Deal of the Day: Jalda Bean Clutch Was $475, Now $250

Jalda offers a variety of beautifully crafted and timeless handbags without being plastered in logos like a lot of other popular designer bags. Although I love my logo-carrying Marc Jacobs bags, I can also appreciate bags that don't necessarily have a widely recognizable name behind them. Smart shoppers know that you can only really carry the big logo bags when they are from the current season, but you can shamelessly carry a bag for years to come if it's not ridden with popular logos. For this reason, I've been lusting after several of the Jalda bags since they first came out. When I came across this Jalda Stingray Bean Clutch on sale, I feel in love with it even more! It was originally $475, but is now on sale for $250 at Luna Boston. The texture and shine of the exterior stingray leather is to die for, while the interior of the bag is fully lined with buttery suede. Absolutely gorgeous.

Day to Evening Metallic Clutch

I've been shopping around for new little clutch to go with my holiday party dresses....and I've only got about a week left to find the perfect one! I'm really in the market for a metallic evening clutch, but I want to find one I'd use after the holidays without having to worry about looking too glitzy. I've been obsessing over this clutch from Foley + Corrina because I know I could definitely dress it up enough for holiday parties or dress it down enough to wear with jeans. I love how the chain and crinkled metallic leather give it a little bit of a rocker glam vibe...

Yea Boyy

Boyy is a relatively new bag line that emerged in Spring 2006.  These bags are so stylish and unique with hidden pockets, and zippers, and detachable straps.  Each bag has incredible details that make it a piece of art.  I love this new line, What do you think?

All the Rage!

With the nautical look coming in with a lot of white and navy blue it only makes sense that accessories should stand out, and what a better color than red?  It goes perfect with navy and white and just adds that extra pop to the outfit.  I picked out some of my favorites this season :)

Currently Stalking: Kate Spade Cape Cod Maya Bag

So...it's become a daily ritual of mine to visit this bag online and debate. I'm die hard in love with it, but consider the price along with the fact that it's a canvas bag. Spending that on a leather bag that will last is one thing, but canvas? Granted, it's something really special that could definitely use for spring/summer...but I just don't know if I need it for that price. What do you ladies think?

Accessory Trend: White & Gold

I'm all for the metallic trend, but I think that accessories of solid gold or silver can be a little too flashy. I'd opt for a combination of white and gold instead because it still reflects the metallic trend, but it's little less over-the-top. My expensive taste definitely got the best of me with this post (sorry!), but I'm still obsessed with everything here....

MICHAEL by Michael Kors Straw Bags

These straw handbags from MICHAEL by Michael Kors are making it even harder to wait for spring for me! I'm definitely buying the little white clutch...but I'm a big fan of the large white tote as well. They're all casual, beachy, and preppy chic at the same time. They make me want to throw a block party and drink lemonade. Unfortunately, everything is still frozen here. Urgh.

Glamorous Metal Mesh Clutches

After watching the Oscars and seeing all of our favorite celebs all glammed up (although there were a good deal of celebs that hardly even tried), I decided to look into some glamorous little clutches and pouches myself! I love the whole reflective mirror trend for bags that's everywhere this spring, but it can get a little much.  As I was browsing, noticed a lot of metal mesh bags that were like a toned-down version of the reflective bag trend. These clutches seem like such an easy way to polish off your dark wash jeans and sexy little top for a night out with the girls without the risk of looking tacky.

My favorites are the first 2 with the geometric print. Cute, right? They actually aren't priced too harshly either.

I'm not entirely sure how I feel about that one with the floral bow. It's definitely something that I would admire on someone else, but not for me. What do you guys think?
