It’s that time again!! Time to pick out my next Alexander Wang handbag 
(or at least DREAM of picking out my next Alexander Wang handbag…)
When I first saw the Kristen “strappy” tote, I loved it, but now, not so much. It’s a bit messy, no? And can’t you just imagine it getting caught on stuff as you walk by??
Alexander Wang Kristen Tote: $975
I do love this “exclusive” color of the Lia Sling bag at Net-a-porter – also check Alexander Wang for a pretty “Latte” color:
Alexander Wang Lia Sling handbag: $795
Finally though, I think THIS will be my next Alexander Wang bag – it’s kind of a larger version of the Brenda, which I’ve wanted for a long time, and I really love this “Feather Gray” color at Alexander Wang:
Alexander Wang Eugene Satchel: $795 (also available at Saks, in black)
Which one is your favorite?

It’s here!!! I know a lot of ladies were waiting on the new Fall colors for Alexander Wang’s Darcy hobo, and now the gray (grigio) is here at Shopbop:
I have the luggage darcy and am happy with that choice of colors because I NEVER wear the gray bags I do buy…but always want one anyway 
Here’s a link to my original review, and more pictures of me carrying it:
Also…buy the Darcy hobo online (in Luggage & Black) with a discount at the following places:
Satine – use code “grechens10″ for 10% off
Zoe – use code GRECHEN for 10% off
Madison Los Angeles – call 310-273-9900 ext 306 to check stock and order – mention “grechen15″ for 15% off
Diavolina – use the same contact info for Madison LA to order
I can’t help it. I’m still drawn to the studs and the pebbled leather Alexander Wang has made iconic…
Check out more of the Fall 2010 Alexander Wang accessories & shoes collection at Refinery29. Honestly, I’m not feeling much besides the above hobo bag. The shoes really don’t do anything for me…
**edited 4/21/2010: Satine Boutique is starting to pre-sell the hobo above, the Darcy, in Luggage (the darker brown) and black for June/July delivery!!!
Yes, I know I said “somebody virtually shoot me if I ever feature a backpack on Grechen’s Closet” in my video review of Lucky Magazine last week…but I want to know what you think. And I do have to admit that I wouldn’t turn this Alexander Wang backpack away if somebody wanted to give it to me – but I don’t think I’d spend my money on it.
So, shoot me Theoretically, a backpack-as-handbag could work, as long as you NEVER WEAR IT AS A BACKPACK, and just carry it on your shoulder. Sorry for yelling, but I’m emphatic about that point…
What do you think? Will you carry a backpack this season (other than to school & back)? Do you like the trend?
