Up-and-Coming Designers
There are amazing purses to be had by designers so new, so hot, so now that one finds these purses and handbags at invitation-only gatherings or tony, urban boutiques. Will they be around next season? Will they be the next Kate Spade? Perhaps, perhaps.
If you know what you like and you know you don't want to be like everybody else, strike out on your own and find an up-and-coming handbag designer.
And by no means, don't keep secrets!

SabineEuro designer Sabine Frank's (SaFran) handbag lines runs the gamet from streetwise unisex satchels to satin and velvet wonders so delicate it's hard not to coddle them.

Hayden-Harnett
Trend-setter or trend follower? For those leaning toward the front of the line, you have to see Hayden-Harnett out of Brooklyn. Talk about a mash-up that works. Kimono fabric meets patent croco with little wild extra morsels of hardware:Jalda style gets a listing on the Up and Coming page since she is relatively new to handbag making - 2002 - but her designs hit the fashion bone and are carried throughout the U.S. Jalda was born in the Netherlands but lives in Los Angeles. She's a former business consultant who craved a career with creativity. She made a handbag for her brother's bride for the wedding and before she knew it, she was making bags for friends and others. Made in the U.S. and carried by fine boutiques and tony department stores, Jalda bags have a loyal following among the stars and fashion-forward gals everywhere. P.S. to the men: This is a great gift for the lady!JALDA

Deadly Squire
Talk about beautiful fabrics! The Harringtons start by designing their own canvas fabric for totes and coin purses, along with oven mits, dog beds, pillows, ties, placemats. The DSQ team aren't strictly purse designers, but the little chamers they do make are a distinctive addition in a bag or over-the-shoulder. Below is a sampling of totes, a coin purse, and a pouch.Tracey Vest
Not daywear! At least not daywear for most of us not walking the red carpets or lunching in L.A. Tracey's purses are faux fur and feathers. Beautiful, frilly.Keyka Lou

How people go from making a purse for a friend and wham! They are getting them made by hand (and other people) and selling around the world. Awesome. Does anyone have a Jalda bag? They look so pretty.
