Designer Handbags

The only reason I will cut this bag some slack is because it is clearly a beach bag. I may sound totally hypocritical or just plain stupid, but I hate the look of plastic for a bag. Yes, I do sound stupid because I know this bag is a designated beach bag. Welcome the soon to come warm summer with some sun and the Juicy Couture ESG Beach Colony Tote. This bag just seems so cheap looking to me. Again, I know it is made with vinyl for a reason, but I don’t think this is the best beach bag I’ve seen. Although it is meant for the beach, there is grained leather trim with rolled shoulder straps which may get a bit tarnished with water getting on them. To add some color for the summer, the rainbow Juicy label is strategically placed on the front of the bag along with a palm tree leather cutout with crystal coconuts. I don’t know why, but I just can not get into this bag- beach bag or not. The part that I do like is the Love Surf Juicy cotton towel that is included. Who wouldn’t mind having a Juicy beach towel? Kinda cute. Overall this bag measures 15″ x 10″ x 6″. What do you think of it for a beach bag? Now available via eLuxury for $145.

For some reason I have been stuck on practical bags lately. Probably because I really do need one myself. I have bags that I love and they are big, small, medium, tall, but I don’t have a completely practical everyday bag. So let the everyday bags start rolling. The Theory Park Roll Leather Bag is made with pebbled leather with stud and buckle detail. Simplicity is found in the double top handle with an optional shoulder strap. This makes the bag versatile for carrying, which really is a plus if you are looking to use this as a messenger. This bag features a zip top closure, two magnetic snap pockets, an interior pocket, and canvas lining. I don’t find this bag anything out of the ordinary, but it looks durable and practical for everyday. Measuring 8Вј”H X 12Вј”L X 5″W, this bag may be big enough for your everyday bag to get some wear and tear. Buy it through Saks for $445.
