Anya Hindmarch Bespoke opens. This is the very reason Anya opened her business to begin with - to create pieces very personal to the clients which could be passed down as family heirloom to their grandchildren. This means, you could have a bag, created just for you, to suit your own needs and taste. The [...]

Will you ever buy a transparent PVC designer bag? Turned out Jimmy Choo made one Ramona and I really dun know what to figure out of this. The Ramona is not exactly a beach bag material to begin with. I will say I love the bright yellow color but the plastic and nylon straps in [...]
This is my Anya Hindmarch “I’m Not a Plastic Bag”. I know that the craze has died down long time ago but this bag is still a keeper to me. Great for carrying groceries for picnic or yatch sailing. I first saw this on US Vogue like months before it was released and was trying [...]
Prada is on hyper expansion mode or what? In Singapore alone, we are waiting for the ION store to open while the Paragon store will get an extension (taking over the YSL space). Miu Miu Paragon will also take Ralph Lauren’s space while the new store just opened in ION. I received an update from [...]
I had always considered the Fendi Secret Code bag as overly trendy and pricey despite the fact that it is unique and extremely well made (trust me, I was given an opportunity to “play” with the bag myself). I am a sucker for anything vintage-inspired and naturally the bag stuck with me but like I [...]
I can’t seem to get this bag out of my head since I first saw it last month at the newly renovated Takashimaya Kate Spade store. It could be the color (beautiful shade of green called Verde) or the shape or the size and the design. The boerum hill-geraldine (I dun like the name tho…) also [...]
This is a simple and beautiful bag perfect for everyday use. Nylon is among the lowest-maintenance materials for bags, also lightweight and durable. The best thing about this bag is it is also comes with detachable shoulder strap and available in 8 beautiful colors to choose from. At USD198 each, it is a steal!! [...]
I am not a big fan of patchworks and studs are so in now they are almost out but this satchel from MICHAEL Michael Kors are somehow impossibly beautiful and more stylish rather than trendy. I think the Astor would still be easy on most eyes even after the studs craze is over. MICHAEL Michael [...]
Almost everyone I know owns a piece or two of Louis Vuitton Monogram or Damier Canvas small leather goods so despite its price tag, it becomes a tacky situation when several people on the same table draw out similar wallets or cardholders at the same time. Once in a while, comes a variation of the [...]
Dear Purseholic
Is Hermes Picotin bag worth buying? With the price I could get a more elaborated bag from another designer.
Jessica in Singapore
Hi Jessica
The thing about Hermes bags is that its price is almost never justifiable for just a bag. I am going to give you the same advice as I have always given when it [...]
The newest Louis Vuitton Mahina Lunar GM is gorgeous with its simply beautiful design and shape perfect for daily use. Vuitton Mahina Lunar is available in two sizes - PM (USD2,330) and GM (USD2,640, featured here). LVOE it!

That is a long and mouthful name for a bag but it is pretty self-descriptive. The bag is available in both silver and gold textured leather. The New Cambridge is a functional daily bag with many zip compartments and this new version just upped the glam factor of what was previously considered a very nice [...]
The Master can go no wrong… Oscar de la Renta is still one of the biggest fashion designers out there. Zac Posen was on the front row. Eyeing for the top job in the house of de la Renta when the time comes? We are not ready for the master to retire yet.

I have been heavily smitten by Derek Lam’s collection for Spring 2010. Beautiful clothes and bags and the shoes that are literally high up there! Go go Mr Lam!!!

Vera Wang, Derek Lam, Alexander Wang and now Joy Gryson, I am feeling a rushing sense of pride being an Asian now. Gryson was born in Korea and raised in NYC. She worked with Marc Jacobs on his accessories line for both Marc Jacobs and Marc by Marc Jacobs before starting her own line of Italian [...]
