Top 5 Back-to-School Basics: Saved by the Bag
No matter how long it’s been since you hit a campus for September’s first day of school, we never seem to lose that “back-to-school” feeling. Post-Labor Day it’s time to get serious again (well, not too serious!), and it’s the perfect time of year to get back to basics and pick up bags that will serve you well through spring.

I mean, it was designed to blend in! Wallflowers need not apply, though. Camo must be executed the right way and that requires confidence and style.
Clare Vivier Mini Haircalf Bag: Guilt-Free by Association
This Clare Vivier can help tide me over while I’m working on getting my Givenchy. It’s a mini version of sorts – the cow print I love at a price point I love just as much! Clare Vivier can always be relied upon for guilt-free indulgences, and this is one that will get tons of use.
Givenchy New Rigid Medium Crossbody Bag: The Camera (Bag) Doesn’t Lie
I love this bag. Tired of all the camera bags out there that don’t quite click, I’m happy to see Givenchy getting it right with their aptly named Rigid bag. Hyper-structured, it may not be meant for carrying a camera, but it still has that same adventurous air. A great crossbody is absolutely essential in … Continue reading “Givenchy New Rigid Medium Crossbody Bag: The Camera (Bag) Doesn’t Lie”
