i’ve been slacking, you guys! and no one said anything! since i’ve missed about a month of “a bag a week,” it is back and, i swear, it’ll never leave you again. this edition features a cult classic, the foley & corinna mid-city tote in a brand-spanking-new shade of seafoam. though the company recently closed its lower east side boutique, i have a feeling that there are big things in f & c’s future. what’s inside my bag?

  • fashion week press pass, ray-bans, fake zicam
  • assorted nars lip products (because, duh)
  • b. makowsky wallet c/o qvc
  • new york times article about tumblr c/o father zucker

you asked for the navy foley & corinna disco city tote as this week’s “a bag a week,” and here it is, in its full glory, crammed full of all my crap. and this isn’t just your average convertible clutch; it stirred up a lot of controversy when i first bought it. inside:

  • id card, keys, ipod
  • hayden-harnett coin purse
  • myfavoritenecklaceinthewholeworld
  • maybelline baby lips in “cherry me”

mother nature’s got the blues this morning, what with the rain and gray sky and all, so i think this week should be all about navy bags for “a bag a week.” what do y’all think? (in my head, i’m hearing a resounding, “yes, sara! great idea! your hair looks great today!”) if you’re on-board, pick your favorite:

  • the foley + corinna disco tote?
  • the navy victoria leather bag co. “teardrop”?

okay, so now that we’re back on track, i can reveal the contents of my purse on the proper day (wednesday. because that’s what i reveal the contents of the week’s bag.):

  • dunkin donuts coupons, nyc restaurant week guide
  • a little gift from chloe & isabel
  • b. makowsky wallet c/o qvc
  • ipod touch, tamagotchi
  • new obsession: m.a.c. slimshine lipstick in “prudeaux”

bag shown: bally leather duffle. (similar, similar, similar)

i’ve been slacking on the “a bag a week“s. i apologize. but not to worry, despite the delay, we will be moving forth as planned, which means that you get the opportunity to vote on which purse i’ll be toting around this week. so, which will it be:

  • the bally duffle (as seen in week 1)?
  • or katherine kwei’s “lulu” tote?

you picked it…again. check back on wednesday to see what’s inside.

another week, another “a bag a week.” since the season has been mild thus far (no snow! i love snow.), i thought i’d brighten it up with some neon. why not take a trend usually worn in the warmer months and try it out right now? what’s your pick:

  • the yellow rebecca minkoff?
  • the orange cambridge satchel (as seen here)?

since i skipped the last edition of “a bag a week,” i didn’t want to leave you hanging any longer: i’ve been using the same satchel for the past two weeks. this little olivia harris number became my latest obsession after i snagged it at the gryson sample sale for a fraction of its original cost; initially, it had been missing a front closure, but the lovely ladies at gryson fixed it within a week. here’s what it’s been carrying:

  • wool fingerless gloves c/o object mythology
  • nook,  ray-bans, dunkin donuts coupons
  • sephora ultra shine lip gloss in “cherry red”
  • b.makowsky wallet c/o qvc

after a one-week hiatus, “a bag a week” is back and better than ever…okay, well, it’s just back. this week is being sponsored by one of my favorite burgeoning leather brands, hare + hart. started in 2009 by college buddies emily harrison and hennie engelhardt, hare + hart has developed into a label that supplies products made in argentina by argentine craftsmen using argentine leather.

disclosure: the bag shown was gifted in exchange for a week of sponsorship.
