As often as we try and scour the internet and department store universe to find the best and most unique handbags out there, I really like when I come across a bag that is simple, streamlined and well executed. I know there will be plenty of you who think this bag is far too boring, but sometimes it is nice to have a bag that does its job, looks great and doesn’t send your bank account into a downward spiral.

Even though they seem to have been on hiatus for a little while, convertible bags still pretty much rock my world. And even though I’m usually one for patterned, slouchy bags, this Alexis Hudson Bijou Shoulder Bag is a perfect choice for those times when a sleeker bag is needed. Plus, the champagne color all but ensures an air of fancy sophistication.
Ohhhh, this bag is shinny. I’ve already begun thinking about what I might do for New Years Eve and when I start thinking about that, I can’t help but start thinking about what I am going to be carrying. I have no problem picking out the clutch first and worrying about the outfit afterward. The DKNY Fold-Over Metallic Clutch is a great option for a New Years Eve clutch which could be carried as an evening bag for so many other occasions.

Interesting, this is a very interesting bag. I am trying to figure out if I like this Kooba or if it misses the mark. So, I am going to break down the bag and try to figure out if I like this bag or not. No matter what, I have to admit the Kooba Isabella Saddle Bag boasts detailing that you don’t see every day.

I can’t help it; I’ve been itching to write about this Rebecca Minkoff Mini Mini Bag ever since I saw it on the Rebecca Minkoff Flash Sale. Now I’ve just been staring at it on 
Now lookie at what we have here. Hmmm. There is something that I kind of like about it but I can’t quite put my finger on. Well, first of all, I have yet to own a red handbag. I realize I probably should at least have a red clutch, but that isn’t the case. I am trying to diversify my handbag collection and I am pretty sure a red handbag is much needed. So will a 
Hmmm, hot pink. What do you think of a hot pink handbag? Personally, I’m not a fan of hot pink on huge bags, but on smaller bags, sure why not?! It is always nice to add a bit of flash and spice to an outfit. The Rebecca Minkoff Exclusive 3-Zip Morning After Clutch is the kind of hot pink bag I am sure I would be able to rock. I am not exactly sure which outfit I would carry it with, but you better believe any black or gray outfit would be fabulous!
