THIS EIFFEL TOWER BAG IS SOOO CARRIE BRADSHAW!

Isn't this Eiffel Tower Clutch totally unique? It's one of the many exquisite bags that Carrie Bradshaw steps out in style with in "Sex and The City: The Movie". According to my source (Shefinds.com), this clutch is predicted to be the must-have accessory once it gains exposure on the movie screens this weekend.

The clutch, designed by Timmy Woods, currently retails at Nordstrom for $415; however, more than 3,000 Swarovski crystals were added to the original Eiffel Tower design to create the Carrie-worthy, $2,500 Paris-themed showpiece.

I'm counting down the days to the movie... just a few more left!

IMAN'S "GLOBAL CHIC COLLECTION" IS WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR!

I initially stumbled upon Iman's Global Chic Collection about six months ago (you can view my previous post here), and really liked what I saw. Since then, these bags have become even more appealing to me when I considered the price factor. These bags look great, and what's even better is that they're affordable!

Even though most of Iman's collection is made of faux leather and suede materials, it looks like high quality merchandise. I would wear it!

All of the bags shown here are priced under $100:





I love the color combination and style of this fuchsia Global Chic Glamour Evening Bag with a touch of metallic shimmer. It retails for only $54.95-- how can you pass this one up?

I really like the look, as well as the size of this Global Chic Red Patent Tote-- I don't like squeezing all of my personal items inside a bag, so this one would be perfect for me! At a retail price of $89.95, I feel this is a good buy!

NEIMAN MARCUS GIVES US GLAM WITH FALL 2008 ACCESSORIES

I get the feel of old Hollywood glam when I look at the display of handbags coming out this fall. The handbags are feminine, sophisticated, and some of the best couture I've seen in a long time!

Being a handbag designer myself, I can tell that the designers of these bags really put some thought and effort into trying to come up with something unique from what's currently out. I personally love anything that's lacy or frilly, so these bags really stand out for me!



I love the simple embellishing when working with beautiful lace fabrics in white - a nice, clean touch that's classy!

I love the pink and berry color combination on this handbag-- very elegant!

LOOKING FOR A BIRKIN? MICHAEL TONELLO KNOWS HOW TO GET THEM!

Looking to add the ultimate "It Bag" to your collection?

Check out this video (courtesy of NECN.com) where Michael Tonello talks about how he was able to locate and purchase hundreds of these much sought after "status symbol" bags, and re-sell them to high profile celebrities and fashionistas, who have waited on lists for two years or more to get one of these Hermes creations. Two years or more-- hard to believe!

He's even wrote a book about his experiences, called "Bringing Home The Birkin".

This is completely baffling to me... all for this bag???
