Fashion Favorites // My Konfigur Bag

The “Avenue Allure” in 4 different styles

Growing up, my Mom was quite the fashionista (still is) and taught me a couple important fashion lessons in life:
1. Always look your best for the occasion, no matter what it is.
2. Wear colors.
3. Make sure your bag matches your outfit.

I still carry these lessons with me today, but I will say, I’ve lagged on number 3 quite a bit. I used to be a whiz at making sure my bag matched my outfit, spending nights before a big event finding the “it purse” in my closet to perfectly match my #OOTD. Nowadays, I consistently use the same large Michael Kors tote for work, going out and running errands; Lord knows that as much as I would like to have the time to change my purse for everyday, I just don’t always have the time. Plus, Gedalya and I are on a strict budget, so I’ve taken a step back from making any major or minor fashion purchases unless it is extremely needed. I’ve tried making my case that a Hermès Birkin Bag is NEEDED in my life, but I guess Gman doesn’t necessarily see that as a “fashion emergency”. (PS - Totally kidding as a Birkin is waaayyyy out of budget right now, but a girl can dream!)

As fate would have it, I was able to snag a couple purses during this financial journey. I needed something:

  1. Functional

  2. Versatile

  3. Beautifully Designed

I came across Konfigur Bags and saw how versatile and beautifully crafted the bags were. The brand has three bags in The City Collection, each one made to give you 8 different styling options, Avenue Allure, Happy Hour Hustle and Cabaret Cherie. All the purses come with two different designs on each small and large purse, two nickle hardware pieces to put your bag together, a long crossbody strap and a small wristlet strap. Although each set comes with a small and large bag, it also has the functionality to be used as a large crossbody using both bags, or as a clutch with either the small or large bag (or even both!).

Being able to easily change up the design of my purse is what attracted me most to Konfigur bags. I love that the colors are neutral, making them very multifaceted to pair with different outfits in my closet. Currently, I’ve been pairing my fall outfits with the Avenue Allure and Happy Hour Hustle purses.

My favorite look with my Avenue Allure Bag. The gray/silver leopard-print leather paired with the black/blue python-print leather is my favorite combination.

I love the different contrasting prints the Avenue Allure has!

These nickel hardware pieces are easy to use and hold the bag together perfectly!

Twist the screw, pick your design, slide in the purses into the hardware pieces on each side and voila!

I recently used my bags for a trip back home to Michigan to see my brother and go to a wedding. Since I’m used to a larger bag, I made sure to carry only my essentials, but I was able to fit what I needed in both the small and large clutch. I mainly used the Avenue Allure bag as a crossbody, but when I attended the wedding, I decided to use it as a clutch and it worked out so well!

Here’s a second bag from their collection, the Happy Hour Hustle.

I love using this bag in this contrasting style as the smaller white pebble print clutch stands out so well against the black alligator print.

The great thing about having a couple different purses from Konfigur is that I can mix and match the bags as I please for maximum styling options. Recently, I mixed the Happy Hour Hustle’s small shiny pewter leather bag with the Avenue Allure’s large black/blue python-print leather bag. The dark color options pairs well with my current favorite fall outfit.
