①
The new collection from Balenciaga this season really surprised me! The bag styles are super bold and incredibly cool!
For example, the Glove tote bag caused a sensation as soon as it appeared on the runway. Its exaggerated and fun design instantly captivated fashion enthusiasts from all walks of life.
The oversized tote bag is already big and eye-catching enough, not to mention it’s paired with long gloves that can wrap around the entire arm.
It’s definitely the center of attention wherever you go.
What’s even cooler is that this bag also comes in a bright and vibrant pink color, combining eye-catching hues with a playful design. It looks absolutely mind-blowing!

In addition to the Glove bag, the metal version of the Hourglass handbag is also worth checking out! The entire surface of the bag is plated with brass metal, including the logo, giving it a remarkably avant-garde and fashionable look.
The Hourglass bag already has a strong silhouette, and the metallic material further accentuates its sharp lines.
The final price of this bag at $22,840 does seem quite staggering!
Question: How do you feel about the pricing of the Hourglass bag? Reasonable for you?

Next, I’m going to introduce the new bag that Dior just launched, the CD Signature bag!
The large CD logo on the front of the bag seamlessly blends with the rounded silhouette, exuding a luxurious feel while maintaining its distinctiveness. Paired with a chunky metal chain, the overall style is both cool and elegant, leaving a favorable impression.
The bag has great versatility in terms of styling. It can effortlessly complement casual everyday looks, as well as elevate elegant and glamorous outfits. It can even be worn on important occasions without any hesitation.
I particularly love the chain design of this bag as well! The dazzling CD logo metal chain links adorned on the leather shoulder strap not only enhance the bag’s exquisite appearance but also easily become the focal point of an entire look.
The Dior CD Signature is available in both the Oblique print version and the full leather version.
The Oblique print design offers a more casual and street-style vibe. On the other hand, the full leather version accentuates the bag’s delicate and glossy texture, exuding the luxurious temperament that is characteristic of Dior handbags.
Question: Which one do you prefer?

Chloé has introduced a new bag called Penelope for this spring/summer, and it’s definitely worth a look!
The trapezoidal shape of the bag appears sturdy yet soft, giving an overall warm and gentle impression. It exudes a reliable and practical vibe, making it highly appealing.
With the leather braided rope and playful tassel embellishments, the Penelope bag exudes a casual and romantic French charm. When worn, it has a relaxed and effortlessly chic vibe that is particularly enchanting.
Currently, this bag has been released in several sizes for you to choose from.
If you’re looking for something lightweight for the summer, consider the newly launched Mini Size, which adds a touch of playfulness and delicacy to your outfit, while still allowing you to embrace a carefree and effortless style.

Time flies, and now it’s already June!
The Mini 31 Bag from Chanel’s Métiers d’Art 2023 (23A) Collection that everyone has been waiting for is finally available for purchase!
The Mini 31 Bag, condensed into a smaller size, perfectly retains its nostalgic and vintage charm, and when worn, it still exudes sophistication and luxury.
And even though it’s a mini size, this bag actually has a decent capacity! It can easily fit a large smartphone, everyday touch-up makeup items, and small accessories like earphones.

I must say, although Gucci’s new creative director hasn’t officially joined the design team yet, the bags from the Cruise 2024 Collection are absolutely fantastic!!!
Among all the bags, my favorite is the irregular-shaped Horsebit 1955!
The Horsebit 1955, known for its classic and vintage design, has taken a fun and playful twist, making it incredibly adorable. The unconventional design is truly eye-catching! It adds a touch of playfulness and injects a cool vibe into the overall aesthetic of the bag.
What’s even more impressive is that the Horsebit hardware in the middle adapts to the shape of the bag, creating a harmonious beauty in its irregularity when paired together.

Last month, the Fendi by Marc Jacobs collection made a grand debut. Fashionable celebrities from all walks of life have been spotted wearing them.
To be honest, I didn’t have a strong feeling about this collection at the beginning.
However, as time went on, the more I looked at it, the more I realized how truly beautiful it is, especially this black Soft Trunk Baguette.
The structure of the bag and the black and white color combination give it a more rugged and cool vibe.
Even though it’s categorized as a men’s bag, it can be a great fit for women too.
In addition to that, the collaboration between Fendi and Yi ethnicity artisans from China for the Baguette bag is particularly captivating.
The incorporation of traditional Yi ethnicity hand embroidery and silver accessories infuses the bag with a strong ethnic charm and cultural flair.

The Galleria bag that was once a dream bag for many is making a heavyweight comeback recently!
And to top it off, they even brought in the formidable Scarlett Johansson for a stunning photoshoot, instantly elevating the bag’s aura to the max!
However, unlike the traditional impression of the Galleria bag, the latest special edition Galleria incorporates geometric elements into its design.
There are a total of 8 different color-blocked options, with contrasting colors that instantly catch the eye!
Each bag feels infused with a rich artistic atmosphere, making them truly captivating.
And it’s been said that each color combination of the special edition is extremely limited worldwide! Coupled with the higher price, this truly makes it a collector’s item, indicating that the women who can acquire this bag likely possess substantial financial resources.
Alright, that’s all for the new bag updates!
