Closets&Drawers: Angela&Roi Handbags

Plaid is Rad

Tuesday, November 19, 2013

Since I have the day off tomorrow and I'm off to a bar at night to watch the New Zealand vs. Mexico game, I thought I would put together an outfit that's both fashionable and perfect for a night out with some friends.

Today I felt like playing around with different textures and designs so we have lots going on here. I would say that the main piece or what I focused everything on is the quilted leather skirt. I love how they look and the edge that they bring to an outfit. Since plaid is making a comeback this fall we threw in a long sleeve plaid shirt that made this look a bit more punk rock.

To tone the punk rock a bit we added a dark gray cardigan, but since I love playing around with color I added these blue heels that are also sure to make a statement.

To bring the outfit all together add a necklace that will bring a bit of shine to your face and a perfect bag like this one from Angela & Roi Handbags.

Angela&Roi Bags with a Purpose

Monday, November 18, 2013

Today I'm going to talk about the most amazing bags I have ever heard of and seen. These bags are from Angela&Roi Handbags.

What's amazing about these bags is that, not only are there plenty of colors to chose from but the colors mean something that you probably didn't have in mind. Each color represents a cause. The causes that they represent with their colors are AIDS, diabetes, kidney disease, anxiety and depression and different types of cancer. The company works together with eleven non-profit organizations. The company donates $5 of each sale to the non-profit organization which helps the cause of the colored bag that you have purchased (Buy a red bag, red is for AIDS, $5 goes to AIDS Foundation of Chicago).

All of their bags are high quality products that are made with precision and care. They incorporate great stitching and artistic details which add something more special to these beautiful minimalistic bags. These bags are made out of vegan leather and durable fabrics. The only non vegan part of the bag is the AR ribbon. The bags are designed and made in South Korea, this is where the founders were born.

I simply love the idea and what happens when you purchase one of these bags. They are not overly priced, you get to look great with an awesome bag and also help out other people.
