Kate Moss's relationship with Longchamp has been extended beyond eight seasons of modeling. We recently gave you a sneak peek of the Super's new bag, now here's more. There are three sub-collections: Rock'N Casual, Rock'N Travel, and Rock'N Glam. These two buckled satchels are part of the Rock'N Casual collection. There are also a few shots of Kate surrounded by her beautiful babies. She isn't into flashy logos, and her creations prove that.

Marilyn Minter's Green Pink Caviar Tote Bag: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 03:00:22 -0700

If Marilyn Minter's sticky and sweet Green Pink Caviar video for Madonna left you wanting more, check out this Marilyn Minter Tote Bag ($48). The still image of the tongue in full thrust - complete with gold goo - isn't as crazy as the video scene, but it's still racy. In fact, if you buy the tote this month, proceeds will go to Bright Pink, a nonprofit breast and ovarian cancer organization. Charitable indeed, but is that enough to make you want to purchase it?

Tom Binns's Arm Candy

FabSugar — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 11:00:22 -0700

There's more reason to love jewelry extraordinaire Tom Binns now that he has branched into the world of leather goods - yay! Details are still under wraps, but we do know his luxe leather line will debut in the Spring and will include a white leather bag adorned with metal studs. It will come in three different sizes and be priced between $650 to $1,850.

But that's not all. Binns has also created a soccer-themed collection of jewelry and bags with Puma, which will be available for the World Cup, along with designing a limited-edition, crucifix-embellished "Sunday" handbag with Corto Moltedo. Somewhere between all of his collaborations, he found time to make a line of eccentric wearable sculptures that will shown at the Art Basel Miami in December. Binns is one busy man.

Would You Order a Custom Jonathan Adler Design?

Jonathan Adler took the design world by storm with his graphic, happy-chic needlepoint pillows and hand-loomed rugs. Now, he's taken his trendy accessories to the next level, putting design in the hands of shoppers with a new customizing service.

The problem is that Adler's brand presence is undeniable, and whether you choose an orange, Greek key patterned rug or a blue Union Jack pillow, you'll still see him through and through. Would you order one of these custom items?

Simple Tip: Keep Reusable Totes in Your Trunk

YumSugar — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 12:50:50 -0700

From drinking less bottled water to making more educated seafood choices, I've been all about adopting a greener lifestyle. But simple as it sounds, the one thing I could never quite nail down was bringing reusable totebags to the grocery store.

Every Sunday, without fail, I'd pull into my local Trader Joe's, and catch the "Don't forget to bring your reusable bags!" sign in the parking lot, only to realize that I'd left all of my totebags at home. After repeating this mistake too many times to count, I finally collected all of my market totes and put them in the trunk of my car. Now, I have an array of bag sizes that come in handy not just for my weekly groceries, but also for takeout, dinner party leftovers, and anything else you can imagine.

Where do you keep your reusable bags, so you don't forget them?

Two Bucks Reduces Clutter When Reusing Shopping Bags

PetSugar — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 14:15:04 -0700

Even though plastic bags were outlawed at San Francisco supermarkets and retail pharmacies back in November 2007, there are still stores that offer these bags –– or compostable alternatives – with takeout or other purchases. Since, I want to make the most of those bags I do take while out and about, I'm storing them in this pretty pink Rationell Variera dispenser ($2) from IKEA.

That way, when I'm not toting a leash with a Bags On Board or BonTon attached, I can stash one of these sacks in the drawer of his carseat or carrier pocket and eliminate clutter under my sink to continue Spring cleaning even when the season's over.

Trend Alert: Bag It Bohemian Style

FabSugar — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 06:00:22 -0800

Another wild trend for Spring in the realm of Luxotica is bohemian bags. These embellished handbags will instantly perk up any ensemble with their hippie-meets-tribal aesthetic. I like how they give off an ethnic vibe without going over the top, especially when paired with a neutral palette. This Diane von Furstenberg Wrap Bag ($1,495) is a seamless balance between funky and fabulous. I can already see myself pairing this bag with cut-off shorts, a white tee, and chunky platform sandals . . .

Trend Alert: Perforation

FabSugar — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 09:00:22 -0800

The act of perforation consists of "a hole or series of holes punched or bored through something, especially a hole in a series, separating sections in a sheet or roll." The look of perforation is dope. Something so complicated produces an uncomplicated look, a look of sportif. This treatment is popping through shoes, bags, and belts. It's an ideal transitional look that's not quite warm weather nor cold.
