2012 SS Colors: Macaroons

Bagopedia can't stop looking at this Reed Krakoff Boxer and, worse, Christmas is coming. I have been admiring the RK Boxer bag but haven't had one yet. This color combination is the best yet so far. Not only does it look delicious but also feels great. The price is amazing for such a beautiful bag.

Some stores start to shelf SS 2012 bags and accessories. Bagopedia notices that color trends are, I call, Marcaroons!

Reed Krakoff GYM Bag I: A Juicy Green Apple

Price: $890.00

Where to Buy: reedkrakoff.com

Who Carries it: January Jones,

Bagopedia's Rating: 4 Bags (Out of 5)

Bagopedia's Comment: President and Creative Director of Coach, Reed Krakoff brand was launched by Coach in 2010. Krakoff offers amazing design with very affordable prices.

Bagopedia loves Krakoff's Boxer bag. The GYM I bag is my second love. The GYM I has a soft nappa shell in grass green (or many other colors) with black nickel hardware. For sure Bagopedia won't use it as a GYM bag. Maybe I will carry it for a while then use it as a GYM bag.

See how beautiful January Jones carries it:

Bagopedia is Back!

Bagopedia spent a week in New York reviewing bags for this coming fall and winter. That is the only reason why I haven't been updating this blog for a week. Bagopedia saw about 200 bags. There are some that I find interesting (Top left clockwise):

Reed Krakoff Boxer Snakeskin and Leather-Detailed Canvas Tote$950.00

YSL Muse Two Oversized Leather Tote: $2,295.00

Louboutin Sweet Charity Studded Leather Bag: $1,395.00

Jason Wu Miss Wu Medium Two-Tone Leather Tote: $1,995.00

Jimmy Choo Gaia Leather Tote: $1,495.00

Bottega Veneta Frayed Intrecciato Leather Bag: $2,280.00

After seeing them in real helps me writing reviews. I have taken photos, taken notes, touched and opened them, so I have a good sense of how the new coming bags look like, smell like, and feel like.

Which one is your pick?

Bagopedia's Rating: 5 Bags (Out of 5)

Bagopedia's Comment: This timelessly elegant bag is carried by Bagopedia myself. Bagopedia calls it "The Birkin from PRADA". I have it for a while. It is worth every penny! It is a perfect size for work, weekend, shopping, and travel. Slightly larger than a A4 size. Perfect for files and laptops. The stamp leather is scratch resistance. It looks good with work clothes as well as flats and jeans. Many colors to choose from.

Bagopedia's Comment: Meet Reed Krakoff Boxer. The bag Bagopedia has been waiting for- a classic look at a reasonable price tag. The bag is so beautiful that Bagopedia myself can't take my eyes away from it. Bagopedia loves the fake flap design. It has a flap look but doesn't make your life busy with the flap. Instead, they put a zipper so you can access your stuff easily. This bag is beautiful with many nice detail including the snakeskin trims. The canvas shell is perfect for this coming summer. The creme color is more manageable than a pure white bag.
