Fashion Highlight: Joy Gryson IIIBeCa Purses (chic and charitable and worn by Jessica Alba!)

April 3, 2013

Do you check out other women’s outfits?

Admit it, you totally do right?

Of course it can be a little easier to check out celebrity’s fashions since we can easily flip through their pictures in magazines and on websites.  I actually remember seeing this picture of Jessica Alba a few months ago and remembering “Oh that’s a cool bag” and “Hmm, pastel colored skinnies aren’t too bad”.  So it was funny to see a picture from the same Jessica Alba shopping trip on Glamour recently.  Luckily, the article introduced me to Jessica’s purse and enabled me to add a new designer crush to my list.

Jessica Alba’s purse is from the IIIBeCa line by Joy Gryson.  I not only love the vegetable tanned leathers and timeless designs, but the fact that a portion of all proceeds go to three charities: the 9/11 Memorial, Family Focus Adoption Services, and Memorial Sloan Kettering (all so important to NYC!)  I also love how the names reflect popular streets downtown. I’m just waiting for the Chambers bag now!

Here are the signature bags in the line (don’t you love ALL the colors – I’m debating between baby blue, yellow or raspberry!):

    These bags are great, and the prices are right! I am in the market for a new, structured tote, so will definitely check out the Reade Street Tote as an option 🙂

    So funny, I LOVE Joy Gryson bags- have 2 myself- and always follow Jessica Alba’s style! So feminine and chic. X

      Julie – how cool that you love Joy Gryson bags. I wondered what her bags were like IRL. Jessica Alba is styling as are you so I’ll definitely look into getting a messenger bag or two!

  • Julie & Lauren April 3, 2013 at 09:46

    My fav bag designer!

  • Oh to Be a Muse April 3, 2013 at 12:03

    Honestly, all of these bags look great. I couldn’t pick a favorite, but I do like the raspberry color. Love that the proceeds go to charity.

    • Chic 'n Cheap Living April 3, 2013 at 12:14

      Cheryl, it’s hard for me to pick a favorite too! I’ll definitely have to get at least one messenger bag and count that as one of my charitable donations this year 😉

  • Diana Mieczan April 3, 2013 at 12:04

    I totally do and I adore her style. It’s understated yet super stylish. That bag rocks. Muah, darling

    These styles are all so cute and I love the colors. I heard Joy Gryson just opened up a shop in Tribeca recently. I really must stop by soon.

    It was 61 in NYC on Monday and for the past couple of days it’s gone back down to the 40’s so the Spring temps haven’t quite hit yet.

    of course i check out what other women are wearing, I mean, I only dress for other women. lets face it, men are only interested in what you aren’t wearing.

    Love these bags, great classic shapes and fun colors!

    I’m loving all of them, especially The Raspberry envelope. That trio is rather unique I must say!
