MAMA'S GOT A BRAND NEW BAG

It's been a long and eventful birthday month. There are so many of my friends that have May birthday's, the month turns into a long party ending with a Memorial Day bang. For my birthday, among a few other things I treated myself to a new bag. Yeah me!



This bag is stylish and captures the latest trend in shine made from Italian Patent Leather. I was looking for a bag that I could wear everyday. It needed to be stylish but could also function well for my market appointments where I need to carry my binders of line sheets. This bag was it, and get this, it's convertable. The bag can be closed to a Hobo and then expand for when you need to pack a few extra things for a long evening. (wink, wink)

I love this bag. It's been a long time since I've fallen in love and it felt like the first time. The bag is by Kooba. Since a lot people outside of the fashion world have never heard of the brand I will give you a short background.

Kooba is the answer to every woman's desire for a handbag with distinctive characteristics and features that reflect her mood. Known for their signature shapes, dominant hardware, and vast color range, Kooba is about creating individual style, and celebrities from the streets of New York City to the Hollywood Hills have heard the call of the modern, vintage-inspired leathers and deep colors. These bags work with every style and will definitely get you noticed.

Two "IT" girls carry the coveted bag.
Others who have been spotted with the bag include La La Lindsey, SJP, Eva Longoria and many more.

NEW LOOK FOR SPIDEY

5 days after its May 4th release, I went to see Spiderman 3 yesterday afternoon. Firstly, I want to say that I love movies that take me back to my childhood comic book days. I used to want to do anything my older male cousin did, so because he had a comic book collection I had to have a one too. Anyway, back to the review, I thought Kirsten Dunst looked, not so hot and that Spiderman cried too much. It seemed like every 10 minutes of the 2 hour saga there were man tears. Now, on to what we really care about, I loved Spidey’s new fashion statement.

The black in the movie represented the evil vengeful side of the usually fair and noble super hero. It made him uncharacteristically cocky, bull headed, aggressive, and unexpectedly a lot of fun. Black happens to the signature color of one of best friends (shout out to Nina) and so many other New Yorkers. For those of you who want to step into the dark side here are a few Spiderman inspired wardrobe items.
