I received an email about the Derek Lam Spring/Summer 2010 Collection Sale and began browsing the website to fantasize over what I would buy if I had a little extra cash to burn.  I found plenty of sale items to choose from at 40% off, but then came across the most beautiful bag in a creamy ivory deerskin leather. The Cervo Blanche Bucket Bag has an asymmetrical front pocket detail which immediately caught my eye.  It has double top handle with a detachable chain shoulder strap and inside and outside pockets. Price: $1,750 at Derek Lam.

I have found a new favorite handbag designer by the name of Onna Ehrlich. Her collections include so many beautifully designed handbags made from carefully chosen fabrics, leather and custom hand-done beadwork made in USA. What I appreciate most about Onna Ehrlich is her ability to draw inspiration from her Nigerian heritage to create handbags with such vibrant colors and fresh silhouettes. Pictured below are some of my favorites.

Chris Tassel Clutch in red patent, $245 and Rosy Clutch in silver, $362

Bode Patent Croco Tote in purple, $550 and Vanessa Croco Shoulder Bag in gray, $520

Francoise Croco Bowler Bag, $650 and Rachel Hobo, $650

Onna has been featured in countless fashion magazines, and has a celebrity following including Halle Berry, Lindsay Lohan, Marcia Cross and Eva Longoria, to name a few. Onna donates a portion of the proceeds from the Onna Ehrlich collection to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation and AIDS projects. To view the entire collection, visit OnnaEhrlich.com.

Definition of Fetish: An abnormally obsessive preoccupation or attachment; a fixation.

Okay so what if I told you that you could save 28% on this Prada bag at Bluefly.com? Does that make the wheels start churning? Are you thinking, what color should I pick out this time? Are your palms a little sweaty and are you a little aggravated that someone is perhaps trying to get your attention? That’s what happens to me when I’m one-track minded about obtaining a new handbag. It’s like please shhh so I can think… did you hear what she just said? 28% extra off Prada, Hel-lo!!! LOL.

No need to panic, there will be more than enough to choose from. My favorite color… shades of Green. Prada calls this one, “Clover”. The beauty is in the details, it’s a textured patent calfskin with polished goldtone hardware.It promises to get anyone’s attention who’s more than 50 feet away. Very shiny and noticeable, don’t you think?. I love it! Don’t you dare miss this sale. Are you kidding me? I love bluefly- they make it so any and everyone can have at it. They’re not afraid of a sale…

There’s gotta be some luck in your pocket once you grab ahold of this Clover! Happy shopping! (Prada Clover Textured Patent Large Bowler, Price: $1,220.40)

I have come to the conclusion that every woman should have a red handbag in their wardrobe. It looks fantastic against neutrals and it’s synonymous with power. The Tusk E/W Framed Satchel is a simple yet sexy handbag. I rarely refer to a handbag as sexy – it’s the super glossy Italian leather that really makes a statement. Price: $265 at Tusk.com

I am in love with Emilio Pucci’s Frame Evening Bag. I don’t know if it’s the cute shape, the color combination or the plexi bangle wristlet. Made with silk fabric and fully lined in silk, this bag is now on my spring wishlist. Price: $995 at Saks.

Who can make any woman sexy in quality made 5 inch heels? That’s right – Christian Louboutin. Although he is best known for his red-bottomed shoes, Christian Louboutin’s design savvy also includes handbags. Professional women all over should be thanking him for this creation which shouts “I am a phenomenally fashionable professional woman!” Made of calf leather and silvertone hardware, this is yet isn’t your everyday bowler bag. Even if you are not yet at professional status, toss this over your arm while wearing a tailored suit. Bring a few extra copies of your resume along just in case. Retails at $1995.00 at www.bergdorfgoodman.com
