QUALITY HANDBAGS UNDER $500

CHLOE HANDBAG – SIMILAR THIS YEAR THE SMALL TESS AND MINI TESS

SEE BY CHLOE

These bags have the same look and feel as Chloe, including a signature O-ring. I recommend these two styles all the time. They are come in great neutrals too.

FRAME

The size and sexy shape of the cross body bag are perfect. The tobacco and Leopard will work with all colors.

REBECCA MINKOFF

Rebecca Mincoff does a great job of mimicking the the design details that make her high end designers counterparts so popular without looking like a “dupe”

MARC JACOBS

Always current. His tote is under $200 and a summer favorite. I’ve got my eye on this soft box bag. I love the shape.

DESIGNER UNDER $1000

BELT BAG similar| TANK | PANTS | SLIDES similar | CARDIGAN

Designer prices have gone up and it’s harder to find a piece under $1000. Get your luxury fix with a belt bag. Wear them cross body, at your hip, or your natural waist. You’ll be hands free and in style!

I’ve Been a Stylist For Almost 25 Years and Swear There Are No Good Capsule Wardrobe Examples So I’m Trademarking Mine

I've been a stylist for almost 25 years and I swear there are no good capsule wardrobe examples. Most capsule wardrobe examples either have too many pieces that leave you guessing what goes together, or a minimal mix that makes boring outfits. My capsule wardrobe examples are different. Each one includes a 7-10 item checklist of updated closet essentials, more than two weeks of different outfit ideas, and options to customize each one to match your style. Every capsule formula comes with a unique high-low mix of brands. You'll also get professional personal styling suggestions that will help you choose the best fits and variations of each style.
