Colorful Shopper Bags on Sale at Mango

I don't know about you but I love big bags!

I do like carrying lots of stuff inside my bag eventhough I'm not sure if I'm going to use all of them when I go out. Making sure that I have lots of tissue, my medicines, powder, extra foldable shopping bag, umbrella, phone, digi-cam and some of my kikay stuff. I guess I have my whole closet (lol) inside my bag that I carry esp. when I go to the city or long distance traveling. You'd not see me without a bag even when I go to the grocery or just going to withdraw some cash at the ATM, this time smaller bag of course is necessary.

Since I love to carry big bags, a shopper bag fits my bag style. As you can see, a shopper bag has a wide mouth or opening 2 handles for comfort. The opening can either have   magnetic button fastening or a zipper opening . I'd prefer the latter as it can be more secure when carrying.

These types of bags are spacious and light weight depending on the material used. But mostly soft leather, faux leather, canvass, cotton and nylon materials are used.

Would really love to have this studded shopper bag that costs Php1,950.00. The only thing that's hindering me from buying this is that it has no zipper fastening on top that makes it not secure (for me) when I go to the malls. You know there are many pickpockets in the metro so carrying this would mean an invitation for them to pickpocket. Yay! Also, I don't want to be conscious  checking my bag all the time if my wallet or phone are still inside because it has no zipper but some bags bellow have zippers though.

3 Must Have’s When Going to a Polo Match

Polo is a high speed team sport involving players on horseback striking a ball toward the opposing team's goal. Although the sport's exact origin is unknown, polo has enjoyed a successful history with the first recorded tournament held in 600 BC. Fortunately, for people that want to experience what a polo match is like today, here are 3 must haves when attending:

1. Hat


If you are attending a polo match on a bright and sunny day, having a hat handy will help protect your scalp, eyes, and face. Fortunately, there are plenty of styles and colors available to help you find the perfect hat to fit your preference. However, it may be beneficial to avoid oversized hats that can potentially block other people's view of the playing field.

Since polo matches are held outside, it is important that you dress for any type of weather to ensure that you are comfortable and healthy. The styles you see will vary since some people attend matches in jeans while others focus on high fashion. However, if you are attending a tournament or charity event, you should dress up appropriately.

2. Bag


For polo players, choosing the right bag is a must for carrying their gear around in comfort. In fact, just some of the types of bags available include:

• Polo mallet bags


• Polo boots bags


• Polo helmet bags


• Polo team bags


• Polo carry-all bags

Fortunately, you don't need to be a polo player to enjoy polo gear bag. For example, a La Martina bag is a popular accessory for spectators because of its functional design. Whether you want to use it as an oversized purse to a polo match or a gear bag for another sport, polo gear bags are handy.

It should be noted that most polo clubs open the matches for public viewing on weekends. All you need to do to enjoy a match is bring a lawn chair and pack your gear bag with a blanket. To ensure that you are even more comfortable, be sure to pack refreshments and snacks. Yet, always dispose of your trash properly to be respectful toward the environment and people around you.

 3. Binoculars

Since polo matches are fast and played on large fields, it can be difficult to keep up with the action. Whenever possible, you should focus your efforts on watching the ball and players clustered around it. Unfortunately, if you are seated on the opposite end of the field away from the action, it can be difficult to see what's going on.

To keep up with the action at a polo match, you should bring along a pair of binoculars. Although you can buy binoculars for around $15 or so, they may not be of the best quality. Higher quality binoculars typically fall anywhere between $30 to $2,500.

Going to a polo match can be a great way to spend the day out. With these 3 must haves, you can make the most of the experience and develop a passion for the sport with less stress.

Adam Jenson is a polo player. He frequently writes about how to be properly equipped for a polo match on sport blogs.

Handbag Color Trends Sure to Keep You Looking Hot Year Round

One Bag for Every Season
A killer pair of shoes, a go-to little black dress, jeans that hug your curves perfectly – and that perfect bag that goes with everything – fashion basics form the staple of your wardrobe. Getting the right handbag is especially important, since you’ll probably be carrying it every day.  After all, once you set your bag up the way you want it, why would you want to go through the hassle of trying to fit everything into a new handbag?

The right handbag for you will depend on several factors – there is no “one size fits all ” handbag for every woman. Of course, your budget will be a major factor. Your personal style, location and how you intend to use the handbag will also impact your decision.


A Classic Black Clutch
Are you a fan of timeless classics? Is your wardrobe filled with straight skirts, white silk blouses, and graduated pearls? A classic black clutch may be just the right choice to carry you from work to evening. The clutch is a perfect match for your business-worthy black or gray suit, but dresses up to look just-right with your sexy LBD.  If you carry a briefcase or business bag, your clutch slips into the bag to be out of the way while remaining readily accessible.

A Bold, Red Cross-Body Bag
You are fashion forward. You love all the latest trends but you have your own unique look.  No ordinary “goes with everything” handbag will be adequate for you. A bold cross-body bag in a primary color like red or sunny yellow is an ideal choice. Even if the handbag doesn’t “match” every outfit in your wardrobe, it will broadcast your image as a trend-spotter and a trend setter.

Neutral Black or Brown Leather Mid-Size Bag
If your budget is limited, a brown or black leather mid-size bag allows you to have one bag that truly does look good with nearly every outfit. Invest in the best quality leather and workmanship that you can afford; spending a few dollars now will save you money in  the long run, because the bag  will continue to look great for years to come.

A Multi-Tasking Tote
Are you a practical, no-nonsense type? If your wardrobe is filled with jeans, flats, sweaters, t-shirts and no-fuss skirts, perhaps the right handbag for you is not a handbag at all.  A utilitarian backpack is great if you are a student, but not so great for the office or for an evening out. Why not try a multi-tasking tote, either in leather or canvas?  The look fits well with your no-nonsense style, but can also be dressed up for those occasions when you want to look a bit more polished.

A Spare Bag
Once you find that just-right bag, you may consider purchasing two at the same time, if your budget will allow it. Sometimes manufacturers discontinue certain styles. Or you may have a mishap that causes damage to the bag.  If you’ve purchased a second bag, you can transfer the contents from your worn or damaged bag to your new bag with a minimum of fuss.

What does a Handbag Say about You?

When you step outside, workers and local residents will judge you based on your overall appearance; your shoes, your attitude, your walk and your lipstick choice. However, a true fashionista in touch with their stylish side will judge you based on your handbag choice. After all, a women’s handbag is a true reflection of its wearer and the choice welcomes their personality to shine through. So what message is your current handbag sending out to the world? You’ll be surprised.

When one defines their own style, there are many parameters that need to be considered. Think of a handbag’s colour, texture, shape, size, material and brand. Clearly, not everyone can afford a luxurious handbag bought from a glamorous designer boutique; unless they’re willing to sacrifice some of their essential daily living expenses. That’s why designer bags for the Ivy League are mostly out of reach for many. And that’s okay, because there is a plethora of just as stylish hang bags available on the market for every lady. Shop for handbags online on EziBuy and you’re bound to find something that truly reflects your own sense of self. The key is to find a healthy balance between functionality and style.

There are some people who have a whole wardrobe full of handbags for every occasion. This is not practical; it becomes too labour intensive to keep switching your belongings over every time you go out. So think about your ideal bag’s size. Are you somebody who carries around the works with you – from back-up lipstick to perfume and chewing gum? Or would you prefer something less cluttered and lighter to just hold the essentials? A women’s handbag size can make you appear to be a cluttered or minimal organised lady. Consider a handbag with pockets to hideaway extra essentials.


Next is colour choice. A colour can make or break an outfit. Neutral coloured handbags are quite functional and will complement most outfits. And you don’t always have to sacrifice style. Other people opt for loud, bright colours to make a fashion statement and stand out from the crowd. How important is this to you?

Think about handbag strap widths and all the other accessories such as beads, embroidered designs, multi-colours and other straps to enhance a bag. Do you need all of the bells and whistles, or is a clean and simple look more your?

It’s important that you find the right bag that truly sums up your personality and style. A bag that fits your lifestyle and needs will allow you to glow. Remember, the actual contents inside your handbag are just as important as the handbag itself. Hidden prying eyes of the secret items you carry around with you every day also reflect your individuality.

Genuine Leather Bags: Quality That Lasts a Lifetime

If you know about quality, style and durability on bags, there’s no doubt that you’d prefer leather as oppose to synthetic and other materials. Leather has been very popular material used in bags, shoes and other accessory making as they are very versatile and durable. However, there are different grades of leather that you can choose but the highest quality full grain leather is the best investment that you can have.

Investing in quality leather bags not only can give value to your hard earned money but it will also last for more than 10 years and you can even pass on to next generation especially if you have taken extra care on those bags. The quality of craftsmanship is excellent plus the hardware and stitching are sure made to its perfection. True quality leather ages in time thus making it worth investing in.

Lately, I’ve been trying to buy some leather bags for myself as I am already fed up buying those faux leather and synthetic bags that easily rips or show signs of scratches after only few uses. Though it may mean that I need to pay more than what I am used to but the quality is worth it in the long run. I have few leather bags now in my closet and I’m pretty sure that I can use them over and over again for many years.

I’ve always been in the lookout for stores that sell quality leather bags and SaddlebackLeather.com is worth taking a peak. With all the quality fine leather goods that they sell in their store, Saddleback is home to myriad of items made of only pure full grain leather from well bred American cows. Just some of the products that they have are luggage, leather briefcase for men, backpacks, belts, wallets, bags of different styles and more.

I’m really drooling over this clutch purse that costs $131.

Long, adjustable strap quickly detaches (clip on one side, nipple rivet on the other)
Wear across chest for added security
Ideal size for travel necessities (and no end-of-day backaches)

I buy online, at the stores and from friends only if I have money. I love leather bags for I know it will last longer because it's durable. It can be pricey at times but being a leather  materials, it's still worth it. I love Coach, kate Spade, Colehaan and Dooney and Bourke leather bags.
