Kooba Tied Convertible Hobo, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
The Tied Convertible Hobo bag by Kooba has such a relaxed feeling to it I can’t seem to picture it with anything other than a cute pair of jeans. Available in several different colors (including classics white and black) this lilac version isn’t too bright that you can’t almost treat it as a […]

Dakota Fanning & Her Balenciaga Arena Giant Purse
I must be getting old if Dakota Fanning of all people is suddenly old enough to own her own Balenciaga.
