HAUTELOOK: Junior Drake Luscious Leather Handbag SALE!

The classy but edgy style of Junior Drake handbags attracts women of all ages who are confident in their own style, strive to make a statement, and exude a distinctive personality.

The Junior Drake team has developed a reputation for conceiving fresh design concepts that offer couture style and affordable quality.

Their handbags can be distinguished not only by the soft Italian leather, quality craftsmanship, detailed hardware and handcrafted flourishes, but also by its unique source of inspiration: Junior Drake.

Every time you go into your handbag, you'll see the silk lining with Junior Drake's image looking up at you. She reminds you that it's what's inside that makes you feel good and look good. "It's not the bag, it's the girl!"

Alright, well, kinda dorky ... that promotional wording up top (not mine, by the way, I ain't owning that). And I even took the words Junior Drake out a couple of times and inserted a pronoun instead cuz I couldn't stand looking at it another time. I don't know. What do you think? Despite the "It's all about Junior Drake, Junior Drake, Junior Drake," commotion, these handbags are luxuriously soft, chic yet classic, and never go out of style.  I'll be at the sale for sure!

The Junior Drake handbag sale starts Mon., 6/28/10 @ 10 AM CT.

GILT: Marc Jacobs Handbags on SALE!

Fashion icon Marc Jacobs is a cornerstone of contemporary American design, known for his rebellious designs as much as his reverential references to styles of the past. Born in New York, the wunderkind Jacobs was the youngest designer ever to be granted CFDA’s Perry Ellis Award for New Fashion Talent. Jacobs’ ability to upend trend by designing at the forefront of couture culture has made him a celebrity in his own right, and the ever-experimental Jacobs has also earned the adoration of the avant-garde through his unexpected collaborations with painters such as Takashi Murakami.



 
Get carried away with this latest crop of handbags from New York’s fashion darling. Must-haves in this sale feature funky argyle patterns pieced with python, leather and all-over quilting. The requisite witty details play out in these flower-shaped tassels and chunky chain-link straps and the style comes in lots of sizes, from satchels to shoulder bags. Wristlets studded with Swarovski crystals are another sly textural innovation on offer.
 

The Marc Jacobs Handbag sale begins on Gilt Groupe Mon., 6/21/10 @ 11 am CT

Lily Allen: The Face of "Coco Cocoon" Chanel's New Handbag Collection

British singer Lily Allen proves to be perfect for the launch of the new Coco Cocoon handbag line. She won over Karl Lagerfeld, who photographed the singer for the new Chanel handbag campaign.

Karl Lagerfeld: "I love Lily Allen. She looks a lot like Gabrielle Chanel and she is a self-made woman. She is cool, young, and extremely witty. Photographing her for the advertising campaign was fantastic fun. She is extremely inspiring and is completely taken with the bags - with her typical English reserve!"

Um, word to Karl, who wouldn't be completely taken with a Chanel bag?!?! Droooooooling!

The Coco Cocoon Handbag Collection will be available in Chanel boutiques Oct. 3rd.

For more information and more delicious photos from the campaign, visit Fashion Trends on Chanel online.
