However, late in the evening my mom wanted to go out and walk off our dinner so we stopped by a TJ Maxx in Pasadena and I found a gorgeous bag that I couldn't leave behind!
I have been looking for a rectangle-ish bag for the longest time! This one was neither too small nor too big, and the rich leather is gorgeous.
I love the structured look of this bag. It's really clean, and sophisticated looking. The hardware is distinctly feminine but not overbearingly so. Subtle.
Both sides of the bag has a magnetic flap that covers the zippers. I thought that bit was too awesome! I love the flap and i love how it conceals the zipper...gives an illusion of added security? ;)
The inside: there is a zipper in the center, a dust bag for the satchel, and an interior zip. Holds a small wallet, phone, keys and other essentials. I never carry too much with me so this holds perfectly as a casual bag for work and play.
The bag also has metal "legs" that it sits on! So it can sit pretty as well!
The best part? It was only $149.99! With taxes, it came out to $160-ish. It's not too bad considering this bag was a lot more and the structure and leather is so well made. I actually think this bag is so versatile, and with care it will last really long.
What I love most about it is the fact that it looks really casual and undeniably feminine in a well structured and very "user friendly" type of build.
I've never heard of this designer/brand before. Have you?
In another post, I will show you guys the rest of my goodies. I got some other knick-knacks that I haven't photographed yet. I was just totally ecstatic with this bag!
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I was stuffed to the brim with turkey, sushi, cake and wine.
Did YOU score any goodies today?! :)

Looks like you got that bag for a relative bargain considering the normal price! It's very classic and seems really functional as well :) I wish we had Black Friday sales here - shopping heaven! :p
beautiful bag, it looks so versatile! and you got it for a deal, more than 50% :-O
ooooh and the food!!
Happy thanksgiving! I had an early thanksgiving dinner with my boyfriends family last sunday and he made the familys turkey recipe with very traditional sides! I LOVE your meal though! I want sushi so badly right now!
Oh Jen, this is such a cute purse! The compartments are really smart and practical! We don't really have that many Black Friday deals to take advantage of here, but I still managed to score a Karen Millen coat (I'd been eyeing that one! Thought I'd have to wait till the big January sale, but since it was 20% off I thought I'd snatch it up already. I have a "popular" size that is always the first to be OOS) and some Omorovicza! Now I'll get to stay warm this winter AND have pretty skin. A girl doesn't ask for more :)
Yummy yummy food! And I love the purse! I like the structure of it, and it seems like it'll be really useful. Such a steal! :D
What a great deal Jen! Love it! Hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving with your family! The food looks incredible!
At first i thought it was pricey but i figured it can be worse ;)
Thanks Sunny! Smart would be a better word :D Oh, your coat just sounds LOVELY. So happy you got it! Now you can cross that off your list ;) You got yourself some good genes in your skin so the Omorovicza is just a nice little bonus ;)
Stay warm!
:) Thanks! It's classic in my eyes. I hope it'll stay that way :p
