I've never met a tortoise piece I didn't love. My fave of the collection is the "Hip To be Square" ring.

Get the look with the Giorgio Armani Eclipse Collection.

Your Fall Handbag For $250 Or Less


Happy to be back after a wonderful weekend in wine country! If you are like me, as Fall arrives you immediately think about new boots and bags. Like boots, designer bags have sky rocketed in price. Not every one has $1,000 to invest in a bag. So I set out to find good looking handbags that were haute in style but not in price. 



HERE: 15 Amazingly Affordable Handbags

KC Jagger Carrie
The "It" bag of the season is the Bucket Bag. This chic choice is available in six stylish shades, each adding the right pop of color to your outfit.  Leather for under $100, is pretty amazing.
Saks Off Fifth


IIIBecca By Joy Gryson
Don't be afraid of color! This Ultramarine blue plays well with so many other colors. Luxe leather now reduced by 59%. Such a nice value!
Bluefly


Legends Of The Fall Tote
Looking for the bag that will hold everything? This is the perfect bag to go from home to work to the gym or on the plane.
Free People


CXL By Christian Lacroix
A smart plaid with high shine hardware and designed by one of my favorite designers. All of the style without the high price tag.
Nordstrom


The Riley-3 Quilted Tote
Quilting always reminds me of Chanel. A leather designer bag this size would be way over $1,000. A great looking bag for the money.
Vince Camuto

Take 25% Off With Code: FRIENDS25 Ends 9/27

Waller Fringed Clutch
Here's a bag with a vintage vibe and a modern utility. Perfect bag for denim or almost anything.
Anthropologie


Furla Candy Mini Satchel
I have always loved these candy bags. A closer look shows that they are made of plastic and "clearly" chic. A fun take on the serious subject of handbags. Aubergine is new for the season and so on trend, since Marsala is the color of 2015.
Zappos Couture


I just love grey with almost any shade of beige. A very sophisticated color pairing. At Gigi New York, the only initials that count are your own.  The Tan Uber Clutch is one of my very fave clutches and it is less than $200. The grey convertible clutch is a tad over $250
Gigi New York


Rebecca Minkoff Leo Clutch
Love the zipper trimming on this chic and sleek clutch. You will love the less than $100 price.


Neiman Marcus Micro Stud Leather Tote
Add an edge to your everyday bag with the golden mini studs. Also available in black, but I find the hardware unexpected in the camel.


Mini M.A.C. Crossbody
A petite take on Rebecca's classic M.A.C. clutch, and it is roomier than it looks!



Alexa Crossbody
Designed by Barney's New York, this fringed bag is fun and a must have for Fall. Now 40% off and less than $100. Quite the buy!


Hare + Hart Mini Cross Body Clutch
Sporty and sophisticated at the same time. Wear it as a chic clutch or across your fave sweater or coat. Now 30% off. One of my favorites.


Furla Saffiano Leather Tote
Reduced by 56%, this bag is almost perfect in every way. Other colors available.


Larkin Red-Stripe Tote
Striped with style, this bag is all leather. Perfect size for the girl who loves to tote around everything. Ships for free from

Wedding Wednesday: Say Yes To A Dress With Sleeves!



Do you ever watch "Say Yes To The Dress?" I actually love the show and anything to do with weddings. If you watch, you may notice that rarely do you find a gown with sleeves. Am I the only person that wouldn't go sleeveless? Don't get me wrong, a sleeveless dress can be gorgeous, but they aren't for everyone. Even if you have fit and fabulous arms, these gowns just may convince you to cover up.

 

HERE:  15 Stunning Gowns With Sleeves

So beautiful in a blush of pink and the twinkle of rhinestones sprinkled everywhere.
