Secrets of the Bad Boys in Your Closet: Part 5

Our designer Nicole was feeling a little inspired this week, and I'm sure you can guess why...because there is a new Mister to name!!! By now, we don't take any of these Misters as a loss - because you, I, and our designer receive nothing but fashionable gain (a sense that the girls these bad boys end up with could use.) When this time comes around, it's sometimes bittersweet, but always a treat for you ladies! We'd never send you in blind, unlike our designer's most recent decision for meeting her muse; so we've narrowed the choices down to two: Mr. Match and Mr. Insecure. So far, it looks like Mr. Insecure is in the lead. I guess this silly boy wasn't the only one around here letting his insecurities eat him up. We've definitely had a good laugh naming lots of handbags (all in good fun, of course) but we love turning to our d'andrea lovers for some help! What do you think? Also, if you could personalize your very own Mister with your ex-bf in mind, what would he be called? I know mine! But that's a whole other blog post in itself ;) Let us know on our Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram! xoxo

PS: If you missed the BIG ANNOUNCEMENT, our website had a facelift!

Photo Shoot Fun + DROP DATE!

Going through my iPhone camera pictures after a photo shoot is always surprising. After a long day of camera flashes you don't realize how complex the hours prior had really been! Seeing the final product makes it all worth it, but there's nothing like a behind the scenes shot. Now, I can't show you much or give away too many of the new colors, but below is a few of our concepts for the upcoming 2014 Mister Collection. I can and will tell you that we shot approximately 50 different bags and our designer even got behind the lens! It's so fun watching her in hair and make-up for a change! Enjoy and remember to stay updated on the DROP DATE of the new collection on our website: www.dandreahandbags.com, xoxo.

Boston Fashion Week: Models and Misters

Most of these Misters are true Bostonians at heart – Did you know that some of Nicole’s greatest loves were born in this city!? So, in honor of Boston Fashion Week, as it comes to an end, I thought I'd share how these boys celebrated their time…one word: Models! We spent October 2nd and 3rd at the Emerald Lounge inside the Revere Hotel partying it up VIP style. The runway was heating up with the hottest trends to come in SP14 that were hand selected from CKP Showroom on Newbury Street! I caught this steamy love affair between these gorgeous models and their new arm candy all on camera! See for yourself below, and be sure to pick up these Misters for yourself here, to bring to and create memories in your own city!

Did I mention that we held a contest to give away our very own Limited Edition "Boston Strong" Mr. Precarious?  He is the only one of his kind, and was specially designed for the 'Fashion is our Sanctuary' Fashion Show held back in May. This event was a very special one to us because it benefited The One Fund. Now, we are proud to say that the newest owner of this handbag will be going to one of Boston's very own Fashionista's! Stay tuned to hear the winner later this week, we will be sure to hashtag #MisterGiveaway on Twitter, so make sure you are following @dandreahandbags...xoxo
