I have very exciting news to share. As you may recall, last October I appeared on HSN, The Home Shopping Network, to discuss holiday trends and LUCE handbags. Well, tune in June 27th as I come in to chat up summer/early fall trends and CALLA Handbags.
CALLA is a new diffusion line from charm and luck designer Jenny Syquia. charm and luck is a huge celebrity favorite, as seen on Beyonce, Lindsey Lohan and others. CALLA, which stands for Charm And Luck Los Angeles, has similar style-conscious bagistas in mind. But, the best part about this brand is the pricing will not burst your wallet. Retailing from $60 to $110, CALLA is made from high-quality, man-made leather and animal embossed prints. On June 27th, I'll present present the CALLA Concorde Satchel as the ‘Today Special’ on HSN - times to be announced soon. The croco-embossed satchel will retail at the Today's Special price of $59.90. Color options will include camel, bronze, rose, steel and black.
I'm obsessing over the grayish/gunmetal color that they will be calling Steel. It's the perfect year-around color, and if you have enough black this is a really nice change without going too far away from your comfort zone. The other color that rocks my world is camel. In the croco material and gold hardware, the camel has a lux look at a fraction of the cost. If this bag were made in another material it would be about 50-100x more, depending on the designer. With all your savings you could go on one REALLY fabulous family vacation!
I hope you all tune in to HSN on June 27th and indulge in some affordable, bag-a-licious luxury. With gas hitting $5 a gallon, it doesn't mean you can't have your new bag! If you're not familiar with CALLA bags, you won't be sorry that you've taken a chance.
Oh and do call in to the show :). I can't wait to chat with you!
Have a bag-a-licious day!

I have always loved the C&L bags, but found them to be a little cost-prohibitive. Looking forward to seeing you and the new (less-expensive!) line on HSN. :-)

Hey Bagista Bea,
How fun is your site!! Everyone check out http://homeshoppingqueen.blogspot.com/.
Bea, if you can, do mention the upcoming CALLA Today's Special on your site. I know the designers would be thrilled to have such an enthusiastic voice behind them :).
Wait until you see the bags. If you love charm and luck, you'll flip. I'm about to head out the door for a pr event in Manhattan and the camel satchel is coming with me. $59! can't go wrong!
Have a bag-a-licious day!
