Handbag Heaven at Fashion’s Night Out!

We rounded up the gals after work for a quick jaunt to Saks Fifth Avenue for a special presentation of fall trends and the chance to meet other fashion lovers in Indianapolis! When Fashion’s Night Out was created by Anna Wintour (editor-at-large of Vogue) four years ago to stimulate the economy and support fashion, the event was only held in New York City to kick off fashion week. And while Indianapolis may not be known as a fashion capital of any kind, us Indy gals were thrilled to hear that Indy would be participating in Fashion’s Night Out! It gave us the chance to sip on cocktails, chat with local bloggers, shop fall trends, and support the economy of fashion.

There were several events around Indianapolis to celebrate Fashion’s Night Out, but we attended the Saks Fifth Avenue show to get a sneak peek at all things fall. The show featured fab looks including tons of tweed, structured blazers, ladylike gloves & hats, and the ever-popular equestrian trend. We’re totally digging the rich fabrics and patterns: fur, jacquard, tweed, houndstooth, and brocade. Not to mention fabulous deep & rich colors like plum, burgundy, hunter green, and navy!

Some images from the show (p.s. excuse the blur! these ladies were workin’ it so much it was hard to capture!):

Handbags: From Summer to School!

Summer is winding down and it will soon be time to head back to school. While you’re spending your days filling your online shopping cart with the latest clothing trends, you may not be thinking about your most important accessory: a great handbag! Your first thought may be to choose a style that’s appropriate for fall back-to-school style, but don’t count out summer just yet! Family BBQs are still in full swing, and likely will be until after the Labor Day holiday.

These great handbags are ideal to carry from the backyard to the school courtyard!

Striped & Sassy

Handbag Heaven striped tote

This adorable tote brings the perfect combination of summer fun and practicality. The Anchors Away Striped Tote is ideal for storing the typical cookout necessities such as a swimsuit and flip flops or delicious BBQ treats. What’s even better is that this bag easily converts to a practical book bag when the time comes to return to school.

Wicker Woman

Fall 2012 handbag trend reports show wicker handbags will be a must! This adorable Kennedy Wicker Tote provides a beachy look that is a perfect match for a summer BBQ, as well as an academic setting. Go with this fashion-forward look late this summer and be a respected trend-setter by fall!

Crossbody Hottie

Crossbody bags have shot to fashion stardom within the last year. The Emily Crossbody Bag shown above is bright enough to make a statement at a family get-together and just big enough to carry the necessities. When back-to-school time rolls around, think fall harvest. The orange and brown will be a perfect fit!

Leopard Lady

How cute is this Amanda Leopard Messenger Bag? Combining a bright cream with warm, tan, and brown animal print accents, this bag will easily take you from summer sweetheart to fall fashionista. Additionally, messenger bags are the perfect size to carry everything you need, without being overly large.

Woven Maven

Woven handbags are another fall trend to be on the lookout for. Rather than waiting for your friends to try it out first, take a chance and try one out this summer. The bright colors and playful woven accents of this Madison Woven Buckle Satchel make it ideal for end-of-summer fun, while the neutral gray exterior and stylish accents make it the perfect statement bag for heading back to school.

Which of these backyard to schoolyard bags are your favorite?

I Spy With My Little Eye:Handbag Look for Less!

Hello there, handbag loves!

colorblock handbag look for less

While style-surfing on Pinterest during my lunch break, I stumbled upon a drool-worthy colorblock bag with a not-so-droolworthy price tag. Oy, my wallet is aching just thinking about it!

As I hovered my mouse over the “Pin it” button to clip the pricey purse  onto my “Dream Closet” board (you know, for the items I only wish I could afford, but sadly know I’ll never have), a very brilliant light bulb went off in my head.

Mosey on over to our new arrivals, and you can find not one, not two, but THREE handbag look-alikes:

splurge vs. steal fashion handbags

Chelsea Colorblock Satchel. Claire Belted Satchel. Alessandra Keyhole Satchel.

These gorgeous bags have scary-similar shading, structure, and texture to the designer bag at a fraction (more like a sliver :)) of the price! Say see-ya to wishful Pinterest dreaming, and hello to your very own dream handbag. ♥

 

Have a lovely day, glamour gals!

Around The World With Eight Key Bags

The girls here at Handbag Heaven are itching to take a trip somewhere, so I thought it might be fun to spend the afternoon daydreaming and escaping to some of my favorite vacation destinations.

Ready to take a trip? Of course you are ;)  Pack your bags, and let the excursion begin!

On Handbag Heaven Airlines, we celebrate each culture’s norms, foods, and language — and fashion is prioritized, of course! So fasten those seat belts, and put your seats in the upright position; in case of an emergency, use the oxygen masks, and remember the seat cushions are life preservers.

Traveling The World

1.Yellow Clutch // 2. Zebra Handbag // 3.  Tan Bag 4. Red Satchel // 5. Exotic Handbag //6.  Brown Satchel // 7. Green Clutch // 8. Fringed Handbag

We are making our way around the world in eight key bags (get it!?). Oh the places we’ll go!

After a quick flight down south, the journey begins.

Stop 1-  Brazil: Reese Clutch

The famous Rio De Janeiro’s impeccable and vibrant colors remind me of the Reese Clutch.  Fortunately, this stop happens to be during the annual festival of Carnival.  Packed with tons of people and huge celebrations, this place is full of color combinations that are dazzling.  I even saw a yellow and pink outfit that matches the clutch; both have amazing appeal.  After all the fun, it’s time to fly!

Stop 2-  Africa: Carmen Bag

We’re landed and loaded up for a safari.  Spotted (more like striped!) in the distance is a beautiful zebra.  Immediately, the Carmen Bag comes to mind.  These amazing black and white animals inspire a perfect pattern to accent any outfit.  Great trip so far, and I’m ready for the next stop.

Stop 3-  Australia: Megan Satchel

Let’s go Down Under, mate!  With hopes to see the Great Barrier Reef and the Opera House, we first trek through the Outback.  As a kangaroo hops nearby, I think of the Megan Satchel.  Both the bag and kangaroo have beautiful, tan complexions — and honestly, plenty of pouch space!    This journey has been long, but happily, it continues!

Stop 4-  South Korea: Sabrina Satchel

Here in South Korea, I have to taste the country’s signature dish, kimchi.  Packed with a powerful taekwondo kick, the red chili powder flavor makes a girl stop in her tracks.  I begin to think about the fiery red Sabrina Satchel that provides the same power-packing punch to any outfit.  With water in hand, I head on.

Stop 5-  Russia: Jamison Shoulder Bag

Russia is packed with amazing architecture and ornate design.  I stumble across a vendor selling matryoshka dolls that resemble the same color palette as the Jamison Shoulder Bag.  These carved dolls, which each have a smaller doll inside, have intricate details painted all over. Just like the Jamison, they are perfection! I’m sad to be nearing the end of the trip; fortunately, there are a few more stops.

Stop 6-  France: Monroe Satchel

I need to wear my high fashion pieces here because Paris is the home of Chanel.  Lounging under the Eiffel Tower, I see tweed-inspired designs all over, which remind me of  the chocolate tweed Monroe Satchel.  Both Paris and Monroe are chic and elegant. Awe-inspired, I feel a need to stop for a croissant. As I finish eating, I prepare for the next stop.

Stop 7-  Ireland: Luna Clutch

Have you ever seen anything as green and serene as Ireland? The homeland of St. Patrick’s Day is breathtaking, and this foliage reminds me of the striking green color of the Luna Clutch.  I absolutely adore both with their sleek exteriors.  It’s sad my trip is ending, but I’m ready to head home.

Stop 8- USA: August Bag

As I land in the Midwest, I put on my cowboy hat, boots, and get out my August Bag. I loved the journey and other cultures, but fully embrace the fact that this is my inspired look.

Around the world in 8-key bags was so much fun and certainly style-savvy, don’t you think!? It was a blast to see how each unique design resembles a different country’s culture. But now, it’s time to sleep because jet lag is no fun :)

Have a great trip and the loveliest of weekends!

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!
