Happy St Patrick’s Day

I admit, I do not have a green bag for St. Patricks Day. *gasps* Although if I planned ahead a little bit better, I would probably be rocking one of the beauties below. St. Pattys Day kinda just crept up on me this year.

So here, pictured below are my favorite green bags of the season.

There’s nothing like a great neutral handbag in an ultra classic shape. That’s why I absolutely love the latest version of the Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Paglia Boston Tote! What I like most about this bag is the interesting spin Bottega Veneta has placed on their signature woven leather style. If you take a closer look, you will find that tonal raffia has been incorporated into the weave. This gives the bag a very earthy feel, but without looking too hippie-ish. In fact, I think this bag would be perfect for everyday use.

Graduation is fast approaching and many promising new people will soon be entering the workforce. And what does a college grad need to get their career off to an organized start? A nice leather work tote, of course! So if you’re looking for a great new work bag, either for yourself or for someone you love, then check out the Julie K Robin Tote.

This extra large leather tote would be perfect for work. It is simple, but it also has a little bit of spunk to it (something I hear celebs such as Angelina Jolie and Drew Barrymore really like about this designer’s work). I think it would be perfect for a young person that doesn’t want to look too stuffy in the workplace.

What do you think about a bag within a bag? Might sound like nonsense to some, or like the latest and trendiest style to hit the purse world to others. Although Dolce & Gabbana isn’t the first house to present the bag-in-bag style, do meet their version, the ‘Miss Angie’ Shopper, new to their 2010 Cruise Collection.

I can see how you can sway either way of giving this a thumbs up or thumbs down. You might see this as one elegant and feminine shopper, or simply an expensive interpretation of a drawstring laundry bag within a flowery tote bag. From a distance, it might be difficult to distinguish that the material of choice is in fact leather throughout, from the clinched drawstrings to the exterior shopper.

The Derek Lam Nadia Leather Hobo is getting a lot of attention by many style savvy professionals. Rachel Zoe has lauded this bag on her blog and other fabulous bloggers are writing about this sharp and edgy bag. A fact that caught my attention after I started to research it! So, this review is definitely due for our readers! Others are lauding the beautiful, unique, soft and subtle hues of the tie-dye version for $3,950 at Derek Lam or the basic but sleek black version of this bag. However, the dark brown cognac color is the one that really spoke to me as a bag you could carry every day!

At first glance, I’m a tad bit reminded of the bag Anne Hathaway carried in Devil Wear’s Prada, but in reality it is a balanced bag with asymmetrical details. The off-kilter front pocket adds a wonderful graphic architectural element to this sophisticated vertical hobo styling. I adore the movement and softness of the tassle which is absolutely the perfectly length to balance the bag. Some tassles are overpowering and oversized for their bag but this one is just right in my humble opinion!

When fellow blogger BRS mentioned the NY Rocker Stam by Marc Jacobs a while back, the majority of the crowd definitely agreed that the infamous Stam looked awesome dressed up in extra sequins and studs. Just when you thought Marc Jacobs couldn’t make the Rocker Stam any cuter, he introduces its miniature version, the New York Rocker Little Stam.

I find this piece absolutely adorable; if the original Stam size is a bit too blingy for your taste, then this size might be the right one for you. The Little Stam carries the same kiss lock closure, wide opening, and chain-linked strap as all its other Stam ancestors do, yet it’s found compact in this miniature model.

Guess what ladies! Turquoise is BACK and it’s better than ever! And, of course, I am over-the-moon excited about this because turquoise is one of my all-time favorite colors. I especially like it when it is a really bright turquoise, like the color of a tropical lagoon (mmm… I can feel that warm breeze now). It is such a great color when you’re looking for something that will give your outfit a little pop and it is surprisingly versatile. Turquoise looks great with yellow, green, pink, navy… you name it! I also think it looks especially lovely when paired with chocolate brown or black. Oh my mouth is watering just thinking about it!

Anyone have a pool party or any other sun events planned soon? A couple of more days until my Spring Break officially kicks in as I’m anticipating some rest and relaxation under the warm South Padre Island sun. Accessory wise I would say I’m ready, although I’m content with using last seasons beach bag for now, it sure doesn’t hurt to see what’s new in the world of designer cruise and S/S collections.

One adorable piece that caught my eye is the Mini Squishee Star by Eric Javits, a bag that’s as cute as the name it carries.
