kate spade canvas shopperThe canvas trend is really starting to take off! This is one of Kate Spade’s canvas creations-it’s her License Plate Canvas Medium Shopper. I think it’s cute; definately something that I can see myself carrying around on a day of shopping or even just day-to-day. Measuring 15.5″ x 10.5″ x 5.75″, it is sure to fit all of your stuff, and maybe even leave room for more! Interested in canvas but maybe don’t l-o-v-e this style, check out many more great canvas bags!

Meet Helena de Natalio Handbags! These gorgeous handbags are perfect for everyday! A little background…. Helena de Natalio Handbags were created to bring back the pleasure of dressing up. The unique world of colors and details hidden inside each bag have been created to remind you of the joys of the little things in life. From the way each piece is hand sewn, or the original handcrafted detail on the outside, to colorful things on the inside—Helena de Natalio handbags are unique…. The best thing about them…besides their handbags of course…is the designer. Helen Hoppock moved to Buenos Aires, Argentina to fulfill her dream of designing leather bags in South America. Helen was inspired to begin her line of socially responsible leather accessories after completing her peace corps service as a small business development volunteer in the town of Natalio, Paraguay. The designer personally oversees production and guarantees that each bag is made by an artesian who is paid fair wages and receives benefits in a healthy work environment. A glimpse at her line~~~~~

Chloe Bay Bag Chloe Handbags are beautiful works of art! I personally love Chloe everything…especially their handbag collections. One classic beauty is the Chloe Bay Bag! The simplicity of this bag is beautiful, yet modern. This handbag would be the perfect addition to any, and I mean any outfit. The only downfall about this beauty….it’s price:( It is not affordable for everyone , at a price of $1780-$2195 But there is hope for those of us on a tighter budget…and no, not fakes! I found a perfect similar bag from Bo Bo Bags, called the Multipocket Top Handle Satchel. The price is resonable at $240.00. It comes in beautiful black patent, red patent and orange patent, and also various soft leather colors. It’s not a Chloe but it has the look of simple, modern fashion…which we all love! When a designer is too expensive for you…don’t freight…you can still find a handbag that works for you!

Carry the world on your shoulder. It’s easier than you think. Each bag sold is making the world a more beautiful place. Really! Not only does every ERIQ bag include a limited print of an original piece of artwork (that’s been shown and sold in some super-swanky gallery– tell your friends), by purchasing it, you’ve helped children affected by HIV/AIDS in Africa through our charity AVERT www.avert.org. See…you should feel good. And beautiful.

OSP Baltic Large WalletEvery handbag deserves a stylish purse or wallet to go with it… it’s all in the little details, whether you like leather purses or non leather, large purses or small purses- it doesn’t matter! Why invest all that money in the handbag of your dreams if your purse isn’t up to scratch? Purses come in all shapes, sizes and colours so there really isn’t any excuse to not be completely coordinated- you could even have one to match every handbag (although that may be a little extreme…) This OSP by Osprey London Baltic Large Wallet is designed in the most beautifully soft leather- the gentle fold detailing on the front of this wallet adds the perfect finishing touch. This OSP wallet is classic yet not boring, is subtle but not plain- in other words I love it!

Tumi Spectator Tote HandbagThe new Spectator Tote Handbag from Tumi comes in a richly textured white coated canvas from Italy, and it is trimmed in deep brown vacchetta leather. This beautiful tote handbag is a head turner. This is one of my favorite handbags in Tumi’s spring collection. The materials are gorgeous. The shape and design of the bag are very classy, and the leather trim & details on this handbag are unmatched. This is a must-have for spring.

Nica Beech ToteNica always produces unique designs and this bag is no exception- this is the Nica Beech Tote and is designed out of a fabulous faux leather (fabulous because its so soft and has a stunning aged effect finish!) I love the style of this bag as its slouchy, summery and I can carry all my life around in it! The pale blue/green colour of this shoulder bag will add a subtle touch of colour into my wardrobe, whilst still being highly wearable- this handbag will go with everything! (and if it doesn’t I’ll just have to buy it in every colour!) The over sized charm on this bag ties in nicely with the embellished trend…. and is the perfect finishing touch.

Cosmetic Bag to Evening Bag!

Cole Haan Village Collection Large CosmeticAlright, so this isn’t exactly supposed to be a clutch, but I think that it would make a great one! This is Cole Haan’s Village Collection Large Cosmetic.  One way that I save money on clutches is to buy cosmetic bags or small travel bags. Usually you can’t tell the difference, and it’s a lot cheaper than buying the actual evening bag. Even if you are going designer, you will save some money. My advice for this summer… shop around; look for sales on cosmetic bags and use them as clutches. Nobody will know!

Hayden Bag I absolutely HEART the Limited edition Hayden Panettiere Bag by Dooney & Bourke! Aside from being a beautiful, SUPER LARGE, rich-colored red patent leather handbag, the bag’s detail even features 18 carat gold finish hardware! Hayden Bag AD J.J. Winters Patent Buckle Satchel The Hayden bag retails for $500, so if you’re not quite sure about dropping that much on a red patent leather bag, you can save a little on the J.J. Winters Patent Buckle Satchel. The J.J. Winters patent satchel is stylish, has adorable fuchsia satin lining, costs less than the Hayden, and makes for a quality luxury handbag investment. Big Buddha Ibiza Bag

If you’re really not yet invested in the patent leather craze, save a ton of dough on a well designed, but moderately priced Big Buddha Ibiza Bag.
