthy cause.

lauren bush feed bag Lauren Bushs FEED Bag for CharityCombining fashion and the passion for giving back to the needy, designer and model Lauren Bush takes the role of activist a step further. An Honorary Spokesperson for the United Nations World Food Program, Lauren is now promoting a new design for her FEED Projects bag initiative. With the mission of coming up with creations that help supply food to those in need from different parts of the world, FEED has geared its new effort towards Kenya, where 10 million people are at risk of starvation due to a food crisis. Together with FEED Projects Director Ellen Gustafson, Lauren recently appeared at Bergdorf Goodman in New York City to launch the FEED 2 Kenya bag. 

This is an exclusive release that will benefit UN World Food Program’s School Feeding operations located in Kenya. A two-time visitor, Lauren has been quoted to say she finds Kenya “inspirational” and strives to mirror the African nation’s culture in her latest design for the program. She has also visited a number of WFP’s food aid operations around the globe.

feed bag 198x300 Lauren Bushs FEED Bag for CharityA purchase of the FEED 2 Kenya bag will not only provide nutrition to school children, but will also support women and deaf bag makers and skilled workers of the African country. The FEED 2 Kenya bag is fully handmade by these artisans. The functional, eco-friendly tote bag features the initiative’s logo rendered in colorful beads. Each piece is beaded by hand, implementing traditional techniques. Kenyan Masai tribal fabric is used together with natural burlap for the creation of this reversible bag, while leather shoulder strap and handles add to this bag a feel of luxury that sets it apart from previous designs released under the initiative. Like the rest of the lineup, the Kenya bag can be a multi-purpose one—for grocery shopping, carrying books to school, or as a beach bag.

FEED 2 Kenya bags will be sold exclusively at Bergdorf Goodman until September of this year. Priced at $195, each bag sold will forward a $100 donation to the UN feeding operation. Every one-hundred-dollar donation will be used to provide nutritious meals to two Kenyan school kids for an entire year. FEED’s current goal is to raise $100,000 to feed two thousand Kenyan children.

While the Kenya bag will only be sold at Bergdorf Goodman stores, other FEED bags are available at other store locations and online via the FEED Projects site, so more fashion-loving ladies can share the love. Since Lauren started the program in 2006, FEED Projects have raised almost $3 million for the World Food Program. The initiative has gained support from various Hollywood celebrities, including Marcia Cross, Drew Barrymore and Elizabeth Berkley, who have been seen sporting the eco-friendly totes. Thanks to compassionate designers like Lauren, giving back will always be in fashion.

Jessica Alba’s Coach Handbag 16.06.09

jessica alba 175x300 Jessica Albas Coach HandbagCoach Penelope Python Clutch

Spotted on sexy celeb Jessica Alba, this vibrant colored clutch is a beauty. Makes for a solid fashion statement – It is a must-have for all bag freaks. Though it does give a very striking appearance with python skin and metallic leather, it is suitable for a fashionable do or a party. Not a day accessory, it has bright colors which would be perfect for your night outs. I didn’t like the way Jessica Alba wore this bag though as it would’ve looked better if she wore it with a sexy dress instead of a long dull looking top.
