Men have long raised their eyebrows when they see the price tag on women’s handbags. Women know bags serve as some of the hardest-working accessories we own. They carry what women need for the day, but more importantly, they sensitively express mood, personal characteristics, and fashion sense. Mass-produced bags are not for the fashion-conscious shopper.

Stunning Bags! Awful Name! VALEXTRA…Do The Right Thing, Change the Name of the Bag!
While I love Valextra bags, for the life of me, I can't figure out why they named these bags...Isis Small Bag with Strap and Isis Tote. Yes, the bags are handsomely stunning but come on...isn't there a better name??? Seriously, Valextra, it's time to re-name this bag. The name is totally offensive to most people. I blog about your bags all the time. I even own one (that I … [Read more...]
Givenchy Ankle Boots Are Worth The Investment!

Valentino's Tote with the knotted fringe and glam metallic pebbled leather is "all that and more" especially in person! We love carrying totes because you can put so much in them, and they still look great. The C-Rockee bag although roomy on the inside is just as fab on the outside with the "of the moment" fringe detailing and soft leather. (Fringe is in, and then it's out and … [Read more...]
I Can’t Help But Love This Season’s Valentino
Although I adore Valentino, I keep thinking what can they possibly do that's different this season? I've become bored with some of the same shoes and bags I've seen these last few years. Luckily I found some new Valentino fashion favorites that are on my must-have "for fall" list in keeping with their signature (studding) detail and elegant pieces with an edgy twist. … [Read more...]
