It is my great honor to introduce to everyone a lovely blogger and friend of Frock Stock:

She's always the first to help promote another blog and seems genuinely passionate about all the things she posts about. Welcome to our blog, Tina!

'THE TOP 5 ESSENTIAL PURSES!!'

What girl doesn't love purses? I know I do!! I have so many purses!! There's not one type of purse I like. I love the different kinds & types that are out there. I would say next to shoes & makeup, purses is my #3 obsession! With there being so many different kinds of purses, there are 5 essential purses that EVERY girl should have in their closet!







The 'Top 5 Essential' purses that EVERY girl should have:


1. THE CORPORATE





Think of something sophisticated. You don't want something flashy or too bold. But instead, something more muted. Forget the usual black color! Something more toned down will definitely make a statement when you go in the office. I love bringing my red quilted purse (it reminds me of a Chanel purse) to work. I usually wear all black so when I have this on my arm, the color blocking is perfect!

2. THE CLASSIC




What does classic mean to you? I think of going out to dinner with you boyfriend, something simple & clean lines. The classic purse is something that will never go out of style. I love my classic purse! I actually got this purse from one of my thrifting adventures & I LOVE IT!! It reminds me of something I can see Lauren Conrad wearing on a night out.

3. THE DIVA




This is for the diva in you!! Think BOLD. Think SHINY. Think ATTITUDE! That's what this purse should say. When I feel like bringing out the celebrity side of me, I use this metallic bronze colored purse that I got from Forever21 years ago. The color is amazing & the metallic shine makes it pop! When you do for a diva purse, it should be a show stopper every where you go!

4. THE WEEKENDER



When it comes to my weekend purse, I always think of sunny days. I love this purse which I got thrifting with a girlfriend. This totally screamed weekend getaway or beach day! When it comes to your weekend purse, it's something you wouldn't necessarily use during the week. It's fun, with print, & bright. I love how my weekend purse has the bright yellow trim around the purse. The color is just right & not too overwhelming!

5.THE EVERYDAY





For my everyday purse, I tend to go with neutrals or blacks. These colors work best with every outfit in my closet. I got this purse as a present from my lovely mother. The color was perfect for what I was looking for & the size was great. I like bigger purses because I can carry everything & anything in it! Your everyday purse should not only be your accessory, but also something conventional that you can use time & time again.

Hopefully this helps out with any purse dilemma you should have. What do you think the 'Top 5 Essential Purses' should be? I would love to hear you thoughts!!

    1. Hello my fellow Hologram!!! Thanks so much! I love my corporate too! It's subtle but is able to leave a statement! Since I can't actually affor Chanel... might as well get something close to it ;)

  2. I like the corporate (both the color and the style) and I'm also wondering where did you get the classic? I always want a classic purse I just don't know which style to choose from. Yours looks just so darn cute!

    Thanks for the great post!
