fall 2016 mansur gavriel

Mansur Gavriel available for pre-order now from left: tote / frame bag / bucket bag / pink patent tote / navy bag

Mansur Gavriel has introduced their fall 2016 collection and made it available immediately for pre-order online. There are several new colors for the fall 2016 season which include navy, pink, burgundy, bright blue, red, and more!

For fall 2016, Mansur Gavriel has introduced new fabrications. In addition to coated calf, Mansur Gavriel’s fall 2016 collection includes suede, canvas, and patent leather. There are also new shoe styles which include loafers, and pumps.

The new tote is my all-time favorite piece from the Mansur Gavriel fall 2016 collection. The tote comes in small, and large. The bow gives it a sweet look which will work well with New York’s late 1960s, and early 1970s influence for the fall 2016 season.

There is also a little mini moon clutch which is a great wardrobe staple. The frame bag offers a vintage vibe; and looks like something you might steal from your Grandmother’s closet. The collection has an overall feminine, sweet vibe which is sure to be hit! Mansur Gavriel can do no wrong.

It is always difficult to find Mansur Gavriel in stock. So now that Mansur Gavriel has released their fall 2016 collection early, and available for pre-order, this is the ideal time to snag the Mansur Gavriel fall 2016 bag of your dreams! I am eyeing the tote but cannot decide on color or size! We all need to act quick before they are gone. Not only will these bags sell out, they are only available for pre-order for two days. So either way, we all need to act fast!

You can find Mansur Gavriel fall 2016 handbags and shoes available for pre-order online now here. I clipped my favorite styles from the collection, and placed them into the scroll bar below. To view the entire collection available for pre-order, please click here.

I cannot wait to hear which bag and/or shoes you end up getting! Wish me luck decided which tote to pre-order!

Rebecca Minkoff Finn shoulder bag in black

The Rebecca Minkoff Finn shoulder bag, which converts to a clutch, is a fun way to rock the fringe trend. Rebecca Minkoff first launched the fringe, Finn handbag back in 2014, and since then, she has released it every season in both classic hues, and seasonal shades.

Rebecca Minkoff is known for creating high quality, sturdy handbags which are high on style, and low in price. The Finn has lived up to Rebecca Minkoff’s reputation, and delivers on both runway style, and durability. Love that!

I have owned my Rebecca Minkoff Finn clutch in black since 2014, and I still wear it often. It has been caught in the rain, brought to the gym, thrown around by my kids, and been through the daily grind of life. On this day in 2016, my Rebecca Minkoff Finn handbag still looks brand new! Now THAT is fabulous 😉

The playful fringe on the Finn clutch is in two rows, giving the bag a full fringe look and feel. The strap is detachable, allowing the bag to be worn as a clutch, shoulder bag, or cross body bag. I love having the option to wear it different ways. This also makes Rebecca Minkoff’s Finn bag great for travel!

There is a strong zipper closure on the bag which has held up to many zips, and unzips, over the years. This is a testament to the high quality construction of the bag.

The interior of the Rebecca Minkoff Finn handbag has a playful pattern on a thick, cotton twill lining. There is one pocket which is great for holding business cards, folded cash, credit cards, or a lipstick. I can fit my wallet, iPhone, lipstick, keys, and other small items inside the bag. It holds quite a bit for it’s little size!

The fringe trend, which has been part of the Western trend, boho-chic trend, and 70’s trend, is showing no sign of slowing down in the next few seasons. A cute little handbag such as the Finn, is a great way to rock this trend. It can be worn with casual attire, or as a clutch with a dressy ensemble for a night out on the the town. Fabulous!

The Rebecca Minkoff Finn clutch can be found online here, here, and here. It is priced at under $200, making it a great bag for yourself, or to give as gift! Love!

Fendi DotCom satchel review

The Fendi DotCom satchel is one of the hottest new handbags of 2016. Fendi is already known for designing beautiful, high quality, timeless handbags, so when they launched the Fendi DotCom, I knew it would be a winner!

The initial launch of the Fendi DotCom satchel offers the handbag in a creamy milk hue, classic black, cool sky blue, bark, red, and dove grey. There are also versions with whip-stitching!. Although the black with cobalt clutch insert was calling my name,  I already have a couple of black satchels, so I decided to go for the dove grey since I do not own a satchel in this neutral hue. I am so glad I went with this color! The dove grey will be a beautiful light color for the spring and summer months; plus it is a color which transcends season. Love!

The Fendi DotCom satchel is made from smooth leather with a suede interior. The leather can scratch, which I already found out, but the scratch blends into the leather and cannot be easily seen without really looking hard. I have a feeling over time, the leather will soften a bit and offer a beautiful patina. I am looking forward to it aging a bit.

I love the versatility of the Fendi DotCom satchel. It has two large compartments with two equal interior pockets which each fit an iPhone perfectly. The interior clutch is offered in a contrasting color, mine is poppy. The clutch is great for storing small items such as keys or lipstick. It can also be removed and worn as a clutch. This makes the Fendi DotCom a great day into evening bag. You can go from work to dinner just by removing the clutch and carrying it in lieu of the satchel. Love that!

There are two ways to carry the Fendi DotCom satchel. There is a classic lady bag satchel top handle which can be worn over the forearm, or carried by hand. The Fendi DotCom satchel also offers a detachable shoulder strap which allows the bag to hang at the hip. The straps are on the thick side; making them extremely comfortable. I am in love!

The interior is roomy enough to carry file folders for work, an iPad, a book, and I can detach the lens from my DSLR camera and place both parts in the bag. It is great! This is a perfect satchel for work if you do not have to carry too many things with you. It has a beautiful formal, structured look which looks fabulous with office attire, dressy attire, daytime fundraiser ensembles, and a fabulous lunch outfit. This can easily be a workhorse handbag.

The Fendi DotCom satchel is currently part of Fendi’s resort 2016 collection, but it will be continuing for many seasons to come since it is already proving to be popular. The handbag is selling out fast!

If you want to get your hands on one of the first Fendi DotCom satchels, you can find it online here, here, here, and here.
