What happened to the 2013 styles?
Our 2013 list had ten styles: the jeweled-box clutch, pouch, envelope clutch, bucket, satchel, duffel, elongated frame, structured tote, shopper and animal print. Each needs fresh brand pages to verify prices, and we could confirm only the eight styles above this season. The duffel, shopper, envelope clutch, pouch and animal-print styles are dropped from this version, and the 2013 prices and models should not be used.
