Rebecca Minkoff

Personally, I think Valentine’s Day is stupid and I try to ignore it as much as I can. On the other side though, any excuse that lets me do some imaginary outfit shopping at Shopbop is more than welcome, so below you can see my favorite picks. Let me know what you think of V-Day, whether you celebrate it or not and most importantly, what you’re going to wear to impress your Valentine (assuming you do celebrate this day, of course).

The Rebecca Minkoff Boyfriend Crossbody Bag is very in right now, as it is the It bag making its appearance among quite a few celebrities. The hardware inspired embellishments along with the chained strap add a touch of masculinity but in a feminine way. It’s the perfect size if you’re on the go, or it can be simultaneously transformed into a clutch for a night out of town look. I especially love the military green color Shenae Grimes and Ashley Greene are sporting, too bad it’s $295.

This is a great alternative to the Rebecca Minkoff bag as it is practically identical to it but also very much budget-friendly. The Steve Madden “Brocks” handbag incorporates the same idea of masculinity in a chic way. It is available in scarlet red, black and light blue.

My Shopbop Wish List for January 2012

by Irina on January 24, 2012

So this is it, my first Shopbop wish list in the new year. This time I tried to break out of my comfort zone with a few of the items I picked, i.e. the white structured blazer or the floral print jacket. Blazers, I use to think, tend to look a little boxy on me and I’m also very sensitive to anything printed and often shy away from prints on non-dress items, but this one by Rebecca Minkoff I found to be quite charming. What do you think? What’s your favorite item from the list below? Let me know.

It’s lust at first sight! I love the color and the gold hardware on this Rebecca Minkoff Morning After Bag! I suppose us SD girls share similar taste! Rebecca Minkoff was also born and raised in San Diego, CA and you won’t catch not one celebrity not sporting this super fab bag! The Morning After Bag is the perfect size and it essentially comes in any color your heart desires! Priced at $525 it’s not the most priciest bag I’ve ever seen, but if you want something a little more affordable here is a second option…

ASOS Boxy ’70s Bowler

The ASOS Boxy ’70s Bowler bag will give you the same look and it’s only priced at $60.34! I actually love the green coloring on the bag and the gold studs are a nice touch!

Don’t you just love a BHB? What’s a BHB, you ask? Um, hello… a Big Honkin’ Bag, of course! Nothin’ better, I tell you. Even if I only ever fill my BHBs to 1/4 full, I like the idea that I have lots of room when I need it. And this studly Supernova Stud Devote Handbag by Rebecca Minkoff fits the bill perfectly. The only thing about this big bag that doesn’t work for me is the price tag. But never mind that anyway. It’s totally sold out.

Steve Madden “BHotshot” Studded Hobo

If you have a supernova-sized crush on the Stud above, let me direct your attention to the “BHotshot” Studded Hobo by Steve Madden. Same shape, same buckles, same golden studs to reflect all those green-eyed stares as you waltz down the street with it on your arm. All for under a hundred bucks.
