Wishlist: Small Frame Bags

Some trends literally make me grimace in terror (cough*clogs*cough), while with others I am instantly drawn and…sold. Such is the case with the new non-it-it-bag – The Small Frame Bag. Having watched my Style Fille fave Diane Kruger toting the above Hermès version for a while now, I’ve made a mental note to keep my eye open for a mere mortal affordable option for myself. But once I’ve spotted one at Zara, the flurry of doubts clouded my judgement and I walked away empty handed.

My main concern? Lack of space. In our ever-so-fast-paced world of iPhones, iPads, and other useless-ish crap, I find myself struggling with an idea of a small frame bag. There’s just too much stuff I tote around on a daily basis to be able to minimize it all to fit into a tiny rectangle of leather. So I ask you, stylish Style Blog readers, do you think small frame bags’ chicness outweighs their lack of practicality? Take the poll below!

What do you think about the new Small Frame Bag trend?

Cutest Couple Ever!

I’ve professed my love for Josh and Diane many times before, but still…they are my favorite Hollywood couple, and I couldn’t not share these photos with you. Here’s Joshua Jackson and Diane Kruger loving it up in Paris and New York City, looking cute and stylish in the process.

In other Diane news, according to WWD, Calvin Klein Inc. and Coty Inc. will reveal today that Diane Kruger — who will be attending tonight’s Costume Institute opening at the Metropolitan Museum of Art with Calvin Klein’s Francisco Costa — is the face of the brand’s newest fragrance, Calvin Klein Beauty, due out this fall. Kruger will appear in print and television advertising, and joins a long list of notables who have appeared in Calvin Klein fragrance advertising, including Kate Moss, Scarlett Johansson and Eva Mendes.”

So happy! Because that means we’ll be seeing much more of the German beauty, and hopefully her adorable boyfriend too!

Hermès, McQueen, and G-Star…Oh, My!

Spring 2010 ads have been steadily pouring in for over a month now, and in the midst of even mild winter, here in Toronto, it’s quite nice to look at the beautiful Spring collections and dream of what’s ahead! Karlie Kloss’ stint for Hermès is one of my favorites – those scarves, that hair, the locale. Such a dreamy paradise shot!

And then there’s Raquel Zimmermann for Alexander McQueen. What a brave girl! The collection, which was full of reptile prints on the runway, translates quite well into the printed ads, featuring the slithery, yet beautiful creatures, and of course, Raquel wrapped up in their cold-blooded embrace. Now that’s what I call professionalism. Because if those snakes were slithering anywhere near me…don’t even want to imagine! Though I must admit, the McQueen ad is definitely one of the more eye-catching and stunning photographs I’ve seen lately!

Which one of the Spring ads is your favorite?

Hermès 16 Ways

elle hermes3

Hermès scarf that is! I don’t know about you, but I always struggle to tie my scarves in creative ways. Sure I’ve tied it around my wrist, waist, head, purse handles, and my neck. But there’s limited skill to my scarf-tying. Thanks to Elle Magazine, that is no longer a problem. Here’s 16 different ways of tying your Hermès (or not) scarf!
