Win a Bag Share!

untitled-1

When I lived in the city, I didn’t need my car every day… so when it died, I didn’t get a new one, I joined zipcar. And for my life it worked out even better than having my own car. When I first heard about Bag, Borrow or Steal (now Avelle) back in the days when fancy bags were the hot thing, and shoes, well… ballet flats? Yeah, I miss those. For those of us who go through bags… or want one for that event… you know wedding season is coming up,  bag share isn’t a bad idea. Granted I’m still living in my SwanDiamondRose tote.. and I dont’ really go out all that much, maybe in my alternate life as a fabulista.

Avelle, also has a great outlet of their used inventory, I was able to find this huge Lambertson Truex patent leather hobo for 60% off.. man, if I took that to fashion week, I’d be able to fit both my laptops, my heels, makeup, both my cameras, notepad, a change of clothes, random stuff, an umbrella and maybe a couple of paperback books. Oddly enough, that’s not far off from what I normally carry. My great hope is they’ll have handbags with trolleys one day. Heck, school kids have trolleys on backpacks now. Spoiled kids.
