This time all that glitters is gold! With it’s many great features of generous depth to fit more on-the-go necessities, leather-free, overall practicality (and even comes with velcro silencing patches), and attractive styling (eye catchingly glittery non-glitter good whether for day or night), I knew I had to own a bag from Manhattan Portage’s newly …
Talbots: My New Found Treasure
I’ve known about Talbots for years. I never gave them a real chance when I was in my early 20s (currently in my 30s). Even back then they carried basics and American classics; however, I believed they were for the more mature woman (nothing wrong with this but it didn’t appeal to me at the …
Stephanie Dawn
Stephanie Dawn is another brand I have uncovered with my new-found love for Vera Bradley’s quilted accessories. I believe that there is a place for every brand in the fashion and accessories world because everyone has something unique to offer to an audience of equally varying likes and dislikes. I do favor Vera Bradley’s products …
Thoughts on Vera Bradley
I’ve finally changed my mind about Vera Bradley. I didn’t like the brand when there was a craze several+ years ago. I’m normally a big fan of leather designer bags and definitely still am. Recently I spotted the pattern called “Sittin’ in a Tree” and I think it’s cute and has a younger vibe to …
Leigh & Luca Totes: Love at First Sight & My Go-To Type of Bag
I fell in love instantly with Leigh & Luca’s canvas totes. I first saw them offered on Gilt. I opted for the pretty dragonfly one. I was so happy when it finally arrived and couldn’t wait to carry it straightaway. They are great everyday bags and my go-to type of bag for traveling (that and …
MapTotes
Looking for a new shopping or school/study tote? Look no further. Maptotes is a cute and affordable solution to every day needs. I especially love their denim and organic cotton styles =). I was just wondering the other day why companies like 7FAM or Rock & Republic haven’t released a collection of denim bags?…. It’s …
Longchamp Handbags
For a while, I stayed away from this brand because it seemed like it was becoming an all too overly popular sensation with their Planetes signature style tote; which I happened to dislike at the time for whatever reason. A couple years later I noticed their Cosmos bowler at a local handbag boutique and fell …
Fendi at RueLaLa
At a fairly recent Ruelala sale; I thought these were cute… Love the embroidered details against their signature monogram. The pinkish lavender just pops off the bag. As you can imagine, they sold like hotcakes. I really love the tote with the peach trim =). *Photocredit: Ruelala
Katherine Kwei at Gilt
Today was the KK sale. I was keeping my fingers crossed that I would see something from her Spring 2009 Collection, and I did =)! I posted my top picks from the sale below. At regular price, her bags are tres expensive so this was considered a pretty good sale. I personally don’t care for …
Marc Jacobs, Old & New & Louis Vuitton Shimmer Halo
Just found these pretty bags via ShopStyle. Beautiful but crazy expensive- priced like an inexpensive or pre-loved Chanel. The costs of creating designer bags from an industry point-of-view may be rising but the prices are becoming out-of-control. I’m mad at MJ for his continued price hikes. Some of his bags in the Spring 2009 Collection …
