This week, I thought we’d talk about handbags. The morning posts will feature the totes, satchels, and clutches that complete the majority of my outfits. And every bag will cost under-$100.
Tumbled Leather Braided Satchel ($75)
A cognac tote is my casual, weekend, and vacation staple. The cognac goes with nearly every color palette. And I love the sculpted shape of this tote and the braided handles; it takes the casual bag and lifts it a notch.
Looking for a slouchier tote? This Torrid bag is a great place to start. Old Navy offers a relaxed tote for $22 that’s worth a look. I also like this zippered tote from Neiman Marcus for a little extra flare.
Prefer a satchel? I like the angular lines on this Steve Madden satchel and this Emperia Rikki Tote is a nice mix of tote and satchel.

Yay handbags! Looking forward to your under-$100 options.
And if you want to take a morning this week and talk about investment bags that can carry a laptop, lunch, and an extra pair of shoes, keep out prying hands on the metro, and still look professional and up-to-date, I’d love it. I have a Lo&Sons and it works fine, but I really wish there was a quality leather equivalent out there. (Oh Everlane, please make a bag that closes on top.)

I have the Minkoff Knocked Up bag. You can find them on eBay or on her website. Also, the Lodis Audrey Brera bag.

Check out the fun and colourful line from Dreams in Colour for more bags under $100 (planning a beach getaway in the winter, then you need one of these!)

Shop great emerging designers from all around the world in one place. Wear something unique with a great story, from places like Uruguay, LA, NY, Sweden, Spain, Dubai and India.

I just bought the tumbled leather braided satchel and it was only $45 with some kind of extended Cyber Monday sale!

This is kind of random, and it may be only me, but I tend to click on photos thinking they’ll link to content. Yours only link to the attachment page. It might be more user-friendly to either turn off the linking or link to the content.
Just a suggestion!
