What are you looking for this season...

Ok, HANDBAGS! Let's talk about this key accessory that has taken over me this past month or so. My life is literally in my bags, everyone asks "why is your bag so heavy?", I just came up with a response "because I have so much going on honey!". My bag must be able to handle all that goes inside of it and the madness outside as well, being shoved in my tiny locker at work every day. Key words are; functional, durable, and STYLE. It doesn't have to necessarily be a big designer name, those are great if you're willing and able to splurge but if you have a limit like myself remember that PRICE is important, but never be a cheap-o with it, you never want to sacrifice the 3 key words. Now, which style of handbag is your current fave? Wing sides like the TOD's bag are very popular right now, I love the color, just right for Spring and the Python emboss is so luxurious. How about the Zac by Zac Posen bag? $495 at Cusp...Navy is another hot color for Spring. I've always been a fan of a satchel, the one I currently own may be a bit small compared to the Marc by Marc Jacobs which is $498, again if you're a woman on the go you must be able to fit your life in your bag. I know these bags are up there in price so let's take a look at prices more reasonable. H and M has a stylish number with slight wing sides giving you a current trend and as much as I try to steer people away from black, black is very functional. When you're on the run you don't have time to change bags with every outfit. The one thing this H and M bag may lack is durability because of its imitation leather but you never know until you try it out, and for $24.95 you can't beat that. Lastly, this brand is one of my fav's and can be found in TJMaxx, Deux Lux. I'm all for the look of quality and luxury at an affordable price and both of my bags were only $39.99. They are extremely durable, functional, and oh so stylish. The prices online will differ obviously but $165 compared to $498, which one would you choose?
