Each week, we like to introduce one of our social media fans, whether that person be a Twitter follower or a fan of us on Facebook. Be sure to check back weekly for a Q&A section with our chosen fan of the week. And who knows, maybe we’ll choose you next!
Meet Sarah!
Sarah found us through the YouTube makeup guru, MissChievous. Sarah is a huge fan and a subscriber of hers, so when MissChievous held a contest to win a bag from Handbag Heaven, she entered right away! She immediately checked out our site and loved it. Sarah hasn’t bought any of our bags yet, but intends to. She describes all the bags as reasonably priced, totally on cue with what’s fashionable and very unique!
1.) What is your personal philosophy on fashion?
Being a jewelry designer and lover of all things fashionable, I’d say my fashion philosophy is a simple one. Always be yourself! Don’t be afraid to love something that isn’t on trend because fashion trends come and go but the things you love to wear the most will stay with you for years! That being said, a fabulous handbag that you love will go with everything no matter what you wear and will make you feel confident, special and happy! It is a great way to add that extra something to your ensemble, and if you want to incorporate something trendy into your wardrobe without overdoing it, a handbag is definitely the way to go.
My personal fashion style is laid back and comfortable. I love a good sexy pair of jeans, a soft t-shirt and sparkly flats and I would never forget some fabulous jewelry. I’m very much into jewelry and I currently have my own line called Mitzvah Jewelry. My favourite fashion icons are Jennifer Lopez, Stella McCartney and Michael Kors.
2.) How often do you switch handbags?
I tend to switch bags twice a year, once in the fall/winter and once in the spring/summer. Generally I have two bags that I use for each, a larger and a smaller for both. My favourite style is always the hobo and I also have a few small clutches that I use for special occasions.
3.) Do you prefer large handbags to store everything in or are you a clutch/small purse person?
To me, a handbag is something I never leave home without! It’s like a good friend, so reliable, always holding everything I need. I am married with an 11 year old son, so it’s important to me that my bag is not only really fashionable but also functional. I don’t like tiny bags because they don’t hold enough. I like a mid-sized bag that I can throw a water bottle in, some sunscreen if I’m walking and if my son is with me, some band-aids and such for those just-in-case moments.
4.) What was your most memorable handbag you ever wore?
My most memorable handbag is definitely the one I use now! I bought it three years ago at a small boutique in Montreal. It is a bright pink hobo from Oilily, that has a small floral print on it. I bought it because it was just the right size, the perfect color and completely unique from anything else I’d seen. To this day I still get compliments on it all the time which makes me feel fabulous!
