The London Handbag Shopping Centre

Metallics and Shiny accessories seem to be everywhere these days. I literally can’t walk into a store without seeing metallic clothes (especially leggings), purses, wallets, and etc. I never liked the whole metallic “trend”, but I must say it’s really not that bad. If you know how to accessorize right and style yourself up so that you don’t look like one big Christmas ornament, you could pass as stylish and trendy.

I’m not a fan of Crossbody Bags at all, but when I can across the “Whiting & Davis Mesh Mini Crossbody Bag“, I was intrigued. It wasn’t hideous and the metallic colors really made the bag standout. You always see these ugly Crossbody Bags that look so bland and dull, and after seeing one in a variety of metallic colors it did look quite fashionable.

The bag comes in four different colors: black; bronze; gold; and silver. My favorite out of the four colors is gold. To me, the gold really stands out the most out of all the colors. If you do not want your purse to stick out like a sore thumb, then I would choose one of the other colors especially black. The metallic colors of this Crossbody Bag can be used in two different ways. The bag could style up a dull outfit, or make a metallic outfit look even more amazing.

Crossbody Bags aren’t meant to carry much of anything, but your essentials. The most you can fit into one is probably a compact, money, phone, and some other teeny tiny accessories.

The Whiting & Davis Mesh Mini Crossbody Bag, is a Nordstrom exclusive. In other words, no matter how hard you try you won’t be able to find this bag anywhere!

If you want one of these stylish beauties, you can purchase it at Nordstrom for $85. If you were look for a “shiny” bag, then this would be the perfect one to get. It’s priced great, and actually looks cute! This would be a great Crossbody Bag to add to any collection, especially if you are like myself and don’t even own one.

I’ve been obsessed with evening bags lately, and when I see one in “pink” my heart usually skips a beat. When I came across the Bourne Daisy Clutch, I was amazed of how reasonable the price was, and how beautiful it was.

The clutch comes in three different colors: black; nude; and taupe. For some reason, they call the “pink” version of the bag “nude.” I consider “nude” more of a beige or tan color, and this clutch is clearly pink.

It is probably more ideal to get this clutch in black, mostly because of the color. Black goes with everything, and pink and taupe don’t. I loved this bag in “pink” because the jewels featured on the front of the bag really stand out more so in pink than the other two colors. The jewels seem to be hidden with the darkness of the black and taupe colors.

I also love how this clutch comes with a chain. You can carry it as a clutch, or take out the chain and carry it as if it were a little shoulder bag. Either way you choose to use the bag, it would look stunning.

Obviously, this clutch would be perfect for some type of evening event. The jewels make this clutch look pretty expensive and not to mention fancy. I would never even think of wearing this clutch to the grocery store or mall, but to a fancy restaurant I would carry it in a heartbeat.

The Bourne Daisy Clutch can be purchased at Nordstrom for $135. I consider the price of this clutch to be a steal! Evening bags aren’t always on the “affordable” side, especially if they are gorgeous. With a clutch that is so cute and affordable who can go wrong? If you have an evening event to go to in the coming months, this clutch would be the perfect bag for you to take with you!

Gorgeous and Exclusively at Saks Fifth Avenue, the Dolce & Gabbana Miss Marylou Satchel is sure to be a bag that can not be missed. Shaped like a Louis Vuitton Speedy and being accented with quilted leather, this handbag is a pure beauty.

It does look exactly like the size of a Louis Vuitton Speedy 25, but of course Dolce & Gabbana had to put their own flare on their take of the iconic handbag. I love everything about this bad from the double zipper closure to the nylon animal print lining in the interior of the handbag.

There is one feature of the handbag that I do not understand, and that is the golden hardware on the exterior of the bag. It makes it look like some sort of clasp could of been put on and taken off from it, but the handbag comes with no straps or anything. It makes it look like a ring on the front of the bag, that is used for nothing.

I would love to add this handbag to my collection, but I fear that I wouldn’t carry it much. The handbag is stunning, but with the style and quilted leather, it makes the handbag look very much like a Fall/Winter handbag. If you live in a state that has cold weather for a majority of the year, the quilted bag would probably go great with your “cold weather” attire.

You can pre-order the Dolce & Gabbana Miss Marylou Satchel at Saks Fifth Avenue for $1,295, which I think is a great price for this gorgeous handbag.
