… is horrible and the really high temperatures are making it quite annoying. It’s not very fun to go outside and have the leather on your handbags change color or crack. The best type of handbag to carry around during the Summer is a straw tote. They don’t have drastic color changes and the straw stays put for the most part. Even when it’s wet, the straw doesn’t change or get stains on it.

I absolutely adore Tory Burch right now and the “Basketweave” Straw Tote might be the …

It’s the season for straw bags, hats and clutches! Every Spring and Summer we always see straw accessories enter the fashion world. Just this weekend I saw the handbags all over department stores. Some I like, some I don’t but I will admit they are great for the beach or anything water related. I hate when leather gets wet because it usually stains. With straw bags you never have to worry about that because if it ever …

Cross body bags are so hot right now. No matter what store I go into I see them everywhere. I never use to like them but they are starting to stick to me. Oddly, I even like them with some color on me. If you read my blogs often, you would know I’m a black leather kind of girl. I love black handbags but for some reason I’m starting to welcome color into my life. Maybe I was just going through a black …

… with a lovely woman today, on why they are so amazing. A cross body bag is a great bag to own for those days when you just want to relax and not carry much around. They are perfect for holding just your essentials and nothing more. Whether you use it for the day, evening, travel etc., it really is a great addition to any handbag collection.

When I spotted the Tory Burch “Rachel” Cross Body Mini Bag I instantly fell in love. It was black, featured some gold and had a …

… were hot, which weren’t, the ones who drastically emerged and the ones who had the nerve to copy some other House’s original designs. When it comes to my favorite designer of 2011, my preference goes to the designs of someone who perhaps isn’t classified as being a Couture House and to one who carries accessories ranging in different styles, colors, price ranges and personalities.

If there is one trait that all Tory Burch accessories carry is attitude. Whether they’re …

Straw, already? Yep. Now is the time to start planning that warm weather wardrobe, book that spring vacation and give yourself something to look forward to. Throw in the Tory Burch Straw Turnlock Mini Bag and your agenda will be complete. This little darling is petite and boxy, which is just the right silhouette for straw in my opinion. Most larger straw bags veer into picnic basket territory, but this just looks quaint and …

I’m all about using designer pouches, cases, cosmetic bags, electronics sleeves, coin purses and wallets for stocking stuffers. Especially when they are as charming as this Tory Burch Tiny Jewelry/Cosmetic Case! This little treat would also be a great gift to give your girlfriends, or that hard to buy for teen on your list. For a really snazzy gift, use it as a box and hide a piece of jewelery inside for the recipient to find! It’s available in …

Consider 2011 the year I finally understood the great allure of Tory Burch. Her recent bags, shoes and even clothes have really appealed to me, in a way I never once felt before. The Charlie Shoulder Bag, right in time for fall, is a crisp, effortless design that makes the perfect complement to the season’s sober, dramatic hues. Despite its own palette of dark shades, it’s relatively uplifting and even kind of fun with its kaleidoscopic print. Find it for …

Tory Burch is currently one of my favorite designers. Anything the brand styles exudes sophistication and class. The brand also does an amazing job at pairing up black leather and gold hardware, which happens to be my favorite color combination when it comes to fashion.

At the moment, I’m absolutely loving the Tory Burch “Audra” Mini Bag. Before I even took a glimpse at it the name caught …
