The London Handbag Shopping Centre

Some nights when I decide my working day is over, I end of browsing online etailers. And then I get shopping. I don’t even realize what I am doing, but with a few clicks all of a sudden, days later, I have 3 packages waiting for me. That happened last night. Postman arrived at our door with 5 packages. WHAT? Vlad found his way to Newegg.com for computer products and I found my way to ShopBop, Tobi, and Victoria’s Secret. Always a treat to forget what you ordered.

Anyhow, ShopBop has an amazing deal going on right now. You can buy any handbag and receive 25% off when you enter ARMCANDY at checkout. Check out the bags we would opt for! Ends tonight at 11:59 p.m..

One of our favorite designers has her sample sales coming up in the next few weeks. Kicking off the Sample Sale in New York City, Rebecca Minkoff will have a exclusive Cinco de Mayo MAB and Margaritas party for tPFers. Yours truly, Vlad and I, will be attending as well! Sample sale madness begins and we would love to see you at the RM Sample sale the night before it is open to the public. We hope to see you there!

Over at online sample sale site Gilt Groupe they’re featuring English fashion designer Alexander McQueen from now until May 1st at deal-breaking prices. Or until everything sells out, which may be soon. Especially the accessories.

There you’ll find handbags, amazing shoes, belts, skull scarves, dresses, jackets, pants and more for up to 70% off!

Items are going fast so you better hurry!!

Mother’s Day is right around the corner. While you might be planning a huge gathering which includes all the mother’s in your family or you are working on finding the right card and/or gift to send to your mom. Each year, I end up doing something a little different. Years past, I’ve flown into town and surprised her and other years I’ve sent a card with a Starbucks gift card (her daily must-have). This year, I am toying with the idea of getting her a new handbag.

The Salvatore Ferragamo Leather Evening Bag is a great contender for an ultra-fabulous Mother’s Day gift. The soft textured leather it topped with a bow trim on the chain strap. The lavender colored leather pictured here definitely hits that Mother’s Day/Spring Time feel. However, if you don’t want to seem too limiting, go for the black leather and let mom look fashionable with several outfits throughout all seasons. Buy through Saks for $520.
