If you're lucky, you're already familiar with Melanie Auld as a jewelry designer -- she has celebrity fans, such as Hayden Panettiere, but her jewelry is reasonably priced enough to be accessible to the masses as well. She strives to create pieces that women can feel special wearing whether they're all dressed up or just trying to liven up a casual ensemble, and now, she has expanded her talents to a line of handbags. The young designer mentioned in an interview with StyleDiary last year that, aside from jewelry, she loves handbags and shoes, and at that point she was interested in designing bags but hadn't yet put that plan into action. Now she has, with gorgeous results.

She uses the softest lambskin to create the bags, so they're incredibly soft and high quality, but she keeps practicality in mind as well -- each design comes complete with pockets for cell phones and keys. And, you have your choice of several colors, like blue, red, cream, cognac, and plum.
