THIS is a sale you DO NOT want to miss.  It happens every year and every year the deals get better and better.  This year, I got a preview of one of the most coveted items to be sold at the Gus Mayer Champagne Sale; a Rebecca Minkoff Finn Crossbody bag.  It is fantastic.

Here are a few of the things I love about this bag.  First, the fringe.  I mean, what isn’t there to love about fringe.  This bag is all leather, so the fringe is heavy, which means that it’s not über obnoxious to carry around.  Second, it’s convertible!  The crossbody strap is removable, so it can also be carried as a clutch.  Third, it’s not only adorable on the outside, but has a cute patterned lining on the inside.  Finally, the size.  Not too small, but not too big.  It measures 9.5″W X 6″H X .25″D, so it’s big enough to carry your phone and wallet, but small enough to carry as a clutch.

I snuck a peek and also saw this bag in cognac, so be sure to be there right at 4pm to ensure that you get first pick of the bags.  I have a feeling these bags are going to sell out in seconds!  Here’s the 411 on the Gus Mayer Champagne Sale happening this Thursday:
