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 …
Rebecca Minkoff’s & Lanvin’s Cute Crossbodys
I’ve been loving crossbody bags recently for the obvious reasons (hands-free option and when a big heavy bag isn’t preferable). They are great for date nights (especially theater nights) and when you need to carry only necessities for classes or on errands. Here are two favorites of mine: Rebecca Minkoff Classics MAC Crossbody Clutch: “Oversized …
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 …
Petunia Pickle Bottom
The Cake Collection accessories are especially cute but I wish they weren’t all baby oriented. Some of the prints remind me of LeSportsac (like the Morning in Mumbai). Once I wore a bag into a Manhattan Petco and two guys were behind me talking to each other about “why does she have a diaper bag?” …
