Tod's 'D-Bag' yellow satchel

I believe one of the reasons why Tod's remains one of the most trusted leather goods brands is because of their classic styles.  This Tod's 'D-Bag' satchel in bright yellow color is so simple... it is just the color that makes this more fun and current.  It has a no fuss style that will definitely keep you chic and classy for many years and seasons to come.

This bag is available at My Theresa for $1,518.

Bottega Veneta multicolor hobo

Doesn't it remind you of a resort?  This multicolored hobo by Bottega Veneta is from their 2011 Cruise Collection.  It is made of leather with woven accents and braided shoulder strap. You can get this at Neiman Marcus for $3,300 but shipping starts on February 22, 2011.  

Thomas Wylde leather chain shoulder bag

This Thomas Wylde shoulder bag is white as snow.  What I like about this is the chain strap that you can use as an alternative to the leather straps.  It is made of crocodile embossed napa leather, has a top zip closure, and printed fabric lining.  You can have this at The Outnet for $654 previously $2,180.

Kate Spade 'Book of the Month' clutches for a nerdy chic appeal

At first I thought these were real books and then I realized I was in Kate Spade's website so I had to take a second look.  Well, these are really clutches.  I think they are cute.  In fact, Natalie Portman was seen toting a book clutch (no idea if it is a Kate Spade) during the premiere of the Black Swan.

I think these 'Book of the Month' clutches by Kate Spade are a great accessory if you are feeling nerdy and chic at the same time.  Be sure you have read the real books, though.  These are $325 a piece.

Longchamp 'Roseau' tote

This Longchamp 'Roseau' tote would be perfect for my mom.  Her birthday is on December 25 (yes, she has the same birthday as Jesus) and I wanted to give her a very special present.  She likes loves bags and I think I  got my penchant for bags from her.  She actually gave me a Coach tote for my birthday last January.

If you are looking for a gift to give your mom this Christmas or for her birthday, you might want to consider this bag.  You can have this at Nordstrom for $495.  This is also available in black.
