A handbag is the perfect accessory to any already stunning outfit. The Big Buddha line delivers on the star-quality sizzle of a stand out clutch or purse and has a fantastic name to boot. Each year this contemporary wholesale line (seen in many a boutique) hops on the trend bandwagon and re-invents their seasonal look. Example: Fall was large totes in manmade leather (aka animal friendly) and ranged from basic blacks and browns to eye-popping reds, camels, and rich greens. This spring, their look is all about small shoulder bags, hobo slings with fringe adornment and totes in weathered pinks and baby blues. Their straw, ostrich leather, and woven hangbags have also been extremely popular.

My standout favorite of the upcoming season is a camel-colored suede fringe shoulder bag. Versatile, but funky, it is big enough for all of my necessary daily items and small enough to use for dinner or a night out.

Whenever a large manufacturer produces thousands of handbags a year, I instantly worry about quality. I'm happy to say that after 3 years of new styles and products, I've never personally had a problem. Not only that, I've never had a complaint or return from a customer.  The best part? The price for one of these chic carry-all's is totally reasonable. Summer handbags start at $60 and continue up based on size and fabric. The fall/winter bags are in the $70-120 range.
