Linea Pelle Purse Light Key Chain

Big bags are extremely popular right now and its seems that many people feel “the bigger the better”. Personally, I am not a big bag kind of girl. But I do like to carry a large tote when appropriate. So what’s not to like about a big bag? They can carry a lot of stuff and they can really make a statement with just about any outfit. But I think most ladies will agree with me when I say “it sure is dark in there”. Seriously, though. How annoying is it when you’re looking for something inside your bag and you can’t see a thing in there? I imagine this would be especially true in situations when the lighting is limited.Now I’ve seen handbags that come with a little light inside them. But you know what? I wouldn’t buy a bag just because it had a light inside! I would actually have to like the bag in question and to this day have never come across one that appeals to me. So I was thinking, what if there was a light that you could switch from one bag to another? Introducing the Linea Pelle Purse Light Key Chain. Sure, there are other flashlight key chains out there. But what I like about this one is that it comes with clip instead of a key ring. My idea was to clip it onto the ring found inside many bags these days… and ta-da! Instant illumination inside your bag! And the best part is they come in a variety of colors, so you may even be able to match one to your bag!The Linea Pelle Purse Light Key Chain is currently available in Black, Fuchsia, Orange, Silver, or White. It is constructed of fine Italian leather and it retails for only $30! Find it at Linea Pelle Collection.The Chat: Linea Pelle Light Key Chain!

Lily Allen (Beach) Style: Yves Saint Laurent Muse Two

I am a huge fan of Yves Saint Laurent. Like huge. And when I heard about the YSL handbag sample sale, my jaw dropped. Anytime there’s a designer handbag sample sale, especially when the prices are expected to reach up to 70% off, I just have to stop everything and check it out.The items at the sale are going to be a complete surprise until the doors open tomorrow, Thursday August 20th at 8: am PST / 11: am EST.They have no sneak peak images or video preview on their site.If you need an invite to BeyondtheRack sample sale.

Oh how I anticipate my summer vacation this year! Guess who’s the lucky pop singer spotted vacationing in St. Tropez with her friend/supermodel Kate Moss + fam.? It’s the one and only Lily Allen. I adore her extra cute beach accessories of red wafer sunnies and pink jelly slip-on’s Lily was spotted wearing. But of course the mother of all accessories Lily took out to the beach was her luxurious Muse Two bag by Yves Saint Laurent. This boxy tote has always been my favorite Muse style, and the more I see it, the more I adore it. Carry this slouchy tote bag on the shoulder by means of the oversized top handle or simply on the crook of the arm just like Lily. I’d most definitely dress this bag up, but as Lily demonstrates, carrying the Muse Two with beach wear doesn’t look half bad. Come to think of it, this puts my beach tote to shame.A large front flap, gold toned hardware, and smooth suede lining are a few of my favorites found on this Muse. If you’re in seek of Lily’s beach bag of choice, you can find the Road Grey version marked down 20% off through: BlueflyImage: SplashNewsThe Chat: Lily Allen Loves YSL!

Fendi Skunk Fur Peekaboo Roll Bag

Anyone up for a skunk fur leather bag? Umm… no thank you. I apologize to any fans of this particular bag, but I’m morbidly shocked at how horrid this handbag is. Did the House of Fendi seriously have to ‘kill’ (no pun intended) the classic look of its latest Peekaboo tote by throwing on a pelt of skunk fur onto this bag? If they sought to create a classy rich leather bag adored in an exotic choice of fur, I say they failed miserably. Besides the not so attractive furry bag appearance, I can’t decide if I dislike this bag for the fact that’s it’s sporting a dead skunk on it or because it’s made out of skunk! Right off the bat, there’s an unattractive feeling towards this bag filled with reminders of how bad skunks really do smell. I say Fendi should leave the rodents to American Folk leader Davy Crockett to wear, as he was possibly the only person who could have pulled this look off.I can honestly say that for once, anti-fur and fur industry supporters unite and agree that this Fendi piece sure does stink!Discover the rest of the F/W 09’ Fendi collection at: Saks Fifth AvenueThe Chat: Fendi Peekaboo!
