Belts and Bags for Fall

I'm looking through all  of the fall fashion emails that I've been receiving.  We've known that belts are the uber rage this season; here are a few to take a look at.  A belt over a dress or sweater provides a quick update to our fall wardrobes, along with a cute bag in purples, black, green...


Clockwise from top, starting with purple:


Via Spiga, $90


Calvin Klein, $36


Via Spiga, $85


Loft, $29.50


White House Black Market, $58


Ann Taylor, $55


Coldwater Creek, $49.50


J.Crew, $32.50

Rampage satchels



Banana Republic Tote

I received my Iman bags that I had ordered; its like Christmas when these orders arrive!  They are cute, great hunter green color, but they are HUGE!  I mean I could almost fit into the duffle!  I wanted the duffle for my laptop, but I think building security will want check the bag each day if I bring it into the office!  The other bag is more workable but it is not structured and falls over.  So I'm in a dilemm as far as shall I keep them or send them back.  I found a great rolling laptop bag from LL Bean, I may just get that one, either the red or green (something other than black?!)..these two would make a great travel pair, and the leather is soooo soft!  I've had them for a couple of days and have to decide quickly!


LL Bean options...

I'm with you Princess! I think we just feel deprived, right? And so we have to make up for our lack of time to shop! (that's my excuse ;-)

HB&HB, I am sooooo thankful for my wonderful followers! It never occured to me to add that follower widget until a very perceptive reader mentioned it to me. (big thank you to her! ;-) (Sadly, I can't actually see it on the computer I normally work-on, but I can see it on my laptop and it is just wonderful seeing everyone!)

Hi Miss Neira, oooh you are so right about Banana. I have the cutest black one, I'm going to have to included it in a post. My only problem is that I need one with wheels because my lap top is HUGE and heavy...Thank you for you suggestions because I can use their other bags for books ;-)
