The world of baggage owes one to the celeb couple Brangelina. If you have to carry ridiculously over-sized luggage, go the Brad pit and Angelina way. The couple uses the Storksak category of bags for their baby. The huge bags should be more than enough to fit in all the baby necessities.

Not only these bags look cool but also they do a great job of keeping things together for the family. Currently, they are available online through the Rockinghorse site and can be bought for a price of $139. The Storksak’s clean and neatly arranged interior along with the multi-functional pockets make parents very happy.

The stuff that these Storksak bags use inside are basically thermo liners, which are geared towards keeping water bottles warm. They act as a water bottle parka. The bag also features a mobile phone holder as well as a laptop compartment. I think those are couple of great features to have in any large size bags.

If you are worried about style, listen to this. These bags are used by the Hollywood celebrities. The Jamie design of the Storksak bags was recently shouldered by Brad Pit as well as Matt Damon. So, if it woks for them it should work for you.

McQueen's Gold Tote winter collection http://www.madaboutbags.org/entry/gold-tote-by-alexander-mcqueen/ http://www.madaboutbags.org/entry/gold-tote-by-alexander-mcqueen/#comments Taarine am

Its winter - time for bright colors and shiny finishes. Accessories are meant to highlight and yet sometimes they become d’objet de art themselves. Such is the destiny of the gold leather Evie handbag by Alexander McQueen.

This large tote is a design classic, and is just made for holiday shopping. Its pleated exterior, rolled leather handles, a clasp closure all give it a unique look. The handbag has an interior zip pocket and it is fully lined.

The most fascinating about this tote is the color - a pale gold - which would team up with black clothing, and look nothing less than spectacular with shades of white.

At £ 930, the gold Evie bag by McQueen is available at Matches.

Curved zebra wood veneer clutch, elegance at its epitome http://www.madaboutbags.org/entry/curved-zebra-wood-veneer-clutch-elegance-at-its-epitome/ http://www.madaboutbags.org/entry/curved-zebra-wood-veneer-clutch-elegance-at-its-epitome/#comments khushi curved zebra wood veneer clutch
Why have this been named ‘curved zebra wood veneer clutch’, I can’t say. I would have rather named it, something like wooden bag. On a serious note, doesn’t it look like a patch of wood? Whatever, let me not debate on it, but to confess this piece is ultra cool. The gloss finesse that the bag has makes it luxurious and catchier. Not only a unique style it even has an affordable price which is $280. The bag is available in three colors, ivory, black and aloe. It measures 5H x 8W and offers you safety with its magnetic closure.

Marni unveils feathered evening bag http://www.madaboutbags.org/entry/marni-unveils-the-feathered-evening-bag/ http://www.madaboutbags.org/entry/marni-unveils-the-feathered-evening-bag/#comments apabritabasu marni

Feathers have been a big hit with the ladies all these years. The Marni Feathered Evening bag is the latest and the most popular model that exists today. When I looked up online, some of the sites labeled the bag : the handbag of the day.

I think the bag is cool by its look, as the unique feather design sort of blends with the soothing look of the bag. The pinkish appearance and the quality leather makes it look cool. I hope the strap is adjustable. If not, then it is too small.

Along with the grey latex and the Swarovski crystals, the bag comes with a heavy price tag. The female purse can be bought off for about $1100 bucks. I think that it’s a little upscale and pricy. The silk raso and rooster feathers are probably what make the bag pretty expensive. So if you are looking for a handbag, I would suggest Marni.

‘Big and Little Joss’, two awesome totes by Beatrix Ong http://www.madaboutbags.org/entry/big-and-little-joss-two-awesome-totes-by-beatrix-ong/ http://www.madaboutbags.org/entry/big-and-little-joss-two-awesome-totes-by-beatrix-ong/#comments khushi big little joss 2
Who thought ‘Beatrix Ong’ only designs elegant and awesome footwear? Well, you were wrong and I am here to add to your knowledge that the independent designer also designs accessories, yeah, even bags. Browsing through, I fell in love with the two simplest of designer bags. The bags have been named the ‘Big Joss’ and ‘Little Joss’ and they seriously deserve it, indeed they are such darlings. Where both are awesomely simple, they have an appeal. ‘Big Joss’ as the name suggests is the bigger version and can be sued for shopping sprees, office etc as it can carry lot of things. ‘Little Joss’ can be used as an evening bag too but I guess, it won’t look bad even in daytime. The colors palette used is pastel, giving both the bags a very cool and functional outlook. The bigger tote comes for £315 and the price tag of the little one reads £ 249.

Skull bag by Thomas Wylde, best for Halloween http://www.madaboutbags.org/entry/skull-bag-by-thomas-wylde-best-for-halloween/ http://www.madaboutbags.org/entry/skull-bag-by-thomas-wylde-best-for-halloween/#comments khushi thomas skull bag
Any biker babe or punk fan will love skulls. Well, somehow even I love skulls and I believe carrying them on is no easy deal as you need to have a lot off attitude for that. With Halloween approaching, there have been a lot of buzz with skulls and I can find them almost everywhere this bag seems just so perfect for Halloween and the fun part is that this canvas bag supports a lot of them yet you won’t be able to gather that from a distance or on the first look. If you look carefully, then only you will be able to see the skulls and gunmetal logo tags hanging at five (I guess) places. The bag also supports numerous pockets which is always an added advantage. There are pockets for almost every damn thing. The bag has been made from patent leather. Last but not the least the bag is by Thomas Wylde.The bag costs around $990. Be stylish!

I agree that life is all about moving ahead with time, but then again, its always worth to look back and enjoy the beauty of the glorious past. This retro-style tote bag gives us the chance to pay homage to the golden era of the analog cassette tapes.

And to make it even more lovable, the tote folds flat enough to be tucked inside one of your large pockets.

The lovable tote sells for $14.99.

Fashion changes at a very fast pace, but there are some things which endure the swift motion of this change and keep their identity intact. I’m sure these limited edition handbags from De Couture are destined to stay with us forever.

De Couture is a fashion collaboration project between accessories designer Vinciane Stouvenaker and apparel designer Massimo Mariotti. The result of their joint effort is a highly impressive collection of Haute couture handbags. Made from 100% patent leather, each of these hand-stitched bags are synonymous with elegance and sophistication.

The box-style bags feature intricately done details in bold stitching. I love the gold-tone fittings, especially the hinge detail on the strap. The bags are available in two choice of colors - black and off-white. There are only 50 bags in each color, and each bag comes with a special tag with a unique serial number stamped on it.

The De Couture limited edition handbags sell for $1,495 at aloharag.

Get one now, and flaunt it forever.

Flip and Tumble's 24-7 Gorcery Bag: It shrinks into a ball when not in use! http://www.madaboutbags.org/entry/flip-tumbles-24-7-gorcery-bag-it-shrinks-into-a-ball-when-not-in-use/ http://www.madaboutbags.org/entry/flip-tumbles-24-7-gorcery-bag-it-shrinks-into-a-ball-when-not-in-use/#comments aneezshaikh flip tumbles 24 7 gorcery bag
Now, this is the kind of bag that I like to carry. Its a huge grocery bag that comes with an attached storage pouch.

Flip & Tumble’s 24-7 grocery bag measures 12″ x 14″ x 5″ and comes with a 26.5″ long strap, but drastically shrinks in size and turns into a 3″ diameter ball when not in use. Made of lightweight nylon ripstop, the 24-7 is sturdy enough to hold up to 20 lbs. The comfortable shoulder pads encourage you to fill it to the maximum without worrying about straining your shoulders. It is the ideal bag for instinctive buyers.

The trendy bag is available in four colors - brown, black, teal or neon lime. Each bag costs $15.

Preorder your 24-7 from Flip & Tumble.

Peacock colored tote from Roberta Di Camerino http://www.madaboutbags.org/entry/peacock-colored-tote-from-roberta-di-camerino/ http://www.madaboutbags.org/entry/peacock-colored-tote-from-roberta-di-camerino/#comments khushi roberto 1
Call them Peacock colors or the rainbow colors; I just love the whole range of them. Their pastel shades and even the striking contrasts are equally appealing, so, whatever I am never able to ignore them. This purse has both an original and a fake version. The original one costs way too much which simply means I have to ignore it and keep my eyes open to find some resembling one. Well, the piece is one of the creations of Roberta di Camerino. The bag looks big enough and thus, would be able to accommodate enough. The design and colors are so nice that it can be used on a shopping spree and even on a beach side. Anyways, for those who can afford to spend big on such beautiful designs, this ones comes hard and worthy at $998.00.

MatildaMatilda’s Glitter Heart bag: It's stylish http://www.madaboutbags.org/entry/a-stylish-bag-called-glitter-heart-by-matildamatilda/ http://www.madaboutbags.org/entry/a-stylish-bag-called-glitter-heart-by-matildamatilda/#comments hemrajsingh bag1

When it comes to fashion there is hardly anything that cannot be used as a ‘fashion statement’ and handbag is certainly a part of a woman’s personality. A woman is so often talked in terms of how she ‘carries herself’, which not only refers to whether or not she walks with her head held high but also to what she is wearing and carrying.

In this sense, handbag turns into an extension of her personality. And many companies have recognized it. MatildaMatilda is one of them. It has recently launched a great handbag called Glitter Heart by designers Otto et Moi. The bag is around 20 × 17cm and costs 110 €.

The world of fashion seems to be in flux, which a pleasant news.
