Thank you to Kipling for sponsoring today’s post and inspiring me to get ready for the holidays with the #KiplingHoliday Tour!

Can you believe that we are halfway through November? That simple fact blows my mind. I have been getting all of my lists together and figuring out what’s going on my own wish list but more importantly what I will be giving to some of the special ladies in my life this holiday season. My girlfriends are self diagnosed handbag addicts! We could spend hours shopping for cute bags and being that a lot of us are at different points in our lives we all have different needs in a handbag. Some have little ones and they need a bag that will hold all of their stuff + everything they need to bring along for their kids, some are on the go all the time for work and need a bag that will fit their laptop and note pads, and some are in grad school and a stylish backpack is of great importance.

I wanted to share some bags with you that are all super stylish and will fit your every need! Kipling is simply amazing and is one of my go to shops when I go on a handbag hunt. I thought it would fun to kick of this year’s gift guide posts with a gift guide for all of the bag lovers out there!

I am loving the new arrivals section at Kipling! While browsing for what to grab for myself and my gal pals, I decided to share some of my favorites with you. These bags are super cute and durable, truly fitting our every need. Are you a mama who needs a modern day Mary Poppins bag? They’ve got them. Super stylish bags to fit everything from your phone to milk bottles and a blanket. A student? That backpack is EVERYTHING. So pretty and so roomy. I really love the metallic look. You all know that animal print is my love language so I went ahead and grabbed that bag for myself and can’t wait for it to get here! The satchels and tote bags are definitely bags that I would gift to a friend, while stylish and on trend they’re also all so practical! I surely feel like I have to think about so many things when choosing the right bag, I am a chronic over-packer and I need a bag that can hold all of my stuff. Every bag that Kipling has to offer does just that, you can’t go wrong.

Another cool thing about Kipling is that they offer free monogramming, score! Where are all my southern girls? I know you all love to monogram everything. I think I’m going to grab the pink baby bag for a friend and go ahead and have it monogrammed. Cute, right? I think my girlfriend will love it and I will definitely love gifting it!

This weekend I am heading up to NYC to the Kipling store in SOHO for the #KiplingHoliday Tour!  The #KiplingHoliday Tour is free, family-friendly and open to the public through RSVPing to the event. Attendees will be welcomed to a spectrum of event highlights including: a Kipling Holiday Collection show wall, on-site monogramming, bespoke gift-wrapping, personalized sweets, photo booths, giveaways, and holiday DIY inspiration.
