Woven Bag Pick from ShoeDazzle

Have you taken a peek at your ShoeDazzle showroom already? I’ve taken a look at mine and I love the selection of shoes, handbags and jewelries that I got this month.

When it comes to the handbag recommendations that I received, I’m digging majority of them and this woven number is one of my favorites.

It’s called the Lagos, and what makes it unique from the other woven bags out there is that the woven portion isn’t on the body of the handbag, but on the handles. Its handles are actually made of woven chain and faux-leather straps—utterly stylish, isn’t it? The chain and leather are so perfect together and fit each other to a T that they look seamless. I love the shapely form and the pleats that make it so feminine. And as you can see on the photo below, it also has a roomy interior and plenty of pockets.

Aside from the woven straps, it also sports detachable crossbody straps for that easier wear.

What do you think? Do you love it, too? Of course it goes without saying that I love its affordable price as well—it retails for only $39.95!

So, how about you? What handbags do you have in your ShoeDazzle selection this month?

I have to admit that it was love at first sight for me when I first laid my eyes on this gorgeous tote from Henry Beguelin—the Henry Beguelin Alligator-Embossed Pleated Tote:

Do you love it, too? It is just so EXQUISITE! It is elegent, sexy and flirty. The brown alligator-embossed leather is beautiful and luxurious, while the woven top handles provide a touch of additional lovely texture. The buckled straps that create a gathered top keep it edgy and stylish, too. And if you look closely, it actually also sports stitching details that are cute additions as well. I must admit that I’m not really fond of hanging charms in bags, but the simple, yet sweet, hanging stick figure logo charm on this one is quite charming, and I like it.

This Henry Beguelin Alligator-Embossed Pleated Tote is boho-inspired and reminiscent of the very popular Fendi Spy bag that I love, too.

Spring is set to enter anytime soon and this Henry Beguelin Alligator-Embossed Pleated Tote is just perfect to keep you looking on-trend this spring. Pair it with this lovely bohemian dress from Chloe to give off that boho-chic vibe.

Dress: Chloe Floral-Print Bohemian Dress, $670.00

Or, mix it with this casual ensemble for that casual boho style:

Blouse: Joie Renny Cotton Top, $198.00; Pants: Joie Clarissa Cargo Pants, $218.00

The Henry Beguelin Alligator-Embossed Pleated Tote is available at Neiman Marcus for $1,240.00. All the apparel are available at Neiman Marcus as well.
