Rebecca Minkoff handbags have always turned my head because they have classic shapes but also have edgy details that make them modern and interesting. They are beautifully made in a wide array of styles and colors to suit any personality.
Rebecca launched this video to introduce her Fall 2010 line called Bada Boum! I am having trouble picking a favorite. You can see the whole collection here.
Target just announced its newest and I think best handbag collaboration to date. British brand Mulberry with be partnering with the retailer on a collection that will be released on October 10.
While I am a big fan of the style that Target is achieving with its handbag collaborations, I have never liked the fake leather PVC that the Target price point necessitates. Word on the street is that Mulberry will be using more fabrics like denim and velvet, which will help keep the handbags from looking cheap.
Here are a few of my favorites from Mulberry’s current collection. Let’s hope they can translate their great designs into purses that everyone can afford!
Heidi!
Looks like waiting until the last minute paid off as we picked #15 out of the hat.

Minx Boutique is one of my favorite local shops and they have a new great offer for their shoppers. In an effort to reduce waste, they have introduced the Minx Bunny Bag, a nylon reusable bag sporting an adorable bunny rabbit.
You will get a free Bunny Bag with a single purchase of $150 (limit one per customer) or you can purchase one for $15. Then you’ll receive 10% off future purchases when you present your Bunny Bag at the counter and use it to carry out your items. Not only does this cut down on trash but also gives you a new tote for groceries, the beach, or whatever!

Welcome to Purse Pixie, my new little world of fun, style and purses. Here I hope to share some info-maybe about popular styles, maybe about indie brands, maybe buying advice, but all in hopes of helping you find the right bag (or bags) for you. Join me in the coming weeks as we talk about purses: what I like, what I don’t, and what I know and I hope you’ll join in the conversation.
