If you follow Maxene Magalona on Instagram, then you know that a chic hand-carry is a must-have in all of her #OOTDs. Her bag collection is nothing short of lust-worthy and always gives her outfits that final magic touch.

From a Balenciaga classic to a Moschino statement piece, we ask the bagaholic to list 5 of her trusty totes and how each of them completes her looks. Check out her picks below:

1. Louis Vuitton Neverfull MM

“I love how I can just throw everything I need into this bag and it won’t ever feel too heavy. I’ve had it for so many years now, and its quality is still very good. I even bring it with me to the beach! It’s totes amazing!”

2. Moschino McDonald’s Handbag

“I love this bag because it’s as quirky and colorful as my personality. Plus, it’s the perfect pop of color whenever I wear black and white outfits.”

3. Balenciaga Velo

“This is my only black bag and I just got it last year after realizing that all my bags were brightly colored. I love it because it’s perfect for travelling! I love using bags that I can easily sling over my shoulder when I’m on vacation. It makes it easier for me to go around!”

4. Givenchy Pandora

“This is another favorite of mine because I love how classy its color looks with my outfits. And because its color is neutral, I won’t ever have a hard time pairing it with my clothes. It was a gift from my boyfriend so I consider it very special.”

5. Balenciaga First

“This one is my absolute favorite just because it was my dad’s last Christmas gift to me. Every time I use it, I remember how much he loved sharing his blessings with his loved ones. I miss him everyday.”

Wonderful Zipper Bag Idea – DIY

In creating this lovely purse that is woven out of zippers, the bags that are often seen in the airport gift shops were the  main point of inspiration. You can make your own using the colors shown or any combination that works best for your outfits.

You will need:
– zippers in different colors;
– glue;
– pins;
– scissors.

First, on a flat surface, lay out and weave the zippers according to the images shown. Get the sides of the zippers together and secure them temporarily by pinning them. Starting from the bottom corner, glue the ends of all the zippers making sure you maintain a consistent pattern of the woven by trimming off the ends. When the bottom part is woven and glued you can take off the pins and trim the end of each zipper, weave in the ends on the top and the raw edges under a vertical zipper. Next, wrap the top ends of the vertical zipper’s margins over the top horizontal zipper and glue. Afterwards, take two zippers, cut them about 10” and glue them to the underneath top edge of the tote. To finish the bag, cover up all raw ends by taking any left scraps of zippers and glue them to the zippers around the inside guideline of the tote. Have fun!

Shoe Rack Ideas

Hola Misyellelovers! Need more space for your shoes? Unlike T-shirts, sneakers can’t just be folded and dropped neatly into a drawer. Don't worry again Misyellelovers, we have 5 ideas to make your shoes collection organized like a pro!

1. REPURPOSE WALL MOLDINGS

If you love your high heels, why not show them off? Option one: Take inspiration from Jenna McArthur, who transformed a disassembled picture frame into an array of wall-mounted display racks. Option two: Buy wall moldings from your local home improvement store, cut them to size, paint them and—finally—hang ‘em up.

2. ASSEMBLE PVC PIPE CUBBIES

Normally, PVC pipe hides behind drywall, but here it takes center stage as the basis for another creative DIY shoe rack. According to Cookie Loves Milk, the biggest challenge you may encounter in completing this project is persuading the supply store to cut the pieces. Otherwise, it’s only a matter of glue.

3. INSTALL FLOATING SHELVES

Check out not martha to see how Megan built hers from plywood and poplar, and then sanded and stained the rack for a finished look.

4. SUSPEND WIRE HANGERS

Save floor space by storing footwear on the wall, either on the back of your closet or in a bedroom corner. Best for sandals and flat-soled shoes, this DIY shoe rack involves little more than regular wire clothing hangers and string, yarn, or rope. Savannah at OH SO PRETTY the DIARIES shares the easy how-to.
