This retro Gucci crossbody bag has my attention –

,A Pashmina Scarf Works All Year Round

No one knows exactly how long the mini crossbody trend will last, but put me on the record as hoping that this shape stays around as a wardrobe staple for years to come. Not only are minibags delightfully functional, but they’re easily modified to embody nearly any style from hippie to industrial. In this case, the mood of the Gucci 1973 Small Shoulder Bag is clear – it’s all about the retro throwback.

This bag comes as no surprise to anyone that saw the looks from Gucci’s Fall 2010 runway show – I would have pegged the look as more late 60s than early 70s, but the retro shapes and color palette were omnipresent throughout the bags featured in the show. The altered Gucci logo is the touch that really completes the look.

My only real criticism of the design is that I wish perhaps more had been done with the chain – a piece of leather where the bag will sit on the shoulder is always an appreciated nod toward utilitarian comfort,Get The Classic Look With A Polka Dot Scarf, but I imagine that this bag was meant to be worn atop a layer or two of cold-weather clothing anyway,mens wallets, making that detail less important. The olive color works beautifully with the gold hardware, and sub-$1000 leather Gucci bags aren’t easy to find as of late. This one might be small,Chanel to open bag exhibit at New York City flagsh, but don’t underestimate its style. Buy through Saks for $760.

Gucci Crocodile Hysteria Bag – PurseBlog

Saturday, July 31st, 2010

gucci-crocodile-hysteria-bag.jpgThe craze over the Gucci USA Flagship opening was unprecedented. Many people wanted to see the store, but most wanted to grab one of the coveted Gucci Loves New York bags. This limited edition line of bags are completely sold out, but the excitement surrounding the store still exists. Today we wound down with a trip to Gucci, as it is about half a block away from our hotel. The store is HUGE. Floor one carried many bags,Coach Amanda Satin Mini Satchel, but floor two and three did not disappoint either. The thing is, lately I have not had much love for Gucci. The brand is one of the most recognized luxury houses in the world, and while their ready-to-wear has been amazing, the handbags have been lacking that special touch that I need. The Hysteria line brings a fresh touch to Gucci, giving it the extra nudge that it needed to get me back on board. The Gucci Hysteria line drops the expected Gucci GG logo and brings in the family crest. The emblem adds the perfect touch that is not expected but much appreciated. And with New York being the new US Gucci flagship, the handbag selection is to die for. I have never seen so many exotic Gucci handbags. Everywhere we turned there were ostrich bags, python jackets,womens coach boots,Two Year Check-Up « The Hillman Family, and crocodile skins. My absolute favorite was the $300,000 Gucci Crocodile Trunk. The trunk is a taupe crocodile and a stunning collectors piece (not to mention it is the only one of its kind). Going along with the crocodile craze, Gucci took one of its best bags of the season and dressed it up in yellow crocodile, creating the Gucci Crocodile Hysteria Bag. This is unlike any other Gucci bag I have seen in the longest time. The crocodile is buttery soft as it is taken from the belly of the crocodile. The inside is lined with goatskin that is even more supple. In fact, if they could make me a big pillow out of this exact material that would be heaven. This bag had the perfect slouch, the perfect chic feel, and the color was stunning. Only problem (for me at least) is the $37,500 price tag. I love this bag, love it so very much, but the price tag is way out of my range. Instead I could settle with the goatskin version ($1950). Saks also offers a python version for $3990 and a patent version for $1790 via Saks.

Fashion Week Fall 2010 Gucci Handbags – PurseBlo

Saturday, July 31st, 2010

Allow me to make one of my personal biases clear: I look forward to seeing the bags on the Gucci runway more than almost any other bag-including show at fashion week. The brand’s notorious sense for modern glamor and sexuality often comes through best in their runway bags,Fashion Friday 11 7 08 « phdmamas, and seeing them is almost always a pleasure.

I wasn’t as excited by this season’s offerings as I was for last season’s technology-influenced collection, but they were still as luxurious and detailed as you could reasonably ask. Much of the collection, which was heavy on ostrich, was also sporting a slightly modified interlocking G logo that I’ve never seen before – could it be a vintage revival, as is popular with the brand,neckties, or something completely new? I’m not sure which,scholar bridged belts « Mens Belts, but whatever it is,Wallet Pains and Waistline Gains – Wallets, I think its slightly curvier lines work well for the direction that the brand is going.

Gucci Icon Bit Medium Shoulder Bag

Gucci confuses us from time to time, teetering from overly gaudy bags to beautiful pieces. Obviously we prefer the beautiful wearable pieces so as we continue to find them Gucci continues to slowly grow on us and make its way into our hearts.

Even better is to find a Gucci bag that we like marked down. Typical handbag prices that we have come to expect range around $2,Be Warm and In-Style with Jil Sander Fur Cuff Tall,000, so to find a handbag under $1,000 that we actually like is a feat in and of itself. The bag I am referring to is the Gucci Icon Bit Medium Shoulder Bag which rocks as easy everyday style in fall/winter suede. There is both dark blue and purple suede available, my pick going towards the blue. The ruthenium hardware compliments the deep hued suede perfectly. Other features include signature horsebit detail which Gucci has become known for, a zip around closure, and multiple inside pockets. This bag is simple,JIMMY CHOO X HUNTER COLLAB « STAY GOLD IS CE, functional,hunter rain boots, and really has caught our attention. Was $1,390 now $931 via Bergdorf Goodman.

Gucci Indy Bag – PurseBlog

gucci indy bag

Dear Gucci,

Do you want people to actually buy your bags? Why is it that every time I go into your store the handbag selection looks like the exact same fug from last season and the season before? It is time to move on, design something new, take a chance. Because, face it, even if you fail miserably, it won’t make much of a difference. Your monogram bags are probably one of the worst logo bags out there. For some reason, they repulse me. And your Indy bags have some potential, as in the shape is ok, but why would you put a design like this on one? Your Gucci Indy Bag above shows off multicolor blue bell embroidery with bamboo tassels and metal plate details. Unfortunately, the bells resemble jellyfish, which I absolutely despise. Jellyfish sting me,Coach Beach Collection, and stick on my skin, and turn me red with an itchy painful rash. Is there a reason you have bells that resemble jellyfish? It feels like the scene in Finding Nemo, where Nemo and Dori have to swim through the jellyfish. Do you remember what happened to Dori? The good news is,only water forests belts « Mens Belts,mens timberland shoes, Dori lived. This bag itself is not absolutely horrible, but I feel like your bags in general have been horrible. I was at Saks the other day and a gold Python Indy was thrown on the sale table next to some Juicy Couture handbags. Talk about slummin’ it. But please do not think you are a lost cause, because you are not. I am still sporting, and LOVING, my Gucci Horsebit Hobo. You did do the Gucci Crystal Evening Bag which is swoon-worthy. It is time for some new handbags. Do something bold, do something new, just do something. Jellyfish-like-bell Indy via Saks for $3890.

Sincerely,Get Chic and Warm with Maison Martin Margiela Tall Shearling,

Megs

P.S. The price chart needs to be re-negotiated. Why does this Jellyfish bag cost nearly $4 grand???
