How about that!  Another way to save mother nature - handbags made with recycled rubber tubes and auto tires!  A few of these bags are quite chic.  I just can’t imagine how they make these cute bags out of tires.  Haha.  Just hope that it doesn’t stink like rubber. 

You know that rubber smell…and what about the texture, they must feel like hard rubber but maybe not.  Overall, they are really cute and I love the fact that the purses are made with recycled materials.  Now you can purchase these RECYCLED RUBBER PURSES

Is it a hat or handbag…how about both!  The Sombrerobolsa by designers Rafael Vinader Balibrea and Virginia Bru Artero instantly transforms from hat to handbag and vice versa.  The idea is great but I don’t like the stitching showing on the product.  By the way, the model looks like Gwen Stefani.

Just came across this fishbowl inspired handbag.  It’s a Goldfish Bag by Myraim El Ayeb.  I just can’t imagine carrying this around except on a trip to the beach or something but definitely an unique bag for sure.

You wouldn’t know these bags are made with soda can pop tops until you get a closer look.  They don’t look too bad at least from far away.

MULTI COLOR SODA CAN TABS SHOULDER BAG

Kate Moss has an amazing collection of handbags - super expensive designer handbags.  I’ve been eyeing her fabulous black patent leather Chanel Coco Cabas Tote and trying to find a similar bag.  I found the BOMBRET PEWTER METALLIC patent shoulder bag by Steve Madden which looks a lot like Kate’s.  I love the way it reflects light, that makes this bag really stand out. 

This chic handbag is jazzed up with a beautiful gradient overlay which also reminds me of Prada Vernice Sfumata handbags.  Honestly, I think the Bombret bag is prettier than the Chanel or Prada bag and way more affordable!  We love that!  Available for $78 and also comes in pink - BOMBRET PINK METALLIC

Take a look at this sparkling clutch!  The Austrian crystal minaudiere from the Leiber collection can be personalized by putting your own initial(s)!  This is more than just a pretty handbag but more like a jewel in your hand.  I love the huge chunk of crystal snap closure sitting at the very top!  Comes with the detachable chain strap as well.  You’ll definitely feel like a princess with this one-of-a-kind handbag!  Available for $1595.00.

I like these handbags better than those ugly shoes Marc Jacobs came out with for the S/S 2008 collection.  How do you like those gold frogs?

I’m a big fan of clutches and I must say ginette etc…Bazaar Camerones Clutch is simply stunning!  Just looking at it makes my mouth water!  Haha.  The python-embossed leather clutch is a perfect choice for a daytime casual look to a sexy evening night out!  I absolutely love it!  This fashionable clutch exudes sexiness without sacrificing any of it’s elegance.  The subtle pink hue with a metallic sheen makes this purse ultra luxurious.  You’ll feel like a star wherever you go with it.  Also available in a gold hue ginette etc… Bazaar Royal Python Clutch if you like a more refined and classy look.
