Sadly though I think the passion might be fading.

For some time now we've marveled at the way Juicy Couture has moved from tacky pink velour accessories to much more refined handbags. However in my opinion this wallet is a step backwards. The velour is back, and so is the over-embellished design. Did we really need all those charms, and the large tassel on the zipper? On a larger wallet the details may have worked, but here it seems like way too much.

In contrast to its exterior, the Go Steady's main compartment is very basic. There are no pockets, no credit card slots, nothing but fabric lining. That makes it perfect for some coins and your keys, but not a lot else.

I suppose we should be grateful the Go Steady's not pink, but that's small consolation really. While we're looking for positives, it's also cheap at $48. That's still not enough to sway me, but it's a real plus for Juicy Couture fans.

Big bows like the one adorning this clutch are Juicy Couture staples. They're unashamedly girly and a whole lot of fun, but they can easily appear over the top. Juicy Couture gets away with this accent here though by keeping the rest of the clutch quite neutral. The gentle silvery hue and classic diamond quilting tempers the feminine feature.

The Gifting Bow Clutch also has the right size on its side. It's large enough to hold everything we need, but not so large that it appears overwhelming. A purse with such an obvious decoration needs to be a bit smaller lest it appear silly.

It's still a little large to easily carry by hand in my opinion, so I'm glad to see the chain accented strap. It won't feel especially comfortable on our shoulder, but it should make life a bit simpler.

It's got high quality materials on its side, but such a cutesy clutch still seems a little steep at $198. Perhaps it's time to place my order with Santa!

Perhaps I should stop expecting Juicy Couture to create frothy velour monstrosities, as we've been pleasantly surprised by many of the label's creations over the last year. This Live for Love Canvas Tote hardly pushes the fashion envelope, but it's another playful and restrained addition to the line.

I really appreciate the "Live for Love" slogan, which is a lot less obnoxious than some of the lines the brand used to favor. It's rendered in feminine silver, aqua, and lemon hues, which contrast beautifully with that pretty cantelope shade. It makes a nice change from overused coral, and even more predictable pink.

It looks like your average canvas tote, but that velour lined interior boasts a few practical perks. In a high end leather bag the two slip pockets and the zippered pouch would be stock standard, but here it makes us feel spoilt. If only there was a zip or some kind of clasp across the top I'd feel completely satisfied!

I like the look of the leather handles, but unfortunately they push the price up to $148. I always hesitate to spend more than $100 on a canvas bag, but this one has such charm I'm tempted to break my rule!

Juicy Couture is celebrating its youthful side with its colorful fall 2011 advertising campaign. Famed fashion photographers Inez Van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin shot the ad in New York City with Brazilian model Raquel Zimmermann.

The advertising campaign is somewhat appropriately called "Couture is Here." Well with all that color and movement, that fact was never in question! The company's president and CCO LeAnn Nealz said the label aimed to play up the "couture" part of its name with these advertisements which emphasize its "fun, glamorous, unapologetic side."

Frankly I think this ad is a bit messy. It's hard to even find the cute mini handbag and top handled satchel amongst all the clutter. These bags are right on trend though, emulating the looks we've seen on the fall runways nicely. And knowing Juicy Couture, we'll get them for a lot less than the high end labels will charge! Satchels are never really out of vogue, but small cross-body purses like this have gained recent momentum as a hands-free clutch alternative.

Look for the ads in the September editions of popular fashion magazines including Vanity Fair, Bazaar, Vogue, and its little sister Teen Vogue. The new handbags and the rest of the Juicy Couture collection will begin to arrive in the label's boutiques this month.

This Sequin Stripe $ Pieces purse is classic Juicy, with its whimsical style and injection of bling.

This wristlet is made from Juicy Couture's favorite fabric: velour. This soft red material is paired with stripes of black sequins. The color combination is bold and striking, with just the right amount of bling. Of course though, Juicy Couture rarely stops until it's gone over the top. The sequin covered heart accent takes things over the edge, but delightfully so.

Small purses like this are never packed with features, but the selection of card slots makes this one more practical than most. With your cards taken care of you won't need a wallet, so you can use that interior for storing a tiny coin pouch, a favorite tube of gloss, your cell phone, and your keys. That's the barest of basics, but what else do you need on an evening out?

For $78 we're not getting a lot of bag for our dollar, but we are getting a lot of personality.

But that's not always the case these days, as the label flexes its creative muscle in new ways. This Retro Floral Tote is part of the new breed.

I wouldn't say this tote is revolutionary, but it's a very different bag from the ones we typically associate with the label. Its mellow gray color is very subdued, and its monochrome floral print one for the modern girls. There's also no branding, which is definitely a new look for the label. As the world moves away from obvious logos and signatures, I'm glad to see Juicy Couture keeping pace.

This tote is fairly simple, but I wouldn't say it's basic. There's a selection of pockets in the side wall to ensure the sizable space stays organized. We really need them too, as without any closure we rely on it for security. Personally I'd have preferred a zip, or at least a magnetic snap, but at least it offers easy access.

Frankly I think $148 is too much to pay for any canvas tote, and this one isn't innovative enough to change my mind. But it is a step in the right direction for Juicy Couture!

This handbag is playful and pink, just as we'd expect from a Juicy Couture accessory, but it's also a little bit different too. The sunglass-wearing girl is something new from the brand, and the small Juicy Couture signature makes a welcome change from the label's usual showy logos.

I must admit though, while this Perfume Pink purse is cute it doesn't really deliver what I expect a laptop bag will. The interior isn't padded, and as it's only made from canvas there's little protecting our technology. It's also disappointing that there's no detachable strap, as those short handles aren't really practical for morning commuters. The fully lined interior does have a few zippered pockets though, so at least you can keep your items separate and your laptop scratch-free.

At a bargain $78 perhaps I shouldn't expect too much though. This Juicy Couture bag doesn't do a lot beyond holding a laptop, but it looks cute while it's doing it!

What I like most about this pet carrier is that it doesn't look like a pet carrier. Its classic tote shape makes it appear much more like a regular handbag than the average pet carrier, and in turn much more fashionable. So many of Juicy Couture's trademarks are here, including the large Scottie dog decorated crest and smattering of rhinestones. But in black and gray, it's much mellower than the average Juicy design.

This Scottie Bling tote puts fashion first, but it also functions well as a dog carrier. Its front zip closures make it easy to get Fido in and out, and its interior has a leash attachment to ensure he stays put. The open top design aids ventilation, and there's a mesh panel to help puppy see out. The Scottie Bling is made from a mix of cotton and polyester, so when those inevitable doggy smells set in you can just pop it in the washing machine.

You'll lose some of the creature comforts afforded in other dog carriers though. There's no cushioning at the base for your fur baby, and no additional pockets for you.

At $298 this pet tote is probably a bit expensive. I wouldn't spend that on a regular fabric tote, so why a pet one? But in such a limited market, perhaps Juicy Couture can charge pet owners what it likes!

I'm sure it was somewhere around the time that the label discovered there was more materials in this world than velour. Either way, this Pendelton Backpack is another stellar accessory from this formerly gaudy label.

I've always associated backpacks with school days, so it's fitting that this one has a real geek chic vibe. The wool blend finish with its houndstooth plaid makes me think of the vast libraries of Ivy League colleges, while its pink color gives it just a hint of girly sass. This is tempered somewhat by the brown leather trim and that unexpectedly sedate Juicy Couture nameplate. Try as I might, I just can't get used to such subtle branding from this former wild child!

This is one of the best looking backpacks I've seen, so I'm thrilled to see it's also as smart as it appears. There are plenty of exterior pockets for keeping small items organized, and enough space in the main compartments for textbooks and a packed lunch.

The new school year might be some time away, but at $248 the Pendelton is a great investment for September.

Meet the Trompe l'Oeil Canvas Tote.

This cute tote features a Daydreamer bag adorned with a fun satin bow, just like the real thing. It's a clever trompe l'oeil; while it's not going to fool anyone it makes a really playful fashion statement.

This Trompe l'Oeil tote looks like so many canvas totes, but it exceeds our expectations. Its generously sized interior is lined with cotton and well appointed with a zippered pocket and pair of open pouches. The magnetic closure isn't as secure as a zip would have been, but it's an improvement from the open tops most canvas totes offer. The shoulder straps are also nice and long to make carrying comfortable and easy.

The Trompe l'Oeil isn't all that fashion forward, but it does have a bit of style about it. Canvas totes like this might not work on the High Street, but they're ideal for carrying trainers to the gym and groceries home from the store.

At $98 this Trompe l'Oeil tote is an affordable way for us to own a little piece of Juicy Couture.
