Let’s Get Weird: Oddball Bags for the Eccentric in You
One of the toughest victories in fashion is wearing a genuinely odd piece without looking like it’s wearing you. Such a feat requires great attention to detail and a sharp sense of styling; if the elements don’t fit together properly, the entire look topples over. It also requires, of course, the taste and willingness necessary […]
Warm up with spring’s sunshine-y yellows
For the first time this winter, it is really, genuinely, bone-chillingly cold in New York City. Yesterday, I got my puffer coat out of the closet for the first time since last winter; I had been surviving since November on just a wool coat, but sub-20-degree temperatures made me a holdout no longer. Today isn’t […]
Black and White and Chic All Over: The Season’s Best Bicolor Bags
Now that Spring 2013 bags are starting to show up for pre-order all over the Internet, it’s time that we started talking about the season’s biggest trends so that we can all begin the delicate process of planning our seasonal handbag purchases. (I’d be lying, though, if I didn’t admit that at least half of […]
‘Tis the season to add some shine to your handbag collection
The holidays are great for so many and varied reasons. The food (unless you’re on a diet), the family time (unless your relatives are crazypants), the fun holiday cocktails (unless you’re in AA) – it’s all so fun! (Maybe.) Of course, around here, we know at least one thing about the holiday’s that’s fun without […]
Get in the Halloween spirit (with bags, of course)
Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. I typically don’t dress up anymore, but I love decorating our apartment and of course eating all the candy (ok that is my favorite part). This year, I have costumes for Vlad and I to put on when we hand out candy to our trick-or-treaters. The only thing […]
The Best Burgundy Bags for Fall
We already told you that oxblood is the new black for fall, and everyone is continuing to talk about the color burgundy. I can’t stop obsessing – it’s just such a rich, lush color that goes with practically everything. Want to wear blacks with it? Great. How about if you love brown colors? Perfect. This […]
Gift Guide: Father’s Day 2012 for $650 or Less
Father’s Day is tricky. Lots of dads are either difficult to shop for or don’t really like getting presents at all, and there’s only so many times you can go buy dad some new black dress socks before things get a little boring and predictable. My suggestion? Use the opportunity to update your husband’s or […]
Add some sunshine to your life with the season’s best yellow bags
Last week’s weather in New York City was pretty terrible. There was nothing but rain, fog and stifling humidity for days on end, and even when the sun did peek out, it only served to seemingly boil the moisture in the air. Suffice it to say, my hair was not happy, and neither was the […]
Mother’s Day is coming and these bags should be on your gift list
Being a mom is a tough, tiring, sometimes-thankless gig. All the way from changing diapers to doing your college-aged kids’ laundry when they come home to visit, moms deserve more credit than they sometimes receive. Compared to how much a great mom can mean to her kids throughout their lives, a once-yearly Mother’s Day gift […]
Gear Up for Warm Weather: The Season’s Best Crossbody Bags
As you may have noticed, we didn’t do any posts about “Coachella style” around here. There are a few reasons for that: First, feathers + fringe + denim cutoffs does not = style. You only have to see so many pictures of Vanessa Hudgens in her day to day life before you realize that those […]
