Wallet Style of the Stars

What’s one of the most essential items for keeping your purse organized?

A wallet of course!

But why settle for a drab, dull wallet when you can have one just as fabulous and stylish as your handbag? I know I take my notes from the stars - when they’re spotted with their wallets, they’re always fashionable!

Take Emma Roberts with this fun bright green wallet/change purse. It’s perfect for springtime! Go for your favorite bold color in our Brynn Croc Wallet.

Like the faux skin look? Apparently Rihanna does too:

She was spotted out shopping recently with this fancy looking brown wallet. It looks an awful lot like our Jamison Wallet!

Even if you don’t pair it with the blindingly bright red hair and equally bright pink hat, you’ll still be at the forefront of fashion with this faux croc wallet!

Some forgo the wallet and use a small purse to carry the necessities like Lauren Conrad…

In this cute spread from “Teen Vogue,” Lauren’s got an adorable small bag. We’ve got one too:

Embellishments are the perfect way to add a bit of sparkle and pizazz to your wallet. Sling the Drew Studded Wristlet on your arm, hop on your bike and you’ll be off for a stylish spring ride like Lauren!

Kaley Cuoco Hops to the Big Screen

Kaley Cuoco, an up-and-coming actress in Hollywood, is known for her roles on the hit television shows “8 Simple Rules” and “The Big Bang Theory.” While “8 Simple Rules” is no longer in production, I’m sure you have seen “The Big Bang Theory,” in which she plays Penny, a waitress who lives next door to a of couple geeky geniuses. Her character helps bring common sense and social skills to the intellectual geeks, which often results in hilarious and outrageous moments!

Kaley’s acting skills, however, are not only limited to TV shows. The young actress is starring in the new movie “Hop.”

The movie, which hits theaters April 1, uses state-of-the-art animation to tell the story about how one man, James Marsden, accidently stumbles upon the Easter Bunny’s teenage son, voiced by Russel Brand. There is also a hilarious scene in which Kaley mistakes the bunny for a cute stuffed animal. I know I’ll be heading to theater to watch it. Check out the trailer of Hop the movie!

Besides being a popular actress, Kaley is fashionable actress! From high profile events to a day on the town, she definitely knows how to stay trendy. In the photo below, she is snapped wearing a long black coat, very high heels and an oversized brown bag.

For a similar style, check out the Leeann Oversized Tote! Embellished in silver hardware with buckle detailing, this bag will spice up any outfit you wear. Plus this extra large bag will be able to carry nearly anything you pile into it!

While Kaley is hopping over to the big screen in her newest role, her fashion remains stylish. Will you be heading to theaters to watch her new film?

Predicting What’s Hot: Laver’s Law of Fashion

Ever wish you could predict what fashion trends will be hot next year? Fashion historian James Laver developed a theory that said fashion moves in predictable cycles - what we consider “indecent” now will be hot in ten years, but in twenty, we’ll think it’s “ridiculous.”

This infographic explains Laver’s theories and also gives predictions for what will be fashionable in the years to come. What do you think? Will 2010′s military trend be hideous in 2020? Will gothic be considered romantic in 2030? Check it out and make sure you let us know your take in the comments! :)

Handbag Shopping Guide: Weddings

Wedding season is here! Lots of brides are busily putting the last touches on their plans for the perfect day, and plenty of us, if we aren’t the bride herself, get to look forward to being a bridesmaid or guest!

Maybe “handbag” isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when you think wedding, but it can actually be an important part of the day! If you’re a guest, while you’re looking for a cute dress to wear (of course any color except white - that’s just for the bride!), you should also be looking for a cute clutch or purse for your camera, tissues, and a scrap of paper and pen - to jot down the number of that cute cousin-of-the-groom across the table!

Sometimes the best clutch inspiration can come from the stars. Here Emma Roberts and Emmy Rossum strut their stuff with adorable black clutches.

Emma’s clutch has a unique, oversized butterfly element. A big accent on a black clutch can really make the purse, like with our Tabitha Bow Convertible Clutch:

This bag would really be perfect for any occasion, from a graduation, to a party, to a wedding…maybe even for the bride at her rehearsal dinner!

Speaking of the bride, a cute tote bag or purse is an absolute wedding day essential - to store all those emergency supplies: the hair pins, snacks, a penny for your shoe, something borrowed, something blue - you know what I mean! Plus you can work in your favorite bright color or pattern, or just another pretty detail into the day with a nice handbag.

It can be fun and casual or elegant and formal, whatever style you prefer. Two good but very different options for this purpose are the polka dot tote or the posey mini shoulder bag:

And (hint hint) these can make great bridesmaid gifts too!

So whether you’ll be the one walking down the aisle this summer or just one of the girls hoping to catch the bouquet when it’s tossed, happy wedding handbag shopping!

Farewell Elizabeth Taylor

Elizabeth Taylor, Hollywood and fashion icon, died today at the age of 79. However, her impact on style and glamour will remain.

Elizabeth Taylor, fashion icon

Elizabeth Taylor is one of the few Hollywood stars who has remained an icon throughout the decades. Her fame started at the early age of 12 and followed her through adulthood. She’s been in over 100 films, been nominated for 3 Academy Awards (Raintree Country, Cat On a Hot Tin Roof, and Suddenly Last Summer), and won 2 Oscars (Butterfield 8 and Who’s Afraid of Virginia Wolf). After starring in Cleopatra, she was also the first actress to earn $1 million. Her career has been full and successful.

Outside of her Hollywood career, she became somewhat notorious for her 8 marriages and 7 divorces, plus time in rehab. Aside from acting, Elizabeth Taylor was an AIDS activist and a close friend of Michael Jackson (she is even godmother to two of his children, Paris and Prince Michael). She also was appointed Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empir, and has multiple perfume and jewelry lines.

Her dark hair and eyes in contrast to her fair skin helped catapult her to fame, and her beauty will remain iconic forever. What do you know her best for?

Ashley Olsen’s Red Handbag Saves the Day.

I will never forget watching “Full House” or popular MK and Ashley movies like “Holiday In the Sun,” “New York Minute” or the “You’re Invited” musical movie series. I watched “The Case of the Seaworld Adventure” over and over at least a hundred times.

Then in 2007, at age 16 I continued my obsession with the twins and began shopping their preppy Walmart clothing line.

Now, nearly 4 years later, the twin starlets are still filming movies, with Mary Kate in “Beastly” just this month. Along with their acting career, the twins also own several fashion lines and are continuing their fashion endeavors… or are they?

Ashley Olsen was recently spotted walking the streets of L.A. in a unique outfit. (Let’s just say the outfit isn’t something I would be caught wearing.) With all of the money the Olsens have, many find it strange the multi-billion dollar twins wear such bizarre outfits. What do you think about the outfit? Despite Ashley’s odd clothing choice (in my opinion), her red handbag was able to save the day!

The Sami Quilted Handbag can save your day too!

With its ruby red color, this handbag is able to make any outfit look good! The brass accents against the deep red add the perfect touch. The handbag can be worn with or without the brass antique chain. If you’re looking for an accessory to save your outfit woes, this bag is more than capable!

Celebrity Mother-Daughter Designer Handbags

I hope you guys are ready for some adorable pics of Hollywood kids, because we’ve got your celebrity cuteness for today covered:

Celeb mommy-daughter outings are always fun to see! Here Katie Holmes and little Suri are hitting the shops, and it looks like they both found something that caught their eye! Shopping trips with a superstar mom must be fun, but I bet they’re even more fun when you get to match…

Gorgeous mom. Adorable daughter. Matching designer handbags. Could this pic get any more cute? Angelina Jolie and daughter Zahara carry matching Valentino handbags on an outing in New York City. Little girls love to match their moms, but imagine how much fun it must be for the daughter of a superstar who gets her own designer purse!

Not only is it Valentino, but it’s super stylish! White purses for warm weather are just so summery and fresh and fabulous. You know winter’s over when you’re carrying white on your arm - and it’s not on the ground all around you!

If you’re looking for a fresh, fashionable purse like Angelina’s and Zahara’s, check out our selection of white handbags. The broad ripple satchel is a great match.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t come in a tiny size for four-year olds! ;)

We’re on Oprah!

The April edition of “O Magazine” features our lovely Nola Top Handle Bag in their collection of “Vibrant Spring Staples for under $100″! This bag adds a touch of elegance and class to any ensemble, and we’re thrilled that the team at O Mag noticed.

At $54.95, this bag is quite the deal. It comes in multiple colors, but the mustard-tan version pictured here gives the bag a classic, Ralph Lauren-esque feel. The buckle accents and turn-lock closures give a sophisticated flare to this lady-like bag. No one will ever know you spent under $100, let alone under $75, on this bag with a high-end appeal. You can carry it on the crook of your arm or attach the long strap to wear over your shoulder. You’re safe from a fashion no-no, knowing it’s Oprah approved any way you wear it.

It’s perfect for any season and pairs nicely with jeans and boots or a simple wrap dress. Have your girlfriends guess how much this bag costs and then shock them with the bargain price, or play it dirty and pretend it really costs about $275. We won’t tell.

This Spring, Take a Walk on the Wild Side

Spring is fast approaching and with it comes warmer temperatures and new styles! As you trade in your heavy winter clothes for new, light clothes, don’t forget the most important part: A trendy handbag can be the perfect complement to any outfit, but an animal print handbag can add a wild edge to your style.

A leopard print handbag offers an untamed feel, yet still gives a classy look. Many celebrities in Tinsel Town, such as Katherine Heigl, Sofia Vergara and Jessica Simpson, wear leopard print bags in order to spice up darkly colored outfits.

The Kira Leopard Hobo is a sleek and chic bag that is accented with black and silver embellishments. This animal print handbag can easily be carried over the shoulder to add pizzazz to your outfit!

If a leopard print does not call to your inner wildness, then perhaps a giraffe print can fix that. The versatile Giraffe Print Pleated Satchel offers a giraffe look with a twist. The creamy white exterior is complemented with purple, red and blue spots to give this bag a particularly unique look. It is available in a brown (as pictured) or a red leatherette trim, to make this bag even wilder.

But, wait! What if you are looking for an animal print clutch instead of a bag? Well don’t worry, we have you covered in that department as well. Check out the unique Zebra Print Clutch! The glossy patent leatherette exterior, accented with silver hardware, will give you a sense of wildness at any time of the day. Kate Moss excellently demonstrates how an animal print clutch can add a dash of spice to an evening outfit!

With spring upon us, it is time to switch out your clothing and bring in some wild handbags!
