Alexander Wang "Marti" Backpacks

I haven't worn a backpack since college but I'm in love with these new Martis.  Can be worn as a shoulder bag or a super convenient back pack- Efficient and cool-the epitome of Alex Wang. 

This is actually a light grey...to die for.

Oversized Clutches

So over tiny clutches that you can't even fit more than a credit card.  As if!  Everyone knows we girls need lots of shiznit when we go out!!  Haven't been this excited about a clutch in forevs.  Gorge, good price, dress it up, dress it down, hot color that goes with everything.  What else is there???

Angel Jackson Dakota Seric Fringe Tote

Color: White

 I have been LUSTING after the White Dakota Seric Fringe Tote since catching a glimpse of Angel Jackson's line sheet back in February.  Unfortunately, the white sold out in 5 seconds flat.  Oh well, I guess I'll settle for the Bamboo, or maybe the Black...wasting no time tho...word is, this bag has been snapped up by some Uber Hot Celebs.

Color: Bamboo

Available (exclusively in the US) at www.designersocial.com -$675

Celine Boston Bag

Phoebe Philo is beyond. Creator of the Paddington, arguably the most popular "it" bag of all time-she's doing it over at Celine...can she turn this super sophistocated line into a household name?

Drool Worthy: Katherine Kwei

Was dining the other night with a really hot girl and she was carrying KK's Donna Tie Dyed clutch.  I couldn't stop staring at it and I have to admit...I was bummin' that I didn't get it for myself a few months ago from designersocial.com.  Found the satchel though at asos.com (on sale) and I think it's smokin' hot.

PS1 in Smoke

Now, I have a thing for the color "elephant" lately-this PS1 is no exception...It's pretty much sold out everywhere, but Barney's online still has the medium sized one. They also still have a good selection of other colors as well. As an aside, Barney's online site is badly in need of some PR obvsi b/c they are never sold out of desirous things.
