Because the event was the hottest ...]]> Once again, this year’s Fashion’s Night Out held last September 8, proved to be a thrilling collaborative event. The annual global shopping party had hundreds of retailers, celebrities, and fashion labels staging events and participating. It was a night to celebrate fashion, and boost brands, as well as the economy.

The former fashion model went for an earth-themed look ...]]> Fringe is fabulous, and actress Joy Bryant probably knew that because she opted to carry a cognac fringe crossbody bag at the launch of Target’s & William Rast’s Limited Edition Collection shopping event on December 11, 2010 at Factory Place in Los Angeles, California. Take a look:

The former fashion model went for an earth-themed look with cognac knee-high boots and canvas jacket. She added a boho flair to her casual look by carrying the fringe crossbody bag. Here’s the fringe crossbody bag in detail:

I’m not exactly a fan of Joy’s ensemble, but the fringe crossbody certainly added a hip factor to her whole casual look. It’s a cute crossbody and its size makes for that easy everyday wear.
