Obsessed: Rebecca Minkoff Cerulean Blue Mini Affair Bag
I’ve always been a huge fan of the Chanel-esque diamond quilted Rebecca Minkoff Mini Affair Bag.. the diamond pattern and leather interwoven chain link strap style is a classic, as Chanel has already proven.
What I love about this bag, is that it’s an everyday-er. It’s the type of bag that can so easily go with what ever your fashion mood plays out – whether you’re dressed classic in a pencil skirt & pumps or rocking the casual chic look with basic tee & denims, the style of this bag is so versatile and will look great!
And the color! So gorgeous. What first caught my eye was the beautiful Cerulean Blue. I absolutely love the Cerulean ocean blue quilted pattern paired with the cool-toned silver hardware – such a great combo.

At the moment, I have a huge obsessed with Kate Spade and I think a lot of other fashion lover’s do too! I’ve known about Kate Spade for years but I feel like in the past year she’s really blown up! What I love about Kate Spade is that the brand exudes class but in a girly girl type of way. I personally think Kate Spade is probably the cutest designer brand out there and really lets women stay in touch with their ultra feminine side. I’m still dying to own the “Is this seat taken #Handsome Stranger” Tote. I wasn’t able to get my hands on one but it would have been perfect for school! It was pink, adorable and oh-so-me. Sigh, maybe one day I’ll bump into one!

My husband and I went out to eat at the local rib place last week. Oddly enough, we go there together frequently. While we were there, I found myself staring at the old license plates decorating the walls. There were definitely some unusual personalized ones. I tried to picture the stories behind them. Obviously, the seemingly haphazard words meant something to someone at one time. And then I thought to myself, wouldn’t it be neat if you could take some old license plates and make something out of them? You can probably guess what that something would be too! Unfortunately, I don’t think I am crafty enough for that. However, I did find a piece that looks somewhat like my vision. Introducing the Kate Spade “OFFWEGO” Road Trip License Plate Clutch!
Check out this luscious irregularly shaped shoulder accessory, a true go-anywhere bag. I seriously had to take a double look as I assumed it was a new arrival to Alexander Wang’s handbag collection. In fact, this beauty actually belongs to the ever-growing collection of Rebecca Minkoff.
There are no boundaries when it comes to Rebecca Minkoff’s optimistic picks, as they bravely grasp the attention of all types of fashionista’s. The Quinn Bucket Bag is a winner all around.
It’s ebony black and almond color and natural functionality as a shoulder bag will suit all types of occasions. Smooshy pebbled leather in a voluminous shape gives off a casual chic statement, and the hands-free style is absolutely suitable for heavy shoppers and stylish moms alike.
Founded in Germany in 2004, George Gina & Lucy is relatively new to the handbag world. I am not terribly familiar with the brand. In fact, my only encounters with the brand before now have been passing glances. However, after seeing the George Gina & Lucy Ni’Ihau Yeak Shoulder Bag, I felt compelled to do a little investigating.
George Gina & Lucy is described as an “ever-evolving collection of moving, living works of funky art”. Their handbags are geared toward the fashion-forward and modern woman, while still maintaining a sense of uniqueness that adds an element of playfulness to the mix. And when I look at the George Gina & Lucy Ni’Ihau Yeak Bag, that is exactly what I see! This seasonal-looking handbag features a natural cotton canvas exterior. It is very earthy-looking indeed!
For a little bit of color, this handbag also features a minty green leather panel on the front. The leather is actually woven together in a beautiful basket weave. This light and airy style is perfect for summer! I also like the black and white stripe lining and divided interior, which makes this handbag cute AND functional. Pair it with a floaty sundress for a great casual look!
Rebecca Minkoff never seems to be able to shake my radar. It isn’t her fault though. After all, her designs are always gorgeous! Recently, I have been admiring the Skylar Mini Bag. Wait, let me reword that. I have admired the Skylar Mini Bag ever since its original debut. However, I have recently gained a new admiration for this style. That is because Rebecca Minkoff has put a new spin on it! Meet the Rebecca Minkoff Die Cut Skylar Mini Bag!
Nothing beats a simple, basic handbag. Okay, perhaps that statement isn’t entirely true. So what beats a simple, basic handbag? A simple, basic handbag at an incredible price! I am such a sucker for a good deal. So when I came across the Gorjana Bleeker Bloom Fold Over Bag, I could hardly contain my excitement.
I’m a huge Sex and the City fan and I always have been. I loved all the girls but I probably liked Carrie the most. I’m a fashion lover and she was true New York fashionista. If you’re a fan of the show, remember when she was robbed and she didn’t want the robber to take her Jimmy Choo‘s? Or what about when she was flat broke and was shocked she’s spent so much on shoes? Or how about when someone stole her Manolo Blahnik shoes at a party and her friend didn’t want to pay for them? Yes, as you can see I’m a die hard fan and I’ve seen every single episode. I bring this up, because a majority of the time we saw Carrie carrying a Fendi Baguette in the show. I suppose it was her handbag of choice and it made me love the bag so much that I wanted one. Unfortunately, I was never able to get one but I still can’t wait for the day that I own one!
I’m a classic and timeless kind of girl when it comes to my fashion taste. My wardrobe style is very modern Audrey Hepburn. She’s my idol and you’ll always find me in dresses, skirts and shirts that I think she would wear. However, every now and then I like to dress kind of edgy just to be a little different. It doesn’t happen very often but when it does I like to go all out. The Michael Kors Jet Set Perforated Clutches have that rocker but yet fashionable look to it and I love it. I also love that it’s not too big and I can use it on those days when I’m feeling lazy. I can put my essentials in it and still have an accessory that looks stylish. A big plus too is that it has a wrist strap so I can this bag in my hand or wrap it around my wrist and call it a day.
