Wear it with Barrett: Faux Leather Totes, Beach Bags, Purses & Backpacks

June 2, 2017 By houseofhargrove@gmail.com

Happy Friday! I have to admit something to all of you… I have a bag problem.  I love faux leather totes, beach bags, purses & backpacks.  There are so many cute ones right now and I thought it would be a good time to share my favorites since Summer vacations and activities are almost here! So grab your coffee (or your wine, depending on when you are reading this) and get ready for a tour of the cutest, most versatile, most stylish and practical bags! Several of my picks are on sale too! Yippee!

TOTES, BEACH BAGS, PURSES & BACKPACKS….OH MY

Faux Leather Totes

Love the tassels and the cognac color on this faux leather TOTE! It’s on sale too! Only $39.98!!!

This reversible faux leather TOTE has amazing reviews and I love this new color combo, silver and nude! It even comes with this wristlet! It is a great price too!

This black faux leather TOTE is also available in other colors! It has fantastic reviews and is affordable!

Sorry for the tangent, I know this isn’t a faux leather tote, but it is so functional and I had to share it with you guys! I have a similar waterproof on one side, fold up BLANKET, and I use it quite often! It’s perfect for picnics, snacks at the park with your kids, concerts, etc.  It’s 70″x80″ when it is unfolded and it folds up into this convenient little tote.

Since we are already off track, let me also tell you about my amazing new BATH WRAP!!! I was on the hunt for a new one because my old bath wrap wasn’t cutting it anymore.  UPS just delivered mine and it is the softest bath wrap ever! I throw it on after my shower everyday and this one is sooooooo cozy! I digress, just wanted to go on and on about two of my favorite things! Back to bags…

Beach Bags

There are so many fun and colorful beach totes to choose from! Here are my favorites right now, I might need a couple! Is that bad?

This mesh BEACH TOTE is super cute and a great deal too!

This WOVEN TOTE is so cute, love the tassels! This is a handmade woven tote that even has a slip pocket.  The tassels are removable too, not that you would ever need to detach that adorable touch!

I have had my eye on this unique TOTE for months and now it’s on SALE!!! It’s even better in person! It’s really roomy and perfect for the beach!

I am loving the colors on this tassel trim TOTE and it’s easy to carry on your shoulder! Better yet, it’s a great price!

This is another color option for the first beach TOTE I mentioned above.  I honestly can’t tell you which one I like better! They are both so cute!

ONE | TWO | THREE | FOUR | FIVE

These are my favorite, tried and true, beach bags! I have the neon pink and gold one (#2, but the bigger size) and I absolutely love it! They are made from sailcloth so they are really durable! You can spot clean them with a magic eraser, easy peasy! They all have interior pockets and they even offer a matching wristlet for each color way! You can personalize them too! Mine has my initials in gold thread! They fold down nicely so they are easy to store when you aren’t using them.  You can pick either the Middy (the medium sized one) or the Ditty (the larger one).  I have the ditty and would recommend it if you are looking for a large tote for putting your stuff and your kid’s stuff in it.  The middy would be a great option for a diaper bag or for running around town!

Purses

This crossbody SADDLE BAG has great reviews for good reason! It’s so cute and this cognac distressed leather will go with everything! Love the little tassels on the zippers too!

This classic CROSSBODY is reminiscent of a Chanel bag with it’s quilted design.  The chain is adjustable so you can carry it on your shoulder, crossbody, or remove it completely and carry it as a clutch.  This is an elegant purse that you can dress up or down!

This is a real leather TOTE that also has an optional clip in pouch.  This will be a pretty timeless style that you can carry for many years.  Love the pebbled leather!

Then there’s this beautiful HOBO purse that has awesome tassels and is on SALE! It has buttery soft pebbled leather and it great quality.  Did I mention it’s on SALE? Hurry, snag your before they sell out!

Backpacks

So a friend of mine asked me to help her find the perfect backpack for them to take on their trip! Backpacks are so much cuter than when I bought mine for college! Ha ha! You can’t go wrong with a classic black backpack because your hubby can carry it for you too! He might still complain but at least it won’t be too girly! 😉 If you don’t care about any of that, then you will love this gorgeous backpack…

This berry colored BACKPACK is so cute and a great size too! It has padded shoulder straps and lots of pockets! It also comes in olive which would be perfect for anyone!

This quilted BACKPACK is actually a diaper bag in disguise! Even if you don’t need a diaper bag, we could all use lots of compartments!

This chic BACKPACK has pretty gold hardware and sleek, black fabric.  Again, it’s a diaper bag if you need it to be or just super handy if you don’t!

 

Hopefully you have some fun adventures planned for this Summer! Now you can grab a cute new faux leather tote, beach bag, purse or backpack to take with you!

Last year, Geoff and I added wires up this wall in a diamond trellis pattern. We planted creeping fig, but unfortunately, it all died this winter. I just planted Star Jasmine in its place so really hoping it survives. Texas weather is hard!. Thanks to a little AI magic I was able to create what my ultimate vision is. Fingers crossed it will look like this in a couple of years.

I just learned that May 3 is World Naked Gardening Day 🤣 I seriously can’t believe there is a day dedicated to this, but maybe lots of people need fences 🤷🏼‍♀️😉🌱🌿

I’m letting you in on a little secret...my potted flowers are not real 🤫

I’ve been on the hunt for faux flowers for my outdoor pots and I finally found a winner!!

🌸 comment SHOP and I’ll send you the links

I kept spending lots of money each season on real flowers and it was so much work keeping them alive!

I was looking for a better option and finally found one!

These faux flowers are
•BEAUTIFUL ....always in bloom
•ZERO MAINTENANCE ...no watering, fertilizing, etc
•BUDGET FRIENDLY ...these are priced great and you don’t have to replace them each season
•AND LOOK REAL. Some faux flowers are bad!! These really look good and unless you dig in there you’d never know they are faux

Each pack comes in a bundle of 2 bunches. Each bunch has 7 stems. You can plant 2 ways and I tried both. You can plant the bundle attached together and bend the stems (they are wired) to spread everything out....or....you can cut the bundles apart and plant the stems individually. I ended up doing that and thought they looked more realistic that way.  I ended up using 5 packages (10 bunches) for 2 large pots and 1 smaller pot.

I share both ways on IG stories so you can see the difference.

I also removed some soil and added floral foam blocks beneath, recovered with dirt and stuck the flowers in them.  I don’t think this step was necessary, but I wanted to make sure they were in there firm.

I’m so excited I now get to enjoy beautiful flowers with zero work 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Yall I recently discovered you could make fun art on ChatGPT using your own images for free! @ciarakenaston inspired me with her Beatrix Potter images and I did a deep dive and found you can do so many cool things!

🩵 Download ChatGPT if you haven’t already and have fun!

Upload an image. Can be of your home, your family, etc and then type in prompts to have it alter your image. You can play around with it and try all kinds of things but here were my prompts for the video

1. Beatrix Potter inspired illustration
2. Jan Brett inspired illustration
3. Vintage oil painting
4. E.H. Shepard inspired illustration 
5. Retro British cottage core style

If you do some be sure to share and tag me. I’d love to see them. Endless possibilities!!

❤️AMAZON PRIME SALE❤️ : these are part of the big Amazon sale going on right now

Our family loves fruit, but I HATE how fast it goes bad! I cannot tell you how many times I have thrown out fruit for mold...in just a few days!!

These produce containers have been a game changer! They come in different sets on Amazon for a great price. I bought the 5 piece set because I wanted the larger size container.

They make it so easy to have quick, healthy food ready to go! Each container comes with a colander so you can rinse the fruit and then put it in the container. It allows air to circulate keeping the produce fresher longer!

Can be used for fruit, veggies, meat, etc!
-Dishwasher safe
-leakproof
-amazing reviews!!

🍓comment SHOP for links!
