Cruelty Free Handbag

Big Buddha Handbag, Penn Hobo

You know what is awesome? When you realize a company you have long supported is cruelty free. I've had many Big Buddha purses in the past and this Penn Hobo is on my current "want" list. Soft imitation leather, minimal yet edgy hardware, and at just under $100 it's as if it was made just for me!

Vintage Purses from Etsy

I just love a good vintage mid-century purse. Don't you? They have so much character; so unique and quirky. The 50's and 60's had such a diverse range, everything from super sleek lucite to quirky cute Enid Collins. I love each and every one of these bags, but I think that Craig satchel is my favorite...

Bags with Bows

There are so many bags with bows on the market right now, no matter what your price point, no matter what your style, you are bound to find one you like. Personally, I am so diverse stylistically that I happened across nine that I love. Well... honestly I came across probably 20, maybe more, but whittled it down to my top nine. Tough, Sweet, Sophisticated, Evening, Work, which bag would you get the most use out of?
