While most people make New Year's resolutions like losing weight, exercising more, quitting smoking and the like, we make different ones here at Baghaus. Now, don't get us wrong – we totally support healthy resolutions. But sometimes, you gotta indulge, and what better way to do that than with a new wardrobe.
If you are like us, you can't afford a whole new wardrobe, so why not diversify the one you have by adding a few snazzy new pieces? Let us give you some ideas:
Baghaus Riveting Bag inspired by LV - $47.52
Add some metal to your wardrobe with our line of riveting bags. In several colors and styles, like the pictured Riveting Bag and others.
Baghaus Faux Ostrich Print Andi - $47.52
Victoria Beckham with one of her many iconic Birkin bags
Add some wildlife! Most people limit their animal fashion to zebra or cheetah, but this Faux Ostrich Print Andi is one of our favorites.
Baghaus Giraffe Print Shoulder Bag - $43.00
Speaking of wildlife, our series of giraffe prints is unique and we think it is the print that will catch on next. Be ahead of the trend by buying now!
Baghaus Uptown Wallet - $19.80
One of the least-diversified areas of a woman's wardrobe is wallets. Largely ignored, we think wallets should match the handbag, which is why this Uptown Wallet comes in black, pewter, tan or brown.
Baghaus Quilted Eugenie Wallet - $17.82
Don't forget to try our quilted version for a little more style that is affordable.
If you are like us, you carry a lot of stuff in your handbag. This of course necessitates a large tote in some cases. But, some days you just want to carry the bare essentials with you and leave the kitchen sink at home. Is this you? Then we have some handbags you might love.
Buckle Evening Clutch - $43.20
The Perfect Perfo Pochette is comparable to the hot Louis Vuitton bag but at a fraction of the cost. In fact, if you order before Christmas you can get a big discount, down to only $28 for this stylish bag, in brown with either pink or green accents.
Giraffe Print Small Hobo - $39.00
Heat up your winter with a hot animal print. This Giraffe Print Small Hobo is one of our newest releases and won't break your back with its size or your bank account with its cost, a mere $39 with our big holiday sale.
Zippered Wristlet Clutch - $23.22
Our Zippered Wristlet Clutch is the perfect bag for your holiday office parties or friendly get-togethers. Quilted and luxuriously lined on the inside, it is available in gold or white and on sale if you buy now.
Mini Andi Tote - $52.00
Our Andi Tote is one of our most popular bags, but it is too large for some. So of course, we made a smaller version, the Mini Andi Tote that is available in four vibrant colors.
When you hear the word 'quilted' what do you think of? Invariably some of you will say Bounty, since the commercials about their quilted paper towels seem to always be on, no matter what channel you turn it to.
But some of you (like us) might say Gucci or even Chanel, with their timeless quilted chain purses. These types of bags never go out of style and because of their timeless elegance we of course carry several quilted handbag options.
Diamond Forever Bag - $52.92
The Black Diamond Forever bag lives up to its name because it is a bag you will want to have forever. Elegant and beautiful, you can dress this bag up or down.
Quilted Courtney - $47.52
With the Fall/Winter season at fall speed, you may want to change your handbag color palette a bit. Our classic Courtney bag in our new fall colors allows you to do just that. Get this large quilted tote in blue, metallic grey and of course black.
Patchwork Python Bowler - $47.52
And finally, our patchwork bowler is a real treat. A great bag with plenty of room, it is one of the hotter trends in handbags (bowler-style) while still being classy and chic.
We have several other quilted bags you may love. Visit our selection here.
Many people like to stand apart from the crowd. They covet being different and see it as a good thing instead of a disadvantage. If you want to stand apart from the fashion crowd, we have a bag we think is perfect for you. Actually, we have a whole collection of unique bags.
Equinox Shoulder Satchel - $51.00
Our Stones Collection is perfect for any season and can be dressed up or down. What sets them apart is the metal and stone emblem on the front of each one that is unique in its look and dresses up an otherwise basic bag.
Mia Shoulder Bag - $51.00
With several colors to choose from and varying patterns of the metal and stone emblem, we are sure you won't have trouble finding one that suits you. In fact, you may have trouble chooseing only one.
Equinox Shoulder Tote - $51.00
Another great thing about our Stones Collection is that they are very versatile. Wear one with slacks and a blouse, wear another one to the office or dress them up for more formal occasions.
Frame Bowler - $55.25
From dressy to casual, one of the bags from this collection belongs in your wardrobe.
Equinox Mini - $55.25
And of course if you order now during our sale, you can save up big money plus get free shipping on all orders over $75.
Marc Jacobs Venetia Handbag-$1200
Quilted everything is coming soon (or is already at) a store near you. We have seen various quilted pieces in many a designer's fall collections, including a few skirts and shoes on this week's Paris Couture Week runways.
Quilted Venetia inspired by Baghaus
And being the style mavens that we are, Baghaus has also introduced some new quilted pieces as well. New this weeks are our quilted metallic Venetia bags, inspired by a similar Marc Jacobs piece.

We have written at length in this blog about Marc Jacobs. Everything from his recent stint in rehab to the voyeuristic beauty of his new MySpace page. Oh, and about his fashion aesthetic as well, naturally.
Our line of bags inspired by Marc Jacobs is amongst some of the best-selling ones on the site. Even styles from a season or more ago still sell well because a lot of them can go from season to season seamlessly.
Of course, that doesn't mean that Marc is not prone to an occasional flirtation with something a little more dated and trendy. And in honor of Marc's bold choices we present our line of Baghaus Hamptons Convertible Totes, which take the bold colors of summer surf and sails and transforms them into yet another MJ inspired "it" bag.
Baghaus Hamptons Convertible Tote- $55.99
Though the colors of these bags are best for spring and especially summer, we think some people will still try to get away with wearing them into the fall, particularly if we get an Indian Summer. We see nothing wrong with that, especially if you gave up this month's mortgage payment to pay for it pay the fashionably low price of $55.99 for these bright, cheery colors slung over your arm. At that low price, we bet you will want to wear them far into fall – but only because they look so good.
Agelessness. This is a concept that most of us wish we could not only understand but represent. For if we were ageless, we could look 30 even when we are 40, and hopefully feel like it, too.
Unfortunately, the fountain of youth is just a fantasy, and we will eventually age. That being said, one of the things we love about fashion is that there are some genuinely timeless looks that no matter how old they get, truly do feel ageless.
We can say the same about some of the bags we sell here at Baghaus. No matter how many seasons have passed since their introduction, they seem to only get better (and in some cases more popular) with age. The Stam inspired by Marc Jacobs comes in both the classic quilted version, available in six colors and a limited edition exclusive that you will only find at Baghaus.
The Spy bags inspired by Fendi keep selling so well, we have to keep expanding our line. Now in medium and large sizes, the Baghaus Spy bag in various shades of gray, white, cream, brown and black, with a patterned Spy to boot!
And last but not least, what love note about our timeless bestsellers would be complete without mention of the Paddington bag inspired by Chloe. In fact, our shoppers love the Paddington so much, we have a brand-new limited edition version that is made only from the finest materials and worth every penny of the $52.99 they cost, especially when compared to the $2,000 Chloe price tag. Choose from four different colors to compliment anything in your wardrobe, and give it that ageless look we so desire with almost everything else in life.
Although totes are all the rage this spring, a true fashionista can not survive with tote alone. No matter how many seasonal trends sit in our closet, there has to be a few classics sprinkled in to balance things out and make you one with your fashion zen.
Enter the smaller shoulder bag, which has been largely ignored due to this season's obsessions with totes so large they can almost double as a gym bag. Shoulder bags are always a safe bet, no matter what kind of handbag is flying off of shelves. And who better to do the eternal handbag right than one of the masters of classic himself, Marc Jacobs.

Unfortunately, a Marc Jacobs bag like this gorgeous and roomy Irina also comes with a Marc Jacobs price tag. At $995, this will be the only bag gracing your shoulder anytime soon.
The gorgeous Baghaus Irina in white
Enter the Baghaus Irina, inspired by Marc Jacobs. Our version has a quilted pattern with contrasting topstitching, just like Marc's. But ours has a more affordable price tag. At just $42.99 each, you can afford the black, white or yellow Baghaus Irina. Or buy one and then browse some of those oh-so-hot totes. Then you will have the balance we talked about, and you will be at one with your fashion zen.
The Baghaus Irina @ $42.99
Anything that says 'diamond encrusted' is highly prized right now. Sunglasses frames, iPod covers, cell phone skins, ballpoint pens, watches, jewelry and more all have diamond, jewel or gem encrusted versions. Handbags are no exception, as everyone from Birkin to Fendi has a handbag saturated in hand-placed precious stones.
Baghaus Taylor Crystal Shopping Tote - $52.99
Marc Jacobs recently came out with a Taylor bag that is showered in gems. The blue snakeskin wonder is prized for its python skin and high-wattage bling. At $2000 a pop, it will also leave an encrusted hole in your pocketbook. More on Taylor Crystal Handbags inspired by Marc
Hilary and Haley Duff in People.com
In a world of celebrities gone rehab, the Duff sisters are a breathe of fresh air. Unlike other sister duos that might have fallen prey to the pressures of celebrity (homemade porn tape, powdered nose candy, self-induced vomiting), the Duffs *appear* to have their lives in order. Both are undeniably adorable, and both have great taste in handbags a la Marc Jacobs.
The Hudson Tote @ Baghaus, only $49.99
You can find the Hudson Tote inspired by MJ at Baghaus. But while we can't guarantee it will keep your nose clean like the sisters Duff, we can promise that it will keep the balance in your bank account happy.
Also available in black and chocolate dark brown
