IN Love. From the stud detail to the fringe tassel to the fact that it can be worn two different ways, how could you not love this bag?
William Phillips Cammay Tote: $403
Yes, this bag has been discussed among handbag lovers, and I dig it as well. For me, fringe will always be an instant fashion must.
William Phillips Cowboy Harry: $347
Did I mention I dig fringe? Well, this has the added bonus of a kick-ass connector ring. In theory, love the idea. In reality, I’d for sure have issues with having to constantly slip my fingers out of the rings whenever I wanted to open my bag. I still give props to the idea though.
William Phillips Poison Fringe Clutch: $187
And I saved the best for last. Again, with the whole connected accessory, I feel like I’d forget the bag was even connected to my wrist which would result in some clumsy situations. Why yes that is a pseudo handcuff and those are prison stripes. It also has a fitting name… in more ways than one.
William Phillips La Vita LOHAN Prison Cluth: $290
E-robe.com describes William Phillips as…
a new Australian handbag label that caters for those fashion savvy girls who ooze style and love items with a point of difference. Fresh to the scene, this label is already stocked throughout the world and is assured to grow into the books of a Fashionista must haves.
Admittedly I haven’t been really paying attention to the handbag market since buying my two trustworthy bags — a Marc by Marc Jacobs satchel and tote — last year. Every time I get a new handbag I neglect my perfectly usable ones and really they never see the light of day after I come home with a brand new one. However, when I’m ready to invest in a new body sidekick, er, holder of all my crap, I’ll look to get one from William Phillips. Not only do they have a rock glam vibe, but they’re also reasonably budget-friendly. Score.
