If you’re in desperate need of a solid-color leather handbag, a cross body bag will probably be your best bet. As one option offered by designers as a cross between a handbag and a clutch, a cross body bag has a smaller body – enough to carry the basics for going out – and a full strap attached. While various designers carry these bags, pop singer Rihanna was seen with one of these cross body bags in black recently. The bag itself is solid color and leather and, to accompany Rihanna’s less than flashy outfit, the bag seems appropriate for going out casually.

Although some of the top designers such as Fleet Ilya for Rihanna’s bag are making these cross body styles, these bags can be found in more affordable price ranges, as well. At Best Handbag Wholesale, western-style, cross body bags are an option. One of these cross body bags consists of a leather pouch with three compartments inside. On the outside, the purse is made of solid-color leatherette and decorated with various western ornaments. This includes clear colored rhinestones, as well as various studs in rounded and western shapes. Similar to Rihanna’s bag, black is available, as well as other colors of leatherette.

How should you wear a cross body bag, western style or regardless? As the bag is somewhat neutral and medium-sized, it’s ideal for a variety of occasions. Whether you’re taking the bag to work, out for running errands, or to a bar or club, the bag is appropriate for all occasions. As long as the bag is neutral or with slight embellishments, it’s sure to fit in or match nearly any outfit. But, while black goes with nearly everything, other solid colors at Best Handbag Wholesale for cross body bags make the handbag brighter, such as pink or lime green, but are still a solid shade.

Canal Street Raid: Is Buying Knockoff Handbags Worth It?

love-louisvuitton.comMany go to Canal Street in New York’s Chinatown section for one of two things: Good Asian cuisine and counterfeit goods. The latter, which includes both knockoff handbags, watches, and other goods, has come under scrutiny for years, as the plethora of knockoff products drives many to the area. A recent raid to the area caused policemen to find at least $1 million in counterfeit merchandise and shut down – at least temporarily – businesses selling such goods. While this won’t stop those from coming to Canal Street, it brings up the question: Why buy counterfeit or knockoff products when other options are available for designer-style goods?

laptop batteriesWearing designer goods may make you look like you’re (monetarily) worth more but, when your knockoff purse is falling apart, will you still look good? The fact is, when dealing with any type of knockoff products, including handbags, the quality should come into question. Sometimes, a knockoff isn’t easily spotted unless you look closely. In this case, how the name plate is attached and how the purse is put together, mainly the zipper and stitching, separates a genuine designer bag from a knockoff. Canal Street isn’t the only place for knockoffs, however, and buying a handbag not through a licensed dealer may mean you could be getting a knockoff.

An alternative to this is looking for designer-inspired products. These handbags and other products may not have the label attached to them that, say, a Gucci or Coach bag does but that doesn’t mean they don’t project the same style. Designer inspired purses are an economical option for anyone who wants designer fashion but can’t afford the high price tag. Whether you’re looking for a traditional monogram handbag or one based on the latest trends, be it snakeskin, patent leather, or tattoos, a designer-inspired handbag often has the same type of style without the price tag of a designer brand attached.

The Functions of Hobo Handbags

Hobo handbags are one style we’ve seen many times on this blog. It’s not that easy to escape, however. Nearly every celebrity seems to be having one. In a sense, the hobo handbag is a variation on the ‘80s slouch purse which, at the time, was a somewhat shapeless leather handbag with a medium-sized strap. In the present, the hobo bag keeps the shapelessness of slouch purses but the size has essentially quadrupled. Look at a hobo from one direction, and it looks like a large, amorphous tote bag. From another, it’s simply a small piece of luggage. And, in this sense, nearly everyone – both women and men – can use a hobo, because it’s not really a purse and not really a piece of luggage. It’s, instead, a multipurpose hybrid.

l vuitton

This is what designer Marc Jacobs appears to be using his hobo handbags for, anyway. While still a staple piece for many female celebrities, Jacobs shows it’s okay for male celebrities – and men in general – to carry a hobo bag. In his case, Jacobs is using a few to bring things to the beach and, considering the bag can hold a few towels, as well as other items, but, of course that depends on the size of the bag.

Celebrity and wannabe-pop star Heidi Montag (or Pratt, whatever you call her now) has often been seen wearing various bright colored hobo handbags. Under the link, Montag is seen with a dark blue Balenciaga alligator skin handbag the size of an art portfolio. While she doesn’t appear to be carrying much in there, think of all the things that, when used practically, could fit inside one. For men and women both, such a handbag could easily serve as a carryon with a few basic items, such as clothing and toiletries, for a trip.

Sequins, Textured Leather, and More with Dolce & Gabbana

Have you ever seen a handbag line incorporate so many disparate styles? In the case of Dolce & Gabbana’s fall 2010 handbag line, all of the latest trends, with a different, spin were combined – some on the same handbag. Essentially, two types of bags were seen – small clutches in coin purse shapes and basic handbags that incorporated textured leather, animal prints, fur, and knits in some form. But, many of these designs can already be found off the runways individually and, patchwork handbags aside, many of the styles seen by Dolce and Gabbana here on the Purse Blog have a collage effect.

louis bag

One of the more notable designs in the latest D&G line appears to be textured coin purses. Some of these, according to the images seen on The Purse Blog, appear to have a snakeskin texture – made with real snakeskin, probably – or a beaded or sequin look. The color combination for all appears to be black and silver, and many of these can double as an iPod or iPhone case. For the same type of look on an affordable level, Best Handbag Wholesale has many sequined wallets and others with reptile prints. All can double as a clutch.

Textured leather and animal prints and hair are some of the other designs seen in the latest Dolce and Gabbana line. Of course, if you can’t afford the price tag, similar textured leather handbags can be found through BHW. These include textured patent leather bags with a hobo style and standard handbags with textured leather and bright colors. Animal prints, additionally, can be found on a number of bags by BHW, and these may be on patent leather (or a leatherette material) or they may be made from genuine cow hide, such as these limited edition cowhide bags.

Miley Cyrus Seen with Fur Messenger Handbag

Who knows what Miley Cyrus is carrying around in this fur messenger handbag, but the juxtaposition of the particular bag and the dog she’s carrying seems kind of odd. Although the fur used in the Rick Owens handbag isn’t specified – and can’t be dug up online – the look of fur, real or fake, seems to be one of the latest trends seen recently. Think back to the various Fashion Week posts we did. How many of the handbags seen, particularly in the lines by Dolce & Gabbana and Fendi, that incorporated fur in some form? Although using fur is somewhat of a contested issue (think back a few weeks ago to the Olympics and male figure skater Johnny Weir’s costume), designers now seem to think of it as an extension of the various animal prints we saw all over the place last year.

louis vuitton replicas

If you can’t afford a fur handbag (and how many of us can?), the logical alternative is to find something made of fake fur or of a “lesser” animal, such as cowhide. At Best Handbag Wholesale, many recent styles have been made from cowhides, including limited edition bags and those with a bit more texture. For the latter, this cowhide handbag has the same shaggy and furry look at Cyrus’ bag but on a smaller scale.

The limited edition cowhide handbag, on the other hand, combines a closer-cropped texture with the natural colors of cowhide. This particular bag, in addition to being made from natural cow skin, is embellished with various western ornaments. As western style is in right now, why not combine the two styles for a unique look? This particular bag has studs and rhinestones on the exterior, as well as a large cross at the center.

What is the “It” Handbag?

Fashion may have several trends at once, such as the many trends seen in 2009, but there’s always one that’s above the rest. This “It” trend is the most sought after, be it for clothing, shoes, or handbags. At the moment, the “It” trend appears to be animal prints, particularly leopard spots or stripes, in many variations, but this, of course, depends on the brand. In fact, according to a recent article in the ******0******Daily Mail, sales of luxury handbags are up, with a 60 percent increase in 2009. Can this be attributed to an “It” handbag or another trend?

louis vuitton purse

A luxury handbag is simply a purse designed by a high-end designer brand. In this case, brand Mulberry saw significant gains last year, with a 100 percent increase in sales. One way they’ve kept ahead of the competition is through naming bags after celebrities. In particular, the “It” handbag by Mulberry is the Alexa bag, named after model and television personality Alexa Chung. The brand, additionally, had several celebrity endorsements over the past year. While the Alexa bag has a basic leopard print and slouch style, Mulberry debuted similar styles at this year’s fashion week, including bold and bright colored animal print handbags.

How important of an accessory is a handbag? This article found that, in the UK, the average spending for a woman on handbags is £4000, which comes out to $6117 USD, yearly. This average woman also owns 17 handbags. But, while this may seem like a large sum of money for an accessory, some celebrities like Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham own enough Hermes Birkin bags to be worth £1 million. A handbag is considered as much of a part of an outfit as pants, a shirt, or jewelry, and, as a result, the average woman has many options to choose from to go with various looks.

Men Wearing Purses?

500x 0924 kravitzEvery week, there are stories about celebrities that may or may not be true. Just take a look at a grocery cashier’s magazine rack: BRANGELINA SPLITS!!! ANISTION TO BLAME! You know what I’m talking about – those trashy tabloids with “sourced” stories with no legitimate proof of celebrity wrongs and bad deeds.

However, there are times when pictures are taken that can change your beliefs about headlines. When I saw a headline talking about rocker Lenny Kravitz wearing a “dress,” high heels and a purse, I just had to see for myself. I mean, I know rock stars are weird, but even the straight ones just wear girly jeans, not high heels or purses! Then I stumbled upon this blog and the picture that accompanies this post – Lenny Kravitz with a dress, purse and high heeled boots! This blog has this to say:

lui vitton

“The first thing that came to mind when I saw this photo of sex-symbol/rocker Lenny Kravitz during New York Fashion Week dressed in a draped tunic (dress?), black leather pants, black leather knee-high boots with a high wedge heel and matching black leather man-purse was – this has to be a joke.

Sadly, it’s not.lois viton

Yes, we now live in an age where the “metrosexual” craze has taken over, where skinny ties and Dior Homme suits are the must-have items for rappers like Kanye West and Pharrell Williams. Retro plaid shirts, kool-aid colored kicks, and skinny jeans are spotted on every heterosexual 20-something male down Michigan Avenue.”

I don’t think that men will ever get to a point where they can wear western-style handbags like Jennifer Lopez or Blake Lively, but there may be a day when messenger bags may start to look a bit more fashion-oriented. Calling Victoria Beckham and Hermes!

New Handbag Styles This Season

Fashion is notoriously fickle, and that includes handbags. What may have been in one season is completely out now. But, for the moment, some trends that are taking over the handbag world are western styles. Generally, when many think of western fashion, they think of rodeo gear, from embroidered cowboy shirts to chaps, and, for women, dream catcher earrings or western stone jewelry with turquoise or onyx. The new western fashion trends for handbags stray away from these assumptions and come up with something classic but new and completely fashionable.designer handbag

designer handbag

One such popular trend that can be seen this season on Best Handbag Wholesale is snakeskin. Many wholesale handbag dealers like Best Handbag are carrying this pattern in both the natural colors of a snake’s scales and also dyed. In the selection of products on Best Handbag Wholesale, some of these snakeskin handbags are dyed partially or fully in purple, pink, or blue. Aside from snakeskin, other animal skin patterns are popular for the summer of 2009, and that includes animal prints like leopard and zebra and other reptile patterns like crocodile and alligator skin. These, too, appear natural or dyed.

For women’s western fashion, another popular trend seen on many wholesale handbags this season, particularly designer inspired wholesale handbags, is rhinestones and studs, as can be seen in the picture above. Studs and rhinestones can be seen on even bags by the top designers and on bags that are more affordable. Both studs and rhinestones cover the outer appearance of a handbag and these can be silver or colored. While many may think of studs are being more of a punk fashion statement than western fashion, it all has to do with the presentation. Studs on many wholesale handbags aren’t haphazard and, instead, outline portions of the handbag or appear in rows on the top or sides of the handbag. These studs or rhinestones are then accompanied by a large buckle for a truly western touch.louis vuiton

Belts: Keeping the Western-But-Modern Style?

Everything in fashion advances or disappears. Some things come and go quickly like parachute pants while others, like denim, change every decade or so to meet the latest trends. So, why shouldn’t western fashion be any different? At Best Handbag Wholesale, our selection of products includes various western-but-modern accessories. Yes, you can wear these to a rodeo – if that’s a big thing in your area – or you can wear them for the sake of fashion.

What is western-but-modern fashion? In general, this means that the clothing still takes a basic western template – think of a western shirt or chaps – but is given the modern fashion treatment. At BHW, this is often done by incorporating modern patterns and embellishments. While our hats have such a style, so do our belts and handbags.

louis vuitton replica

The belts, in particular, are feminine but anyone looking for a bit of a rhinestone cowboy-meets-bling look should check them out. In general, the belts follow the same trends as the handbags. At the moment, this means many of our belts have an animal print pattern and are covered in various types of rhinestones. As animal print and the bejeweled look are both popular at the moment, they’re combined on all of the belts at BHW.

The animal print options include cow hide or jungle animals. For the latter, tiger and zebra stripes are common, as well as leopard spots. Aside from an actual print, the texture of the cow hide may be dyed a solid color. Added to all of these belts are rhinestones and studs in many sizes and shapes, including square-shaped conchos and rounded clear gemstones. Traditional western stones, such as turquoise or onyx, are also incorporated, either onto the belt itself or the large buckles accompanying many of these. Pair one of these with a matching handbags and a solid color pair of pants.

louie vatonEver thought the cowgirl look would be in? Perhaps it’s about time. Although western shirts made an appearance in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s and many current handbags show western embellishments – not to mention the faux line dancing song “Achy Breaky Heart” – western fashion may be making an overall impression on the mainstream. Regardless of what you think of feminist blog Jezebel, they recently posted pictures of an upcoming western fashion spread from Vogue. Complete with horses and the outdoors, many of the models are clad in staid western gear that, combining some colors from western stones and standard cuts, looks like a hybrid between traditional western wear and high-fashion style.

louisvuittonbagsBut, although shades of coral stone and cowboy hats are seen on the models (and the horses), the collection of western fashion from Vogue appears to be a bit of a compromise. First off, much of the western fashion on the models isn’t necessarily cowgirl chic but, instead, horse-riding chic with some western embellishments. Many of these looks would be appropriate for spectators at a prep school polo match and not at a rodeo. Although the ostentatious nature of many western fashion pieces, especially those at Best Handbag Wholesale, is too overwhelming for high fashion, a compromise of high and western fashion isn’t always a bad thing – especially when traditional western styles get noticed.louis vuitton bag

What’s missing from this particular collection is the bling, from turquoise to large belts, associated with western fashion – and particular rodeo gear. For an updated western fashion collection, however, Marie Claire’s recent collection of western-inspired high fashion gets it right. Not only are large turquoise stones, belts, and western stone colors, particularly coral, a significant part of this collection, but many of these items would be appropriate for a rodeo and for high fashion.

I hope you will all be glad to know that we are back to some A-listers this week. Don’t get me wrong…I wrote about Lindsey Price because I think she’s wonderful and underrated, but she is still not even close to the caliber of celebs and western-style handbags we normally discuss on this blog. Sorry Lindsey!Emmy-Rossum-Coach-Hamptons-Leather-Flap-Bag-202x300

loui vuitton bagsThis week, we will be discussing two polar opposite types of bags – tiny little clutches and those huge, dog-holding tote bags. At a glance, clutches and totes have nothing in common, except that everyone and their mother has had them out this past week!

First, we have the beautiful and always fabulous singer Rihanna out with a cute little baby blue Miss Martini clutch from Dolce and Gabbana. As always, Rihanna matches her bag flawlessly in a baby blue button up top and khaki skirt. Very tasteful!

Elsewhere, Desperate Housewives’ Eva Longoria was seen not once, not twice, but THREE times with an Adriana Castro Annie bag. That shows serious commitment to such a small bag like the Annie clutch. However, it does look quite fetching with a number of different outfits, so bring it everywhere!

On to the totes! So many celebs with huge tote-style bags! Primarily, I focused on Leighton Meester and Anna Paquin, of TV’s Gossip Girl and True Blood respectively. Leighton’s got herself a gigantic Celine Croc Luggage Bag on the set of her show. It’s definitely a bit out of place as just a standard bag, but would be excellent on an overnight to Paris or two! Anna’s got herself a Chloe Marcie Satchel, which isn’t quite in the tote range, but could definitely carry an outfit or two. She looks busy, so I’ll leave her alone – she just got married this past weekend, you know!

With all of the hoopla over celebrity arrests these past few months, it’s nice to see some celebs taking it easy after run-ins with the law. Maybe Lindsay Lohan, fresh out of jail and rehab, missed the memo, but I was talking about totes last week, right before she got released back onto Rodeo Drive. It’s cool though, because a whole bunch of celebrities were seen out recently with gigantic western-style handbags, so I have plenty to discuss!

500x lindsayshoesvuitton louisLet’s start with Lindsay – seen just days after her release from rehab carrying a gorgeous studded handbag…wait a minute! Studs! I thought we were done with that Lindsay! It doesn’t even matter what kind of bag it is, even though it looks mysteriously like something that Lady Gaga was carrying around a few weeks ago. The real trouble in this picture are the sale tags on the bottom of Lindsay’s shoes. First, studs and now this! Faux pas galore!

Now for one of Hollywood’s goody two-shoes: Reese Witherspoon! Carrying a large Marni Balloon Bag, Reese was seen out shopping, looking rather angry at the paparazzi. Nonetheless, she looks great with the Marni, which is a little bit last season, but pulls it off flawlessly. What does she have in that massive bag? I always want to know!

Finally, we’ll take a look at Twilight starlet Nikki Reed and her humongous handbag from Rebecca Minkoff. It’s called the Morning After bag, which must be indicative of the pajamas that are being carried inside. I can only assume. However, the bag is phenomenal…with a gorgeous purple exterior, long straps and more than enough room for a few different outfits. Huge bags are here to stay people! So let’s start guessing what they’ve got inside!

This year, the MTV Video Music Awards, one of the edgiest and funniest awards shows everemma-stone-bottega-veneta-clutchy year, played out live with mixed results. The host this year was E! Television’s own late night star Chelsea Handler, who has her own show on the network Chelsea Lately. The usually hysterical Handler has received scathing reviews for her hosting abilities at the show, garnering a ton of negative attention. Nonetheless, the stars still showed up in full force at the gala, wearing some fancy couture and some not so hot clothing (Lady Gaga’s meat dress anyone?).

For instance, Easy Alois viton and Superbad starlet Emma Stone was seen at the show wearing a gorgeous tiny black dress made out of some kind of shiny plastic-y material like pleather. Thankfully this looks so much better than it can be described. Seriously look to the right at her picture! It looks good. More interesting is Emma’s fancy, fancy Bottega Veneta Half Knot Calf Clutch, which Miss Stone had in a surprising purple. It’s this kind of western handbag chic that makes young Hollywood look better than old Hollywood all of the time. Emma definitely nailed it at the VMAs for sure.

Why is Audrina Patridge considered a celebrity? Does anyone know? That’s the real mystery in this blog post. The Hills can’t really count as a respected show, right? Whatever.

She was seen out the other day after her Dancing with the Stars rehearsal with a positively huge brown tote that was most likely carrying her dancing attire. This Linea Pelle Dylan Tote has been seen with Audrina numerous times and it seems like the wannabe dancer is a hige fan of Linea’s work. I would recommend that Linea stick with the designing – Audrina’s a maniac, a maniac on the floor!

Large Python Handbag Seen on Rihanna

It seems that most handbag reporting this past summer has been on python handbags. True, python is one of this season’s hottest patterns and materials, but it seems that nearly every celebrity has a python handbag these days. Recently, singer Rihanna was spotted with a large python handbag, which, as a celebrity-worn handbag, was made out of the real thing. Real python handbags, however, often come in one of two patterns: a tinted but natural looking pattern that mimics the natural colors of snake scales and one that is fully dyed but still has the texture of large snakeskin. Rihanna’s bag is actually the latter, as well as the python clutch seen on Julia Roberts a few weeks ago. Either way, python handbags have become a hot commodity in Hollywood.loui vuitton

loui vuittonAnother unique aspect about this particular python handbag seen on Rihanna is the style. The “it” handbag this past summer has been a hobo bag, and this style transcends all colors, textures, and materials as simply a large slouch purse. But, although Rihanna’s handbag looks spacious, the closure on the handbag is merely a flat, snap closure, instead of a slouching zipper. While it gives the bag some form, her handbag’s style has been dubbed a “puffy purse.” More accurately, the handbag looks like an oversized coin purse designed in brown python.

loui vuitton

Aside from singles like “Umbrella,” Rihanna is known for her style and having a unique handbag that no one can find is part of her look, as well as being able to pass off a faux hawk. If you’re looking for a specific python handbag, various retailers of discount and wholesale handbags carry a similar look. While the coin purse design is rare on the racks these days, the solid colored python skin texture isn’t, and such retailers carry solid color faux python skin bags dyed in brown and other colors, some of which are in the slouch or hobo style.

You’d think the grunge look is back judging from what Khloe Kardashian is wearing but flannel and black leggings aside, what’s more notable about her style is the three handbags that she’s carrying, two of which look obviously western-inspired. Although, with the grunge look, these would be more rocker chic, but, regardless of the label, what is with celebrities carrying multiple handbags, especially those that clash with their outfits? Khloe Kardashian isn’t the only one seen carrying three different designer handbags, as other B- and C-list celebrities like Lindsay Lohan have been spotted carrying around three different purses, only one of which matches the actual outfit.

louis vitton

As far as western style is concerned, the top two bags are the ones most western inspired, while the lower white one is simply a white leather handbag. The one most prominent, the studded hobo purse by Christian Louboutin can go either rocker or western, but, considering the studs look rather organized on the black leather, it’s more appropriately western. Studs on western clothing, especially those from Best Handbag Wholesale, range from smaller studs on handbags to concho-like studs on belts. As far as the outfit is concerned, this bag matches the black leggings and leather boots best.

The other handbag, or the one behind the studded bag, is more traditionally western inspired and can’t really be debated like the studded design in the picture. Western fashion is often inspired by Native American designs, including blankets and jewelry. This particular bag resembles most of all a blanket woven by a southwest Native American tribe, such as the Pueblos. Whether that’s the actual inspiration or not, this aspect, as well as the designer of the bag, remains unclear, but the diamond pattern in red, white, and brown seems less fashionable – but more western – than the studded handbag in front.

luis vuitton walletluis vuitton ukIn the selection of new products offered recently, jewelry has many new additions on Best Handbag Wholesale. Although the wholesale retailer’s primary products are handbags and flip flops, western inspired jewelry is also included in with the selection. Although typical western jewelry consists of silver and western stones like turquoise, onyx, and crystal, the jewelry at BHW uses this template and adds to it. Western bling jewelry is one popular style, and whether it’s a pendant with turquoise and rhinestones or a platinum horse shoe charm, this western-meets-urban style accentuates what the general public thinks about western wear. Horses and buffalo nickels aside, western jewelry can be for casual or rodeo wear.

louie baglovis vuittonNecklaces are some of the newer pieces of western jewelry at BHW. One notable style is a chain necklace built like a thicker bike chain. These chains come in traditional silver, as well as pink, purple, white, and other colors. Aside from chains, more new necklaces at Best Handbag Wholesale combine western stones. Whether large or small stone beads, these necklaces all use a combination of turquoise, onyx, crystal, and coral beads – often two or more on the same necklace. One of these can be worn by itself or paired with one of the various western themed pendants at BHW.

Aside from necklaces, Best Handbag Wholesale has many new pendants. These pendants vary in shape from stars to crosses to stars. While all of these pendants have a magnetic closure, they all incorporate different western stones, particularly turquoise, with rhinestones. The rhinestones either line the pendant or are the centerpiece to the pendant. Whether you’re looking for something flashy, casual, or to just wear to a rodeo, any of these pendants are appropriate.

Fringe is often seen as the quintessential decoration for western fashion. While hair bands may have adopted this look briefly in the ‘80s, the root for this look is western fashion, particularly leather jackets with this look. If you look at product selections at nearly any western clothing store, you’ll also find out that fringe is prevalent on clothing for both genders – and for both adults and children. While leather jackets and chaps are lined with it, women’s purses have it across the front or around the border. Add some western stones like turquoise and quartz to it, and you’ve got yourself a genuine western-style handbag.

luiviton

Celebrities, aside from washed up hair band musicians, are the latest to sport this trend. Kate Moss, for example, is seen with a black leather fringe handbag. The handbag itself, judging the picture, has about a foot of fringe attached to the bottom and partially lining the sides of the purse. While no turquoise or quartz stones are to be found on such handbags, the latest trend appears to be taking an otherwise-ordinary purse and adding something significantly western to it. In the case of Moss’s handbag, this includes lining a black leather handbag with long, thick fringe.

What are some other possibilities for “western”-izing an ordinary handbag? At Best Handbag Wholesale, this includes adding western stones, such as those named above, onyx, and coral, to a solid-color bag. Other options could be to have a standard bag colored with cow print or adding other western embellishments, such as a belt buckle. While the trend of snakeskin appears to be going out (at least for now), other animal prints are still popular, including cow hide and alligator. Studs, additionally, have been another western style that, similar to fringe and animal print, seems to still appear on celebrity purses.

The word “unusual” is often associated with Fendi as a flashy brand that just skirts below the level of being a high-end monogram label. From their sunglasses to their perfumes, all Fendi products display the double F logo and a reasonable amount of flair. Nevertheless, the recent Fendi handbag collection seen at Fashion Week seems to go against everything we’ve associated Fendi with. Sure, the logo is still there – but only as a closure this time – but what’s unusual is the muted quality to all handbags. But, even if these new Fendi purses capture your liking, many similar styles can be found in the average person’s price range.m40146

Animal prints, solid and two-tone leather, and stripes are some of the latest handbag styles seen by Fendi. If the tricolored stripe handbag is capturing your interest, various designer inspired purses at Best Handbag Wholesale have a similar design. This particular striped handbag has diagonal stripes going around the outside, each in a different color. The bag, straying away from the western style BHW is traditionally associated with, is made of a soft leatherette material and has a basic buckle closure. Pair this with any solid, somewhat-staid color outfit and the bag will pop right out.

The rest of Fendi’s collection, with the exception of the striped bag, covers all of the basic trends. Fur and animal prints, such as cheetah and leopard skin, are both present and, similarly, many handbags at BHW combine these two elements, particularly many of the cowskin handbags. Unlike their contemporaries, Fendi appears to go with the natural shades for the animal print and skin – nothing too bright and artificial-looking. Solid and two-tone bags, as mentioned previously, are another trend shared by Fendi and BHW, and many of the patent leather bags by BHW have a two-tone look to them.

What do you define as western style? Although western fashion is making a comeback, sometimes western style is confused with a rocker or punk chic. This is more often the case when considering fringe and studs on handbags. Both of these trends have appeared on handbags over the past year and are marketed both ways. A handbag with silver studs may be worn either with a leather jacket and ripped jeans or with cowboy boots and match the outfit in either case. The same is true for a leather handbag with fringe lining the edge.louis vuitton replica

One handbag open to such interpretation is a black leather hobo with fringe seen recently on Whitney Port of The City.louis vuitton purses Unfortunately, with Port’s dowdy outfit, the character of the handbag can’t be determined. Nevertheless, the bag itself is a solid leather hobo with fringe along the bottom and laced up sides. In this case, the bag is appropriate for either style, although the laced up sides do give it more of a punk rocker vibe.

Port isn’t the only celebrity to be seen with such a style. In 2009, Kate Moss and Reese Witherspoon were spotted with such fringed styles. In fact, both of these stars opted for a neutral look in black and white to make the bag stand out from the outfit.

Because having fringe on your handbag is considered a western style, retailers of western handbags and fashion will most likely carry such a bag. With designer styles treading into western territory, designer inspired bags, then, aim to imitate these designs. No matter if you’re looking for a fringed hobo handbag, such as that seen on Whitney Port, or a smaller fringed purse, western fashion and designer inspired retailers – both of which Best Handbag is – should offer affordable styles for this trend.
