Ask Belle: Simple Satchels and Totes

Oct 20, 2015

Dear Belle,

My go-to purse is four years old and falling apart.  I would like to replace it with a nicer tote or satchel.  I’m looking ideally for a black bag, but I’m also open to another color.  My budget is about $300 and I need that to give me an all-around bag that isn’t too big.

I always like the inexpensive bags you post but I want something that will last.  I appreciate you taking the time.  AC

    Check 6pm.com for designer and non designer as well — they have good prices.

    Neiman Marcus Last Call is a great resource for purses, too. If you’re willing to cull through the junk (using the price and brand restrictions can help there), I’ve found some real gems for not much at all.

The Beauty Edit: An Under-Eye Concealer That Actually Works

My dark under eye circles have been the bane of my existence since I was 12. Is the cause lack of sleep? Dehydration? Sinus issues? Stress? Who the hell knows. But there they are, every day, telling the world that I am an exhausted working Mom.

Saw It On Social: The Battle of the Spendy Swimsuits

Sloane loves the pool. She jumps from the deck into the water with a crash, never considering her own safety, only to emerge on the surface, shouting “Again!” The pool is my daughter’s happy place. But no place where I need to wear a swimsuit in public is a happy one for me.

The Mondays: July 22, 2024

The Crowdstrike/Microsoft Meltdown forced me to take a few days off this weekend. No laptop. No billable hours. So we packed Sloane up for a visit to a local llama farm, stopped by the pool, went for coffee, etc. Few things are as funny as watching a 23-month old feed carrots to a ravenous rescue […]
