Jet Set Travel Logo tote

Believe me when I tell you that there is nothing like a Louis Vuitton handbag.  They are timeless, classy, and of the best quality.  I can truly tell you that they are worth the splurge, but for those of you who aren't ready to make the $850 leap, check out this similar style from Michael Kors.  (I know, MK again!  As one of my favorite more affordable designers, you will see me reference him quite a lot on here!)  These bags share nearly the same color scheme as well as structure.  The bag is called the "Jet Set Travel Logo" tote and can be yours for a mere $248!  Purchase this fab find at Macy's or direct from Michael Kors.

Hamilton Large tote

The Hermes Birkin bag is one of the most iconic handbags known to man (or woman) kind.    But, if a $9,000 (to $34,000 depending on the material) handbag isn't in your budget, why not treat yourself to the chic Hamilton Large Tote by Michael Kors?  This bag is available in a wide range of color options, for both leather and hardware.  Starting at just $348, this trendy bag is a steal!  You can get your hands on one at Nordstrom or direct from Michael Kors.
