Snake Skin Bags...Another great find!


Cynthia Rowley Snake Skin Handbag
Orginally $250, bought it for $150

 If you look at the pages of any fashion magazine for the 2011 spring/summer trends, you will find that animal skin is going to be hot this season. Anything from leopard skin, to snake skin will be a great trend to add to your wardrobe. I pride myself on being a bargain shopper and someone who can find "the deal"; however,  finding an affordable snake skin bag was a little difficult. I didn't want to pay a lot of money because there is no guarantee that is a trend would have much longevity in future seasons. So I make it a rule that if I am going to indulge in a trend, I make sure that I am not investing alot of money into it. If you want to be a fashionista, you have to make sure that you are buying classics (clothes that you can wear for seasons to come) and not just trends. So I searched and searched for an affordable snake skin bag that I would be proud to carry. To me, fake snake skin and leopard skin bags tend to look kind of cheap so I decided that I would go to Nordstrom Rack, Filenes Basement and T.J. Maxx to find a bag that was genuine snake skin and that was affordable. After endless hours of searching, I finally settled on this Cynthia Rowley bag I found at T.J. Maxx which was originally $250 and I got it for $150. It is genuine snake skin and leather. I did find some great alternative for cheaper, but this bag was my style and kind of scream my name! If you don't want to spend that much, I have attached a great alternative! This Jessica Simpson Faux Snake Skin bag, is a great substitute if you want to save some money. This bag is only $88 and you can find it at Macy's.( I will attached the link below). I will be searching for other Snake Skin bags that are cheaper and feature them on this site so stay tuned!!!!
