With all of the negative attention she garnered by having to go to rehab for an undisclosed reason, actress Eva Mendes made a great comeback. She has been working steadily since her release from a rehab facility and looks fabulous, even when she is casual.
One of the projects that she has been working on is a line of bedding. The line is very luxe and makes for a very well appointed bed.
In all, there are five different patterns in various rich colors and designs. All of them come as four-piece comforter sets that also include two standard or king shams and a bedskirt. You can also separately purchase the completer pack that allows you to finish the look with two decorative pillows and two European shams.
Of course, no bedding collection would be complete without sheets, so Macy's is also selling an Eva Mendes brand of these as well. They are made of 300 thread count jacquard for a soft touch on your skin as you sleep.
Sounds great, right? Just make sure you have enough to spend – the four-piece comforter sets start at $340 and go on up to $425, with sheet sets starting at $130.
We love convertibles — both the cars and bags. We love convertible bags because they are so versatile and can be used in more than one way. They are like the Transformers of the fashion world, and we have several new ones that you will love.
Melie Bianco Convertible Chain Tote
The Melie Bianco Convertible Chain Tote goes from large and deep tote bag to a smaller handbag that fits underneath your arm.
Chinese Laundry Convertible Backpack Tote
The Chinese Laundry Convertible Backpack Tote also has more than one use. If you want something a little smaller or more elegant in order to take this bag out with you shopping or even to work, then you fold it over and make it into a whole new bag.
Chinese Laundry Convertible Button Tote Tote
The Chinese Laundry Convertible Button Tote has a natural, leafy green color mixed perfectly with a dark brown color that makes for a very zen like appearance. The bag also has extra straps so that you won't have any trouble at all making sure you can carry the bag any way you like. As with all our bags, there are discounts to be had the sooner you order, with free shipping for totals over $100.
Tired of the same old shapes in handbags? Well, we never get tired of bowlers or frame bags … or hobos … OK, so we don't get tired of any type of handbag. But just because we love the status quo doesn't mean we shouldn't change it up every once in awhile.
Urban Expressions Balloon Bag
The absolute best example of this is our new Urban Expressions Balloon Bag. It is arguable our most unique shape yet, and that is high praise considering how many truly uniquely-shaped bags we offer here at Baghaus.

After several seasons of skinny jeans, relaxed fit and boot cut are slowly coming back.
Katie Holmes seems to love baggy jeans, as she has worn this same pair (from a men's line of jeans!) several times recently around New York City. Of course, the rumor is she might be pregnant, thus wearing the baggy jeans to hide a burgeoning bump.

OK, so this actually wasn't the Lucy we were talking about when we first started writing up this blog post, but it is the first Lucy that comes to mind when we hear that name. And who wouldn't love this Lucy? Her show is still hilarious all these years later – how many comedies can say that in today's modern day? Not too many!
Lucy Purse - $50.00
We are rather hoping that the second Lucy that comes to mind when you hear that name will be this handbag. The new, simply-named Lucy Purse is a beautiful handbag that will look great slung over your shoulder or carried on your arm. It has leatherette accents like a small heart cutout and some stitching and gathering at the sides. Choose from black, brown or white.
Striped Lucy Purse - $50.00
If you couldn't decide between white or black for the Lucy Purse, we have two suggestions. One is to buy them both, or buy our Striped Lucy Purse instead, which allows you to get a black and white combo purse or coffee and white combo purse so you don't have to choose a color. It has the same side leatherette detail stitching and heart cutout that the original Lucy Purse has, but with stripes that will look great with any casual outfit.
Blue Ed Hardy Patch Diaper Bag
Who would think that a tough guy that puts tattoos all over his handbags and other clothing could turn into such a softie? We sure didn't see it coming, which made the introduction of a new line of Ed Hardy diaper bags all the more stunning.

We just love designers that can take a trend and put their own chic signature on it, which is why we love Melie Bianco. We have been carrying her line of handbags and totes for a few months now here at Baghaus, and the response has been spectacular. We expect nothing less than that same response for her newest bags:
Melie Bianco Braided Large Hobo
Braids are big right now, and this Braided Large Hobo combines braided handles with a hobo style bag that is also very trendy right now. This beautiful rust color will give your wardrobe a lot of pop. We love this for daytime use, it can be used to add color to a jeans and tee combo or dress it up with a sundress. It would also look great with the maxi dresses that are all the rage right now.
More New Melie Bianco Bags After The Jump
As the calendar turns to the sweltering month of August, some people are only thinking of how high the mercury will go. Many aren't even thinking about bundling up for fall. Except for fashionistas such as you, of course. Fall fashion is now available, and we have the best of the collections right here, starting with Gucci.
The fall collection is called the Hysteria Collection. And it features some things that are carryovers from the current season, like these gladiator sandals. Of course, they are in fall colors and styles but still maintain the swords and sandals look.
We know fringe is big for fall, but we can think of other ways to spend $1200. With our luck, they would probably get caught on the leg of a table or chair.
Yep, tassels are going to be big, like this $650 belt. Ouch! We love it, we think its chic but for that money, we could buy much more than one belt. Imagine all the Baghaus bags you could buy with that money … hmmm …
Either way, the new collection is stylish and chic, just like you would expect from Gucci.
Yep, zippers are pretty big right now. We were wondering exactly when this trend would catch on. Ever since Jeffrey Sebelia won season three of 'Project Runway' with this stunning zippered dress:
… we thought they would catch on a lot quicker. But, better late than never!
Zip Around Hobo - $56.00
Our Zip Around Hobo will having you singing Zippety Do Dah in no time. This unique bag has zippers going all the way around, plus a zippered top closure, an internal zippered pocket and a small attached coin purse that also has a zippered closure. More zippers for the buck than you could ever imagine! And it is only $68, though if you order now during our limited-time sale, you can get the bag for just $56.
Nicole Lee Multi-Zipper Patent Tote - $72.00
The new Nicole Lee Multi-Zipper Patent Tote is just stunning. It has lots of small gold tone zippers that accessorize the bag and give it an edgy look that you will want to wear everywhere. It is a bargain at the regular price of $80, but buy now and get it for just $72. It is a large size and can even double as a quick overnight bag, so it is definitely worth every penny you will spend on it, and then some.
One of our favorite designers is Stella McCartney. We just love her line of perfumes with their rose and amber notes, and she has some very chic clothes, many of which come in sizes larger than 6 (gasp!). A few highlights of her fall collection:
We gotta say, we were kinda tired of the whole color fade/bleed thing awhile back, when it started showing up on things like hoodies and velour pants. But this makes it chic all over again, and it is a very simple silhouette that looks comfortable to wear, unlike some fashion these days.
One big theme you see all through McCartney's collection this season is ruffles. She is in love with them, and we gotta admit, if they look this good we may just fall in love, too. We are normally not huge fans but this is gorgeous.
If we are gonna fall in love with ruffles, this is the type of dress that would make us do it. Not poofy at all, like ruffles can sometimes be. The color is great and would look good on just about any skin tone.
