North West Giving Us Bag Envy!

When you're the child of an international celebrity and rap star, life is bound to be different and so is everything that comes with it!

Most kids at the tender age of 3 have never even heard of Gucci and Prada, let alone wore it. But little North West was recently spotted out and about with Mum Kim Kardashian carrying this little Fendi number on her arm and apparently it's price tag, was a whopping 2K! 

So, most bag lovers will tell you the bag addiction starts at an early age. Little girl's sneaking into their mothers wardrobe and cupboards for her handbag and shoes...

Our guess is, North spotted this bag in her Mummy's closet and thought i'll have that, Kim probably never even noticed it missing amongst her amazing bag collection. If like the rest of us at toddler age, she probably filled it with a hairbrush, some bobbles and a tiny doll, along with the sweets and lollipops. 

But we have to say, North is one cool kid...

The beauty of a hair style like this, is that it suits everyone, whatever your face shape or hair colour. So if it's good enough for our Kim K, then it's good enough for us and quite frankly, we love it.

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!

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.

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!

Whatever your taste, we've got everything from the retro cat eye to the classic aviator. 

All our sunglasses offer UV400 protection and prices start from £9.99

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!

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!
