Large ''Brianna'' Bucket Bag - Black, Brown, Red, Orange or Off-White

It's a Good one


I bought this bag in the olive color, not offered now. I was very happy with the bag. It is very very roomy, carries my stuff beautifully. I'm used to name bags and I definitely see the difference here with the details. But for this price, it was very nice.

Oversized Multi-color ''Naomi'' Tote

Purse


This is a really great purse. It's quite large but it holds anything and everything you could possibly have to carry around. It's easy to hold and stays on your shoulder really well. The purse has a really nice, soft texture. I love the purse. The compartments inside are pretty great too.

Large Top Buckle Tote - Black, Brown or Red

Pleasantly surprised


I'm not really a "purse" person; most of my bags are cross-body/sling ones from American Eagle or Levis, but a career change had forced me to buy a more formal style kind-of-bag. After sorting the list by bestsellers, this had come up and I fell in love with the picture at first sight. I bought the brown color but I had no idea that there's a red one also. I will definitely buy one more after they stock up with the reds (as of right now, they are sold out! That's how popular they are, I guess). It's very soft and it has lots of compartments inside. I am impressed with the packaging. You could give this as a present and you could fool them into thinking that this is worth more than its $35 dollar price tag. Well, if I didn't pay for it myself, I would have been fooled. Like I said, I'm no purse-person.

Handbags: The Power of the Purse (Paperback)

This is a wonderful little book all about handbags....and it's small enough to slip into your bag! Full of gorgeous photos of all kinds of bags, from the funky, fun type to the serious office bag and from the beaded extravaganza to the functional tote. It also gives a brief history of bags as well as some background info on some of the top designers. Did you know for example that handbags were an item used only by men until the invention of pockets meant men no longer needed a bag? This is a book to delight any lover of handbags.
