Ok - I know many of you are very much over Fendi and honestly, for good reasons. I am usually less than impressed when I see most Fendi bags. I guess for the majority of the time I feel the bags are overpriced (the Fendi Beaded Baguette Bag comes to mind) and overhyped. However, agree [...]

Do any of you remember when “trolls”were all the rage? I would guess this was about 15 years ago or so, but needless to say, almost every girl I knew had their own troll collection. Trolls are little plastic dolls with bright fluffy hair and a gem for a belly button. Megs and I [...]

Rebecca Minkoff Nikki Hobo Handbag
Recently, the Rebecca Minkoff Nikki Hobo has been spotted on the arms of many celebrities. This includes Vanessa Minnillo, who was photographed some time ago with this handbag in yellow. Personally, I find the Rebecca Minkoff Nikki Hobo to be quite attractive. The slouchy style is just perfect for everyday use. Plus I think the clips on the sides add a unique finishing touch. But there is something that I dislike about this handbag — its size! The Nikki Hobo is just enormous. And personally, I prefer a smaller handbag. But there is good news (at least for me anyway). Yep, you guessed it! The Rebecca Minkoff Nikki Hobo is now available in mini size! And if you know anything about Rebecca Minkoff, it’s that her “mini” styles aren’t exactly mini. Instead, they end up being just the right size! Don’t believe me? Just compare Vanessa’s bag with the Mini Nikki Hobo pictured on the right. See… it’s just the right size, isn’t it?

The Rebecca Minkoff Mini Nikki Hobo measures 15″ x 12″ x 3.5″. It is currently available in Navy Luxe, Forest, Deep Red, Double Cream, Dark Brown, and Noir. It retails for $575.

GAP Leather Satchel Handbag
I think every Bagista is a fan of the convertible bag, well, at least I am. What’s not to love about those handbag-by-day, large-clutch-by-night pieces? As we all know a numerous amount of designers have released their own versions of the style, including Foley & Corinna, Miu Miu and Coach. Look who else is following the trend, the great American brand GAP has released yet another version of the fold over bag. It’s leather, vintage-y, and cute. I like how its look is clean and not busy, making it suitable for the office or to dress down. Roomy interior slots and one large exterior pocket can also be found on this satchel. In regards to the leather body, I can’t really say much about its durability since I’ve never owned a leather Gap bag, but its texture does look decent. If your willing to try the style, but splurging on a designer piece isn’t an option, why not give Gap’s version a chance? You can find this bag with a decent price tag of $150 in Brown or True Black. Ladies, what’s your input on this bag? Do any of you Bagista’s own a leather Gap bag?
