Last Friday I asked if you could tell which bag costs $2.250, and which is $40. Which one did you think was more costly?
The answer: bag #1 is the Fendi Peekaboo Large leather tote, $2.250, while bag #2 is the Ashton Oversized Satchel from Handbag Heaven, $40.76.
If you really really wanted the Fendi version but didn’t have two grand to spend, would you settle for handbag #2?

There’s no doubt that canvas has become a hot fabrication for fall; from handbags to coats and bags, it’s an item that you’ll want to work into your wardrobe! I fell in love with these army green canvas Gandolfi Wedges, compliments of Call it Spring. For $50, indulging in the trend doesn’t feel exorbitant, and the materials looks great on the weekend with a pair of jeans and bomber jacket. Even Micia wanted a pair, but I doubt they make kitty sizes.
In this look:
Jacket, Forever 21 (three years ago)
T-shirts, Alternative Apparel & American Apparel (two years ago)
necklace, I made it at the Fenton Fallon event
