I had to share this video I found on Yahoo! (click on thumbnail picture above or link below) which epitomizes how I feel about style and what I practice myself. As long as it fits right/looks good - then it doesn’t matter how much it costs, $5 or $500 (well…that upper limit is totally up to your discretion ;)) I’ve probably gotten just as many compliments on my dirt cheap sale bags/clothes as I have for all the ones that I’ve been like “ugh..I love it, but can I afford it?” about.  If anything I’m more willing to buy fun/risky/edgy things when they are bargains, because I know if I end up regretting it - so what? It was only a few $ rather than $$$$.

e.g. I match a pricey BCBG knit dress (that I actually removed the sleeves from), with a pair of pleather slouchy boots I picked up in Munich for <$50, with a Target jacket I got for around $30, all finished off with my lovely brown Longchamp Le Pliage tote. If you wear it well and are confident, no one will care or be able to tell.

Welcome back from the Thanksgiving break. Hope everyone is enjoying their first day back to work, to school..to..eating normal portion sizes of food..again.  Ok, so I’m not sure about ya’ll..but I usually buy gifts in the under $100 dollar range. So..if you’re like me, you’ll enjoy the next few posts where I show you a few bags that will be perfect as gifts and hopefully well within your price range.

To start things off, all of us need a dark clutch to carry around. It’s one of those staple items..just like having black pumps and a white t-shirt.  Now, for your funky friend who likes to go a bit off the grid, the Harveys Seatbelt wristlet it perfect.  The Seatbelt wristlet is literally made of interwoven seatbelts and is funky, classic, and chic at the same time. Plus it’s ridiculously durable and includes the ever elusive compact mirror.

Get it: Harvey’s ‘Seatbelt’ Wristlet
