I have been on the look out for a cute bag for a night out, meeting up with friends for a meal or to roam around town with for ages.  I have been on a bit of a purse/bag hiatus for a while.  Thanks to meeting with my financial planner who has been encouraging me to save money.

Enter the Mark’s Denver Hayes Jackyln Cross Body Bag.  In Surf Blue, this bag has hootspa!  Not only is it sleek but it looks like leather!  It’s light, durable, no fuss, stylish, versatile for casual to more dressy outfits, perfect to wear with your parka as a lead up to the spring.  I love the buckle on the cross body strap, the white stitching on the bag and the bag strap, the zipper pockets on the outside of the bag for your keys and lip gloss and inside for money and coins.  The bag is deep and of a posh quality.

The cute button front adds a clean luxurious note to this piece.  It would be cool to dazzle your girls with a bag from Zara and Coach this season.  Honestly, yawn.  Everyone has them and I like to change it up.  Mixing simple, with vintage and big box with the unexpected.  For $24.99 it will make your credit card and investment planner in your life happy.  For you – get ready for Mark’s they are changing the game in women’s accessories and handbags.  It maybe worth keeping an eye on their website and shops when updating your spring wardrobe.

Lastly, I had to hunt this bag down even though it just popped into stores on Feb 1st, 2013.  Get the Mark’s Denver Hayes Jaclyn Cross Body Bag‏ fast before it’s gone.  ;)

So I ended up returning that CK Chelsea Drawstring Bag to Winners.  I don’t know, that $120 was just too much.  So instead I found this lil beaut on www.chapters.ca on their clearance link.  I only ended up paying $26 for it out of my own pocket as I had gift cards from Melissa and Fritz!  ;)   I love it when that happens.  It pays to hoard gift cards my friends.  Thank you Melissa and Fritz! xo

 
This bag will be great for lugging my work gear and the like around.  For $26 I don’t mind kicking it around and plus it looks cool/cute.  A classic bag.
 
Usually, I’m not a huge fan of Roots but this one is sweet.  Its not too homely and not too mumsy.  I know, I know.  ;)
