Reed Krakoff Laced Cadet Leather Shoulder Bag

If you’re still wondering who Reed Krakoff is and why the fashion world is buzzing about him I can only tell you this: his bags have 65% of market share worldwide. Yup, he’s the Creative Director of Coach! But don’t confuse Reed’s namesake collection with what you’re used to from Coach. No logos nor canvas, what you’ll get is luxe leathers and deceptively simple designs. My favorite of the season is the Laced Cadet shoulder bag, at first glance you think it’s just another black tote. Well, look closer and you’ll see incredible details on the handle and throughout the bag (side hand stitching, gun metal hardware and subtle designer tag)– details that a true bag snob will appreciate. Best part is Reed is keeping prices fairly reasonable. Grab one quickly.Reed Krakoff Laced Cadet Leather Shoulder Bag at Net-a-porter.com – $990

The Cleobella Mexicana Clutch that Emmy Rossum was spotted in isn’t my personal style. I’ve never been one to go for cut-out detailing when it comes to handbags, at least not of the ornate kind. I can however appreciate the work and detail that went into this handcrafted piece and if this style is up your alley, it’s hard to argue with the $160 price tag! The clutch comes in a slew of colors and is in line with the Cleobella aesthetic, which has been embraced by celebs from Fergie to Jessica Alba. Check-out and shop the collection here!
