I WANT THIS BAG NOW!!!

Payless has been impressing me a lot lately.  And not just with their shoes (although, their shoes have been rockin' lately--more on that in a future post!).  A couple weeks ago, I wrote about the makeup lines they've introduced.  Now they've got fab designers making budget-friendly shoes (which they've actually has for a while) and fantastic handbags.

This fabbity-fabulous vintage inspired bag is by Christian Siriano--you might remember him from Project Runway.  He's done a few shoe lines for Payless in the past, but this handbag he designed is AMAZING!!!

It has everything a girl could want in a handbag: chain straps, lock closure in front, and it's made from a faux patent snake skin print!  The hue of this bag is what makes it so unique and incredible.  It's about the same color blue you'd see in an expensive pair of jeans with a dark wash.  The snake skin detail is subdued a bit, which is perfect because it doesn't take over the whole look of the bag.  The chain straps are my favorite part though.  They're adjustable so that you can wear the bag over the shoulder or as a cross body bag.

The purse itself is a good size--7"HX11"WX3.5".  Large enough to fit all your essentials, yet small enough to use for a night out.

As for the price, you can grab one of these beauties for a mere $39.99. (EEEEEeeeee!!!) Blue and gold have never looked so good together!
