Top 5 Tory Burch Bags

I am mildly obsessed with Tory Burch.  She has become one of my favorite designers, and I have a growing collection of Tory Burch bags that I am proud to show off as often as I can.  It’s easy to get hooked on Tory Burch bags because there are so many styles, textures and fabrics that change from season to season.  From canvas to straw, metallic leather, nylon and denim, beso has so many great Tory Burch bags to choose from.  My top 5 favorites are everyday bags with a twist:

More Fringe Bags for Fall/Winter ’10

We have seen fringe bags for several seasons now, and it looks like they’re not going away any time soon.  I was not a huge fan at first, but now I’m actually considering buying a fringe bag!  I did not think the trend would last this long and since it has, it’s only gotten better.  I don’t usually recommend splurging on seasonal trends, however, if you plan on making it your everyday bag, you may just get your money’s worth!  Check out some of my favorites that I found on beso:

Bag It: Matt & Nat Handbags

Matt & Nat handbags marry cutting-edge design and social responsibility.  It was one of the first brands to launch an eco-friendly handbag collection before it became fashionable.  Creative director Inder Bedi believes you should not have to make a choice between being chic and being responsible, and I agree.  Here are a few of my favorites out right now:

Cocktails and Funky Clutches

When I go out for cocktails, I usually focus on what clutch to carry rather than the actual clothes.  A cocktail party is the perfect setting to show off accessories, and clutches are always a ‘do.’  This fall, look for bold colors, glossy finishes, texture and abstract prints to really make a statement.

Fall Trend: Purple Accessories

Purple is one of the hottest colors for fall, so if you are looking for an inexpensive way to update your look, grab some accessories in magenta, plum, eggplant or any shade in between, and you’re good to go!  Purple is a color that looks good with other jewel tones, and of course neutrals.  I have been shopping on beso for an everyday bag to wear once the season changes because being practical is just as important as being trendy!
