Fall/Winter 2009 Handbag Trends: Chain Link Straps
Ladies, you better get out the plastic!
The new styles in hand bags come with price tags that might make your man cough a bit tentatively and make him wish he was shopping at Ross Dress For Less with his past main squeeze with the squeaky voice and the Mary Kay face lift………………………especially the Dolce Gabbana Miss Pillow bag for a mere $1,295 !
You might want to entertain the use of your Amex Card…..NO spending limit!
And if your bitchin’ buff beau won’t buy it for you…..PURCHASE IT YOURSELF – and dump his parsimonious, penny pinching, tight wad tush.
This bag is way hot!

There’s a new twist on an existing handbag trend, and it looks like our favorite celebs already have a head start! Rachel Bilson has been snapped out & about in Los Angeles carrying a dynamite new chain link handbag by Derek Lam, shown below?
Which brings me to the trend.. chain strap handbags! While this isn’t new (Chanel classic bags come to mind), they have started to appear in all shapes & sizes, with added touches like fringe & hardware. You may prefer shoulder bags, like Rachel, but satchels & top handle bags also have chains to choose from.
The colour trend in handbags this season is quite varied – if you’re wearing basic black, don’t hesitate to add a splash of colour (red, or purple), or even an interesting pattern like Marc Jacobs’ green & blue Misfit bag. Continue reading below…
Or stay with traditional & elegant black, with the chain strap providing some exra embellishment to your outfit. Personal favourite here at ShoppingTheTrend is Anya Hindmarch Maddock handbag, we predict it will be an instant classic.
