New York City Fashionistas...hot handbags? No flames PLEASE!
Okay...let's just say I am a handbag lover of the worst sort. I want to buy a few nice handbags when I am back in the motherland next month. I want to know what bags everyone is carrying in NYC right now. I was thinking of a couple of Kate Spade bags as you really don't find them here in England and maybe a Luella Gisele bag (for those of you in the know). Budget wise I can spend about $1500 (it may sound crazy to some, but we all have our thing, right?)

Mark Jacobs are definitely the "hot" bag, Saks Fifth Ave. has a whole area devoted to his product by the escalators on the ground floor (unless they moved him). Bags run $850 and up. Definitely my choice if I were to buy high end (and real).

Okay, I am sold on a Marc Jacobs bag. Kate Spade...so over? Say it ain't so. I just retired my diaper bag and was thinking of getting that very cute, but very impractical basket one for the summer. What about the Chanel Ligne Cambon bags?

When you say the Kate Spade bags are over, do you mean all KS bags or just the boxy one with the handles on top that seem to be her signature bag. I too love some of her summer, less traditional bags and am now distraught!

I am mostly talking about that black KS bag that everyone and their mother has...I agree that her summer bags are really cute and the prices are great. Just noting that the KS brand in general is not as popular as it once was.

Aren't those Chanel bags quite pricey?
Forgot, less expensive than Marc Jacobs but still hot, very well constructed, and very cute are the Micheal Kors bags. Great going out on the town bag when you don't want to risk the $1000 Marc Jacobs bag getting ripped off.
