I am looking for a L_B, shoulder and the like. Well you inspired me to get a LRB, + match the (first) red lipstick I just bought from Mac called Diva it is matte (I add gloss for shine). I just moved to Kuala Lumpur from New York, thinking the Year of the Dragon has totally impacted my style choices! Thanks so much - sorry I so late to the conversation.

Hi Miss Sophie - I agree with you. I recently missed out on a cute little Country Road red bag which sold out really quickly... really regretted it. Then one day I came across one on ebay for 75% off RRP... the auction ended on a Friday night and no one else bid so I got it for the listed price :)

@T like Bubble ... hehe, love that you have such vibrant colors in your collection! it's hard for a lot of people to get away from the standard browns and blacks when it comes to bags. (i personally really don't like browns in general, the one exception being my mulberry bays in oak) would love to see you do a mini review of your PS1 - does it fit enough in it?

thanks for the new year wishes! :) glad to have found your blog too - here's to more style in 2012!

Oh I saw this bag in person at their boutique in NYC. I think the red is adorable and yes it is quite befitting to usher in the year of the dragon with this bag! Happy new year. :)

I love the LRB idea. I am always an advocate of bright coloured bags: teal, yellow, blue. As a result of my colour bag obsession I have no black bags though, which is rather unpractical, but fun :) As for the PS1, it's worth every penny. The leather is getting better the more I wear it, I would advise you to choose a more wearable colour though like navy blue?or yellow... or oh no here I go again. I am actually really craving a PS2, but have been able to resist for now.

On a different note I just want to wish you very merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I am really happy to have discovered your blog, look forward to your new year's posts! :) xxxxx

@Jocy yeah! a nice caramel leather bag is so great too. my vintage coach saddle bag is that color and it's such a great light neutral.

@Michelle mmmm that's great to hear! i will always have a soft spot for a lipstick red bag.

All year in Cambodia, I used the one bag tucked away in my LA closet that I thought could withstand the climate: a 3.1 Lim sample sale find in a cherry red. The red is great color to wear, but having worn it nearly every day this year, I'm going to try to go for another hue in 2012. The tan version of this bag looks nice...

big fan of the LRB! i have a vintage anne klein in red from my aunt that adds the perfect pop of color to any outfit. luckily it has a little zip compartment on the inside + can easily fit a small-medium paperback book.

Hi, I've seen the bag in person at Barney's and it's quite nice - the trim and color (rich lipstick red) lend it a vintage-y feel that's offset by the size and crossbody style. Hate to be an enabler, but there you go :)

@Aïssa haha, i'm glad i found a kindred spirit in my LRB obsession! i've been looking for the perfect red bag for years now. hmm it is a pity that SA isn't easily available in Paris. but Barneys does ship internationally ;)

Oh no, please don't revive my red bag obsession. Your arguments are quite convicing about a LRB! ;))
That Steven Alan is so cute and original, the perfect pop of color.
I always like that brand's products but it's a shame there's no store or at least a corner in Paris carrying their items.
