DeMellier London

Hey guys! I hope your autumn season is off to a good (and fashionable) start! If you’ve been following along on the blog with me, you know how big a fan of DeMellier London I am. DeMellier is a London-based handbag company that designs the most incredible bags at phenomenal prices. Most of their bags range from $350 – $500, and I like to think of the brand as “quiet” luxury. These bags have no flashy logos, just a tiny name print. If you are looking to add some quiet but stylish pieces to your handbag collection, I cannot recommend DeMellier enough!

The Vancouver by DeMellier London

The Vancouver by DeMellier London is my current go-to bag! I love that it’s a contemporary brand that is low-key but high-quality. The Vancouver Bag is spacious and can hold all my essentials, including my iPhone, wallet, keys, sunglasses, and makeup. If you prefer a slightly smaller bag, The Vancouver is available in a clutch version and a small size.

I’m always on the hunt for the perfect black bag, but if you prefer a pop of color, The Vancouver is available in over 14 different colors and finishes! Be sure to check out the Deep Toffee color, it just screams fall!

Longchamp Proves French Luxury Doesn’t Have To Be Overwhelmingly Expensive!

Longchamp – Affordable French Luxury

Happy Summer ya’ll! I’ve been having some major fun in the sun this summer and trying to keep it stylish while I do it! Longchamp and their gorgeous bags have helped keep my summer looks effortless, chic, and interesting. If you’re not familiar with the French brand, Longchamp, please allow me to introduce you to what may become your new go-to!

A true family business, Longchamp was founded in 1948 by Philippe Cassegrain and is still family owned and operated by his children today. Longchamp is known for creating quality handbags at affordable prices and their signature iconic bag is the Le Pilage.

Get The Longchamp Looks!

Longchamp Basket Bag – The Longchamp Le Panier Pliage Basket Bag is my favorite summer bag. The bright white pairs well with so many of my summer looks, and the bag is versatile enough for all occasions. The Basket Bag is canvas with a straw effect and it features a removable shoulder strap. Most importantly this quintessentially French bag will only set you back $235.00! That’s a far cry from most French luxury brands (looking at you Chanel…). I opted for the white version of the bag, it is also available in red and brown. I’d love to hear what Longchamp handbag is your favorite!

J.Crew Teddy Short – J.Crew is a longstanding favorite of mine. I love how the brand stays chic & elegant and these shorts are no exception. The emerald green color gave me a nice contrast with the white/neutral and because it’s J.Crew, the shorts are quality. Follow the link and snag a pair before the fall items arrive!

Zara Bodysuit – Can you have enough bodysuits? I say no, and typically I head to Amazon for my bodysuits but Zara is a goldmine too! Zara offers a wide range of colors and styles that will help you effortlessly transition into fall.

Finishing The Look!

Steve Madden Fisherman Sandals – These chunky lug sole fisherman sandals by Steve Madden are just the thing for any summer look. I paired them with sandals here, but I’ve also worn them with maxi dresses and jeans! These shoes are light and airy and not at all “heavy”. This particular shoe is available in pink and black as well.

J.Crew Jade Sunglasses & Layer Necklace – J.Crew has a fantastic accessories selection. I can always find a new jewelry piece, sunglasses, or hair accessory in J.Crew. If you haven’t tried J.Crew for accessories, do yourself a favor and check them out!
