Choose between pink pebbled leather with black lace (shown above) or white pebbled leather with black lace. In Bagaholic Babe's opinion, the pink looks sweeter and less granny-ish. Generally not my style as it looks rather mature.<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh61Ve7Lh_biyOYTJ8UJnWKWykBp_V8USg3sQo9lBWxJDwJrKMLNaCt1moEatxW1OIh0kyNCeg4-LBjmDyAsNg2SfYKW4UHkLsYNlWSIG6a8NmxCBInLemrKP1VyF0kFBg1zznaSYyKYolP/s1600-h/Tessuto+Weave+Tote.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 288px; height: 361px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh61Ve7Lh_biyOYTJ8UJnWKWykBp_V8USg3sQo9lBWxJDwJrKMLNaCt1moEatxW1OIh0kyNCeg4-LBjmDyAsNg2SfYKW4UHkLsYNlWSIG6a8NmxCBInLemrKP1VyF0kFBg1zznaSYyKYolP/s400/Tessuto+Weave+Tote.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267699382078746418" /></a><br /><b>Tessuto Weave Tote - $1350</b><br /><br />This is one of Bagaholic Babe's favourites from this Resort 2009 Collection. From the photo above, it may look woven ala Bottega Veneta, but after looking at it in the store, it is actually pleated to create a weave effect. Very interesting. If you're not a Tessuto (that's nylon, in Prada speak), you might prefer the metallic leather one below. The patent handles give the bag just the right touch of luxe. And if you're wondering where the Prada logo is, it's at the opening of the bag, facing inwards. <br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEievPQe1ocV6KKqHLaVIA5gragpjouQP8HeSEm30Eh_pe_woWxR5zcnLVEeFe49N5EgwIom9C9jjf_29WSvOjOkNoy6KFiCXCXTmYxsQbgwOCEI6y9YxPvWytf9Zi3pUH5XE_Uhzf44N5mb/s1600-h/Leather+Woven+Metallic+Hobo.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 346px; height: 309px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEievPQe1ocV6KKqHLaVIA5gragpjouQP8HeSEm30Eh_pe_woWxR5zcnLVEeFe49N5EgwIom9C9jjf_29WSvOjOkNoy6KFiCXCXTmYxsQbgwOCEI6y9YxPvWytf9Zi3pUH5XE_Uhzf44N5mb/s400/Leather+Woven+Metallic+Hobo.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267699377876703474" /></a><br /><b> Vitello Mordore'A Hobo - $2490 </b><br /><br />Here's yet another woven bag, but in metallic leather this time. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZWGrHjb8LIWjkMeVHYjjnpu-Rrn4I2RENjaaWRILPqFaGesR98RLmvsA8K8q2V-AsiANXz4yRy_DVmsMhtOVx9SLUrVLQYMbun46pEUXDBMC0uE2kHO4aUFLzQPdte1_G233YolUBPYjb/s1600-h/Patent+Striped+Bowler.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 344px; height: 311px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZWGrHjb8LIWjkMeVHYjjnpu-Rrn4I2RENjaaWRILPqFaGesR98RLmvsA8K8q2V-AsiANXz4yRy_DVmsMhtOVx9SLUrVLQYMbun46pEUXDBMC0uE2kHO4aUFLzQPdte1_G233YolUBPYjb/s400/Patent+Striped+Bowler.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267699377531714818" /></a><br /><b>Vernice One Bowler -$1360</b><br /><br />Remember the multicoloured leather stripes from Prada's S/S 2008 collection earlier this year? Yes, those very bags that I commented on their jesterly look. We saw a few striped bags with stripes of different textures like alternating mix of patent and leather in F/W 2008, and now, it makes another appearance in the Resort 2009 Collection. This one fully patent bowler is much more classy, and no longer jesterly, imho. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGqjKWU-3cSkjbKK_alPZsVuK0cJSZB4iaFTHGA3oIGFJIxmqUxZOZhQ7UeE6NsfXKhBpgeseYEvoJgY3Ybwx_xjrzS8ftMeYvGC709bI80v-vEoWr_E8Q8rARtJhPpwKjxyhgh86Bku2s/s1600-h/Ruffled+Chain-Strap+Tote.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 354px; height: 365px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGqjKWU-3cSkjbKK_alPZsVuK0cJSZB4iaFTHGA3oIGFJIxmqUxZOZhQ7UeE6NsfXKhBpgeseYEvoJgY3Ybwx_xjrzS8ftMeYvGC709bI80v-vEoWr_E8Q8rARtJhPpwKjxyhgh86Bku2s/s400/Ruffled+Chain-Strap+Tote.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267699369271074530" /></a><br /><b>Ruffled Chain-Strap Tote - $1295 </b> <br /><br />The same ruffled leather look that we saw in this year's Fall/Winter collection has been carried over into next year's Resort collection. I was not a fan of the ruffled leather bowler from F/W but this is quite pleasant to the eye! Love the plastic chain-strap handles, but because of the chain straps, we can expect that it would be quite heavy. <br /><br /> <br /><br />These are only <i>some</i> of the bags from Prada's Resort Collection 2009.

The Flap Bag is also made from Prada's rip-proof Tessuto Nylon and Saffiano (Textured( leather) on the Prada Plaque with Griffin Detail. It comes with Gold hardware and a removable Gold chain shoulder strap. Get this for $895 at <a href="http://www/neimanmarcus.com"> Neiman Marcus </a href>.<br /><br />Due to overwhelming demand for both these bags from the 'Animalier' Collection, you can only order up to 3 pieces of this item every 30 days.<br /><br />The Griffin detail is reminiscent of Prada's older collection which had Dragon and Phoenix motifs on it, hence 'Animalier' (animals, duh) collection. With the 'Animalier' collection, Bagaholic Babe is reminded of old fables and myths where Griffins, Ogres, Dragons, Dungeons, are commonplace.Bagaholic Babehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07544638027588443348noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540654027862139469.post-40420081583496802282006-12-19T11:14:00.000+08:002006-12-21T14:32:37.877+08:00Prada Resort Collection for Spring/Summer 2007Remember the ruched Prada Nappa Gauffre that was seen on celebs' such as Victoria Beckham, Madonna and Hilary Duff? (see below for photos). Many of us couldn't get our hands on them as they were waitlisted for the longest time, and along with all waitlisted bags, they came along with a hefty price tag. For Malaysians out there, the Nappa Gauffre is still avaliable in the Prada boutique at KLCC. However, they range from RM$8000+-RM$10,000+. So there's still an opportunity to grab em! <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj93pTAhPHjSBKi_R5Xl4Z5VBoQwBNQxgxIcksP9WD0Lzg13uJ3RxfKZEMUcUbEnNMwkqihWUHNF9EDEdj36JeIxxgdUxGkpTAxL2vv-YpL3fmrmHJm6Yh1qAFVtLpN4SmLRNdrWZdElJ4/s1600-h/prabag-bn1232militaret.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj93pTAhPHjSBKi_R5Xl4Z5VBoQwBNQxgxIcksP9WD0Lzg13uJ3RxfKZEMUcUbEnNMwkqihWUHNF9EDEdj36JeIxxgdUxGkpTAxL2vv-YpL3fmrmHJm6Yh1qAFVtLpN4SmLRNdrWZdElJ4/s320/prabag-bn1232militaret.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5010073539771157186" /></a><br /><br />Prada Fall Winter '06 Nappa Gauffre <br /><br />And for those of you who, for whatever reasons couldn't get the Nappa Gauffre from the Prada Fall Winter '06 collection featured in the photo above, you can get a more affordable version from Prada's latest Resort and Cruise Spring-Summer '07 collection. It launches in the middle of December at the Prada KLCC boutique. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPqLRXEWhbAzmVo0FOkv1vS8_-xWWL0WIRklSvVX5vHESrqPV9opwxE2Bi1WMDNpJIce1jNdIhEGUOachIAXpGlDyLpfLadvjjeRJK_BqFe_cL7ONP78XQPpDzf1gHk6EzGJwNxG-R3rc/s1600-h/sasha_pradass07resort_02.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPqLRXEWhbAzmVo0FOkv1vS8_-xWWL0WIRklSvVX5vHESrqPV9opwxE2Bi1WMDNpJIce1jNdIhEGUOachIAXpGlDyLpfLadvjjeRJK_BqFe_cL7ONP78XQPpDzf1gHk6EzGJwNxG-R3rc/s320/sasha_pradass07resort_02.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5010075459621538514" /></a><br />Prada Tessuto Gauffre (image scanned by Bagaholic Babe)<br /><br /><br />It's made from Prada's signature rip-proff tessuto nylon (thus only weighing a fraction compared to that of the Nappa Gauffre from Fall/Winter '06) and comes in bright and pretty candy colours such as Fire engine Red, Midnight Blue, Canary Yellow, Tangerine, Dark Green, Fuschia and White -- all with ruched tessuto nylon. However, As can be seen from the photo above, it comes with woven leather handles and trimmings, and comes with an adjustable long strap so that one can sling it over the shoulder or wear it messenger-style. Or, if you prefer, you can tote it around on your arm. What more could one ask for?! *winks*<br /><br />It is available in 3 different sizes - small, medium and large.<br />The small is perfect for evening use or clubbing - For convenience, just attach the long adjustable leather strap and you can start dancing the night away!) It measures 8 inches in length and 1.5inches in depth.<br />The medium measures approx 15-16inches in length and 3-4inches in depth.<br />Retail price (USA)$1300-1650 <br />Retail price (Malaysia) RM$3000-4000 for the small, and RM$5000-6000 for the medium<br />Retail price (Hong Kong) HK$12500 for the large<br /><br /><br />Bagaholic Babe loves the medium and large Tessuto Gauffre in Fuschia, White and Green. <br /><br />Bagaholic Babe says:- "A definite recommended STAR BUY!!!!"Bagaholic Babehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07544638027588443348noreply@blogger.com1
