Britney Spears has been cleaning up real nice. Both singles from her latest album ‘Circus’ are in the top 10 list, the sales of of the album has been good, she nailed good reviews with critics and performed consistently up to expectations live on TV too. Seems like everything is going back fine with her life and i am happy for her. Spears is carrying a Nancy Gonzalez Bowler in beautiful orange color at airport wearing a wide smile too. If you want the same piece of the bag as hers, get it from neimanmarcus.com for USD3,650. Shown here is the bag in Citrus green, also available in Fuschia and Vanilla color.

Jimmy Choo is one of the very few shoe designers who managed to cross over seamlessly and make it well in the world of handbags. The Monna tote might not have been as famous as its predecessor, Ramona but i actually like it better. The shape is simple but the design is still glam, the way any Jimmy Choos should be. For Resort 2009, there is neon green Monna tote in large size. I was already loving the design, material wise, the whole bag is made of smooth leather and rich suede combo (i have soft spot for leather) and now in this color, this bag will just get stuck in my head for a while. Should I? If you can’t resist it already, pre-order this at nordstrom.com for USD1,995.

When you could not have the real thing, you figure out a way to have it the other way, no? Apparently the folks at Bottega Veneta believe so and so they created the Ponza Fabric Shopper. BV is known best for its Interwoven leather bags but with such much-needed craftmanship and materials, the prices of their bags had to start from at least USD1,500 – not everyone could afford one. Seemingly, the other way to have it turns out to be by printing the woven pattern on a canvas. Maybe it is the time too, the way i see it, the house has finally given up to the temptation of appealing to the more mass market clientele. This piece is however still not really cheap at USD1,1,20 from barneys.com although it might make a good resort bag too. Would you get this Bottega Veneta shopper or would rather save up more for the real thing? Yay or Nay?
