Introducing Angel Jackson

Katie and Millie Smith are two British born designers with big dreams. They once dreamed of naming their children Angel and Jackson, and creating a chic line of handbags for the contemporary woman. And when they were convinced by friends not to do the former, they bestowed their unused baby names upon their burgeoning collection.

Each of their bags, which have been featured in Vogue, Elle, Nylon, and Instyle, possess a sassy, vintage charm. For a fun neutral carryall I suggest the Mercer; grab a Chandra clutch to instantly glamorize any outfit, or give 'em something fierce and out with one of the new jaguar bags.

Chloe Eddie Evening Bag

Stella McCartney has never been one to follow the rules, so it makes sense that her interpretation of an evening bag would be rather unorthodox. This bag features a gold chain link strap, and though they are ubiquitous in day bags (think Chanel and Marc Jacobs), they are not usually found in quote-unquote evening bags. The Eddie is also a bit bulkier than than a typical evening bag. It possesses no sleek lines or diminutive features. That's the magic of Chloe, no matter how off-the-wall or inconsequential the aesthetic seems. You can't help but gravitate to Stella's designs.

Pauric Sweeney Leather Shimmer Bag

Pauric Sweeney is poised to become the next handbag design superstar. His funky patent bags were a hit when they debuted earlier this year, now the equally quirky leather shimmer bag is beginning to garner attention. The bag features several unusually placed zippers and patent corners. No, its certainly not for the traditionalist, but it's an avant-garde bagista's dream.

Zac Posen Abbey Satchel

Rising design star Zac Posen is already known for his vibrant red carpet fashions, and he's starting to make a name for himself in the world of designer handbags. Baginista's cooed over Posen's Aurora Bag (in its many incarnations) over the past few months, and now I'm completely smitten with the Abbey Satchel. The hexagonal ring pull and patent leather accents give the bag a perfect touch of unusual. It's sure to become a celebrity staple just like it's framed predecessor.

Halle Loves Her YSL Tribute Bag

It seems like YSL is the handbag of choice for the Hollywood A-listers. Halle Berry was spotted with the YSL Tribute Bag (my favorite) a couple of times last week. She certainly looks tiny carrying that massive bag, but it's still completely chic.

Nicole Carries the Givenchy Nightingale

I'm not sure how it happened, but somehow the Givenchy Nightingale tote has become the new 'it' bag, and there's nary a celebrity that has escaped its irresistible clutches. Nicole Richie was seen carrying while out shopping (presumably for baby things) with boyfriend Joel Madden. I honestly don't think it's that attractive, but I might think differently if I had received it for free.
