About Me

I’m a bagaholic who turned her obsession into a career. I’ve been amassing a sizable handbag collection since the age of 16, when my sister bought me a LV Monogram Pouchet. While in college, I interned for various fashion magazines like InStyle and Cosmopolitan. In my senior year at NYU, I launched BagTrends.com – an online magazine devoted to all things bags. What began as a hobby, has grown into a full-fledged business. My sister, Michelle, has joined me in my persute to make the one beautiful one bagista at a time. We launched the BagTrends.com SHOP (http://www.BagTrends.com/shop.htm) during Olympus Fashion Week, back in February. The shop specializes in featuring emergind designers that we believe are the producing the next batch of it bags. In April 2006, I also launched a blog (http://bagtrends.blogspot.com/ ) to chronicle my adventures as a accessories writer, handbag buyer, and bag-a-licious girl about town.
