Burberry Prorsum SS12 - Kingfisher bag

On the look out for a bag to brighten up your Spring look? We love this turquoise-blue clutch by Burberry Prorsum which would be fit for the job! The raffia-style weave feels really fresh and the tan trim highlight sit's well together with the blue. It's a very chic piece which will no doubt be a stand out  fashion forward addition to your bag collection! See more details and pictures on the Matches website.

Moschino SS12 - Large Shoulder bag

Here are a few picks from the new Spring/Summer12 collection from Moschino's new range. We really like the classic tote shape which has been interpreted in several different ways. The whip stitch detailing really works well and reflects the equestrian metal hardware featured on the bags. As usual they always have a quirky option for those who like the bold prints and bright colours! The lilac colourway with navy contrast edge works well and is our favourite from the  selection we have made! Also check out a campaign shot below and a backstage snap by Morgan O Donovan.

Balenciaga Leopard tote

We love a bit of leopard print and found this gorgeous tote from Balenciaga. It's a classic statement piece and one of those bags you can use on a daily basis and just throw everything in! We spotted it on FarFetch.com which has become one of our favourite sites as it brings together designer luxury boutiques from around the world. We've been lucky enough to visit these boutiques in person including Tenoversix boutique in L.A shown below! A lovely store with distinctive accessories and a great selection of shoes.. We like! :)

Louis Vuitton Spring 2012 Bags

We love the new collection from Loius Vuitton's Spring 2012 offer! Marc Jacobs has avoided the bright colours and opted for a sophisticated palette to go with the chic hand crafted totes and shoulder bags. The bone coloured shoulder bag below with the mint leather trim really works well and feels fresh for the new season. The coral also stands out as a key shade to go for as a highlight.

The Croc texture works well in the blue and light yellow below. The lady like shapes are clean cut and the white trim makes them key statement looks from the collection.

The classic signature LV monogram look is updated in these boxy cross body bags with chain handles. They are ultra sleek and a staple in any fashionista's wardrobe! For those of you who like the sports luxe look, the styles below will be ideal to finish a chic sportswear ensemble.

The classic tote is updated in a transparent guise, adorned with the LV signature logo which can be paired with a semi-formal and casual look. This makes it a versatile style and will surely turn some heads!! The boxy tote in navy with the soft white trim nods to the nautical look and would look very sophisticated with right combination of clothing. Overall we are excited about this collection and look forward to seeing the high summer treats they have in store for us! Watch this space! :)
