I’ve been looking for a handbag for a long time, an everyday kind of purse.  For me is really hard to decide on an everyday handbag.  I get sick of things quite quickly if I don’t love it – which makes me spend more trying to replace it.  I want to stick with one purse but to do that – it has to be: versatile, basic but at the same time stand out, and it has to go with all my different looks (or most of).  I want something classy and relaxed at the same time.  It doesn’t have to be perfect for every occasion, but something that I could work with.
To my pleasant surprise, it was just what I found with this Michael Kors marked down from $448 to $198 at Nordstrom Rack.  I’m not a big fan of logos, which made me thought about not buying this bag, BUT it was a small price to pay for all the other features that made this bag so great for me.  Separated compartments make finding my keys when I’m coming back from work a breeze and help keep me organized.  The bag has amazing space where I can put everything I most use.  It has a big handle so I can have it on my arm or wear it crossbody- which is good for living in a big,busy city.  The great leather quality, nice finishing, golden details, and magnetic closure means I think I’m going to like this bag for a long time.

I finally came across the opportunity to upgrade my everyday handbag and had been eyeing the brand Marc by Marc Jacobs. Walking through Macy’s, this little number caught my eye right away. I loved the shape and size, perfect for everyday use. The handle is what I probably loved the most, however, allowing it to turn from shoulder bag to arm tote. Having a more simplistic taste, I didn’t need excess studs or padlocks, like most Michael Kors totes have. The pockets inside allow a personal space for my iPhone and iPod, along with my other necessities; wallet, checkbook, sunglasses, and camera. There was no need for contemplating on other handbag styles, plus the soft Italian leather was a deciding factor.
