ReBelle Friendship Bags

ReBelle Friendship BagsMost of the time I write about bags that are made with my age group in mind so when I heard about this story I jumped at the chance.

The detachable handbags come with a zipper down the middle so you can share the matching bag with your best friend.  The bags come in special themes and accompany the ReBelle Story of six girls from places around the world that meet at summer camp and become pen pals.

Coming soon… interview with Daisy, designer of these friendship bags!

MAC Makeup Bag Saves the Day

MAC Makeup BagMaybe I’m just messy, but my makeup bag usually has to be replaced every so often because it’s getting a wee bit tattered looking thanks to its constant use. Yes, I tend to change bags often so my makeup bag is often tossed from one bag to the next. So, I’m thinking that it’s time to treat myself to a new one and this one certainly is quite gorgeous and the color would work with most of my bags, if I want to go there. ;)

Details… “Soft and luxurious, the M·A·C Rectangle/Small makeup bag goes quilted. Style-wise, fabulously referential to everything that counts this season. The chic cherry shade and gold chain detail provide a luxe couture note. Limited edition.”

Ivy Satchel by Fossil

Ivy Satchel by Fossil, tumbled goat leatherThis bag reminds me of the seventies. Patchwork everything was really popular and this bag would have fit in really well. And it would look just as good today as it would have back then.  It has a modern design that is going to keep you going as long as you want to carry the bag. And a personal favorite of mine… it’s roomy and I love the softness of the bag. (psss it’s tumbled  goat leather)
