agoda.com Spotlights Chic Parisian Hotels

agoda.com, Asia’s global hotel booking site and part of the Nasdaq-listed Priceline Group (Nasdaq: PCLN), unveils a stylish new collection of chic hotels in Paris.

The French capital has always been a fashionable destination. While some world cities fall in and out of favor, Paris's blend of history, art, architecture, and bohemian culture keeps it eternally in style.

Accommodation in Paris reflects centuries of changing trends. Beyond the old-fashioned opulence of the Ritz and the George V, there's a new generation of hotels bringing fun and modernity to a Parisian trip. Historic Haussmann-era buildings sports designer refits complete with high-tech gadgets and sleek new furnishings, at a fraction the price of their elite counterparts.

In time for Paris Fashion Week 2011, agoda.com rounds up the chicest urban hotels in Paris.

Blair Waldorf-esque Designer totes for school?

I'm starting high school next year, and I'm doing a closet transformation a la Blair Waldorf from Gossip Girl... I need a cute, Blair-ish designer tote to use for school next year, and please no suggestions like ae or Abercrombie or even Juicy/Coach. I'm looking for a great high-fashion bag that I can get for under $500 . . . but a little more might be okay too, if the bag is good to be used outside of school as well, since my parents will understand if it's multi-functional. I'm looking for something very chic paris meets new york type of thing... Thanks!

I love Blair's style. You should try getting a bag from Lesportsac. Most of them are more casual, but there are a few styles that are okay. The price range is more $100-200 though.
Here's one that I think is perfect, It's by Diane von Firstenburg. I love the patterns and just the way the bag looks. There's a few so try going to: http://www.dvf.com/bags/totes/totes-handbags,default,sc.html
These are a perfect price range for you and are definetly high fashion. Hope this helps!
