Miche Bags - Designer HandBags You Can Customize

Have you seen Miche Bags yet? They are the latest rage. Marissa, my hairdresser and friend, sells them on the side through home parties. I got invited to a Miche bag party by another friend and must say that I think these bags are pretty cool!

How it Works

Basically you buy a bag base in whatever size you like and then you can easily change out the outside cover (called shells) with whatever designs you like. So, you own one handbag, but the outside covers change for many different looks. At times new shells are added and others are retired.

Women of all ages were at the party and I couldn't believe how many bags Marissa sold. Janet bought one for her mother-in-law for Christmas as she is hard to shop for. Tammi bought several - one Miche Bag for herself, one for her college age daughter and a mini size for her 8 year old.
They seem to be pretty sturdy and well made. I want one, but am going to have to wait until my Christmas shopping is done. :)

You can purchase Miche Bags online and they will be shipped to your address. Most women love the classic size, but I recommend the Big Bag size for tall women. The bundle deals give you a bit of a discount. For the Big Bag Bundle, you can purchase a 1 Big Bag base and it comes with 2 Big Bag Shells for just $99.95. (Note the Big Bag base is different from the Classic Base in that it slips inside the shells. The classic size shells hooks on the outside of the base by magnets.)

Note: when you purchase through Marissa's Miche Website, I will earn a credit that I hope to use for my Mother's Christmas present. (I hope she doesn't read this blog.)

My favorite Miche Big Bag Shells are:
