Trussardi 1911 Red Camo Leather Duffle Bag

Despite its high prices, I’ve long admired the leathergoods offerings from Trussardi 1911. Milan Vukmirovkic, the Italian label’s multi-talented creative director, has just launched a “Red Camo by Trussardi 1911″ collection available exclusively at the boutique e-shop. At first glance, all the pieces are extremely practical and masculine–but it’s the leather travel bag in the signature camouflage print that I was most drawn to. For a new twist, Vukmirovkic added bright red contrast details in vibrant red leather for what can only be described as a striking visual effect. The overall collection is comprised of 13 accessories: wallets, toiletry case, shoulder bag, gym bag and trolley. There are even covers for the Blackberry, iPhone, iPad and iPod. For those wanting a more rugged feel, opt for the duffle with fabric handles that can double as a gym bag (it runs $1,690).$2,000, available exclusively

The Villador Boy Satchel is your perfect in between bag. It is sort-of a clutch but can also be a shoulder bag. This means it is a Slutch.This slutch can be worn by day while shopping for lemons at the nearest farmers market while walking your dog Bubbles, or by night after you have used said lemons in a vodka wine spritzer and now you feel like dancing till dawn.I enjoy this bag. It is versatile, not huge, but big enough for the essentials. It also has the essential inner little zipper pocket that is imperative if you are going to wear this out anywhere because it keeps your credit cards and ID safely out of the hands of pick-pocket-ors, muggers, or your bartender after you dump your bag on the floor looking for your cell phone to call for a ride home because, turns out, vodka and wine are a deadly combination.To sum up- the bag is cute, you will get a lot of use out of it, the bow is sweet as can be  and you can swipe it at Luisaviaroma for $897.60
