THIS POST IS SPONSORED BY VVA HANDBAGS BUT ALL OPINIONS ARE MY OWN.

Functional versatility is the driving force behind VVA Handbags. Made in Britain, the collection evokes both versatility and elegance, and are individually produced and crafted by hand, using the finest British and Italian leathers. Each VVA bag can be carried and styled in several ways. The new arrivals, like this Carlina Yellow Leather Handbag, which I'm totally obsessed with its uniqueness and vibrant color! 

The Carlina shoulder bag is a handbag with attitude - a showstopper, in your face statement handbag that will certainly catch the eyes of many! What makes this bag ultra-special to me is the leather is Springbok (South African antelope) which has beautiful markings and a rich "punk" effect on the front and is paired with Italian black leather on the back, along with the handles and interior trimming. It even has a signature pink interior!

Designed to be your go-to handbag the roomy interior provides space for your technology, magazines, work documents, and other daily essentials. There's an additional inner handbag in Springbok attached with press studs making it easy to remove and can be used as a separate shoulder or clutch bag. Hand finished with silver nickel details, VVA Handbags are standout investment pieces to your wardrobe. I definitely can say my new bag will come in handy during NYFW! I'm getting excited for next week, how about you guys?

First and foremost, my thoughts and prayers are with the people of Belgium. This morning's news of the Brussels attack makes it hard to stay positive in an already-changing world we are all living in. My heart is in pain for the victims and their families, because not only were lives lost and forever altered but this tension; this fear that now lurks in the air, that had been building up since the Paris attacks, is certainly palpable. I know, however, that the people of Belgium will be resilient and remain standing tall with their heads held up high. We are with you. Much, much, much - so much love to you all.

Today's look is all about the wide leg spring trend. I love its masculine vibe but I also always feel like a Hepburn when wearing my favorite wide leg pants from H&M. Can I just mention the fact that they came with suspenders - which definitely makes me feel a little bit like a 1920s gangster?! Ha ha! All kidding aside, I love the shape and hold of these styled pants. They're empowering and when it comes right down to it, you'll look like you mean serious business, but in a good way! It is definitely not a man's world! To complement the strong long lines of the pants and suspenders, I paired it with a black chiffon blouse from ASOS. It gives the whole outfit a little softness - keeping it feminine.

One of my favorites when it comes to Italian leather is Bottega Veneta. Their leather feels like butter and the quality; superb. I paired my favorite chocolate brown plaited loafers with a matching bag. I love the texture of both - gives the outfit a modern but edgy look. I always got to have a little something extra when it comes to my style! This Bottega bag is from Purses for Nurses, a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to make a lasting improvement on global healthcare by funding volunteer trips that send nurses to the places they are needed the most!

And lastly, my hair was done by Glam & Go, a hair salon that does memberships for unlimited blowouts! You can kiss bad hair days goodbye! $150 a month and you can get blowouts, braids, buns and more! And their location's essential... they're at the David Barton Gym! Now not only do you not have an excuse to go to the gym but on top of it, with multiple locations, you'll never have to worry about your hair looking fly again. I can't wait to go back for some more do's! Thanks again, guys! You totally rock!
