Yes! A photo was found proving Jimmy Choo’s oversized clutch indeed is a day clutch, by my standards.

Here is Victoria “Posh” Beckham with Jimmy Choo’s Fold-Over “Day” Clutch. Styled similarly to the Mahala and Marcia bags, the Fold-Over Clutch features black leather, bronze hardware, a wristlet strap and of course that square ring on front. And yes, it does fold over - at the zipper.

Selling for $1,250 (a bit much, but it is big) this purse is available now at Neiman Marcus.

… Now to find a more affordable day clutch in a day color.

Coach has actually made an accessory line printed with a red/pink fragrance theme in celebration of their new perfume. They’ve also made up a limited edition compilation of the LE Jasmine XL Straw “Basket” bag filled with pieces from the line, plus a pair of shades and the exclusive to the “gift basket”, bronzer compact (which I think is a pretty awesome little beauty case).

The main feature of this LE gift set is the Jasmine XL Straw Basket ($998 separately, limited on its own as well) which features a rounded body of straw, orange leather and snake skin trim, brass hardware with ringed full-height straps and fragrance-print lining with 5 interior pockets. It’s sized 24″ x 13.5″ x 10.5″!
The official list of items included is: Fragrance-print crusher hat, beach towel, Framed coin purse, Patti sunglasses, and an exclusive Bronzer Set in the Fragrance Print Case.

The cost of the package is $1600 (eek) too steep for me even though I’d love to own this, but instead I can pick up a little piece of the “fragrance” line separately. My choice is the unique “Brush case” which can be used as a beauty case or even a clutch! Love it. If you can’t get the package, which is in limited quantities, perhaps look on eBay for that exclusive bronzer, as I will. (No low price guarantee, though.)

If you have the cash/budgeting and love for Coach or just plain cute accessories, go for it, it’s sold online at coach.com or in select boutiques, but you can always have it shipped free by calling your favorite store location/favorite SA.

What a nice way to come back to blogging - go over what I’ve missed while holed up in bed! Here is my fave from the bag blogs over the past week.

$100,000 Diamond Alligator Clutch
With genuine 18 carat white gold hardware, 1500 white and black genuine diamonds and metallic alligator skin - this clutch is extreme. And only 1 is made every year. I’ve got to thank Bag Snob Kelly, because during the truly awful Friday afternoon I had, this cheered me up a bit.

ASOS added 10 actual designer bags to their store inventory, and we think that’s noteworthy. Shop via The Bag Lady.

The Valentino bags are coming! They’re so posh and feminine, all the bloggers love them! The Sweetheart bag has Betty-esque chain straps, but with a softer body and the Rosette Hobo has flowers made out of leather! Via Purseuing and the Purse Page, respectively, click on purse titles.

Can you name Lindsay Lohan’s croc purse? Well, is it the Lanvin Hero or what? Via the Purse Blog.

I’m back from my vaca, then illness. The forum has been having problems, but some time this week it will be back up - at a new location and in a different format, but the content and member data will remain. It will be even better, too!

And this is all because of Spam. Evil spam! Well I’ll see you in a little bit for another full week of posting!
