A Rebecca Minkoff Interview

[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.]

Since I paid my last MasterCard bill, I’ve decided that I need to buckle down and budget shop with a little more effort. I love my high-end purses, but surprisingly, many middle-end stores churn out wonderful bags at a fraction of the designer cost. One shop that I can always count on to keep on top of trends at an affordable price is Aldo. I was browsing their sale the other day (which is always full of great finds!) and stumbled upon the beautiful Machon.

Color-blocking is a huge trend for Summer and you can test out the waters with a safer combo of off-white and black synthetic with the Machon. The pattern on this purse is quite striking and reminds me, both in shape and design, of the Rebecca Minkoff Bombe M.A.B., but at a fraction of the price. It’s a medium-sized satchel, with one set of handles that rest comfortably on your arm or on your shoulder. The size will perfectly fit all your essentials, plus a notebook or a camera, making it a great everyday purse, whether you’re heading to class or out sightseeing. The slight sheen of the synthetic will also allow you to transition this purse both into fall and evening! Read More »

Retailers are banding together to help support disaster relief efforts in Japan after a deadly earthquake ravaged the country and a resulting tsunami wiped away entire towns. Not only is the country’s infrastructure in shambles, but one of their nuclear power plants is on verge of a nuclear meltdown. Things are bad. But you can help! And you can do so from the comfort of your warm dorm room as you snuggle in sweats. So what are you waiting for? Start shopping now to raise money for Japanese relief efforts.

Here’s a list of a few websites and stores you can visit to help make a difference:

Every girl needs a good purse. Whether you’re going for groceries or running from class to class, they are simply essential for holding all your, uh, essentials. Now, clutches and tiny crossbody bags are convenient when you don’t have much to carry, but what about when you’re lugging around textbooks? Every college girl understands the challenge that is finding a chic and stylish purse that also fits all your junk.

That’s where the Rebecca Minkoff ‘Nikki’ comes in.

Rebecca began designing purses in 2005 after a successful run in the indie apparel world. Her bags caught on like wildfire (thanks to her creatively designed/named ‘Morning After Bag’) and are now among the most coveted out there. Purse afficianados (me!) wait in suspense for the newest Minkoff line every season. However, Rebecca also knows what her fans want and keeps her classics in rotation, adding new, fun colors every season.

The Nikki is part of this Classic line and rightly so. It’s a hobo-style that rebeccaminkoff.com say is “As slouchy as your Sunday jeans and as vibrant as the smile on your face when you carry it.” How cute is that?! (I know, I have a total purse crush on the entire Rebecca Minkoff team!) They all sport the buckle hardware on both sides, and you can also get styles with linear or circular studs, adding a touch of rocker chic to the mix. Read More »

You pulled an all-nighter yesterday, and I’m not talking about the studying kind, and now it’s time for that dreaded walk of shame back to your dorm room. You managed to find your bra, but your low-slung jeans and barely-visible top couldn’t look more obvious as you wobble in your heels across the quad, and the eye makeup that looked smoky last night now looks like a finger painting. You knew this might happen, but short of bringing your backpack filled with your overnight kit to a bar, you didn’t have a choice.

Now, thanks to handbag designers like Rebecca Minkoff, you don’t have to choose between looking chic the night before or the morning after, instead, you can be prepared like a boy scout while not losing your mystique.

Rebecca Minkoff’s Morning After Bag was seen on the arm of Lindsay Lohan, a girl who takes her walk of shame not just watched by the morning joggers, but by tens of paparazzi and millions of tabloid readers. The bag comes in black mesh and black patent or tangerine (a favorite of Vanessa Hudgens) and is roomy enough for a change of shirt, face wash, maybe even a breathalyzer. $595.

For a more affordable option, check out the Urban Expressions Peterson Tote. The sleekly structured bag has front pleating, braided handles, and gold-toned hardware accents. The bag comes in tan, black, and brown, and at only $58 (currently on sale for $32), you can buy two or all three to match different outfits. Read More »
