Teal Heels!!!!

17 Oct

Every Fall & Winter a slew of  gorgeous rich colors make their way into our wardrobes. Most of us turn to our black, grey, brown and navy pieces throwing the occasional burgundy and camel in the mix and call it a day.  This year however, I’m already seeing much more color- tons of reds, greens, oranges and purples but my favorite color of all is TEAL! I love how luxuriously fun teal is! The emerald meets deep blue hue is so pretty and pairs well with many other colors like black, grey, camel and gold!  I can’t even express how much I love gold and teal together!

A great way to incorporate this divine color into your wardrobe is to start with a heel!  Check out these styles below!

Proenza Schouler’s New Lust Worthy Bag

8 Nov

‘Bag ladies’ all know and love the PS1 bag by Proenza Schouler, well now it’s time for you to meet the PS1’s big sister…..the PS13 from their resort’13 collection!  Although the bags are totally different in design, they accomplish the same goal- a casually chic feel of understated elegance.  A bag like this only comes around once in a while.  Think about it, most designer bags appear to be designer bags while Proenza Schouler has mastered the “normal” extraordinary everyday bag that you can get away with wearing to the grocery store without looking silly.  I love how the top handles are sturdy and you have the option to wear as a shoulder bag also. The front flap pocket and backside zip pockets are great as well….. accessing keys, gum or a cell phone without going into the main bag is always a plus.  I must admit I will always be loyal to the PS1, but this new bag is pretty amazing as well.

Available at Proenza Schouler ($2,250-$6,550)

Too bulky for you? There is also a clutch version. See below

Meet Pierre, Balmain’s Debut Bag

The Original Stylish Crossbody Bag

1 Nov

Since the original Cambridge Satchel was introduced in 2008 it’s been a cult favorite among the fashion crowd, bloggers went absolutely crazy for it. The academic silhouette a la book bag style can be dressed up or dressed down and the cross body style is perfect if you need your hands free to shop etc. It’s a perfectly stylish mom bag for that reason.  Made in the UK, these bags come in a variety of sizes and colors including metallic, neon and pastels. I consider this bag a MUST HAVE in your collection.  The Cambridge Satchel Co.  has a variety of bags available and they also have a great clearance section that includes bags with slight flaws that are noted.

 

 

Cambridge bags are very reasonably priced and very well made bag (usually $120-$220) If you don’t already own one of these timeless bags, I suggest you make it happen. You will be glad you did!

 

…but don’t you fret if that’s out of your budget……Steve Madden makes a very similar buckled bag for about half the price and it’s on sale at Nordstrom!!!!! YAY!

 

Shop Steve Madden bags at Nordstrom.

My Favorite Fringe Bag Just Got Better………

15 Sep

Back in April I wrote a post about my new favorite faux leather fringe bag that I scored for $24.99 from Target.  I still wear it and love it, it’s a creamy color that matches everything and I can beat it up without worrying.   The good news is they still have it at target and they have added a new color, beige. In addition to this beige color they have added a new fringe bag in a beautiful blue suede like material for $29.99.  Perfect bag meets a perfect price!!!!!!
