Purse Straps--Celeb/Marc Jacobs
When trying to identity a purse, especially in cases like these in which photos didn't display the entire bag, one can still zone in on some identification using details, such as that strap.
This can be useful in shopping, blogging, or for fun (if you love bags like I). Or all three.

Go Online! (Cosmo Pick)
Cosmo Radio is so fabulous but the ladies of "Wake up..." need to wake up to the new world we have (Earth 3.0?) and quit shopping in person when there's a must have list, and shop online instead!
What the ladies on the show did was send the male co-host on a bag hunt for a black leather number with a gold chain strap (quilted preferred), "expensive look" but Chanel-inspired was a hope. The budget: max $200.
What should be done is not to go to 5th Avenue, even if you're in the fabulous NYC, go to a computer and go to http://www.replicabagsmerchant.com.
I found this bag by Guess by Marciano for about $85, and it's exactly what the host wants. I found this in under 3 minutes.

Kim's Bags
Hopewell,Virginia
I have a small handbag collection because I will use the same one forever. I always have a hard time finding one that I really like. I saw this one on the clearance shelf a couple weeks ago in Target. It's by Merona and it is so spacious and cute. While I own a handful of designer bags, it is this less expensive one that has grabbed my heart. I'm a bit of a pack rat so I keep a lot of stuff in my bag. You never know where you'll end up or what you'll need... LOL.

The Walk of Shame Kit to Fit in your Morning After Bags
We also suggest the product "brush-ups" and either your own makeup remover or your own big black Jackie O' shades. What fabulous lady shouldn't own such a pair?
And we even found these cool foldable flip-flops in a totally chic print. Goh-geous!
Now do note this post was all in fun.
Remember to practice safe sex and safe dating, and this includes do get to know your match well before leaping into physical relations, don't get drunk on a first date, do bring your cell and I.D., etc. Know it's called the Walk of Shame for a reason, and what we really think esteemed ladies of today should do is wait until he makes you breakfast, buys you flowers, or the like, the morning after. We don't want to see you sneaking out of a dorm building, period. We want you walking out hand-in-hand with a new love, more like several mornings after. ;-)Last but not least, we also don't want you to yet need that Knocked Up bag!
Fun New Sunglasses For Spring, Part Two
Like Jen, I've been craving new glasses for spring, only sunglasses rather than ones for reading. I also want something vintage-inspired, except I'm taking my style cues from even further back—more '50s-ish. Something oversize and a little pointy at the corners, but not full-on cat-eye. I just discovered the Ray-Ban Wayfarer Skinnies, and I think they might be perfect. They're a twist on the brand's signature frames, only bigger, a little rounder, and with slim side bands. Still totally classic, only not so ubiquitous and more feminine. Less Buddy Holly, more Sophia Loren.

4 New Designers To Watch
Remember these names : Patrik Ervell, Alejandro Ingelmo, Robert Geller, and Adam Kimmel. They are the 4 new designers on the verge of changing the face of Menswear in American Fashion.
Designers On The Verge
Gone are the days when American designers are known for polo shirts, khakis, navy blazers, and solid staples styles. DETAILS magazine considers these 4 new designers from New York as the vanguard of American Fashion.
Patrick Ervell, 30, “My philosophy has never been about doing a major seasonal shift—it’s about gradually developing the collection.”
Adam Kimmel, 29, “It’s good to have fun as long as the clothes are kept in a masculine context.”
Robert Geller, 31, “I make clothes that have strength, which is very important for men.”
Alejandro Ingelmo, 34, “When I can’t think, can’t design, I walk around the city. I see the people walking and I see all this movement and the traffic and I’m very influenced by it.”
More information about Patrik Ervell, Alejandro Ingelmo, Robert Geller, and Adam Kimmel and their styles, respectively, can be found at DETAILS magazine.
Weekend Wear For Men
Suppose you have a formal get together with friends and family, or just need something to wear for future affairs. Today I’ve picked out five items that are a combination of modern and classic.
Finding suits at stores is one thing, but at a reasonable price is a whole another story. So I’ve taken two separate pieces and put them together. The Calvin Klein Black Blazer($178.00) and DKNY Black Braided Stripe Flat Front Slim Fit Wool Pant($125.00).
Designer Marc Ecko has managed to create a showstopping piece. TheMarc Ecko Men’s E20033G3 Watch Box Set($225.00) is pricey, but worth the buck. Inside is a stainless steel bracelet and watch covered in crystal accents. You’re bound to get compliments while walking down the street.
Colombo Slim Card Holder by Castello($14.99) is perfect for the everyday man, and one the reasons why I chose this, is because it reminds me so much of the leather wallets my grandfather would keep with him. The wallet has a rustic look to it, sort of classic in a way. Designer Castello crafted this wallet in grain Italian leather. You’ll be able to keep everything from cash to credit cards. Customers who purchase this item will also receive a very nice gift box to keep the wallet in.
Never can you go wrong with a classic black shoe. Alfani Reserve Bike Toe Oxford shoe($99.00) is perfect for all ages young or old. The look of the shoe reeks of sophistication and style. This pointed shoe is avaliable in sizes in 9-13.

Weekend Etsy picks
The detail of today’s Etsy picks just amazes me! These crane earrings have been folded out of a single piece of fine silver:
Don’t believe me? Check out this photo of work in progress:
Hapa uses traditional Japanese origami (paper folding) techniques to create an entire collection of unique fine silver jewelry that you’re guaranteed not to see every day!
