September 2012 Miche Luxe Collection

They’re here, and available to order!  The newest Miche Luxe line is very high-end with a new level of intricacy of style and detailing.  The Luxe line of shells are just as versatile and interchangeable as the traditional Miche shells you love, but with lots of bling, edgy looks and undeniable allure.   The Luxe line was created to have the look and feel of luxury without the burden of a heavy price tag. There is no need to have a million dollars in the bank to look and feel like a million dollars!  It’s all about feeling special! 

Each Luxe shell comes with matching handles that continue the design elements of the shell, a coordinating imprinted Miche Luxe key fob and a dust cover for careful storage.  This new Luxe line is a test release, so supplies are limited.  There are no bundling options available for the Luxe line.  We have just been informed that corporate “hopes and expects these shells to last through September”, yet they also encourage us to get our orders in by the first half of the month…  When you are ready to order, please do so here.  I so appreciate your business!

September 2012 Miche Luxe Classic Sedona

With so much stressing of the limited quantities, some customers, as well as some representatives, have become a bit panicked about the possibility of these shells selling out over the weekend.  Corporate has now assured us they feel they have ordered enough that most of the shells should last the month of September.  They also encourage us to ensure that all parties and orders for these beauties are planned for the first half of the month so no customers are disappointed.

September 2012 Miche Luxe Classic Carmel

So what to make of this somewhat conflicting information?  I no longer think there is a danger of these shells selling out the first weekend.  Corporate had taken a long look at the quick sell outs we have had this year, as well as all of the buzz around the new Luxe line before making this announcement. 

But I would suggest that if you have made your decision – don’t wait to place your order.  And I think it wise to plan to order your favorite(s) before the middle of the month.

I hope you enjoy this little taste of luxury in a handbag and indulge yourself in something that is as special as you are!

Miche August Fearless Collection Colors ~ Join our Party!

The new Miche Collection – Fearless – is full of vibrant colors, edgy styling and intricate detailing.  Enjoy the colors of the fall season and remain fiercely, even fearlessly fashionable!  Join in our online Miche Party and be entered to win a free purse charm!

Miche Fearless Collection for fall

When first looking at the August 2012 Miche collection, before you really see the wonderful details or really take in the clever hardware and the edgy styling points you are immediately immersed in color.  Rich shades, many hues, and lots of lush color.  In my previous article, I focused on some of the fabulous patterns to be found in the collection.  Today is about the color palette.  This collection is inspired by the rich colors of the African sunset and the wild textures of the Australian Outback: strong yet beautiful.  Glorious! Miche Fearless Prima Breanne

The rich ochre, faux leather of the Miche Prima Breanne, reminiscent of the sunsets over the Kalahari desert, is  lightly marbled in its texture.  Contrasting black stitching lends interesting shape and slight gathering. The antique brass Miche name plate is a perfect highlight for this shell, like the last glint of the setting sun.  $39.95

Wonderful with the Interchangeable shells with antique brass chains.August 2012 Miche Demi Clover

Rich teal in pebbled faux leather is gathered in lush ripples and folds that catch the light on Miche Demi Clover.  Adding to the color depth of this bag, there is a feather-light rubbing of bronze that seems almost hand done.  You won’t notice it if you don’t look closely, instead the bag just looks incredibly rich and sumptuous.  $39.95  Gorgeous as is, even better with Interchangeable handles with silver chains or Black Rope Handlespurple plum Fearless Miche Demi Myranda Miranda

Miche Demi Myranda, shown left with the Interchangeable handles with antique brass chains, is a luscious color of plum flavored with candied raspberries.  Her faux leather is lightly marbled in texture, and gathered in multiple generous pleats along the front and sides.  An open pocket in the back supplies a surprise detail – just the right size to keep your cell phone handy.  $39.95

For a less expensive option to continue the antique brass details, use the carabiner rings in antique brass, either a set of 4 1-inch rings for $5.95, or 4 1.5-inch rings for $8.95 with the handles you already have.August 2012 Miche Demi Flo

 

Miche Demi Flo is rendered in a glowing goldenrod yellow, contrasted with white stitching in a fanciful diamond pattern.  A lovely color for autumn, reminiscent of turning leaves, this is also perfect for spring and summer’s floral tones.  $34.95

So pretty for fall with the Black Rope Handles, try the Linked Fashion Handles in White in summer to bring out the decorative stitching.August 2012 Miche Demi Eve

The black of ebony and obsidian are not bleak, but almost seem to glow with life.  That is the sense you get with the exquisite Miche Demi Eve.  $34.95  Her super soft, richly grained faux leather gleams as the light catches on the gentle gathers and the intricate weaving with black cording detail.   I love this bag, and I style her with the Black Rope Handles attached to the silver chains of the Interchangeable Handles.  Magical!August 2012 Fearless Miche interchangeable chain handles

The Interchangeable Handles with Antique Brass and/or Silver Chain Handles provide a wonderful way to further accessorize and complement the coloration of your new Miche bags as well as your old favorites.  The antique brass looks just that.  Not simply a flat color tone, instead both the carabiners and the chains appear irregularly colored and aged, giving them a very rich look.  The silver chains are far nicer in weight, shape and quality than the chain handles that have been retired.  And the softly grained black straps and those in croc textured brown are a very upscale element to add to your total look.  For a set of silver chains and 2 straps each of black and brown, the price is $24.95.  The same is true for the set with the antique brass chains.  For the total set – both silver chains and antique brass, and the straps in both black and brown, $39.95.

The Must-Have Miche Bag Accessory – Black Rope Handles!

Everything tastes better with whipped cream – don’t you think?  I’m not saying it would get me to start eating brussel sprouts, but I do wonder when a waitress or barista asks if I want whipped cream on that pudding/pie/cafe mocha…  What could they possibly mean?  Of course I want it!

I am beginning to think the new April release Black Rope Fashion Handles by Miche are the whipped cream of the chic bag world.  Every bag I try it on looks even better than it did before!  This is a must-have accessory for your Miche collection:

Of course it compliments the Demi, as if it were made for them.  I find I like it best with the Demi if I use two carabiners on each side, and just one rope handle:

Whether on a new love like the fun and floral Ivy…

*** This just in – Miche Demi Ivy will soon be retired!  If you love this beauty – don’t wait!  Buy while supplies last! ***

Or an old favorite like Miche Demi Kinsley given a fresh new look with the Black Rope handles and the Charmer Taffy – I love this look!

 

 

 

And of course you would expect the Prima sized bags to look terrific with the newest fashion handles.  For the Prima, I like using two of the rope handles:

They add a greater refinement and attention to detail to this functional art piece — The Miche Prima Hope White.

 

 

 

 

 

And Heidi looks at once more stylish and less severe with the rope handles.  Beautiful!

 

 

 

For me, the surprise came when I found the Classics paired so nicely with the Rope Handles.  I prefer using two Rope Handles rather than the one handle conversion:Miche Classic with Rope Fashion Handles

 

 

One of my first, and very favorite Classic Miche shells, Silvia is even more special with the Black Rope Handles.

I never expected any room for improvement with the ever-so-elegant Classic Elizabeth.  But look how well the detailing of the rope handles finishes the exquisite styling of Elizabeth’s shell.

 

 

And for the Petites — these handles are fantastic!  Not out of scale, but feeling more secure, and more sophisticated than cutesy:

Margo is ready to be taken seriously now, with the Black Rope Handles.  Seriously cute, seriously ready to take on the day.

For a fashionable new twist for a faithful favorite, or to make a new beauty even more special, you will find the new Black Rope Fashion Handles are an indispensable addition to your Miche collection.  I hope they will not disappear as quickly as the Pewter Rope Handles did — but I would not want to risk it!  Get yours today!

Miche’s latest Prima is a faceted amethyst rendered in plush faux leather.  Integrating plummy tones of mauve and magenta, it pairs well with any color in the pink to purple spectrum.  With dove grey piping around the end pockets and across the bottom, Robie seems to be smiling with confidence.
