Alesssandra Gucci AG Limited Edition

alesssandra-gucci-ag-limited-editionThis Gucci heir is not cashing in on her famous surname, well, not directly anyway (And if she did, she'd get sued by the Gucci group. Oh, and her mother is in jail for arranging a hitman to kill her father. The Gucci tale is one of murder and madness!). Alessandra Gucci's line of handbags, called AG Limited Edition has created quite a stir in the fashion industry because of her name but they will be remembered for their unique designs. I am not a big fan of over embellished bags without much function but I do appreciate the unique design of the one above-- it is the perfect bag for Fancy Nancy in her chauffeured Bentley! There will only be 99 AG Limited bags made in three styles and three colors, wholesale price is steep at $6,665 to $10,134 (meaning retail will be a bit more than double that). What do you think? Will the line sink or swim, in other words: Snob or Slob?

Gwen the Glamour Mom gucci baby carrier gg fabric

gwen-the-glamour-mom-2 baby carrier gwen-the-glamour-mom-1 baby carrierWe expected nothing less of Gwen Stefani than to be an uber stylish mom. She probably doesn't even know what a Baby Bjorn is (either does Danny Moder who uses it as a manbag) but instead opts for the Gucci baby carrier that comes in the beige or black GG for $760. We love the moms who remind us that being a mommy doesn't mean you have to live in Crayola technicolor hell. And it definitely helps now that having babies is so hip with celebrities the designers are making good stuff to accommodate the put-together moms!

Gucci 2009 cruise collection Large Babouska Hobo review

gucci-large-babouska-hoboGucci Large Babouska Hobo Even if every-fashion- person tries its heart out to convince everyone and their dog that the IT Bag is long dead, some still dare to promote must have totes.
Rihanna was chosen People's 2008 best dressed (maybe that's why she was rumored bankrupted not long ago) so all eyes are on her. Thus she was spotted with the Babouska Bag from the Gucci fall winter 2008 2009 collection.
The It collection for the It girl. The Boho Gucci Chic comes with an important price tag too: $2,295 and it's available in beige and ebony crystal. Let's cast them votes now (right after the pictures) : What do you think about Rihanna's Gucci Babouska Bag? Fug Or Fab?
The House of Gucci definitely gave their 100% effort, and more, to stand out from all the other premium designers for this coming fall season .Have you seen their latest design? Personally speaking, I am totally amazed at this perfect beauty!
Fashion rumor has it that the Gucci Fall Winter 2008 2009 Handbags are the new IT bags of the cold season 2008.
So just come on and follow me to check out this Gucci Babouska Large Hobo collection. Generally speaking, it's basically a simple yet classic hobo.
First of all, I fancy that soft brown leather very much. With an overabundance of dangling suede fringe running down the middle and a couple of pounds of brass studding details, this bag dooms to be a chic beauty. In addition, the signature heart-shaped Gucci crest charms are definitely important eye-catching points of all.
When it comes to my personal preferences, I would much rather prefer a bit large but light- weight bags. The seventeen by fifteen inch dimension of the hobo is just suitable for my daily needs. There is also an inside cell phone pocket which is very convenient.
This Gucci Babouska Hobo is available for $2,495 at Saks Fifth Avenue.

Gucci loves new york

gucci-loves-new-yorkWe are in New York and having a great time. I spent Sunday afternoon roaming around the city between shows (it was almost 50 degrees when I arrived, my friends say I brought the sunshine!) and soaking in the amazing energy of the greatest city on earth. I bring my toddler son here 3-4 times a year and he has grown to love "N'york", as he calls it. He especially loves going to the parks and many playgrounds the city has to offer. Like my son and I, Gucci loves New York, too! Gucci's brand new bag will salute the city it loves, 100% of the proceeds from the limited edition Gucci Loves NY bag will benefit the Playground Partners of the Central Park Conservancy. This donation will go towards the maintenance and operation of the 21 children's playgrounds in Central Park. For more information on the Conservancy, visit http://www.gucci.com To purchase the bag, please visit Gucci's new Flagship store at 725 Fifth Avenue.

Gucci Spring 2009 Handbag Collection Reviews

Frida Giannini, the designer for Gucci, is different from Milan's other female designers. There was absolutely no runway fantasia in her show, it was strictly ready to wear on the streets. While I applaud her pragmatic standpoint, I was a bit shocked that she only offered 3 handbag designs in this collection. There was an up-sized, slouchier, hand-stitched "New Jackie" (which is a fantastic handbag), a utilitarian backpack that transforms into a carryall, and a clutch. She did the "New Jackie" in every possible material from the GG logo to exotics like crocodile and snakeskin. One version had the GG logo with snakeskin front pockets. Same thing with the backpack, but the was only one version of the clutch (which I didn't really care for). The "New Jackie" is a classy and beautiful handbag and would look gorgeous with any outfit, especially a business suit. But with only one out of three designs that I liked from this collection, I thought the handbags were an overall disappointment. Especially after the horrible Fall 2008's Babouska collection. In Giannini defense she has steered the Gucci label in a more chic business like direction, so the lack of frills and wild color combinations makes sense, but I would have liked to see more variety. And do we really need a backpack?
