I loved browsing through The Laden Showroom in Brick Lane while I was in London but was never aware that they had their own line of bags going on. This is one from their collection of futuristic-looking handbags available now on ASOS.
Really, if you plan to have my hand in marriage - buy me a PB. I'll say yes with no hesitation. Or better yet, get this limited edition Pipe Padlock Bag (how bout one in bright pink, Paul?) at £64.00 from ASOS. Hint hint.

Ed Hardy has swimwear? Since when? And they are gorgeous, if I may add. I quietly shed a tear everytime I go out looking for a new piece of swimsuit cause for the price they make us pay for a piece, it is always such a challenge to find something I actually would like to be half-naked in. So hey, thanks ed.

She studied fashion at Medway College and began her career as John Galliano's first ever design assistant.

You don't know bags until you know Paul's Boutique. I first discovered PB whilst browsing TopShop @ Oxford St and fell in love the very instant. I don't fall for designer bags, because I find most of them dreadfully ugly, but I give this exception to PB and Betsey Johnson. PB bags are also individually customized which means no two are the same.
This one is the Leopard Padlock Bag by Paul's Boutique.
Oh, I want this bag. This is The Ghetto Blaster Tote w/ Working Speakers in GraffitiBag by Loop Design - available on Karmaloop. FYI, the speakers actually work. as in, they produce sound. Which means, i can walk around town not only looking cool but i make noise too.
