Marissa’s Favorite Handbag of 2011: Michael Kors Joan Bag


I’m sure it comes as no surprise when I say my favorite handbag of 2011 was by none other than Michael Kors. In the past two years I have went from loving multicolored handbags to being obsessed with black leather handbags that feature gold hardware. Every time I see any type of handbag in this color combination I literally squeal!

When Michael Kors released the “Joan” satchel, I was instantly in love. Yes, it wasn’t my typical color combination of black leather and gold hardware but it was truly a beautiful bag.

Clare Vivier Fold Over Clutch


A couple years ago, the color “cobalt” was everywhere. Every designer got in on the trend especially when it came to handbags. I don’t own anything cobalt, as it doesn’t match my wardrobe at all, but I will admit it’s a gorgeous color.

It seems that cobalt is back when a vengeance. Just today, I spotted a bunch of Michael Kors clothes in cobalt and now I see Clare Vivier has designed a simple but stunning “Fold Over” clutch in the popular color. I always agree with the saying, “Less is more” and that’s exactly what Clare Vivier did with the “Fold Over” Clutch.
