The Monday Covet List

By

Another Monday, another Covet List!

(A little background: Since I’ve decided that coveting is infinitely more agreeable than reckless spending, I was thrilled to be approached by Nadia Carriere of Child Mode to participate in the Monday Covet List. Together with some of my favorite fashion and style bloggers, Nicole Feliciano of Mom Trends, Vera Sweeney of Lady and the Blog and Audrey McClelland of Mom Generations, we’ll share 3-4 covet-worthy products that we are currently lusting over.)

Of course, I’ve realized that coming up with a covet list is way too easy because I tend to covet things all the time. This week, I’ve got the following gorgeous pieces on my mind (and perhaps favourited on my browser)…

I’m making it really easy on myself this week, as ALL my #MondayCovet items happen to be, well, the same item. This week only, the PIPPA BAG by Modalu England is on sale at Town Shoes… 25% off the original price! That’s right, one of the most covet-worthy handbags – available in a variety of prints, colours and fabrics – is a quarter-off the usual cost for the entire week. Be still my heart!

Of course, if I had to pick just three styles, I am in full-on “want” mode for the following pieces:


The best part? The PIPPA BAG won’t break the bank. They’re all reasonable priced under $295, and when you factor in a cool 25% off, all of a sudden it makes sense to put a PIPPA BAG under the Christmas tree – for yourself! (And I do believe you’ve all been very good this year.) Happy shopping!

    Over $200 and won’t break bank??!! If I do buy it, the tag has to be on it every time I take it with me ! If it’s made in PRC then no way for $200. Couldn’t find the ” manufactured in ” detail on the website

      Bad news: pretty sure Modalu bags are made in India. But from the “won’t break the bank” perspective, the PIPPA is considered a designer bag. Hence, if you’ve got the means and desire to purchase a designer bag, the PIPPA is the way to go!

    Wow, beautiful, purses are not a weakness of mine, but I can appreciate such taste :) .. we all have our ‘be still my beating heart moments’ on items we adore! I say treat yourself Lena! OR slip hubby the link and ask him hot you’d look w/that in your hand or on your arm :).

      Thanks Darlene! Funny enough, my husband is more of a fashionista than I am, so there would be no convincing involved!

    This a really a gorgeous/stylish/practical bag! I especially love the red one. I have a red weakness!

    I’m not a shoe/handbag-aholic, but these are pretty, love the turquoise one. One like this would definitely break my bank… I would rather take the cost of this purse and put it towards that gorgeous winter coat you blogged on not long ago (the reversible one) :)

    Pretty Colours! I have to admit I am not a purse fan, would love it if I didn’t have to carry one. My hubby got tired of me just carrying my wallet around so I do ONE now.

    I am a huge fan of purses, just not enough to pay over $200. But as a gift I would gladly accept the red or grey one. Happy shopping Lena, you may just find one of these under your Christmas tree.

    I am a bag nut, but not fussy on these or the price, I am a fan of their more funky ones. I bought a bag from them last year for about $50. It’s not leather but I really like it. Winners has some great bags

    now this is my kind of covet oh how I love purses I’m just too cheap to get a good one.

    I have such a handbag weakness. I usually drag myself away from buying new ones. Love this! It is just about the time to start dropping hints for Christmas… ;)
