Well, it’s officially April and you know how the saying goes, “April showers bring May flowers”. Soon it might be raining constantly, so it’s always grand to be prepared for it in the most fashionable way possible.

People always buy stylish rain coats and boots for the wet weather but why not a handbag too? Marc Jacobs has designed the most perfect tote for when the weather is less desirable. The “Yo Yo Dot” Rain Tote with Umbrella is the most cleverest bag I’ve seen in quite sometime.

The fact that it’s made from PVC is always a plus for wet weather. We all know that rain tends to leave stains on leather. I know whenever it’s raining, I tend to use my handbags that are PVC or patent. The feature I love the most about this tote is the fact that it includes an umbrella! Who would of ever have thought to attach an umbrella to a bag? The umbrella literally slips in right in the front of the bag making it easy for you to grab it in case you feel some sprinkles coming from the sky. Then as soon as it’s done raining you simply close it up and slip it right back.

Hold the name brand calling for a second and give this piece one more glimpse. Surprisingly, this bag doesn’t belong to a juvenile centered handbag mogul; it’s actually presented by the creations of American fashion designer Alexander Wang. This is definitely not your typical Wang, if you ask me. The Wang I admire brings out the best hardware and structures an edgy piece can present, not so much ecstatic vibe and color. We don’t dislike the Walker Doodle Print Backpack; it’s just a very different interpretation of what Alexander Wang is about. As every well known name out there has fulfilled, a funky and loud piece is a must have in every designers collection.

Spring is here and soon Summer will be vastly approaching us. Even though I live close to the beach I hardly go. The sand annoys me like there is no tomorrow. I absolutely hate when it gets stuck to my skin then just gets all over my car. What I hate more is when all the stuff I bring to the beach, especially my essentials, has sand all over them. This is inevitable though since most beach bags have holes in them to “try” to make the sand fall out.

When I discovered the Dolce & Gabbana “Black & White” Beach Bag I Immediately thought it was the greatest beach bag ever designed. No, it can’t keep the sand out but it sure does keep you more organized. Most beach bags are over-sized and you just throw everything you own in them. With this bag everything is labeled, which makes it a little bit easier to keep the sand out. If everything has it’s own little compartment you take it out and put it back in when you’re down with it.

Whenever I’m traveling, especially by airplane, I always have a huge problem with packing. I always pack way too much and I can never decide what I want to put in my carryon. Not to mention, the restrictions these days for carryon items is so difficult. One purse or lap top bag and a carryon bag which can’t have A to Z in it.

It’s always been a mission of mine to find a purse that’s big enough to also fit my lap top in it so I don’t have issues with the TSA. Of course it’s impossible and I end up having to stuff my laptop in my carry on bag, which takes away room from my shoes and purses. Every fashionista’s nightmare right?

When I came across the One Language “City Tote”, i thought it was a brilliant idea.

I can admit, I’m definitely someone that hates getting older. I’m at the point where I don’t even celebrate my birthday anymore because just saying I’m a year older kills me. I don’t know why but it does. I’ve always believed in the saying you’re only as old as you feel but for some reason I can’t make that sink into my head.

As I get older, it’s sometimes fun to reminisce about the past or things I loved as a girl with my friends. The LeSportsac Deluxe “EveryGirl” Tote was kind of a reminiscent of my childhood. My friends and I took dance lessons, loved makeup, thought we were in love with boys and loved just being girlie when we were younger. This bag pretty much displays everything we were.

I’m not sure if I would ever buy this bag, but it definitely is cute. The colors and all the pictures on the bag are adorable. I could totally see a younger girl loving this bag but in reality not many parents would buy a child a bag that costs $98 unless they were insanely rich.

With a New Year comes a new look for one of Burberry’s most carefree tote bags. What’s not to love about the Check Packable Totes? As soon as they hit the market a while back, they made the perfect fit to whatever category of Bagista its owner fell into.

The moms, students, traveler and store hoppers all fell fond of this lightweight, minimal maintenance tote bag. The double flat handles, flexible nylon lining and the roomy adjusting draw stings are still in its original place, but it’s the featured check pattern that gives this tote something new to rave about.

Burberry converts its check classic plaid to brush strokes plaid giving it a fresh new look that arrives just in time for Spring. The vibrant oversized strokes are sure to compliment your daily look, something most oversized designer patterns fail to do.

When it comes to my room, I’m a complete mess. My room looks like a tornado full of clothes, handbags and shoes hit it. However, outside of my room I’m very organized almost to the point where you can probably label me as O.C.D. I like everything to be in order and very neat. When, I’m traveling this little problem I have can be seen big time. I have to plan in advance, everything has to match and be in their own separate section. By this I mean, shoes with shoes, clothes with clothes, makeup with makeup and so on.

As soon as I saw the Anya Hindmarch travel accessories I was sold. This is exactly what someone like me needs. To have everything in order, while I’m traveling is a blessing and to have it done in a fashionable manner is considered more of a miracle. What I love most about them, is that they’re all labeled! This not only keeps you extra organized but it makes it much easier to find things. Instead of searching through a bunch of bags for specific things, the bags tell you exactly whats in them! Definitely my kind of travel accessories!
