JJ Winters is known for one thing and one thing only. Fringe! Mountains and mountains of fringe! I’m talking down to your knees fringe! So you can probably imagine my surprise when I stumbled across a JJ Winters style that… (gasp)… doesn’t have an ounce of fringe. That’s right, not even a single strand. Meet the JJ Winters Suede Hobo!
Summer is just about to come to an end and a quick getaway was just what my household took, to celebrate its farewell. We ended our hot summer venture at one of the largest thrill and water parks in the nation. The sense of going highly fashioned to such a place is quickly disregarded, and instead all is focused on what handbag to wear. Hands down, you must take a hands-free bag!
I packed my Carlos Falchi snake-embossed cross body bag and the only annoyance I experienced was the fact that I had to carry multiple family members’ cell phones around. Cross body bags come with such diversity and in different price ranges, it only takes time to discover which suits your personality the best.
With that said, here are some of the latest: It’s no surprise that a Marc by Marc Jacobs piece makes our list with the Marc Jacobs Preppy Nylon Natasha. It’s a nice and clean style with an attractive U-shaped zip closure. Nylon with leather trim never fails to stay sturdy, but if you prefer an all-leather option the Vanity Cross Body by Rebecca Minkoff would suit you best. Not only does it feature all pebbled leather throughout, but is surrounded with tiny grommets at its trim, giving it a nice vintage touch.

I never use to like small bags but I have a current obsession with evening bags. I’m not even sure why since I hardly ever go out at night but they sure are stunning to look at. Something about evening bags just catch your eye. Perhaps because the designers put more detail in them or the fact that they look like small pieces of art. The ONE by JJ Winters “Evening Mini” Bag definitely caught my eye and for the price I love it to pieces.
It’s very small with not much width to it. To be honest, I’m not sure what you could possibly fit in this bag without it looking to bulky but it sure is fabulous. The most you could probably fit in it is some credit cards, cash and a cell phone. Anything else would probably stick out.
I just love Hilary Duff’s style, especially when it comes to her taste in handbags! Normally, I am able to identity her arm candy after just one glance. But the identity of this particular handbag eluded me for days. It looked so familiar, but I just couldn’t put my finger on it. Then it dawned on me… Vanessa Hudgens has the exact same one. Of course! It’s the JJ Winters Hornback Studded Shoulder Bag!
