Last week I had the opportunity to preview Henri Bendel’s Summer and Spring collections and O.M.G. The bags and jewelry set to hit stores in April are absolutely swoon worthy! When the elevator doors opened to the previewing floor in Bendel’s flagship store, I was welcomed by a jungle of orange and pink handbags and wallets. My eye immediately went to the candy colored structured backpacks, specifically the baby pink one, which I’ve already placed on my 2016 wishlist. As I continued my showroom tour, I saw vibrant blues and yellows for the new jetsetter collection, as well as an entire travel section designed in Bendel’s iconic brown and white stripes. Bendel’s designers also included a lot of classic bag styles, each finished with an updated tassel. I’m especially excited about the pink pom pom beach tote coming to stores for summer. Take my word for it, it’s adorable! Let me know your favorite piece in the comments!
