First, she carries a glorious new Salina GM dressed in Juicy Couture sweats, and seriously, who wears sweats to an art exhibition??!! And now, we spotted Bhumika Puri once again carrying a fabulous bag, this time a patent black Chanel at the Indian Oaks event. Except, this time too, she teamed her fabulous bag with that hideous, printed, ruffled excuse of a top!

Is she hoping her bags would distract us from the clothes? It almost worked. Only, almost.

The Ballooning Trend

Summer of last year saw Cameron Diaz totting the fabulous and oh-so-happy Marni balloon bag in yellow, and its popularity seems to be riding just as high even now! And most designers seem to have caught onto the shape… look at the Balenciaga and Gucci bags from their spring 08 collections…

While I like it, its a great casual, day-bag, the only thing I find inconvenient about this shape is that anything you put in the bag seems to collect at the bottom and it takes major rummaging to find something! But then again, maybe its just me!

How utterly beautiful is this Yves Saint Laurent Minaudiere Satin Clutch?

A minaudière simply means a small, decorative handbag without handles or a strap. The clutch on the front has the YSL address, as if an envelope, ready to be mailed! The clutch comes in refined satin with brass frame and rhinestone twist-lock closure! Its so very chic without taking itself seriously!

An absolute respite from the Guccis and the Bottegas!! So Lustworthy at $1,395.

There’s a new book out, 101 Things To Buy Before You Die, by Charlotte Williamson and Maggie Davis! Of that, The Daily Mail has picked fifty items that no self-respecting millionaire should be without!

An interesting item that made that list, were handbags by Amishi which apparantly are very popular with the Bollywood types and are made with semi-precious stones and such! Take a look at some of them and see what you think…

.. for us anyway!

The book launch in question was the photo-essay book about Sunil and Nargis Dutt written by their daughters Priya and Namrata. As usual, not only were the who’s who of Mumbai present but also making an appearance were their bags!

We (Well Heeled and I) couldn’t stop “oooh-ing” the uber-expensive Bottega Veneta Lizard clutch carried by Gauri Khan. (Life is really good when you are SRK’s wife!)
