CK Calvin Klein Zero Gravity Hobo, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
As I’m looking at this stark white bag by Calvin Klein we’ve just had an official blizzard here in the Midwest and everything is covered in crisp drifts of white snow. Although I think this Zero Gravity Hobo was intended to evoke vibes of outer space it fits in perfectly as a ’snowball’ […]
Botkier Taylor Satchel, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
A lovely, comfy looking day bag, the Taylor Satchel by Botkier comes in brown or sand pearl lambskin.

Fendi Pink Sequin Tote
Lately I’m totally dazzled by anything super shiny or sequined, but I prefer it on a small piece that works itself nicely into my existing wardrobe.
