One Year of No Shopping: Handbags

If there is one fashion accessory that I probably do not need any more of, it is handbags.  I've always loved how a handbag can make an entire outfit, and I have spent more money on handbags over the years than I care to mention.  Although I don't need to spend another dime on a handbag, here are some that I may have to purchase next week when I can shop again:

1. Claire Vivier Foldover clutch {here}

2. Ela Editor's pouch {here}

3. Alexander Wang clutch {here}

4. Marie Turnor Picnic clutch {here}

5. Loeffler Randall Mini Rider bag {here}

6. Kooba bag {here}

7. Botkier Valencia bag {here}

8. Rebecca Minkoff Covet bag {here}

9. Jessica Jensen envelope clutch {here}

10. Rebecca Minkoff Mini Affair bag {here}

Which one would you choose!?

Designer Spotlight: Loeffler Randall

One of my favorite brands for luxe accessories is Loeffler Randall.   I discovered Loeffler Randall years ago when reading a fashion magazine and immediately noticed their simple yet luxurious leather flat boots.  Their products are of the best quality, and I love the way they have expanded their brand to include gorgeous handbags as well; the Rider bag has become an iconic handbag in the fashion world, and I can honestly say it's one of my favorite handbags out right now.  Here are a few Loeffler Randall items that I am ABSOLUTELY considering to purchase once I can shop again:

1. Rider bag {here}

2. Rosie peep-toe pumps {here} <--- on sale!

3. Matilde flat boot {here}

4. Pouchette bag {here}

5. Blaise flat moccasin {here} <--- on sale!

6. Mini Rider bag {here}

And here's some great news: Loeffler Randall is currently having a 20% off sale with discount code "FRIENDSNFAM"; take advantage because the sale ends tomorrow {4/29}!

1 Year Reward

As of today, I have not shopped for 9 months! I cannot believe how fast the time has passed, but it honestly gets more difficult not to shop - maybe because I know the end is near and I am DYING to add some new pieces to my closet! It really has been a rewarding journey so far, and I love hearing my friends tell me how they are trying to go through a period without spending money on fashion-related shopping! Of course I often think about what I will buy once my year of no shopping is over, so here are some items that have recently caught my eye:

Kooba Soho Charlton bag {here}

Madewell parka {here}

Ellen Himic ring {here}

McQ Alexander McQueen studded neon pumps {here}

Alexis Bittar hinged bracelet {here}

Tory Burch hat - it's on sale! {here}

Loeffler Randall Quinnie flats {here}

Burberry scarf {here}

Kevia hoop earrings {here}
