How’s this for some trendy news? Adriana Castro, designer of exotic skin handbags, is going to be featured as a shop-in-shop at Henri Bendel’s Fifth Avenue prestigious boutique!
If you’ll remember, I posted an entry on Adriana Castro here. Not only are her handbags hip and youthful, but they are also made from exotic skins, with python being the most recently introduced skin. They are also available in lizard, ostrich and crocodile and come in bright vibrant shades of azalea, yellow, orange and purple.
If you’re in the New York area, check out her Fall 2009 collection along with her Annie Clutch along with the Adriana Satchel and Ariela Satchel as well as wallets and more, which will be on display in the Streets of Shops at Henri Bendel until 4/24/09! They will be carried by Henri Bendel’s Fifth Avenue store permanently!
If you can’t make it to the New York area, remember, you can always purchase them online as well! Take a moment to view her current line as well as her new products that she recently introduced!
Adriana Castro handbags and accessories are unique and will set you apart from the crowd! If you’ve already purchased a few Adriana Castro products, let me know what you think! I absolutely love them!

Did you make a lot of New Years Resolutions last year that somehow got lost sometime around the summertime? With a new year upon us comes a new list of resolutions for 2009. I’m sure many of you have the desire to exercise more, get organized and to add a little color to your wardrobe. Here’s a great tip to help you get started!

While handbags can come in many different price ranges, pick one that doesn’t require a loan to add some style to your outfit. From Birkin and Louis Vuitton to Kate Spade, pairing a great handbag can be a challenge. When selecting a handbag, choosing a good quality material with a clean design is a must. Rather than selecting the traditional black, brown or saddle colored handbag, choose one that will standout. By selecting a hue like red, orange, sky blue, kelly green, marigold, cream or white, you have chosen a bag that is neutral in color and can add some rich color to nearly any outfit. Marvel at a few up and coming handbag designers to meet your budget after the jump.
While Kate Spade and Louis Vuitton bags can be extremely pricey, take a look at Adriana Castro and Jane Marvel, two handbag designers to fit nearly any budget. For the budget conscious, Jane Marvel offers handbags of all different varieties from $42 to $150. From the Run-Around bag to the Puddle Jumper, Jane Marvel bags are not only affordable, but also have a rich color palette that are great for adding color to nearly any outfit!

If you’re in the market for an investment piece that you can wear year after year, check out the Hobo bag by Adriana Castro or even the Mintaka Tote (my personal favorite). By adding a shot of color to your outfit, standout from the crowd with style intelligence and confidence!
