This bag has structured and irregular hand-stitched cannage embroidery which may create 3D effect, but it is still on its iconic signature cannage quilting design. It also has polished and delicate silver-tone metal DIOR hanging on one side of its handle. Beside its exquisite design, it is also functional with a size of 11¼ x 13¼ x 6¼ inches, there is a main zipped pocket, one open and one mobile phone pocket interior where you can put your stuffs separately and clearly. You can also choose to carry in your hands or over the shoulder with two short handles and a long strap.

It is available in two colors, pearl grey and black, I think pearl grey is more suitable for the hot days while black may go well and easily with any color of your outfits. Look at the pictures above, both of Mrs. Kutcher and Blake choose the black one, and they look casual as well as elegant by carrying it in the hands and over the shoulder.

Christian Dior is well known for its elegant and classic designs. As one of Christian Dior Fall and Winter 2008 Ready-to-wear Collection, Christian Dior Pink Dior 61 Flap Bag gave a brand new look for this fashion house as to its shining color.

Crafted out of fresh pink grained leather, it features metal embroideries and colored stones on the flap which add some color to its single pink, and this is what I like best and gives its total design a feminine look. There is also a gold-tone metal and pink leather D letter hanging on one side of its handle and matches well with its metallic handle. With only one handle, I think it can only be carried in the hands.

Besides its distinctive design, it is also functional. Sized at 40×30×19cm, it features one zipped pocket and two flat pockets especially for your small stuffs. I think it is quite suitable for your daily use, and I like its color, as it looks romantic and lovable. I would like to match it with my lovable dress or some cute ensembles and take it to my friend’s party or go shopping. It must attract others’ attention.

Recently I found a fantastic handbag— Christian Dior Cherie Large Bag which is quite suitable for summer use. When I first saw it, I fall in love with its blue color, as it brings me cool and fresh in the hot days.

Crafted from supple canvas, “Cannage” printed with embroidery effect, it has silver toned DIOR letters hanging on one side of the handles. The distinctive design of it is its knotted leather handles which I think it adds some summer and seaside feelings to its total design. Sized at 28×32×15cm, it is large enough to hold daily accessories with one large zipper pocket, one flat pocket and one cell phone pocket. You can put your things separately and clearly.

Though the total design is simple, it is still worthy to have one with its delicate craftsmanship and high quality materials. Personally I think this bag, especially its blue color, is quite suitable for travelling at the sea. Enjoying the sunshine and the sea wind and having such a great bag at the side is a pleasure thing. I would like to choose my favorite dress and flower sandals to match it.

Dior Two-Textured Leather Satchel.jpg

When you firstly saw Christian Dior Two-Textured Leather Satchel, it is not easy for you to relate it with Christian Dior. As to its unique shape, gothic buckles and unusual texture, this satchel gives a brand new looking to Dior.

Made from pebble leather and croc-textured leather, it has grommet and buckle detailing with bold black shape which adds some sophisticated and unusual design to its totality, as it belongs to a 1980s Vivienne Westwood inspiration — the 80s is definitely back. It is really a fantastic as well as practical handbag. Sized at 20 x 11 x 4 inches, it is large enough to hold necessary daily stuffs. Opening through the flap snap closure with oversized decorative buckle, you may find interior is well lined by nylon.

Now I want to introduce a Christian Dior Medium Shopper to you. If you like wild safari decorating your accessories, this bag may be your best choice. As to its classic design, it is not easy to go out of the trend and could be used all through the years.

Made of the beige calf leather which matches well with the haircalf panther print on the inside, it has some silver tone hardware to complete its totality and ruffled details that go well with the drawstring closure. There is also a D logo hanging on the front of the bag and chain detail and rings on the shoulder strap, all of which add some luxury and elegance to its all design.

I think this medium shopper is suitable for more neutral ensembles, and lady who has experienced so many things in one’s life can best express this bag. As its beige calf leather is a neutral shad that could work for every season as well, it could be hold all year round. I suggest that you wear some elegant combo shirt dress with matching heels by holding this Christian Dior Medium Shopper.

Romantic Dior Lilac New Lock Bag

Tuesday, June 1st, 2010

Last time I have introduced a similar kind handbag– Dior Lilac Leather Soft Bag. Today, I would like to bring the Dior Lilac New Lock Bag which also looks feminine and romantic and would definitely bring in some glamour to your appearance with its delicate design. This line owes its name to the New Look invented by Christian Dior in 1947, and to the new sophisticated and original clasp.

It is made from supple lambskin in lilac color and features cannage stitching and new double press-stud clasp in silver-tone metal engraved with “Dior” at the front of the bag which adds elegance and luxury to its all design. Sized at 26 × 18 × 12, it is obviously large enough to hold daily accessory with three compartments and one zippered pocket.

I quiet like its color which is perfect for spring and summer use. I think it may match well with some spring-featured dresses and must be very attracting when I go shopping or have dinner with it. With sophisticated looking and high quality design, it is definitely a gorgeous and functional handbag, though it is priced at £1,000, I think it is worthy of having one for your handbag collection.
