I just attended my Alma Mater’s homecoming game. Getting dressed for it is always a chore as I’m not a big “fan” of team gear. I typically wear basics and add a spot of my team’s color. Ironically, I have very little of either color in my wardrobe. The second big fashion issue with attending these games is bag related. Taking my big satchel, hobo or other style I own in my closet invariably involves sitting the bag below my seat…or holding it the entire game. Neither is too appealing. With today’s abundance of small cross-body bags and color options, it should be a snap finding a suitable bag for these events! Here’s some great ones for you to consider on game day!

It could have been worst if this accessory was actually made out of a single strip of rat pelt (groans), but before any animal activist makes prompt judgment, this piece is indeed faux fur.

Ever since I was little, I always heard my Mother say how much she hated Patent leather. She always complained that it gets easily scratched and that the shine goes away rather quick. I guess, because of her despise for patent leather I grew up loving it. I actually prefer patent leather over any other type of leather. To me, it’s flashy and fun! Patent leather is a blessing in disguise, because if your bag gets dirty you can easily clean it! Sounds pretty amazing to me.

No matter how much I want to deny it, fur seems to be holding as a trend for this coming Fall. Whether it’s real or faux, fur is literally everywhere. I can’t say I am a huge fan though. There’s just something about fur on handbags that doesn’t look right to me. But I did manage to stumble across one that isn’t too bad. Meet the Marc by Marc Jacobs Party Rat Regine Bag!
