Hot Trend: Croc bags… get ‘em cheap!

Posted on June 23rd, 2008 by Fashion Juice (Admin) | Leave a Comment »

 Croc bags, among other types of exotic bags are among the most expensive types of bags. Still, it continues to be one of the most coveted bags in the fashion world. The luxe brands sell it for almost $2000-$3000 or even more! Not all can afford those kind of bags but if you still want to have a croc bag that’s not that pricey, I would recommend the L.A.P.A. croc bags from Florence, Italy!

Since the second half of this century, L.A.P.A. has been synonymous with finely crafted briefcases and luggage. Nicola Stanescu, who founded the company in 1955, started out producing a limited number of superior quality articles in a small workshop in Florence. That quality has remained unchanged over the years. Today his children Andrea and Rossella continue in their father’s footsteps. Top quality leathers (tanned with environmentally-friendly vegetable extracts) and accessories are carefully chosen to enhance the style of finished product. Each item is crafted and sewn with the same careful attention to detail, making each article unique. A constant search for perfection in every article makes each new collection an example of classic Italian style.

Our Addiction to Bags, Bags, and more Bags

Posted on June 20th, 2008 by Fashion Juice (Admin) | Leave a Comment »

Anya Hindmarch is an English designer who released the super pop “I’m not a Plastic Bag”. This mirror straw clutch is one of my favorite clutches that the designer showcases this summer. It’s a perfect example of a sophisticated summer bag! It screams LUXURY! Get it a Vivre for $395. Click on the photo to get one now!

This one from Glorinha Paranagua is the more color-specific clutch that is so cute… it’s like you don’t know which color to get. What’s more s that it’s cheaper… just $275!!! Get it from Vivre… another great online store I just discovered. Click on the photo to begin shopping!

Now if you’re looking for a not so expensive exotic bag – this Turquoise PYTHON skin tote bag from Ghibli is the answer! I love that the top part – the handles and the shape – is so reminiscient of Dior bags. The only difference is that it has more room for your stuff and it’s cheaper too! Plus, it’s PYTHON skin! It’s only $1,278 at Forzieri Italia! Click on the photo to check it out.

“On the cheaper side of things” comes the New York & company’s City Style Pleated Satchel. It comes in black, brown, and khaki color. I love the blue the most since it doesn’t look like it’s only $34.95! Yep, you heard me. This is a cute everyday bag that you can get for less than 40 bucks. Click on the photo to get directed to NY&Co!

Multi-Task Your Bags!

Posted on June 11th, 2008 by Fashion Juice (Admin) | Leave a Comment »

It’s been awhile that I haven’t posted anything… And now Fashion Juice is back! At long last, I’ve been able to breathe from a lot of work… Whew. So anyway, I’m going to talk about mult-tasking your bags. I got the idea from Bag Borrow or Steal because of the bags they have featured recently. It’s all about choosing a bag that you can carry from day to night. These bags are convertible bags that you can use as a shopping tote or day bag then make it a clutch for the evening. I have a bag of the same function, the Nine West fold over clutch. It can be carried as a clutch, but when expanded, it’s a colorful and exotic hand bag! It’s definitely a great buy. Well if you can’t understand what I’m trying to say, just check out these bags!

The Cutest Bags to Carry This Season

Posted on May 15th, 2008 by Fashion Juice (Admin) | Leave a Comment »

Get the family together this Father’s Day for a trip to Universal Studios! (PROMO CODE: UNIVERSAL)

Fashion Juice definitely recommends these cutest and gorgeous bags to carry during the warmer months of the year. They’re not the high end designers that you know but they are from prominent names who give you stylish pieces that go well with your spring and summer outfits. The first two on my list is not necessarily the top two but are from the same label and same collection, te Rafe NY Camilla. The white handles mixed with a basic color is what makes these two handbags classy to don for summer. Pair it with white hats and you get that “Luxe Resort Look”. Love it! 

The next two bags are from the label Pa-tou-tou. They are quite unique and not your usual native bag. They mix natural and modern together. And if you love dogs, the silhoutte is the perfect tote whether you want to carry them around with your stuff or with your pet’s… hehe!

If you’re in love with stripes and colors, these four bags are just so divine! I love The Lilly Pulitzer cabana tote simply because it has made the pink and green look so elegant. It takes away that “Barbie-Pink” impression that some people have… I also love the Melie Bianco because not only is it cheaper than the rest of the bags here, it’s also fashionable! I love the yellow color – perfect for your sun dresses and makes you want to put on a smile… hehe!

Lastly, if you love the shades of brown, these two are just so cute. I love Anne Klein’s elegance yet I love the woven material the Francesco Biasia has. Oooooh… makes me want to shop shop shop! Grrrr…

YOU CAN GET THEM THROUGH PIPERLIME:

Fashion Juice is Back with some “Juicy-gossip”

Posted on May 6th, 2008 by Fashion Juice (Admin) | 1 Comment »

Nope, I’m not gonna talk about gossips here… hehe. I’m talking about the new gossip bag from Juicy Couture. Seems like Gossip Girl has really put themselves up there that even bags are now named after them… hehe. I mean who won’t love such a TV series what with the juicy gossips, love stories, and elite life, right? In fact, even if the show is more about a teenager’s life, and you’re already a mom, the more you’ll be curious about what teens do these days. Plus, the mom-dad-love interest also makes the show universal and more lovable. Anyway, were not here to talk about Gossip Girl but the new Juicy Couture Gossip Bag. What I like about it is it’s resemblance to Marc Jacobs bag. I don’t know if you’ve noticed it but I have. Anyway, here it is. Available in black or brown, the Gossip shoulder bag is made of lambskin and is selling at $450. Yummy. On a personal note though, I cant still see Juicy Couture as a lady bag. I deem it as a junior high or college’s fashion bag. After all, that seems to be their demographic.
