It might not be as popular as the Muse, but Yves Saint Laurent's Y Satchel is yet another classic bag from the famous designer. At first glance, the satchel has a simple silhouette. However, as you look more closely, you'll see that the Y Satchel is anything but ordinary.
Intricate details on this Yves Saint Laurent exude the kind of quality that you only find on an expensive designer handbag. The tumbled patent leather gives the satchel a texture that is reminiscent of croco-embossing yet a little less predictable. The pebbled leather has an appealing, broken-in feel that looks more refined than a distressed material.
Another detail to admire on this satchel is the subtle, y-shaped seam that runs down the front and back of the bag. I suppose some might see this as obvious branding by Yves Saint Laurent, but the letter-shaped accent that gives the bag its name is far from garish. Instead it adds visual interest to the satchel. Look even closer, and you'll find more y-shaped details on the handle anchor seams.
Comfortable rolled leather handles and gold-colored hardware finish out the Y Satchel. This medium-sized handbag has a zip top closure and protective metal feet. You can also get this Yves Saint Laurent in turquoise. However, in my opinion, the pebbled texture is more striking on the basic black. Plus, every girl needs that one gorgeous designer bag that goes with everything. For around $1195, the Y Satchel will do just that.

The Coach Leather Julianne, part of the new Madison line, is designed to up the ante on Coach's signature traditional styles. Inspired by the energy and vibrant styles of Madison Avenue, the collection combines colorful variety with classic good looks. The imaginative color offerings, like magenta and teal, really stand out from Coach's many heavily-logoed, neutral palette designs. Of course, for those who can't do without the branding, there is the obvious, but not overly distracting Coach horse and carriage near the top of the bag.

Alexander McQueen took his inspiration for this bag from legendary screen siren, Kim Novak, famous for her smoldering role in Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo. Today, you will find this charmer on the arm of contemporary legends like Victoria Beckham. The Novak's combination of contemporary design and couture craftsmanship have made it an instant classic. Since its debut in 2005, it has become McQueen's flagship bag, and has spawned dozens of variations in color and fabric. Not since the
Marc Jacobs, who can usually do no wrong in the eyes of many modern fashionistas, has stirred up quite a controversy with his Rana (which means "frog" in Spanish) clutch. It's not the choice of skin that's got the ladies up in arms, (the delicate sheen of the kangaroo has received universal rave reviews) but the antique gold frog adornment. Although it has been seen hanging from the wrists of celebrities like Fergie and Cameron Diaz, not everyone is mesmerized by the crystal eyes of Marc Jacobs Rana.
