‘I do not have a blog’ Tote Bag



I am a blogger. Yet when people ask me if I blog, I kind of nod my head because I truly consider what Vlad and I do more of webmastering than blogging. But Wikipedia says that a blog is a “type of website where entries are made (such as in a journal or diary), displayed in a reverse chronological order”. Ok, so I blog. And I chuckle while I say this because the name of my website is Purse Blog- that should be a dead giveaway that I am a blogger. Yet many people are raging against the mainstream technology world of blogging. Go on and rage with a bag that shows you will defy the world of blogging with a bag that makes the statement. The ‘I do not have a blog’ Tote Bag combines 100% cotton canvas with a 22″ reinforced self-fabric handles and the phrase of those who are going against the norm of the blogging world on the front. Hey, more power to you if you do not blog or know someone who truly cringes at the thought of blogging. Easy to care, this bag is machine washable and measures 15″ x 18″ x 6″. While it is not the hottest handbag out there, it is a great gift (gag gift even) for a mere $17.99 via Cafe Press.

Marc by Marc Jacobs Slouchy Patent Large Surely Shopper


It is long weekend time which typically means sales are imminent. I have to let you in on a bad habit of mine. I do not sale shop. When the sales come, I run for cover. I just do not like so many people around me going crazy to get the best deal. It may be a slight case of claustrophobia but it is also a slight case of financial pain to my wallet. But, what can you do? So the days that the sales come, I wander the aisles of online shopping. This is where I find my peace.

If you all remember, Vlad posted earlier that big bags are the must have accessory for fall. Seriously, he was not kidding. The Marc by Marc Jacobs Slouchy Patent Large Surely Shopper could double over as a human carrier with its larger than life dimensions: 17″L x 5″W x 20″H. Mary Kate is known for her big bag style, but with her small frame I can only see her using this bag as a potato sack racer. The patent leather body and extra-large size combine with short double straps and a front buckle to make a bag that is super trendy and hard to pull off. Open this bag up to its bottomless put with a 6″ zipper pocket and 2 accessory pockets. Tell me what you are thinking about this trend for fall. Hop on the big bag wagon for $478 through Shop Bop.

Edit: It seems that Luxist and I are on the same page today
