• A Celebrity Summer

  It is always exciting to see a celebrity in Rebecca Minkoff, but there is something particularly thrilling about watching the stars pair their summer duds with my bags. It could be the relative importance of an accessory in an otherwise skimpy outfit, or maybe the fun, flirty fashion of summer that embodies Rebecca Minkoff. 1. Lauren Conrad rocks the Stud Nikki in Almond.  Check out this updated classic back in a bevy of bold colors for Fall. 2. Hayden Panettiere proves that MABs are like a fine wine: better with age. Seen here in Sage, available online in new shades. 3. Alexis Bledel premieres Post Grad with the Stud Fling.  A celeb favorite, the Fling is available online in new Snakeskin combos. 4. Yvonne Strahovski looks fantastic in her belted blazer and shocking-red pumps.  I'm pumped to help complete the ensemble with this grey Fling. 5. Ashley Greene is Purple Haze craze! First she was spotted in the Darling (now nary a one can be found) and here we see her in the 3-Zip Clutch. Stay tuned to RebeccaMinkoff.com to get yours soon! 6. It tickles us pink (piping) to see Agyness Deyn in this new bag for Resort. Similar to the popular Dove Grey MAB for Spring '09, this update features zipper detail for added flare. Get excited for November! For more great styles, visit the Rebecca Minkoff store. And for your favorite celebs rocking Rebecca Minkoff, visit the 'girls' section on RebeccaMinkoff.com.   Posted Aug 24 2009, 01:18 PM by RebeccaMinkoff with no comments Filed under: ashley greene rebecca minkoff lauren conrad morning after bag three zip clutch purple haze agyness deyn aggy alexis bledel fling clutch zip dove grey neon trim

• Bags, Now Bracelets and Belts, Oh My!

  What's a girl to do with a wide assortment of scrumptious leather and studs and zippers to spare? Bracelets and belts, of course! The new bracelet collection - launching this fall - is everything you love about Rebecca Minkoff: bold colors, supple leathers and standout details.  Inspired by my signature studs, the look is totally modern (while winking at the 80's). More than good looking, these babies are eco-friendly, too! Made from excess leather and hardware, the bracelet collection is good for you and the environment! So do yourself - and the earth - a favor, and bag these bracelets! Posted Aug 20 2009, 06:12 PM by RebeccaMinkoff with 5 comment(s)

• In the Studio with Rebecca

  My day with Teen.com didn't end with Dreama and Amanda.  In fact, after we wrapped the fashion show with the girls, the crew and I headed back to my studio for a little behind-the-scenes action. I rarely invite cameras into my chaotic design space, but when Teen.com asked to peep my Spring 2010 inspiration I couldn't resist. In the video below I chat a bit about how I got my start as a handbag designer and the process of bringing my ideas to life.  I also incur an unexpected emergency - lining needed, stat! - and give you a sneak peek into the high-drama world of handbag design! If you love the handbags shown in this vid, the Holiday collection will make your head spin. Stay tuned! Posted Aug 14 2009, 03:56 PM by RebeccaMinkoff with no comments

• Hanging with Gossip Girls on Teen.com!

  If you're as big a fan of Gossip Girl as I am, then you know the girls of Constance Billard School are fashion mad.  That's why I was thrilled when Dreama Walker and Amanda Setton swung by my showroom to check out the Fall Collection.  Hard to believe, but they're as sweet as they are pretty! And loads of fun, too. Check out the video below, where I walk the girls through my digs and help them prepare for a busy social schedule: a date with Nate, brunch with the Basses and shopping at Bergdorf.  To accent their clothes, we added the famous Rocker and the soon-to-be-famous 3-Zip Clutch and Loveletter Clutch. If you love the fall fashions shown in the vid, visit RebeccaMinkoffStore.com next week to shop the collection! And stay tuned to Minkette.com - there's more where that came from!

• Shenae Loves RM and RM Loves Shenae!

  When Shenae Grimes asked for a Rebecca Minkoff clutch a few months ago, I was flattered. As the star of a new TV show - a personal favorite, to boot - I couldn't think of anyone I'd rather see sporting the MAC. We all know celebrities have tons of great stuff, so I crossed my fingers that Shenae would dig the bag - and I sat back and waited. Well, fast forward three months and Shenae still can't get enough! Even better, the girl really knows how to wear it. The beauty of the clutch is its versatility and no one gets it better than Shenae. Good for day, great for night - this girl really rocks it! Get yours at RebeccaMinkoff.com!
