C surprised me a few years ago and upgraded my old Macbook Pro with a new gold Macbook. I’m in love with it: besides being oh-so-pretty (gimme all the gold things) it’s super lightweight and compact, which makes hauling it around in my bag a breeze. I always keep my Macbook in a case or sleeve when I’m on-the-go to protect it from dings and scratches, and when I spotted a nude leather laptop case from Cuyana last…
Mansur Gavriel changed the everyday carryall game with their super chic leather bucket bag in 2013. The trend is still going strong, and while a Mansur Gavriel will set you back about $600, you can score any of these options for way less.

From neutral canvases to bold prints and perforated leather, I can’t get…

It was love at first sight when I spied this beauty on Pinterest a few months ago. It’s perfectly simple and elegant; one of those bags you can carry for decades that only gets better with age.
