Our First ShoeDazzle Purchase

Tuesday, February 21, 2012

Every month, we receive an email from Shoe Dazzle reminding us that our show room is ready. While we visit the site every month, it wasn’t until today that we made a purchase.

The bag we purchased is a shoulder bag with braid detailing and a chain strap, called Konya.

Here’s how it looks when carried:

We can’t wait to receive the bag. We’re going to use the bag with our tank tops, maxi skirts, and gladiator sandals this spring.

If you’re not member of ShoeDazzle yet, it’s very easy to sign up for an account. It takes less than 10 minutes to set up a style profile with the fashion portal. All products in the store are $ 39.95 each but you have to remember that this amount is charged to your account every month, and you can get one product for that amount monthly. If you don’t like anything in your showroom for any given month, make sure you “skip” the month. All this will be explained when you sign up with the store. The monthly fee is only charged after you make your first purchase. This means you’re not charged any money for just creating an account.

Here’s another bag that we sort of liked:

ShoeDazzle Hilliard

It’s a no-nonsense hobo bag with a removable faux suede tassel. We think this bag can be very handy for work and play because of its size.

Lucy Hale Loves Her Rebecca Minkoff Flame Satchel

Saturday, February 18, 2012

Many celebrities are just like us, when they find a bag they like, they tend to use it all the time. This seems to be the case with Lucy Hale and her Rebecca Minkoff flame satchel. Lucy brought the bag to the opening of the Converse West Coast flagship store in Santa Monica, California last February 15.

We think Lucy loves her Rebecca Minkoff bag because she also brought it to the Philippines when she visited said country to do some modelling work for a Philippine clothing brand. Lucy even revealed the contents her bag to the Philippine press. You can watch Lucy unloading the contents of her bag in this YouTube video that we discovered today.

If you’re loving the look of this bag (which is roomy based on the video), you can buy it from Zappos.

Rebecca Minkoff Flame Satchel

It is already discounted so it is now only $322.99 from the store. It is a handbag that can be converted into a shoulder bag because of the removable strap. The bag has studs and a tassels making it super chic.

The bag is also available in Bluefly. Aside from the gray version, you can get the flame bag in red.

The bag also has embroidered dots all over the surface creating a quilted effect. Rebecca Minkoff also pays attention to the interiors of their bags. This style has leopard print interior.
