Jenner Style Steal

We love to blog about the Kardashian Jenners because lets face it, love em' or loathe em' they are always one step ahead of the fashion game.

Kylie and Kendall in particular are seriously hot right now, on or off the catwalk and with fashion ranges, lip gloss and a whole host of other things firmly under their belts, they are definitely an inspiration to young women all over the world. 

Ok, we don't have the bank balance to match, so how can we get the look at a fraction of the cost? Well at Bag Envy our handbags and accessories are inspired by the latest catwalk trends and secondly, we're crushing on two celeb style steals, you'll want to read on..... 

First up, we're all about the arm candy and Kylie Jenner has one hell of a tote swinging in the crook of her arm. This Givenchy number is literally oozing bag envy, but if you've not got a couple of grand to spare, then check out our style steal!

The Sartorial Croc Tote Bag is crafted from beautiful material and exquisitely finished offering superior quality at a price that won't break the bank! This stunning piece is exclusive this season and it's also limited, meaning you're not gonna see every tom, dick and harry wandering about with the same swag! Shop yours for just £49.99.

Sartorial Croc Tote Bag Envy

Ok, you've got the bag of your dreams and maybe you could add some extra chic to it...How about a fluffy pom?

Ever since Kendall was seen strutting her stuff with her Fendi pom attached to her bag, the world has gone pom pom crazy! But what a gorgeous little accessory, fantastic for livening up a dull bag, or how about fastening it to a purse or clutch? Us BE girls also use our poms as keyrings, they're so fluffy and cool and make gorgeous presents.

Our style steal is our cute version in the same blue yellow colour mix, but you can also shop pom poms in loads of other colours too from £3.99.

Sunglasses And Bag Envy

We've had some really good weather days lately. The sun has been shining and we've dared to bare the arms and legs! 

But one thing's for sure, whether the sun is hot or not, is that sunglasses are an essential Summer accessory, be it driving to work, or strolling along the beach on holiday. A good pair of sunglasses, whilst looking good and stylish will also protect your eyes. 

Now when it comes to choosing sunglasses, some gals are lucky enough to carry off any style, whilst some of us swear by the same design, time after time. Take the gorgeous Kylie Jenner, she can carry off any style, from thick set black frames to delicate mirrored lenses. We love how she's incorporated the silver sunnies into her evening look. Again, going out on an evening for alfresco dining or drinking means your sunglasses should come with you too!

Work The Micro Bag Trend Like Kylie Jenner

Kylie Jenner is no stranger to gorgeous handbags! You've only got to scroll through her Instagram to see arm candy galore! we're talking Hermes, Fendi to name drop a couple. It's a handbag collection that would make anyone suffer serious bag envy!

But recently, Kylie was spotted with a smaller arm candy in her grasp...a micro bag!

Kylie Jenner Micro Bag

Micro bags are incredibly versatile and the reason why they are becoming so popular is because they tick all the boxes.

Imagine this, it's Friday, you're at work but going straight out for drinks with the girls at 5pm! Who wants to be carrying a great big handbag around, filled with everything from an empty lunch box to god knows what else! If you've got kids, you'll probably find a couple of action figures in there too! But the point is, a micro bag whilst big enough to hold your daily essentials, gives you a bit more to play with than a standard clutch bag.

It really will take you from the office to the wine bar...

One of our best sellers, pictured below is the beautiful Victoria micro bag. Crafted from a gorgeous faux leather in a beautiful colour, perfect for the new season! Another plus with this style, is that it comes with a detachable shoulder strap, hanging from the shoulder, this style will ooze relaxed chic and style!

Gigi Hadid Is Oozing Bag Envy!

Well ladies, Spring is just around the corner and no doubt you've been thinking about treating yourself to some gorgeous new clothes or maybe some fresh new arm candy!

Spring is the time to ditch the head-to-toe dark colours and embrace vibrant hues, pastels and gorgeous prints from florals to fashionable patterns. Of course we know that the high street take their inspo from the catwalk and this includes bags too.

Gigi Hadid is a major fashion influence on and off the catwalk. If Gigi is wearing it, carrying it, then we want it! This girl always gets it right, and that includes the handbags!

If you only invest in one handbag this season then we would definitely go for a neutral tone, anything from creams and nudes to beige and khaki. The reason for this is, when you're wearing Spring Summer clothes in bright pinks or blues for example, the last thing you want is to accessorise with harsh black accessories, keeping it neutral works so much better. Plus neutral tones also work with dark colours which is a double bonus, just incase you can't bear to part with the black or grey.

Check out Gigi in this pic. Skinny black jeans with a navy blazer, how well does the beige tote go with this whole outfit? Now whilst we all don't have the luxury of a designer bank account, you can definitely bag a style steal! 

Bag Envy Ryleigh Bag

Our Ryleigh bag is a gorgeous tote. A no fuss style, with clean lines and oozing bag envy! The Ryleigh bag is definitely a must have for any bag lover and at only £37.99 it's not breaking the bag fund!
