Yak Pak And A Giveaway

September 3, 2013 by robincharmagne 8 Comments

Hello Pretties,

Disclosure: I received a complimentary product to review. Please note that all opinions are 100% my own and I only accept sponsors and products that fit this blog.

Did you enjoy the Labor Day Holiday? Catch any good sales? Believe it or not, I didn’t buy one thing over the holiday weekend. But if I did, a handbag would be my first choice. I posted about my love of handbags and I was thrilled when the lovely folks at Yak Pak sent me a very pretty tote to review. Yak Pak, a New-York based lifestyle brand, started in 1989 and produces an array of accessories including backpacks, messenger bags and casual accessories. They are regarded as industry leaders in providing bold and forward thinking designs and styles for their accessory line. I chose the travel tote.

I really loved the vibrant colors in this tote and the deep center pocket that closes like a purse. The size and weight of the tote is perfect for traveling. The deep inside pocket provides easy access for all my essentials, e. g. cell phone, makeup case, wallet, keys, checkbook. Yep, this tote held all of those things I don’t leave the house without. For travel, I would not be concerned at all about theft with the deep pocket, so I would also put my camera and foreign currency in there as well. And, most important, this tote is constructed nicely and is high quality. The vinyl makes it super easy to clean! I would only add one feature to this tote and that is an inside zip pocket. I enjoyed carrying this tote and look forward to using it for upcoming travel.

Now guess what? The kind folks at Yak Pak are offering you a free accessory. Use the Rafflecopter tool to enter! Good Luck!

Mini-Series – 3 Essentials for a Beach Vacation

July 11, 2013 by robincharmagne

Hello there pretty ones,
Wow, it’s Thursday already, aren’t you glad? I mentioned in a previous post that I was preparing for vacation in a few weeks so today drum roll please, I’m starting a mini-series of things every beach bum needs for a few lazy days chillaxin’! First up – the Tote Bag.

beach tote bags

Clockwise from the top:
Red Raffia – Tory Burch – $275//Beach Bag – Dooney and Bourke – $198//Beach Baubles – Le Jou Jou – $35//Anchors Away – Vera Bradley – $49//Pretty Pom Poms – Mar y Sol – $108//Take Me to the Beach – Wildfox Couture – $15//Simple Stripes – Black.Co.UK – $33//She Sells Seashells – Yoox – $69//Grommets Galore – 2b Stores – $25//

Tote bags are true fashion accessories and come in a variety of fabrics such as canvas, leather, and plastic. Lots of options beyond the traditional straw bag. It’s essential for carrying all your goodies – phone, tablet, books/magazines, lip balm, sunscreen, water bottle, and of course your beach towel. Choose a tote bag with shoulder straps so it’s easier to carry across a sandy beach. Now if you want to get super cute, match your tote bag to your swimsuit and cover-up! Can you say beach babe! Yep you still wanna be pretty on the beach. My pick is a tote in two major trends, black and white and floral. It’s a big bag with shoulder straps and matches my swimsuit!

You Can’t Fake Fashion!

March 19, 2013 by robincharmagne

Hello pretty ones!
One of my favorite sites to shop is ebay and I am loving this collaboration with CFDA, Council of Fashion Designers of America “You Can’t Fake Fashion” featuring 90 one-of-a kind tote bags. This shopping event is to raise awareness about counterfeit goods and to showcase original designs from top designers.

I do like a designer bag and this is a chance to own one from some of my favs, Lilly Pulitzer, Diane von Furstenberg, Ralph Lauren, Tory Burch, and Kate Spade to name just a few. A tote is a must have fashion accessory. Perfect for carrying lunch, gym clothes, books/magazines, your nook or iPad, water bottle, heck any and everything can go in your tote, and makes the perfect carry-on when traveling. The auction closes on March 25th so you still have time to put your bid in for a unique tote bag! And, you can get this fashionable tote for just $50.
