YSL Chyc Cabas

It is official that the YSL Chyc Cabas is the current It bag! It also happens to be THE bag that has saved me from the recent boredom in the bag industry. The Chyc bags from YSL have been in our radar for a while now, at least the tote and shoulder bag but the cabas seems to have found its way to the arms of fashion darlings, such as Sienna Miller, Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman, Leighton Meester and Salma Hayek. Even the French first lady, Carla Bruni has been seen toting this bag recently. The bag has all the potential to be the new classic like Tod’s D bags and Celine Luggage. Everytime the industry reaches a new low excitement, we should all just leave it to the house of YSL to put another It bag onto the map. Price starts from USD1,995 from YSL stores.

Nobody does trendy and IT bags like the house of Fendi. Combining two biggest trend of the season – small shoulder flap bag and colorblocks, Fendi’s latest offering might be THE only bag you need for the entire Spring and Summer of 2011. Do I like this bag? Generally I am not a sucker for a shoulder flap bag but it is a cute bag to own for this season so if you happen to be a trendy dresser, this item is a must-have! Price is USD1,680.

Fendi Silvana Bag

It is early into the year 2011 yet Fendi has already has a candidate for its “It” bag this year. Inspired by the late Italian actress, Silvana Mangano, the Fendi Silvana  has been dubbed by French Vogue as one of the “It” bags of this year since its first appearance on Fendi S/S2011 runway show last year. The bag itself is still heavily influenced by vintage style and is structured but the color blocking adds a refreshing touch onto the bag and makes it adorable. Price starts from EUR1,000 and this version with croc skin is priced ar EUR4,600 at luisaviaroma.com.
