Oh! I'll mention this in the weekly round-up, but: StyleFind asked a bunch of stylists and their favorite fashion bloggers to help them select the must-have bags — the stylists have chosen their top 10, and there's one spot left for a blogger's bag choice.
(Can I just say how honored I am to be included in their list of favorites?)
If you could please vote for my bag, it would be hugely appreciated — you can vote for me, enter to win all 11 “it” bags, and check out all of the other bloggers' choices here.

Hunting for a great professional purse? In 2026, readers are loving affordable crossbody bags like those from Cuyana, Lo & Sons, and Madewell — also check out Clare V's bags.

Cute Prada bag, though I can only imagine how much that puppy costs. Great photo, too, Kat! The other bags are a bit “meh” for me, though. I can’t wait till this old lady purse trend is over.
I totally agree – Kat’s choice is the only interesting one of the bunch!
Kat’s winning right now! Go Kat!
I find it horribly ugly. Sorry, Kat, I just can’t vote for that.

Hi fantastic blog! Does running a blog similar to this require a large amount of work?
I’ve very little knowledge of coding however I
was hoping to start my own blog in the near future.
Anyhow, if you have any ideas or techniques for new blog holders feel free to share.
I know this is off topic however I simply had to ask. Thanks!
