- Staci from HandbagReport.com

I am a strong believer in that you don’t have to spend a lot to look fabulous! While most of us rely on magazines to learn the new trends of the season, we can also use it as inspiration to know what to shop for in order to stay current.  In today’s economy, it’s more practical to splurge less and shop the hot trends at affordable prices.  Allow me to show you how to get the designer looks for less without compromising your style.

Bag It: Berkeley Satchel by Big Buddha October 2nd, 2009 By

Berkeley Satchel by Big Buddha, $85

Berkeley Satchel by Big Buddha, $85

Perhaps you’ve noticed that with the downturn in the economy, we’re experiencing an upturn in fun and funky fashions. Doesn’t it stand to reason that with so much gloom, we should find ways to add some playful pizazz back into our lives?

That seems to be exactly what designers are coaxing us to do this fall. So get ready to turn that frown upside down with handbags that sparkle, shine, stand out, get grommet-ed and into the groove.

Isn’t this Big Buddha Berkeley Satchel all grommeted, studded, tasseled, rocker-girl goodness? It’s a little hard-edged, a little bit hippie, and really fun – and it’s also vegan with 100% synthetic materials!
