New Bags just in from Melie Bianco



We just got in some amazing bags! But you have to come in and get them quick because they are flying of the shelves, or should I say maniquins. My favorite is the Pewter Candy Stripes Bag with gold trim. It's so versatile and can be worn with gold or silver. It looks great with dresses or jeans. You can easily carry this bag all day and then go straight out to dinner with friends. The next bag, is a Gathered Belt Satchel Bag in Orange. Such a great color for Summer and a great transition into Fall. It looks perfect a with our J Brand Cigarette Jeans in White styled with LAmade's Keyhole Tank in Spa. Both bags are roomy and look great with so many different outfits.
