Heavy metal: the new metallic handbag

July 13th // 1 Comment

Summer is the time for light fabrics and beach totes but fall and winter are on the opposite end of that spectrum (unless you live on an island somewhere!). If you’re about to invest in a bag for the long-term, think ahead and go for the gold. Or silver. Skins and metallics are huge for next season so I wanted to share a few options I’ve had my eye on:

Reader’s Request: Splurging on the Right Purse… Decisions, Decisions

August 19th // Comment Here

The point of splurging on an investment piece is that you can wear it quite often without fear that it will  go out of style come next season. This gives you more bang for your buck, right? Kat wrote in letting me know she is in the market for a new ’4 seasons’ purse and would like my suggestions:

When looking for a handbag that will go the distance, here are a few rules I like to follow:

  • Pick a neutral color
  • Stay away from trendy adornments (fringe, sequins, etc)
  • Keep the logo or brand name discreet
  • Choose one made with luxurious fabric and fine materials that are durable

You’ve got the satchel, crossbody and shoulder bag all in one, single purchase! While the Alexandra might be on the pricier side of things, any item that is multi-functional may be worth the investment :)
