Your WTF of the day is courtesy of Jimmy Choo

When I discovered the Jimmy Choo Whipstitched Fur Crossbody on Neiman Marcus as sale page (naturally) last night, my brain flooded with innumerable questions. Why had I never seen this bag before? Surely it had been around for some time if it a's now on the sale page? I trawl Neiman Marcus for things to write about  every day, how did I miss it? Did it go directly to the sale page, do not pass go, do not collect $200? Might this be the most heinously terrible crime against humanity that I a've ever seen from a major handbag brand, or is it hilarious to be bad?

And then there a's the strap! It looks like the kind of thick, fancy rope that you a'd find at an upholstery shop frequented by the Actual Housewives of New Jersey. No, actually, this is what it reminds me of (in case you don a't know where this is headed, skip to around three:30):

I am not even definite I do know where to start. The bag apparently comes with its own (attached!) bed of raccoon tails so that no matter where you place it, it  as definite to act as an expensive Swiffer and attract all the loose dust in a twelve-inch radius. Not to mention that while you  are jogging, that giant wad of fur is going to be dangling from your hip the whole time.

If the whipstitched reptile-and-leather bag had been on a traditional strap, it would have been a incredibly passable crossbody option, but with half a dozen tassles and yards of rope and pounds of fur, it as hard to keep in mind that there as even a bag there. I could imagine this bag looking the part in a Russian-themed Vogue news story, but beyond that, I hope that no designs to actual purchase or carryover it. Buy through Neiman Marcus for $1336 (was $1995).

Battles Of The Bag: Jimmy Choo Vs Azzedine Alaia

Alaia Leopard Tote, $4770. Jimmy Choo Gaia Leopard Tote, $2295. Both via Net-a-Porter.
To my eternal joy, leopard print goes absolutely nowhere. It 'been a strong trend, as the stocks fall, but the figure has fallen from grace, and for decades, and is here to stay as long as the love of the maximalist fashion remains strong. In fact, the number of leopard, which is the surface of autumn 2011 could be the absolute record for a modern fashion industry.

Assuming you are still in Leopard, this means you have to make some decisions accessories. Natural or gray? Briefcase or bag? Part or all haircalf leather? Alaia Satchel or Jimmy Choo Leopard lambskin and leopard Gaia? Personally, I'll take Alaia every day, every day, but check out the larger photos and prices after the jump before we know which design the bag of battle.

Jimmy Choo Mine Ends Of The Spectrum Of Design For Fall 2011

A bag does not come from a collection with a strong vision and unified design to be good, but more often than not, the best bags do. From a clear vision provides a set of patterns, a singular vision and a set of references for drawing, and knowing what's going on in the creative process tends to lead to better and more rigorous editing, this Fall 2011 that Jimmy Choo handbags could have really used.

When I look at these photos, I began with optimism, much of the structure may have been exactly what was needed to put on track Choo. But as I continued to click on the bag, things become more strange and bizarre, and not a smart way. More bags are covered in metal medallions of the zodiac, some of them are gigantic, laminated structure without the fur, one in particular is very strong need for a shave. My advice to people on the Jimmy Choo would be to keep the nails box and start over with everything else.

Jimmy Choo Rikki Relief Shoulder Bag

I expected to recover some of the bags have been covering lately, and it seems that most of them are quite structured and classical in nature. So it's no wonder I spent a lot of my day so far drooling over bags that are more nervous you feel to them. However, this Jimmy Choo bag.




As soon as I started looking for this bag, I was brought back to the last time I was a Jimmy Choo store and the number of bags are wonderful edgy. It 's always nice to find a bag that made a name for yourself before you even know what name is on the label.

Once again, approaching the bag I had to tip my hat to Jimmy Choo. The combination of colors, Jimmy Choo Rikki relief Shoulder Bag would be really great to add a touch of color and style of dress for the most basic. Even if the bag has to be purple or brown leather or snake-embossed serving a purpose. This splash of color to go purple, and the go-bag, go for brown.

I know many of you who are very anti-comfortable, but Jimmy Choo has developed this technique. So, no matter which side you are, I encourage you to think twice. Embossed leather, this bag is over water hardware, silver, a top cover with push-lock closure and belt detail. The camel suede lining looks good, either with leather purple or brown and the size is large (9 "high x 13 3 / 4" W, 8 1 / 2 "shoulder strap drop) . Ultimately, this bag is great and I love to be mine! Shop by Bergdorf Goodman for $1850.

New Choo: Jimmy Choo Alina


I almost have to drag me away boxes of 80 + moving to check on my computer. Oh, hello PurseBlog, I've missed you. And you know what else I missed? Checking on each new bag frames online world. One would think that after more than five years to write on the bags, I'd be tired of him, but this is not the case.

There was not much new on my favorite haunts site (obviously outside of the fabulous bags on the way down the runway at Milan Fashion Week to present). But I found a little gem from Jimmy Choo. And I like what I see. Jimmy Choo Alina is simple enough, but somehow pulling me in

There is something very familiar about this design (a mix of Alexander Wang and Givenchy, perhaps?). It's a bag without worry. The general appearance is nothing less common, but usually in a way that is not too boring. And this task is difficult to implement. The tote features thick, grainy leather, and there is a panel that helps the snakeskin add a delete button to the front of the bag. A more clever is an inner pocket that is accessible without opening the bag (which can easily be useful).

Some might look at this bag and see three B's: big, black and boring. But I'm pretty. Everyone needs a big black bag in their wardrobe, and it would be a great base handbag. As noted above, see how it pairs with heels leopard. Buy from Jimmy Choo for $ 1895th

Homage To The Bronx Zoo With The Cobra Snake Bag Jimmy Choo



If you spend much time online that we (for the sake of your sanity, we hope you do not), you've probably heard that a venomous cobra escaped from the Bronx Zoo and is now funny and scary big part of New York City. Nobody has any idea where the tube has slipped, but now has its own Twitter account funny, and took his seat Charlie Sheen as an Internet phenomenon of the day. Bronx Zoo Cobra to win them all now, Mr. Sheen.

There is only one right way to celebrate this little rascal slithering, and no, it's not a snake handbag. It would probably just annoy him, and if you encounter a venomous cobra, the last thing you want to do is hurt him. (Or worse, make him believe that you want to capture it and turn it into evening bag in good taste.) No, ladies, you perpetuate the Bronx Zoo Cobra stone with the help of Jimmy Choo clutch Candice Snake Sweden. I think it is a "snake charming" pun here somewhere.

I have a weakness for jewelry reptiles anyway, and it includes several crystal-encrusted snakes in my collection, usually in the form of bracelets. This link would have appealed to me as a way to tie my bags in my costume jewelry discreet, but the timing's right look like a snake has taken even the culture adds another layer of appeal. At a Manhattan hotel novelty shop, I'm sure some very talented worldly thinking the same thing and buy this bridge today. Hopefully the snake will be soon, so this coupling may again become just a normal evening bag with a vintage touch. Buy through Net-a-porter for $1595th
