… you weren’t discussing Anna Karenina on Tuesday nights. Well, I’ll let you in on a secret. My Book Club Only Reads Wine Labels, too. Don’t get our little club wrong — we like love books, but wine brings on the relaxation, and isn’t that what a book club is really supposed to be all about? Something like that. Available at Not On The High Street for $10.

As one of my favorite shoe labels, Pour la Victoire never fails to entice me with their gorgeous footwear. So I was slightly disappointed by their Pissa Tote. Don’t get me wrong – it’s nice, but “nice” has never been worth $395 in my book. The striped look is always trendy, of course, but there are just so many other (and more affordable) ways to work it into your wardrobe. I’d rather put my …

The yacht club gets the op art treatment on the Nine West One Stop Shopper Large Tote. Normally, an aggressively nautical bag like this might feel a little tired, but the optical detail and especially bright blue make this traditional purse a little more exciting, and the inclusion of a cute clear striped cosmetic bag doesn’t hurt! It’s $79 at Piperlime.

… beloved Legacy Stripe just in time for summer! This year, the palette on the Weekend Stripe Medium Tote is brilliant – a cheerful array of rainbow-bright hues just made for pairing with chic white eyelet dresses, Lilly Pulitzer pastels and so much more. No matter what you wear it with, though, count on it to capture some attention all on its own. The pattern is so uplifting that you can’t help but smile, and it’s got a bit of a country club-meets-tropical-island versatility about it. You …

When I was in school, I was one of those women that hated carrying around a bulky book bag and I always dressed nice. You better believe it, heels were a must everyday. I remember walking from the library to my class one day and someone shouted out, “Hey Pantene girl, it’s college not a fashion show”. It was mean but I shrugged it off since the person saying this was wearing pajamas to school. Pajamas, really? I wouldn’t be caught dead arriving to college in pajamas …

… can’t help but notice a certain monotony in some of her work. Take her Monogrammed Cotton-Canvas Tote, for example. My distaste for obvious logos aside, I can’t possibly support a bag that is made of canvas, trimmed with faux leather and finished with a price tag that reads $1085. You must be kidding me. Available at Net-a-Porter.

The red version of Diane von Furstenberg’s Laragh Tote reminds me of yachting flags. Does that make it a little bougie? Maybe. But its casual style works in its favor; carried with a pair of boyfriend jeans and an oversized sweater, it becomes more reluctant yuppie than members only club. Whatever your style, its a pretty classic bag that will last you through many seasons. Even better, it’s on clearance at Shopbop for $129.50.

… 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 cutest straw tote I’ve seen in a while. What I love most about the “Basketweave” Tote is that it features different colors. This gives …

… Deux Lux. Once again they’ve managed to work magic, this time with the Lucky Reversible Sequin Tote, which shows off a beautiful coat of sequins on one side. Turn it inside out if you prefer less glitz and you’ve got yourself a fairly polished looking faux leather tote. The oversized bow detail is a chic detail that feels playfully cute, but could be removed if you’re headed to the office. Available for $106 at Nordstrom.
