Rebecca Minkoff Face-off: The Hudson Bag

RM_hudson

Yesterday, I was hit with the sudden urge to buy a new handbag and kind of instantly settled on a Rebecca Minkoff Hudson bag. However, while perusing for a bag on ShopBop.com, I was hit with a unexpected dilemma: Which color. When I first decided I wanted the Hudson, it was because I was drawn to the classic allure of the navy, which is exclusive to ShopBop.com. However, just when I was about to click the “add to bag” button, I was stopped dead in my internet tracks  and became hypnotized by the neon yellow version. Torn.

The neon yellow, which has become my new favorite neon color and dethroned neon pink after almost two decades, is perfect for spring and summer and would be the perfect unexpected punch of color paired with soft colors of spring and all the denim jackets that I’ve acquired over the past year. However, the navy is classic, chic, timeless, and effortlessly perfect to any handbag wardrobe.

So, I eventually had to text my sister for her opinion. After numerous texts that include ideas, images, and links we both agreed on a color and it’s currently on the way to me right now and will be here at my desk before the end of business day tomorrow.

Which color do you think I picked: forever classic navy or forever fun neon yellow? Check back Friday to find out or, if you follow me on Instagram or like Stained Couture on Facebook, you probably will find out tomorrow!

LUST-HAVE LIST: June 2012

Wow, it’s June. I’m already over graduations, weddings, and baby showers. Although my sister is due July 2nd, I have a feeling that my little booger of a new nephew, Ethan, will make his arrival before June is over and I can’t wait to greet my first nephew! *doing the cabbage patch in my computer chair*

So, although I’m a little late with the list of things I’m lusting for in June, it’s better late than never. Let’s roll that beautiful lust-list now!

  1. Special Edition T-Shirt, $19.90, Zara – It’s t-shirt season and the lighter the better, beit color and/or weight. I’m loving this tee from Zara. Actually, I’m loving everything about this tee, from the casual chicness, the light neon hue, and especially the high/low style that’s everywhere on dresses and skirts.
  2. ROSEGOLD Pana T-Strap Sandal, $158, ShopBop.com – Will there every be a season in which I don’t fawn over a cork shoe? While I wait and ponder the answer to that question, take a look at this wonderful at this cork covered sandal. The great thing about cork shoes is that they can go with so many things, because of their natural and neutral color. Possibilities are endless, my loves!
  3. Ojan Rare Blend Oil Total Hair Therapy, $35, Sephora – My hair routine is 2weeks curly and then one week straight. This has been helping my hair get stronger WHILE keep getting my natural curl pattern back after some unfortunate and unwanted heat damage. However, with curls comes dryness and oils have been my best friend in this routine of mine. I would love to try out this Ojan hair oil. I’ve tried one in the past and it was amazing, because it provided moisture and lovely light scent. It would be nice to have a soft, moistured, and bouncy tresses with a hint of a tropical breeze.
  4. Biennial Handbag, $348, J. Crew – A classic handbag with multiple color options can be hard to come by, but leave it to J. Crew to make that search a little easier with their Biennial bag. The bag is a pebble leather bag with a simple silhouette, but has multiple sleek compartments. It’s work week and weekend friendly!
  5. Sunglasses Case, $75, Rebecca Minkoff – Currently, I have 3 different pair of sunglasses swimming around in my purse all wishing that their owner would buy them a new pouch to protect them from the number of things that could scratch up their shiny exterior. I’m sure they would love to sleep in this case from Rebecca Minkoff. Although Minkoff is more known for her lovely bags, see makes and offers some cute and fun small leather goods, including the this case. Although it’s only available in nude and yellow, I wish and hope she’s planning to introduce some more colors that could work with the bright colors of summer.

Swooning for…Rebecca Minkoff’s Woven Satchel

I need a new chic brown bag that’s appropriate for everyday as well as for running around on the weekend for errands. Rebecca Minkoff’s Perf Weave Lyric satchel is pretty close to the perfection I’m looking for in a new brown bag for spring.

The bag is part of Minkoff’s new In Stitches collection that features stitched and/or fringe details. The collection is currently available at RebeccaMinkoff.com

I want them ALL!

Have you seen Rebecca Minkoff’s spring/summer 2012 shoes?! They look amazing and so perfect for spring and summer. I really fancy the neon/natural tribal print Baha wrap sandals. The colorblocking, the neon and coral options, and the different style options make this almost the epitome of a spring and summer shoe wardrobe for you! Go look  at the other styles and color options for the shoes above and tell me what you think.

Seriously, I want those Baha sandals!
