Pretty Things at Every Price: Crossbody Bags

June 23, 2010 by

The Tipsy gals are up for another challenge.  We are on the hunt for that perfect crossbody (something that is very near and dear to my heart), but with each gal in a diff price range.

  1. Der’s ($14.94) Poppie Jones Fashion Crossbody Bag –  such a fun color and UNBELIEVABLE price! Perfect for a date night or girls night out when you don’t wanna be lugging around some hefty satchel.
  2. Court’s (29.99) Libby Edelman Woven Detail Convertible Crossbody Bag – love this throwback/hippie-ish look.  Love the price and of course love that its on the smaller side. The woven details and color make this look really unique.
  3. AK’s ($36.00) Croft & Borrow Crossbody – Pewter! I love this color, it goes with EVERYTHING! I can see this number helping me out considerably during our annual Round Top extravaganza.
  4. Sarah’s ($48.00) Steve Madden Bluvsic Crossbody– I’m loving the dressiness of this bag…it’s like sporty “glam” spice! (I also agree with AK that pewter is the WAY TO GO in the bag department…)

There you have it.  We’ll be up for more of these price challenges, so stay tuned or let us know what you want us to find on your budget!

I Wear My Sunglasses at Night

May 11, 2010 by

Sunglasses are not something I’m willing to shovel out a ton of cash on. Well, it’s because I’ll just scratch them, break them, lose them, or see like 57 pairs that I NEED to own. Plus, I find that you can find great knock offs that resemble the high dolla’ ones at that. So, here are some cutie patooties that are worth the small greenbacks.

  1. Forever21, Sunglasses
  2. Urban Outfitters, Sweetheart Sunglasses
  3. Charlotte Russe, Milky Large Rectangular Sunglasses
  4. Charlotte Russe, Leopard Print Sunglasses
  5. Target, Oversized Fashion Sunglasses
  6. Alloy, Kena Aviators
