Beach bag lady

If you are anything like us, you have a bag for every little thing. We can't help it! So many bags and so little time. And with summer on the way, a good beach bag is calling our name. And a little shopping never hurt anyone so...

Oh my goodness. This first bag... it's so cute!! You can't deny it. It's those darn pom poms. Topshop has got it going on, that's for sure! We love the color combo. Sophisticated with a pop of summery yellow. And those long handles get a thumbs-up from us!

We're just feeling the stripes, what can we say? It's a great summer trend. But this Madewell bag has so much more going on than just stripes. We are digging those tassels! And this bag is a great size too. It will fit all your beach essentials. Win win!

How do you feel about carrying a piece of art around on your shoulder? Are you into it? Well here you go! This bag is a real beauty. Oh, it's just lovely. We love all of those little details. Could this be the perfect beach bag? Could be!!

Time to refresh!

Is your wardrobe feeling a little stale? Yeah, ours too. We're just bored! And most of us don't have the cash to buy a new wardrobe every few months. We sure don't. So here are some pieces that will be to sure to spice up you life. Oh and did we mention they are all under 100 dollars? Ca-ching!

New bag? Yeah, you need a new bag! You can never have too many, right? We're thinking backpacks for fall. Students shouldn't get to have all the fun! Our pick is the green bag by ASOS. It has a unique look to it. And those big pockets on the front? We adore them! 

And clearly you need some fall sunglasses. Once again, you can never have too many! And year-round protection for you eyes? Yeah, it's a beautiful thing. Would you believe that you can get a pair of designer glasses for less than 100 dollars? Believe it! These Kate Spade sunnies are right in your budget. And that great jade color? Love it! So unique. 

The time has come to turn in your sun hats and fedoras. Only for a couple months! Nothing to get too upset over. Here, how about a trade? Try this Whistles felt fedora on for size. We think it's increadibly stylish. Great for that polished look! These hats are going to be hot this fall. Get ahead on this trend! And for a great price too! 

You are worth it!

It's that time of the year! I'm sure the holiday party invitations and Facebook invites are rolling in. And what are you going to wear for all the festivities? Maybe you have a dress or two. But what about a clutch or an evening bag? You nearly forgot! Here's a tip. Accessorize with gold this season. It's such a beautiful look! Check out some of our favorites.

Heading to a formal event? Bring on the glitz and glitter! Bring out all the stops with this sparkly gold bag. This bag is going to look gorgeous against your black or red dress. What a contrast! It's a great way to look festive without the tacky sweater or Christmas lights necklace.

So maybe full glitter isn't your thing? Don't you worry! Check out this bag with beautiful laser cut pattern bag. The combination of the satin underlay with the subtly sparkling pattern overlay. It's really something different. This gold bag would look great with a royal blue or emerald dress.

We hope we have inspired your party wear for this season. Go for the gold!

Dress up your tech!

Fashion and style can translate over to your gadgets too! I mean who doesn't want to dress up their tech accessories in colors and patterns? White and black can be so boring! Check out some of our favorites!

There is nothing worse that having you phone die! Well, there are worse things... But you just can't have that. A portable external battery is essential these days. You don't want to miss a tweet or text! Check out these amazing clutch style batteries by Jonathan Adler. They are so sleek and bright! And covered in wonderful Jonathan Adler prints? What is not to love?!

Do you have an ipad or tablet? Then, you know how important a cover is! You have to keep it safe. And why not look cute at the same time? We love the DODOcase! How neat! They have such a classy, elegant look. They are on our must have list!

Tablet bags can be so... plain. Sure they are protecting that precious cargo but they bore us! Tote that technology in high fashion! Yes, this adorable satchel is meant for your ipad or tablet. Sacrifice style no more. We think tablets and tassels go hand in hand.

We hope you enjoyed this fun Friday blog! And hey, maybe your tech need an upgrade. And it the perfect time of year to buy in twos. One for you and one for another technology loving friend or loved one! Christmas is on it's way!

Beach essentials!

Chances are you're going to be hitting the beach soon! You might have a bathing suit and towel but there are plenty of other things that you're going to need. We found Elle's 32 beach essentials very handy and wanted to share the highlights with you.

A cover-up is a must have for the beach. They protect you from the sun and add even more style to your beach ensemble. We love this vibrant cover-up from Mara Hoffman. It's flowy and has a nice beachy feel. It's going to be really easy to pack and throw on. Pair it with a black or white suit to really let the colors pop!

You're going to need something to hold all that beach stuff in! It's good to have a separate bag out on the beach. you'll need to carry much more and things are going to get sandy! We love this canvas bag from Mango. It's a backpack style so it's going to be easier to carry. And the nautical feel is so cute! It's perfect for the beach!

And of course, you need a hat! You need that extra protection from the sun. There are so many styles out there. But we're pretty classic at heart. We love this big, floppy sun hat from Topshop! The stripes on this hat add some really fun flair to this hat. It's a must have!

What are your beach essentials? What are your favorites? Share them with us! See you out on the beach!!
