Looking for some new fashion this season? Try the Leather Linking Strap Flap Hobo (makes for a good tongue twister). Well, this handbag is a wonderful example of the magic of pastels. The truth is that these soft shades can never go wrong be it any time of the year. Designed by Dautore the accessory in reference comes in a pretty shade of pale pink (among other pastel shades) that we popularly know as Venus.
We are impressed with the fact that the maker has kept this handbag very understated. The most attractive feature is its intricately linked leather strap that manages to look both sturdy and dainty at the same time.

The Chloé Mira Shoulder Bag will leave you in a debate. Well, we do get a feeling that it will leave you undecided though might we also add that the overall look might please. It’s the huge crystal embellishments that sore the eyes. Otherwise, the bag has all that you look in for one. The size is generous at /”17cm W x 6″/61cm H x 4″/11cm D. The handle drop is 12″/30 cm. And the color tone is a basic skin shade of beige in exquisite eggshell leather.
The innards have been lined with a light peach-ish cloth type. Other decorations on the bag include a gold-tone chain shoulder strap which does remind us of the fashion of the 80s. A weighted flap closure on the front indeed puts a tight lid on your bare necessities. There is a dangling golden charm too.

If you have noticed, we have always been a little partial towards neutral glam. And that is precisely why we are proud to bring the Lamé Shoulder Bag to you. Available in the market under the brandname Chloé, this one is a delight to look at and even more if owned. The dull golden colors impress with their simple elegance.
The design complements the low bling factor of the purse which really is a strong point, if you ask us. The fold over pattern is pleasing to the eyes and also very convenient for the user. There is a rather delicate gold-tone double chain shoulder strap too while a smart turnlock enclosure with the embossed logo sits on the front flap.

The hard times have struck all businesses, be it the regular ones or those in the ultra-luxe category. But yes, there are a couple of names like Gucci, Cartier and Armani that have opened new stores in different regions all over the world. But Hermes is not one of them. Empire expansion is not on the brand’s priority list. The company rep was heard saying that the financial turbulence will last another year or two. Watches and jewelry are not so popular but looks like certain exotic-skin Hermes bags is running waiting lists for several years.
Now to meet with the growing demands of the fashion world, Hermes has started breeding its own crocodiles on farms in Australia. Ouch! Now, this might hurt the animal lover within but we are told that some three to four crocodiles make one Hermes bag.
