The new collection 2010- Poppy is what I like very much. They are fun and colorful with unique prints on the bag and different shapes. They have cute details, like flowers, decorations to the belt etc. The logo 'C' is combined with graffiti, heart shape, butterfly etc. which can definitely catch our eyes. They are also functional which can be used in different ways. It is for creative, outgoing young girls. The price is not as high as I have imagined. Thus it is definitely a good choice if you want a chic, unique handbag with high quality and international fame.

Simone Camille- most beautiful bags in the world!

Today, I randomly saw a beautiful bag on the Vogue.cn. 
The brand name is Simone Camille which I have never heard of. Then I know that she is a new designer, after being a stylist for many years, she has collected experiences and developed unique aesthetic taste in this industry. She is fascinated with the folk art and creates something very colorful with beautiful embroidery. Her bags have gained great acceptance in the market. Her clients include celebrities and women from high class. 
I really like her design- color, passion, delicacy etc. are what I always look for. So it is my duty to introduce this cool designer to you.
Shining, hippie, bohemian....  these are not quite in the center of the mainstream, but when you are wearing a little boring classic clothes, match them with a Simone bag which will definitely make you more attractive to others.

Learn from the runway look- 1. Match

One of the most important spirit in the concept of accessory is to match the outfit and be a united part of a whole look. You should always keep in mind that accessory is to add your galmour, not to reduce it by grabbing a bag randomly. Every detail should be considered and don't miss any chance of making you look even better.
In the latest runway shows, we can learn how those big figures in the fashion world deal with the relationship between accessory and outfit.

 Rules of matching--
1.  Color match  -- all pictures. The color of the bags and shoes should be match to the color of the outfit. It does not necessarily need to be in one color, but should be fine when put together

2. Patterns and print- Mulberry1. The purple prints are very close to the prints in the garment.

3. Echo. Some details or elements used in the whole design can be repeated in different places. Picture 2 the golden fringe and floral design in necklace can be seen in the bag as well which forms a good match but not too complicated. Picture 1 the metal chain in the bag is also reflected by the golden decoration on the outfit.

4. Fabric match. picture 3,4,5,6. Winter clothes need the accessory to be warm in visual look. Those bags made of knitted fabric are well suited the knitting cardigans or coats.
