The New Gigi New York Jenni Saddle Bag

Happy Friday everyone! It’s official, the Fall 2016 “it” bag has already made its way to the hands of every fashion influencer. I’m talking about the seventies style saddle bag and after almost a half a year of research and designing, Gigi New York and I have created the perfect bag!

I’m so excited that today is finally the launch of my newest handbag design with Gigi New York, the Jenni Saddle Bag! To celebrate we’re offering 20% OFF with code: HAUTE20 (code ends 8.21)

I’m constantly traveling and running all over town so I specifically designed the Jenni Saddle Bag for stylish girls on the go. Right now, there are so many different renditions of the saddle bag so I worked with the Gigi New York design team until we reached the perfect shape, size, length and style that would would dominate the saddle bag game. In fact, we tested out four different samples before producing the final bag. I created the Jenni Saddle bag to be petite enough to stay out of the way while also large enough to hold everything from your phone, keys, sunglasses, wallet, touch up makeup and more.

Scroll through this post to see how I styled my Jenni Saddle Bag in stone and tan.

My favorite aspect of the Jenni Saddle Bag is the full pocket across the backside of the bag to easily access essential items like your phone and keys. However, I also love the fact the that the tassel is a removable keychain in case you want to go for a sleeker look or swap out the tassel for a different color.

Follow along on social media this weekend as I takeover @GigiNewYork’s Instagram from Southern California with my blogger besties!

P.S. We’d love to see how you style your Jenni Saddle Bag so make sure to use hashtag #JenniOnTheGo on social media!

Hi everyone and Happy Sunday! I’m going to share the story behind these photos with you today. It’s really no spectacular story. I guess you might consider it more of an explanation.  I’m willing to bet that I’m not the only one who thinks this, but lately it’s been hard to find things in my closet to wear (other than casual jeans & a plaid shirt) to fit my mood because even though it’s technically still winter, my mind is already on pre-spring mode. I want to wear bright colors and lighter clothing, but it’s obviously still way too cold for that. So when Kaela (my photographer) showed up to my house recently for a blog photo shoot, she of course found me throwing things around in my office/closet and totally unprepared for the shoot!  I decided that due to my lack of outfit inspiration, I’d rather explore Downtown Covington until I felt more inspired. So we did! In case you didn’t catch on, Downtown Covington is where I live.

It was such a beautiful day and during our little venture we came across the lovely English Tea Room. The quaint old patio and bright red telephone booth looked so adorable that I couldn’t help myself and insisted that we pause the exploration to stop for hot tea and freshly baked scones. Our waiter was so sweet and knowledgable about all of the teas. He even remembered what I ordered from one of my previous visits! Hopefully he’ll remember next time too because I already forgot the name of my tea! Haha! Anyway after stopping to enjoy ourselves on that beautiful afternoon, we couldn’t leave the English Tea Room without a little photo opt in the telephone booth! I mean, can you blame me!  If you ever find yourself wandering around Downtown Covington, make sure to stop by for afternoon tea and delicious scones hot out the oven!
