Burberry Prorsum Herringbone Raffia Clutch Graphic art and raffia? Who knew? This lovely clutch is from Burberry Prorsum’s 2012 Cruise Collection. I love the flap closure and its raw edges. The print is a bit busy, but I think the black leather belt grounds the look nicely. Perfect for those semi-dressy occasions where you don’t want to look too stuffy. $750

Alaïa Laser-Cut …

… the color of the season, and I dare say it rivals tangerine in popularity for the entire year. The Burberry Prorsum Kingfisher Bag is described as more of a turquoise, but when was the last time you saw that shade look so fresh? This little wristlet is a minty must in my book – just the thing for slinging on as you head out the door, all gussied up in a floral dress and cute wedges. Available for $898 at Matches Fashion.

If not for the price, I’d be inclined to suggest that this sweet Burberry Logo Crest iPhone Wallet would make a lovely first choice for a budding fashionista. But we don’t want to spoil anyone (too early, at least), so let’s just keep this to ourselves for now. A dash of satin-like calfskin leather emboldens this eye-catching case and makes it a must for a tech-savvy style fiend. Available for $350 at Nordstrom.

image: burberry.com Burberry’s inner artisan is revealed as they welcome the warmer climates with their Whipstitch Bag, a true Prorsum beauty. The whipstitch / woven feature is yearned by many during the spring and summer season, along with the color-blocking trend that is highly popularized right now. Fuse these two trends together and you’ll get this unusual yet colorful collaboration that is …

At first glance it’s just a basic decorative clutch, but the Burberry Prorsum Woven Leather and Raffia Clutch really takes on a different appearance when it’s paired with something bold. That’s how it was shown at London Fashion Week for spring/summer 2012, and it actually gave the bag far greater presence and elegance than if it had been worn with jeans and a T-shirt or even a sleek dress. There’s a real eye-popping quality about the safari-inspired …

Oh, to be in need of a new Burberry purse. If I were, I’d be sitting here, credit card in hand, rapidly ordering this chic Check Print Satchel. Quite possibly one of the most attractive variations of the classic pattern, it’s shown off in a sublime, understated gray and cream palette and finished with bold topstitching and a bundle of oversized tassels. These contrasts lend it a look that is at once strong and …

Variation is always good and it seems like the House of Burberry believes so too. Just check out the talent portrayed on this shoulder bag. I’m stunned at the unexpected tote bag the British brand presented this season; meet the Printed Cotton Canvas & Leather bag. With a name like Printed Cotton Canvas, I was expecting something as little less striking with not so much detailing. This is definitely a diverse change from the classic plaid …

… There’s a first time for everything, right? That explains why I am downright appalled by the Burberry Belted Check Print Shoulder Bag. What is going on here? I normally love, love, love Burberry and its creative use of the classic house check print, but the overuse of buckles on this bag, paired with the rather bleak-looking mustard hue, makes it a complete mess. First time – and only, I hope. Available to pre-order for $1795 at Nordstrom.

When is a tote not just a tote? When it’s designed by Burberry: long and lean, handsome yet feminine, boosted by the presence of pristine leather that does a fine job standing out all on its own. Take the label’s Leather Tote, which just seems like miles and miles of tan, not a bit of hardware in sight. Consider the perfectly rounded handles, the hefty size, the fact that it was practically made for on-the-go gals who tend to carry the world on …
