[Every girl needs a good purse (or 12). Whether you’re going for groceries or running from class to class, they are simply essential for holding all your, uh, essentials. Each week, I’m going to show you a fashionable, yet functional purse for the college crowd and let you know why you absolutely need it! I apologize ahead of time to your bank account.]
Now that it is officially August, I’m finding myself searching for transition pieces and that includes purses. Long gone are the days of straw totes; now I’m looking for heavier bags, ones that preferably fit my notebooks and textbooks! Even though I live about 6 hours away from the nearest location, I always try to hit up H&M for a big back to school splurge before September. Even though I only own one purse from them (shocking!) I took a careful look through their accessory section and came up with this little gem!
