Victoria Beckham is one of the few celebrity designers that I actually take seriously. She has always exhibited exquisite personal style and her namesake line is both timeless and sophisticated. Beckham's spring 2011 collection features sexy silhouettes that accentuate the female form, but I was most impressed by the addition of some pretty striking handbags. My personal favorite is the 'Victoria' satchel. While I feel that her assertion that it can replace your Birkin is a bit of an overstatement, if not blasphemous, the 'Victoria' is certainly a timeless, well-crafted everyday satchel. It epitomizes the ladylike chic trend that is so hot for fall, but I'm sure that did not influence Beckham's design aesthetic. She personifies elegance and luxury, so it is only fitting that her first foray into handbag design would reflect her personal style. The 'Victoria' satchel appears to come in a variety of different buttery-soft leather and color variations. I love the taupe calfskin adaptation, but I certainly would not decline any of those undoubtedly uber expensive crocodile versions as a gift. With a debut handbag collection this spectacular, I cannot wait to see what she comes up with next. Come spring, the 'Victoria' satchel will be available at Bergdorf Goodman for $3,500. Also available at Net-a-Porter.com.

Love her & her collections. We'll wait & see for the handbags. I want to raid her closet(s)!!! :-)
Love these styles....I did become a lover of handbags when I went to Singapore and just saw the range - WOW
She's received such a positive response from her collection. I wasn't always a fan of such structured bags, but I'm now starting to see the appeal.
Thanks for stopping by ladies! I just found out the pricing information and added it to the post.
