Parazul Designer Scarfbag and Classic Handbag- Review & Giveaway (US & Canada)!

I love beautiful handbags. I have a variety of favorites that have been lovingly collected over the years because of their beauty and quality. Handbags, like shoes, are something I always believed are worth investing in, to have a good quality item that lasts for years, doesn't go out of style, and garners admiration (and maybe a little envy).


Some time ago I heard about Parazul handbags. Actually, I saw it first, fell in love, and then went about finding out what company makes these beautiful handbags. I recently had the opportunity to review one, the white Scarf Bag, and now have a new company to add to my favorites. These over-sized everything bags are beautiful, classically designed, useful, and well-made. The white Scarf Bag comes a 100% silk beige logo scarf and the Parazul logo charm (shown in the photos), and you can also purchase other charms and scarves to change the look of your bag for year-round use. As you can see, I tried adding a bow to my scarf on the side instead of a central tie, and there are many way you can decorate and alter your own Parazul bag for variety and fun.

What I love about Parazul Handbags:

♥ They are attractive. These handbags have a very classic look. From the great shapes, style options, and leather trim, to the great range of color choices and accessories, there is an endless combination of looks, and these handbags can be used for work or every day, travel or for a nice evening out.

♥ They are stylish. Some looks never go out of style. The designs of Parazul's various bags have been in style for years, and will continue to be fashionable.

♥ They are well-made. The body is a sturdy coated canvas, the trim is leather, the scarves are silk, and everything is made to last years of use. Since these handbags are not trendy but rather styled for long-term use, their quality makes them a great investment.

♥ They are useful. Parazul handbags have lots of well-placed, sturdy, roomy pockets. The scarf bag is over-sized at 16"x4.5"x13" and can be used for an everyday bag, a diaper bag, or even as a very stylish briefcase. There are two large pockets on one side that make it perfect for moms to use as a diaper bag (I put wipes and diapers in those large pockets). 

♥ They are customizable. You can pick the handbag, the colors, the accessories; mix and match to fit your personal style and your life. It's actually really fun to try out the different combinations on their site, and a little addictive too. You may decide to go with a neutral color so you can wear it with everything, or have fun and get one that pops a little more and adds color to your wardrobe.

♥ They are versatile. A Parazul handbag can be worn when you wear a summer dress, a suit for work, are travelling, going out for the evening, etc. You can choose a handbag in the size and colors that will most fit your lifestyle.

♥ They are fun! A pretty handbag with a stylish look that draws looks and compliments is always a great thing. Being able to change the accessories for a totally new look makes it even more fun.

If you love handbags from Dooney & Bourke or Coach, you will love Parazul handbags. They are similar in style (the edge, trimming, accessories, etc), materials and quality, even more customizable than D & B, and Parazul bags are more affordable. Parazul designer handbags will allow you to have designer handbags in the exact look you want, at a more reasonable price, so you can afford to get a few different styles as well.

Buy it! Parazul offers a selection of beautiful designer handbags in your choice of color, such as the Mini Bags, only $75 and ideal for an evening out, the Classic Bags, perfect for everyday use, the Scarf Bag, for a sophisticated look for work or moms, and many others.
