Versatile Misters

The greatest thing about The Mister Collection is the versatility. What's amazing about our designer is that she always is hands on during the process of creating each  and every piece. She definitely is not afraid to get her hands dirty! Also, Nicole designs the bags specifically to how she likes to wear them, as well as taking into consideration how modern day ladies style their accessories! Below is some of our most versatile Misters, get to know a little bit about how they work ;) xoxo

SHOP MR. NEVER AGAIN!

Style him three ways: With an adjustable leather weaved strap, you can carry him shoulder length, and cross body. Or you can opt out for the detachable chain completely and carry him as a clutch!

SHOP MR. HEARTTHROB!

Carry him one of two ways: zipped or unzipped. Not only is the double zipper stylish, the expand-ability also gives you more room in case you're the "travel heavy" type!  

SHOP MR. PLAYER!

Buckle Mr. Player up with three different lengths to go over your shoulder. Wear him crossbody for a carefree night out, or detach the strap all together to just throw into your larger handbag.

SHOP MR. ONE-NIGHTER!

With the option to go crossbody or hang from your shoulder, you be also be surprised to hear of an old trick that I've recently learned myself: knot him up at the very top for a shorter, clustered, and classic look.  

The possibilities are endless with these Misters! We'd love to see your versions of how you style yours!

Secrets of the Bad Boys in Your Closet: Part 3

It's Friday morning - the end of yet another work week and the start of a long Holiday weekend. I hope you grab your new Autumn lover Mister, and go out for some Fall festivities! If you're like me you're going to need a shot of espresso, and a little extra pumpkin in your chai to jump start today. But hold on, because your guilty pleasure is back! Friday means one more thing...and no I'm not talking about pay day...I'm talking about the 'Secrets of the Bad Boys in Your Closest!' If you're in a new relationship with these Misters and this is your first time stopping by this PR girl's blog, I'm revealing to you some more secrets about the boys that have inspired your new favorite collection of handbags! Trust me, you'll be fully committed, and surprised - after hearing a little more about Mr. Arrogant. As mentioned before, he's my favorite boy, the guy I'm always carrying. But I have to admit, I stole our designer's look, because he's Nicole's partner these days too. It causes some double takes at our daily lunch spot that we're always rocking the same handbag, but the Misters don't care...they love the attention!

Mr. Arrogant has A LOT of personas: a sibling, a co-worker, an old classmate. But lately, a certain ex-boyfriend has taken on the Mr. Arrogant title. Each one has a lot of similarities.Despite his bad boy impression, along with arrogance comes an Emotionally Unavailable, and Loving side to him too ;) He's a little selfish, high-maintenance, talks a big game, and put on the disappearing act for long periods of time. Although you think he just doesn't understand you, and isn't there, he always comes through at the last possible second! Even if it is by giving you a quick phone call while he's in a rushed situation. He's the guy who likes to play games; sometimes, we even joke that he's reading a manual about how to talk to girls! (There's no need to wait two full days in between each text message! If she wanted to write you a letter, she would - UPS would be faster than your responses!) Mr. Arrogant has enough of his own baggage and some room for yours too. But JUST  a little bit, because put a lot on his plate, and he'll run scared. He is the perfect Mister to have on any confident woman’s arm, because an arrogant guy, would never go for a girl that he was not proud of.

Secrets of the Bad Boys in Your Closest: Part 1

Current relationship status? My heart is currently taken...and sometimes breaking...by all the bad boy Misters in my closet! But I'm not the only one with a closet full of studs. Some of you may be wondering "why the misters?" or "how does Nicole come up with the names?" and the most frequently asked "does she really have THAT many ex-boyfriends?" Though it's already been revealed that Mr. Emotionally Unavailable, Mr. Arrogant, and Mr. Lover are all named after the same guy...I've finally got the go ahead to reveal to you some more secrets about the boys that have inspired your new favorite collection of handbags! You may be surprised to know that some of them aren't even named after ex-boyfriends! There may have been another lucky guy in Nicole's life who became her muse. I can't lie, some days we spend hours at the fabulous d'andrea office gossiping, sharing secrets, and swapping stories...and hers are too good not to tell! Every couple of blog posts I will reveal the origin behind one bag, before you've been introduced to every single one of these Misters! Up first in the hot seat: Mr. Stalker.

Mr. Stalker is the guy Nicole's fallen in love with a few times, but every time he just leaves her wondering "why?" Mr. Stalker's been stalking for so long that he's earned his Mister title. I hear this doesn't make the original d'andrea Misters happy....because they aren't fans of this bad boy either! Boys will be boys, and brothers will always try and protect their sisters! (Shhh, we don't mention him by name when they're around...) He's the guy who makes you want to turn the "read" off on your Iphone, the one who makes you slam that same phone back into your handbag at the nail salon, and opt for a magazine instead - oh, and don't forget those blocked calls you get every Saturday night! He's the type who you only keep around for when you're desperate for a date to a wedding, because you know he'll come running with a snap of a finger...that he's been dying to put a ring on! But, even sometimes his stalker-ish tendencies can't help but leave a girl secretly flattered.
