Go Retro!

I've always been a huge fan of 1950s style: tight pincurls, cool leather jackets, and hot cars (think: West Side Story).

A great site that I found recently,Pinupgirlclothing.com, offers handmade-in-the-USA clothing and gorgeous handbags all with a retro theme. With so many fabulous bags on the site, it was hard to choose just one. My favorite is a silver glitter-specked handbag reminiscent of an old Cadillac. Accented with shiny chrome details, it's the ultimate in cool. The bag can be ordered online for $325, well worth the price for the authenticity and craftsmanship that goes into making these distinctive bags.

Not into the classic car look for your handbag? The site also features handbags designed with motifs of the classic 1950s pin up girls. Also available are cute retro inspired checkbook wallets that are available for as low as $16! These bags are the easiest way to go a little retro for the summer season.
