Day 16: Michael Kors’ Hamilton is the Recessionista’s Birkin
Posted on | December 16, 2009
So when I got a memo last month from LUCKY about a new product they were launching with Michael Kors I was thrilled to find it was a custom Hamilton bag. I have loved the Hamilton style since it’s launch and am torn whether to deem my favorite the burgundy and gold or the luggage and gold.
Holiday Gifting Calendar: Day 16

PRODUCT: Michael Kors Gold Hamilton North South Tote
Michael Kors teamed up with Lucky Magazine to bring you this stunning gold Hamilton North South Tote. It does come in other more traditional colors, all of which I love but it is selling out quickly so go out and get yours today. Some of my favorite colors of this tote are burgundy, camel and black. The style is very traditional and a classic staple bag for any woman’s wardrobe. If you can not afford a multi-thousand dollar bag this is an awesome bag to carry, it looks much more expensive than it is and it’s styling has true staying power. Michael Kors and Nordstrom are sold out online already but here is your secret hook-up to buy it on the Lucky website….one of the perks of knowing a Lucky Magazine Alpha Shopper!!!
WHERE TO BUY: At the Michael Kors store at Northpark or online HERE
PRICE: $298

The holiday shop at Northpark and other area malls will sell pre-packaged 1lb and 2lbs boxes of candies, ready for gift giving. Want to special order a custom box. Go to See’s Candies online and pick exactly what you want, from Mrs. See’s this year.
