Beer-Proof Purses for St. Patrick’s Day

March 16th, 2011 | Tips and Quips

As much as I love green, it’s not a color that agrees with my skin tone, so on St. Patrick’s Day my bit of green is usually in the form of an accessory.  If you’re in the need of some Irish inspiration, here are some good options that will keep the St. Patrick’s Day pinchers to themselves and can take you through spring and summer as well.  They are all made of materials that are easy to wipe down, so should you be involved in a particularly rousing rendition of the Unicorn Song and beer gets spilled on one, you have no worries.

Holly Aiken Handbags

Designer Holly Aiken’s mission is to make “uncomplicated bags using distinctive, indestructible materials” and if you check out her colorful product line, you’ll see she has succeeded. All Holly Aiken handbags are made of vinyl and black webbing and feature colorful, geometric patterns. The are mildew and oil resistant and because of the materials, they are a cinch to clean.

She has multiple styles, patterns, and color combinations to choose from. I was instantly drawn to the Taxi Poppy in Iris and Orange, probably because I have major spring fever. Holly also makes accessories and I think the coasters would make an especially fun gift (in case anyone is looking to get me a gift).
