I Heart.....

the new Coach Kristin line....















I know recently Coach has gone the route of flashy prints and colors. I understand the impulse, but I've never warmed to them. With the Kristin, Coach returns to it's tradition of beautiful, classically elegant bags. And the colors are just delish!

Get yourself over to Coach: The Kristin Collection and check out the entire line. With prices ranging from $138.00 - $1000.00, there's something lovely for every budget in this collection!

Have to say....

I'm lovin' the look of the J Crew Beacon Tote...



Check this one and it's two sister bags out at:

J.Crew Women's Handbags

What can I say....

I'm LOVIN' Isaac Mizrahi's handbag offerings for Liz Claborne this fall!

Just a few of my favorites!...





Jet Setter Satchel - $95.00

Not only do I love the subtle color and style of this bag (through it also comes in an electric shade of mauve!), but you are virtually getting two bags for the price of one! Come on, how yummy is that?




"Lady like", tailored - and a shoulder strap! What more can you ask for?






Love the shape, love the color - the perfect punch up for your fall work wardrobe! (And yes, if that orange is a bit much for you, it also comes in a more sedate black!)



Heritage tartan Flannel Satchel - $80.00

Tartan plaid remains a perennial Fall favorite. This deep purple flannel plaid would be just the right touch for your fall wardrobe.

And if you want to add just a bit of the wild this fall...



Carryall Chic Weekender - $95.00

Hop on over to Liz Claiborne New York and check them all out!

While it's feeling anything....

But Spring right now where I am, with snow, snow, snow falling, 24-7 Style gives a welcome respite by featuring a spring green bag from Kipling...

New Bags from Kipling!

Ah Work Bags....

If you're still working (and I pray you are) you can always use a good and good lookin' one....

Here are a couple that meet both of the above and respect your budget...



Sofia Tote on sale $119.00

I'm a sucker for pretty linings in bags (it's like getting a cheering present while you're digging for your stuff) and I love the green print lining in this one...



I've been wanting a red bag. If I wasn't so completely broke right now, I'd snap up this one...

I love....

A good sized bag...



Split Mary Ann Bag - $41.00

With a good wide mouth....




The color is great too - different but not so much that it wouldn't work for work!

A shout out of thanks to Charmingly Chic for their heads up on this bag via their post - Split Mary-Ann Bag

The Hayden-Harnett for Target line...

Is a winner in my book.

See the entire line here: Hayden-Harnett for Target

I checked these bags out at my local Target yesterday and thought they were fab!

My favs:




Hayden-Harnett for Target Double Flap Bag - $29.99



Hayden-Harnett for Target Canvas Hobo Bag - $39.99

The above bag comes in brown and black as well - but I'm thinking I would love this printed bag for the spring!

Even my hardly bag obsessed sister liked these bags! But she surprised me when I suggested the following bag as a great boho bag (she is very much a boho style kind of gal). She said it was more of a scary bag!



Hayden-Harnett for Target Chain Bag - $44.99

I'll leave you, gentle readers, to decide which of us is right on that one! ;-)

Why the Birkin....

Will set you back 4000+....



I have to admit to having something of a love/hate feeling about Hermes. On one hand, I see no reason why they can offer a more reasonably priced line for those of us who don't have money to burn. On the other hand, I have to admire their approach to what they do - it is a true dedication to hand crafting.

I've got my eye on...

Bodhi Bags....



Safety Clutch - $748.00




Accordion Tote - $378.00



Signature Messenger - $748.00



Pebble Hidi - $618.00

Contests!....

Don't you just love them...when their giving away a classic handbag!
