Bag it: Juicy Couture Camouflage Canvas Tote

Tuesday, August 10th, 2010

Did you catch the Juicy sale today on Hautelook? If not, never fear – there’s still tons of Juicy to be had, and at great prices! I picked up this Juicy Couture Camouflage Canvas Tote earlier today and you should too. Here’s why: camouflage never goes out of style and works well with anything in your closet. This top handle bag is utterly versatile – carry it to work or play; tote it to the gym or put your laptop in for a jaunt to Starbucks. The neon pink ‘Choose Juicy’ slogan across the front is an added touch that keeps it fun and girly, and there’s also a ‘Love G&P’ slogan across the back. And you will most certainly love this bag!

Clutch Fever

Juliette Jake Crocodile Wrap and Wrap Clutch, $595.00 at Intermix

Can one really own too many clutches? I don’t think so! I’ve had clutch fever for quite a while now and am seeing so many must-haves. Pythons, crocs and wood, oh my! With so many styles to choose from, there is one for every style. I always like to choose clutches that really stand out. Shopping recently, I’ve come across some really special bags at beso.com. I’m so excited about my finds! Anyone else experiencing clutch fever this season?

Bag It: Put Me In Coach

Fun

So here’s the thing: I have started to wonder if the good folks at Coach are suffering from multiple personality disorder. I mean… Are they doing Dooney and Bourke (ok, could be the other way around), are they channeling Betsey Johnson? Or are they trying to create their own thing, altogether?

BUT. Crazy or not, I’m really digging the new designs for Holiday ’09. For those into branded products, their Inlaid C Brooke bags are fab. The Kristin Collection makes me swoon. And to tell you the truth, I’m seriously coveting the Patent Large Spotlight.

BUT.

As with anything, you take the good with the bad. And some of it is bad. Very, very bad. So it’s confusing.

BUT.

See for yourself and make up your own mind. And while you’re at it, take advantage of some of the great deals on Coach running right now on beso. You’d be crazy not to.

Efram, Not Efron – Tory Burch Efram Hobo Handbag

Tory Burch Efram Hobo Handbag

Tory Burch Efram Hobo Handbag

Sorry, Zac.  But when it comes to good looks and dependability, this bag wins us over any day.  With sleek glazed leather and embossed resin studs, Tory Burch’s Efram Hobo is at the top of our wishlists this fall.  Plus, it’s more likely that we’ll get this bag than get you.  We can picture tossing in our blackberries, Tom Ford sunglasses, keys, and wallets without giving a second thought as to whether or not the bag can keep up with our busy lifestyle or leave us for some young starlet.

Yorktown Road Tote and Purse

I am an official Yorktown Road fan. The materials are well chosen and the designs are simple and classy with a subtle modern twist. These soft-washed natural linen mini-zip purse and tote are very sweet with a thick and thin pleat touch and natural canvas lining.

If you need a bit more color, they also come in this rich golden yellow, deep orange and dark teal.

Urban Heirlooms Wallet-Purse

I was shopping around for purses for a friend’s birthday and after hours of online “window” gazing, I finally found this cute little leather wallet by Urban Heirlooms at Etsy. It’s not a full blown handbag, but it’s unique and uses vintage materials. I’m pro-recycling second hand pieces when it’s done right, and I like the creative replacement of buckle or snap with a vintage key. There is original design out there if you dig deep enough and it always beats the gift certificate cop out.
