Did you know that purchasing pink handbags can actually help in the fight against breast cancer? eBags.com donates 10% of the retail price of any pink product purchased on their site to Susan G. Komen for the Cure. This is a year-round program called Pick Pink and since July 2004, customers have helped raise more than $500,000.
Brighten Up With Yellow Handbags
Cold weather and winter got you down? Well, if the sun isn’t around to brighten your day, just grab one of these beautiful yellow handbags to cheer yourself (and your wardrobe) up. Yellow is a great color because not only can it go with many outfits without looking boring, but it works for several different seasons. Don’t believe me? Think of sundresses for spring and summer and the browns, golds and reds of the changing leaves of autumn. Then picture one of these bags and you’ll see the connection.

Do you Buy Made in America?
| After reading an issue of WWD I was very intrigued by an article I read talking about Michelle Obama and her preferring to buy goods that are “made in America.” This made me think…awhile back I was very intersted in trying to buy products made in the United States. This definately takes some background research. I just happened to be in the kitchen area at Target trying to find a blender made in America… I couldn’t find one! So, since my expertise is in handbags, I am going to help all of you by showing you some handbags that are produced right here in the U.S.A. Experts are saying that this “trend” of buying products made in America will only get bigger with Michelle Obama supporting it. There are some websites that will help you out; try http://www.madeinusa.org/ before you go out looking for your next appliance or accessory made in the States. Now to the handbags…. here are just a few that you can choose from: | |
