Savvy Chic Bags - Your Best Online Source for Affordable Fashion Handbags and Accessories

Welcome to Savvy Chic Bags's Blog!

Savvy Chic Bags is an online handbag and fashion accessories boutique. In 2010, like so many other small retailers we had to close our beautiful boutique located on Ellsworth Ave. in Pittsburgh's Shadyside shopping district as a result of the economic climate.

But you can still shop Savvy Chic Bags online at http://www.scbags.com/, and we still specialize in unique, trendy, and most of all affordable handbags and fashion accessories.

And check this blog often for fashion information, new arrivals, and anything fashion related, and some things that aren't!

How do you feel about clip-on earrings?

I've always loved earrings, and especially large earrings.  But when my daughter was a baby she would grab my earrings every chance she got, ripping my piercings just a little more each time.  Along with that and the weight of my earrings, eventually my right ear split all the way through and I haven't been able to wear pierced earrings for at least the last 10 years.  Which means I've been forced to wear the dreaded "clip-on" earrings.

I don't know about you, but I'm sure that I've never found a pair of clip-ons that I  really liked.  Stores usually have a minimal selection, and let's face it, the styles are usually more suited to the age 70 and above crowd! 

Recently I found an earring supplier that has a huge selection of clip-ons in all types of styles and I'm thinking about adding them to our inventory, but first I want to gauge any interest before we invest in them.  I know there are lots of women out there like me who have split ears, plus the women who have never had pierced ears; quite a few women used to come into my shop and ask me about them, so I figure there must be lots of women out there wishing for stylish non-pierced earrings just like I am.

Anyway, let me know what you think about clip earrings.  I'll be more than happy to carry them if I see enough interest!

New Jewelry Just In!

Here is a sampling of some jewelry pieces we just got in-we don't even have them on our website yet, but I couldn't wait for you to see them.  They should be on the site for sale today or tomorrow.


These flower summer bracelets are so much fun!  It's a 3 strand stretch bracelet of aqua and clear beads, with an oversized 2" flower accent trimmed in silvertone.  $15






This bracelet boasts four strands of small vibrant chunks of color, interspersed with silvertone bars.  The silvertone flower accent displays multi-color faux gemstones for extra color.  $15

This heart charm bracelet is one of my favorites.  Silvertone, with graduated sizes of stylized hearts, it's lightweight yet gives the appearance of heavy heart charms.  I love the chain braclet and easy to use large lobster clasp.  $22 

These beautiful goldtone and rhinestone chandelier style earrings are perfect for turning an ordianry outfit into something special.  A 3" drop, at $15 they are the perfect addition to your jewelry collection.                                                                                     


Don't forget to keep checking the website to check out these pieces and others; and just so you know, we plan to keep adding to our jewelry collection.

We haven't gone away!

We're back!

Sorry people, I haven't posted anything for quite a while; we closed our Ellsworth Ave. boutique on Memorial Day and we have been so busy with the closing that I just couldn't seem to find the time to post anything.  But I'm back and I promise to post as often as I can!  So stop back in the next few days to see what's new...we've got some really cute new bags in, and some really fun jewelry that I know you're gonna love...
