Fall Handbags Preview

By Amelie | August 4, 2010 | Filed Under Trend Report

Fall HandbagsYou may have noticed that we took a little hiatus from writing here. We had some technical issues but now that they’ve all been worked out, we’re back…and we’re ready to talk handbags once again. Specifically fall handbags. Afterall, it’s August and summer’s almost over. It’s time to start thinking about what you’ll be carrying this next season.

Fall handbags are hitting store shelves even as we write this. Some trends are being carried over from spring (studs, grommets, and other hardware), but most of the fall handbag trends are new.

Fall Handbags - Military InspiredOne trend we’re particularly excited to see make a comeback is military influence. Whether you shop designer handbags or spendy but less trendy labels, you’re sure to see military inspired handbags in various shapes and colors. What makes a bag military style? Think camouflage, canvas, and tan and olive shades.

While completely opposite from military style, you’ll also find romantic handbags making a comeback. These are handbags with flowing style, floral embellishments, lace, swirls, and other details that are distinctly feminine and soft. For more ideas in this category, check out our romantic handbags post.

When it comes to shape, think small and think satchel. Satchels have always been hot but this season has brought out numerous new satchel styles – particularly the convertible satchel. Fall is also all about mini bags, especially on long chains. So ditch that oversized tote for a hot little crossbody mini bag.

Fall Handbags - Romantic HandbagsFinally when it comes to fall handbags and color, look for deep reds and browns, golden yellows, and teal. Neutral shades are also hot. Don’t forget prints and exotic prints like python. You’ll see quite a few animal print handbags in fall collections.

Saky SacksSaky Sacks are “Green Style on the Go!” These reusable totes are perfect for trips to the market, beach, and pool as well as weekend getaways and kid stuff.

Available in many lovely prints including a pink flower print and a blue swirly spotted print, Saky Sacks are the ultimate in functionality, flexibility, and durability. That’s because they are:

  • Squishable
  • Compact and lightweight
  • Tear, stain, and water resistant

Steve Madden Brufflet

By Shari | June 6, 2010 | Filed Under Satchels

Steve Madden Handbags Like delicate whipped cream, the Steve Madden Brufflet is fluffy, feathery, white, and luxurious.

This ruffle satchel is truly lovely. It can be carried by hand, over the shoulder, or by the detachable crossbody strap. Other features include 1 inside zipper pocket and 2 inside compact pockets that can be used to hold a cell phone or other smaller items.

At $88, it’s truly a steal. A more trendy, stylish handbag under $90 would be difficult to find.

Snag the Steve Madden Brufflet at eBags.com. Also check out other Steve Madden handbags while you’re there.

Bodhi Temple Bag

By Carmen | May 27, 2010 | Filed Under Handbags

Bodhi Temple BagInspired by asian architecture, the Bodhi Temple Bag is truly a work of art. This striking leather handbag is made up of accordion-style layers with a 10.5 inch drop shoulder strap and a zipper top. The layers move together like an accordion which gives the bag a distinct shape and movement as it is worn. Each layer is lined with contrast piping which makes the rich pebble leather stand out.

The Bodhi Temple Bag makes a great smaller bag for everyday or nights out. It goes with just about anything but certainly doesn’t blend in the background. On the contrary, it’s definitely a head-turner.

Find the Bodhi Temple Bag at eBags.com for $318.

By Shari | May 26, 2010 | Filed Under New Arrivals

I LOVE Big Buddha handbags. They never fail to surprise and delight. Their newest collection is no exception. The new Big Buddha handbags are flirty, swirly, and fun. Think classic shapes paired with pastels, unique textures, and shiny accents.

One of my favorites from the new collection is the Big Buddha Bella. This tote features a swirl design with a flower and comes in several light colors. I also really love the Big Buddha Sugar and the Big Buddha Lollipop – both bags are made with a glazed texture and come in yummy sorbet colors.

Wise Produce

By Beneterre | May 18, 2010 | Filed Under Designer Blogs, Eco-Friendly

Balancing budgets, health concerns and taste when buying produce is challenging.  Experts at the Organic Trade Association, farmer’s markets and the US government can provide some guidance. There are 12 fruits and veggies that are known as the dirty dozen and it is best to buy the organic version of these:  Peaches, apples, sweet bell peppers, celery, nectarines, strawberries, cherries, kale, lettuce, imported grapes, carrots and pears.  Celebrate the tasty spring this year and bring home these fruits and veggies in an eco-chic reusable bag from Beneterre.  The Clam or Splash make perfect functional and stylish bag for these tasty treats.

Hop to it!

By Beneterre | May 17, 2010 | Filed Under Brand Spotlights, Eco-Friendly

Clink those frosty glasses of Pale Ale to celebrate the news that beer is good for your bones. Researchers at the University of California, Davis found that beer high in hops and barley, such as pale ales, are rich in silicon, a mineral important for maintaining bone density.  Not sure which Pale Ale you like best?  Buy individual bottles from six brewers and do a taste test.  Of course, you can carry them home in style in the Beneterre Cin Cin eco-chic reusable bottle carrier. http://www.ebags.com/product/beneterre/cin-cin/144223
