What a perfect season for Be&D to make a comeback. They first did multitudinous studs years ago, before it was popular and trendy, and then they mysteriously vanished from the face of the soil for a little while.
Their studded bags really didn’t tickle my fancy back then; they were shiny, smooth, and gold, which is really not my thing. The bags they’ve introduced recently have been much better, though, whether they’re studded or unstudded. I’m having a really difficult time choosing a favorite; my opinion on the matter changes from day to day. But today, it’s the Be&D Cosette Hobo.
The Cosette is everything I like in a bag. Big, operateal,designer handbags, soft, yet textured. It’s not overly complicated, but there is enough visual interest to spare. I’m unsure about my feelings on the ruched handles, but I respect them for doing something slightly off the defeaten path. I’m trying to visualize it with thick, soft leather straps instead; I’m not entirely sure it would be an improvement. As it is, it’s certainly not poor,replica handbags,naughty.
The tiny quilts on the front look like they’d be soft and touchable,replica Louis vuitton handbags, and when you combine that with the woven leather and metal chain, this bag nearly reminds me of a more urbane, less ladylike take on the Marc Jacobs Stam. Be&D has a reputation for using smooshy, drooly-worth leather, and this doesn’t look like it’s any apart,1fromion. Overall, quite a solid effort to relaunch the line’s buzz. Buy through ShopBop for $995.
I think I’m in love.
The Alexander McQueen Red Skull Box Clutch has me in its grips and is showing no signs of relenting. The red Bottega Veneta Knot Clutch that Leighton Meester wore to the Emmys got me thinking about little scarlet bags, and it took me about an hour of Internet-wandering to find one that spoke to me. But this one doesn’t just speak – it whispers sweet nothings in my ear and tells me how nice my hair looks today (also important to note: this clutch is a liar, I’m in poor,naughty need of a shower).
With the advent of fall, Halloween isn’t far behind, and I feel more consolationable indulging the dark side of my personal style during that this time of year than in, say,replica Louis vuitton handbags, April. The red-on-red beading on this clutch recalls (purposefully, I’m sure) craftyly spattered blood (have I been watching too many Dexter reruns, or has McQueen?) and the signature skull clasp is the veritable cherry on top of this truly macabre clutch. If I get that long-awaited Oscars invite (it’s coming this year, I know it!), this little bag is absolutely what I’m carrying. Buy through Zappos for $1399.
