Alexander McQueen Sunshine Yellow Heroine Bag


It’s spring, almost the summer season, which means it’s time to retire those black and grey bags and add a pop of color to your outfit.

One of my favorites that just popped up in the sale section today over at Neiman Marcus, is the Alexander McQueen Heroine Bag dyed in a bright sunshine yellow – so electric! That and the sleek structured shape is amazing and will last the test of time.

Not only is this bag beautiful on the outside, but the inside as well. It’s what counts, right? The interior is functional and compartmentalized for your busy lifestyle. The center of the bag is divided into two compartments by a zip-closure pouch compartment. There’s also a few slip pockets which are always convenient for those little items that you want at your fingertips, like your cellphone, key or lipstick.

Flight 001 Go Clean Beach Set
Summer is almost here! I can hardly believe it, especially after this insanely cold spring. It is finally time for a little fun in the sun. So who is ready to hit the beach? I can see it now. Walking down the beach with sand between my toes as the surf splashes against my ankles. Ahhh! There is just one problem though. What to do with that wet swimsuit! And those sand-filled shoes! If you’re on a vacation somewhere, you certainly don’t want that stuff in your suitcase either. Well Flight 001 has a solution for that little problem! Introducing the Flight 001 Go Clean Beach Set!

Louis Vuitton Zephyr Trolley Luggage

Louis Vuitton Zephyr Trolley Luggage
I have the Louis Vuitton Azur Bandouliere Carry-on in my collection and when I purchased it a couple years back, it was my favorite go-to travel bag. However the last 8 months or so it’s been tucked away in its sleeper bag and only brought out on a few occasions.

A few months back I got the Crown Edition by Heys Luggage spinner, which is such a dream! It has become my essential when air-traveling. No carrying, dragging or pushing needed, it glides at your side with easy (be careful going down slanted walkways!) And if you’re like me and tend to stuff your carry-on travel bag to the max, luggage on wheels is totally the way to go. Nobody wants a sore back. That combined with jet-lag could put your vacation off on the wrong foot.

Juicy Couture Paradise Floral Dress. $178
Jeffrey Campbell Bond Girl Sandals. $185

Summer is practically here and it’s time to bring out all of our Summer gear. It’s a goal of mine to buy more dresses and skirts to wear this Summer. I think I wore jeans all Summer last year and I almost died. I live in Florida and my gosh is it hot here during the Summer so dresses are a must this year! With Summer clothing, I also think it’s great to have bags that are Summer appropriate! Any bag that is light and colorful always wins my vote and I have to say I’m kind of in love with the Juicy Couture “Emblazon” Shopper Tote. It’s perfect for the upcoming Summer season and I absolutely love the geometric cutouts. I even adore the rhinestone turn-lock closure because it gives the bag a glamorous look.

This is definitely the perfect bag to carry around during the Summer. It screams vacation, beach, pool and heat. I love that it can go with a wide range of outfits. I can see myself carrying it when I have a dress or romper on as well as a bikini with a cover up. It’s a perfect bag to have for the Summertime because it’s so versatile and I love it!

Z Spoke Zac Posen Claudette Tassel Clutch


Black & Gold. How do you feel about that trend? Wait… is it a trend? Black and gold together has been around for a long time. However, every time this trend resurfaces, it looks and feels brand new. I suppose the look is different enough that it just feels refreshing. Usually when you see black and gold together, it is black leather with gold hardware. Nice! But I stumbled across a very interesting looking piece.

It’s black and gold alright, just not in the way most people would envision it. Introducing the Z Spoke Zac Posen Claudette Tassel Clutch!

CC SKYE The Shredder Hobo

I have a personal shredder in my office at work that I use on a daily basis. It’s noisy, takes up valuable space, and overheats my office quite quickly. It never crossed my mind that someday an office shredder would be used as a tool to inspire a designer’s vision of a contemporary handbag. That vision became a reality to the fashion house of CC SKYE, meet the shredder hobo.
