Below: Quilted Shearling Sling Bag - £995. (Derivative from the gorgeous shearling aviator inspired coats in the collection. This one has a tough luxe look which I adore.)

Below: Mega Check Sling Bag with Shearling Trims and Buckle - £795. (If leather is not your thing, then this distinctive Burberry mega checks version might be a good alternative.)

Below: Alligator Sling Bag with Metallic Nails and Buckle - £8000. (Here comes the exotics! And this Alligator version with the cool metallic nails gives the wearer an edge and glamour at the same time. Gorgeous colour of ochre. Comes in a darker shade of muted brown, Bark as well.)

Below: Plissé Leather Hobo Bag with Brass Rivets - £995. (Although it resembles YSL's Roady at the first look... the shoulder sling strap makes this a highly versatile everyday arm companion while looking chic. It's also roomy and the interesting Plissé leather is texturally interesting.)

Below: Plissé Python Hobo Bag - £4000. (If you have the spare cash, this python version is just TDF! Love the Burgundy colour. Comes in tobacco and uniform blue colours as well.)

Fancy Any Bags From Burberry's Fall Winter 2010 Women Show Yesterday? Now You Can Pre-order Them!

Yes, yet another innovative gesture from Burberry to bring the realities of a Fashion Show one step closer to their fans. Till 26 Feb, outerwear and bags seen on the Fall Winter 2010 Womenswear Show yesterday can be pre-ordered at www.burberry.com! Speed and efficiency is key in this fast-paced day and age. I applaud Burberry for their innovative marketing ideas as well as technological innovations of live streaming their show in 3D and using social networking platforms to outreach a wider audience. With initiatives likes these, Burberry will be remembered as a forerunner in successfully integrating fashion with technology. Fashion has truly evolved from exclusivity for the selected few to a social conversation that everyone can participate. Just look at all the twitter comments during the show!

Here's my pick of the 8 top gorgeous bags from last night's show. I am delighted that exotics skins like python and alligator have been unabashedly and luxuriously used. I love them, especially the interesting technique as seen on the plissé python skin. The sling bags in its saddle shape works great as clutches or shouder bags for both work and play.

Which ones are your favourite?

Buy them before everyone does!
