This probably won’t make me happy with my vegan fans - but I’ve got a confession to make…
One of my favorite smells in the world is leather.

I was just recently introduced to Kling Handbags, designed by Natasha Kimling Kwan. Her funky clutch purses and mini-clutches are made from human-friendly polyurethane (which also means the bags are vegan as well).
Check out her bags and I think you’ll agree that you don’t need leather to build a fantastic bag!
The mini “Mod in […]

I can’t resist this whimsical leather purse from Gilli:
It’s got a rubber ducky on it!

Okay ladies, I need your opinion on this bag from Moschino:

No, you can’t call me Betsey - that’s the name of this whimsical handbag from Betsey Johnson!
It’s not the handbag for a dressy dinner out, or for a night at the opera - but at only $65 it’s a reasonable price for a fun purse that’s perfect for showing your sense of humor :-)

Do you need a break from the intense colors of summer? Too much bold yellow and bright turquoise? How about trying some summer whites? Soft, elegant and very wearable when the mercury starts to climb…

I was just recently introduced to “One Starry Nite“, a company started by a female Marine, who was inspired to help during two tours in Iraq. She began working with women in Afghanistan, Indonesia, China and other nations to empower themselves by creating high-quality work like this lovely large “Flower Drum” tote:
