I can never have enough bags. I have a diaper bag, the bags I try to remember to take to the grocery store when I shop, and of course, tons of bags I use for my wallet, makeup, and slew of personal stuff.

I have bags in solid colors and I have vibrant, colorful bags, too. And I have a sweet spot for anything vintage. Which is why I'm loving these Pepsi bags from Envirosax made from recycled plastic bottles.

They come in fun colors, but also feature vintage prints and they can be used for just about anything -- for your everyday items to shopping trips.

I have five different Heritage Designs (the vintage looks) to give away!

To enter to win, tell me...

I Need a New Handbag

My current handbag needs a little needle and thread action -- the magnetic that holds it together is falling off and I keep forgetting to sew it up.

And though I love my bag (it was a Christmas gift from my sister last year), I think I'm over it...need a little change.

Right now I really want a gray handbag. And I like them big so I can fit all my stuff that I for some reason feel I need to carry around with me.

(Tips on downsizing my load should be another article.)

I don't like putting my handbag on the side of chair in restaurants unless I'm against the wall. I'm worried about my bag being stolen.

So where does it often go? On the floor between my feet.

Not the cleanest of spots.

Someone thought about this and invented the Clipa, a hook to keep your bag off the floor!

Birkin-Styled Handbag, $39.95

My sister lives in China, land of the knockoff _______ (anything your heart desires). You can get a "Tiffany" necklace, a "Chanel" handbag, or some "Prada" sunglasses for dirt cheap. I'm talking $10 or less for items that could, if they were the real thing, cost you thousands.

Ladies, we need a handbag that's roomy, can hold everything from our cell phone to baby wipes, but we still want it to look cute. Sometimes that's a tall order.

I found these adorable bags, handmade with canvas (eco-friendly), crafted lovingly by a mom of twins.

And they're priced well!

The real deal. Cost: $1,745

I live in NYC and we're known for a lot of things -- good pizza, great bagels, and counterfeit bags. The people who sell fake Gucci, Prada, and Dooney are everywhere from Canal St. to Times Square.

I'll admit I own a fake Balenciaga.

But when I read on Gothamist that some counterfeit bag buyers were held hostage I freaked out! What the heck is going on?

Confession. I'm not an Avon shopper. I have some friends who sell it, but I've just never been one to use any of their products except for Skin So Soft. But don't they sell that everywhere now?


When the Spring 2009 Avon catalog came across my desk, filled with super cute accessories and jewelry at super sweet prices, I realized that I may be changing my mind.
