Maxx New York frame bagAfter a hectic week at my full-time job, it’s nice to take some time and look at beautiful handbags—I particularly like this Frame Bag by Maxx New York, available for $328. First off, I love the color of the pebbled leather, which I think is perfect for springtime; it reminds me of pale-colored flowers pushing through a snow-covered ground—I have a vivid imagination! It’s also available in black or white, if you prefer.

Measuring 14″ l x 7.5″ h x 8″ d, it has a kiss-lock closure—that style of closure always reminds me of adorable coin purses. With its gold-tone hardware and belt-like handles, this purse fits right in with the current popularity of buckles and straps. Check out the flattering metallic gold trim on the handles.
