The combination of soft leather and beautiful colors creates an attractive long lasting purse. MtnMama and I met with Ellington at the Winter OR Show. We asked if they had any products that would appeal to our very active female readers. We were then introduced to their line of travel and active lifestyle bags which are lightweight and durable. They are made out of nylon so they wipe clean and don’t attract dog hair, which is very important in my house. Annie Convertible Tote/Pack MSRP: $54.00  Dimensions: H 11” / W 8.5” / D 5” / Strap drop length 26" (as tote) I was able to take a closer look at their Annie Convertible Tote/Pack. A simple strap adjustment turns this shoulder bag into a back pack which can be used for short hikes, trips to the beach, or just running errands. The two side pockets are easy to access and perfect for a bottle of water and snacks.

Inside there are many pockets which make it easy to locate things on the trail and there is even enough room to stash a light extra layer.   Amelia In-flight Tote MSRP: $84.00  Dimensions: H ” W ” D ”H 12” / W 12–18” / D 9” / Straps 11.5” drop length And I (MtnMama) was lucky enough to get to test the Amelia In-flight Tote. backpack dpuAs a very active mother, I would have loved to have this handbag when my son was younger. dell tek backpack 17 inchThis tote is also made with nylon so it's very easy to clean. rilakkuma backpack malaysiaThere are tons of pockets that offer easy access, security and a sense of sanity when you need a "place" to keep a cell phone or keys. lacoste backpack olx

A few of my favorite things about this bag is the inner elastic pocket for water bottles or baby bottles. It keeps the drinks upright and I haven't had any issues with leaks or spills. The back side of the tote unzips to offer the option to have a large pocket or the ability to slide the tote on a suitcase handle.

Mr. Spada, represented in the house with a modest-looking, monochromatic study, added: ''People are so savvy about how they want to live and don't want to live. Interior design has shot itself in the foot, like the couture business. How many times can you see a red room and get excited about it? Life isn't about setting trends anymore. What's comfortable, what's value for the money -- that's what's beautiful to clients.'' The house quickly contradicted him. At least 7 of the 16 rooms, including the smallest, would cost a client more than $1 million, retail.''Toni Raeymaekers asked anxiously. Her eyes clock-swept the ''Shangri-La'' bedroom, counting: ''A million, three;

But she's $750,000, all by herself -- Liz.'' She was speaking of the sphinx-like Andy Warhol silk-screen of Elizabeth Taylor above the bed. The figure did not include fees for the designers, Anderson, Papachristidis, Raeymaekers Interiors.Greg Jordan's painted contact-papered sitting room -- a kind of Newport Lite, despite an $850,000 Persian rug -- was $2.2 million.What stylistic trends there were were of the deconstructed variety. Traditional decoration trumped contemporary design, which showed up with no news or radical views. Even at a price, formality was less formal. The house, built in 1895, was redesigned in 1925 by Cass Gilbert, the Woolworth Building architect. Mario Buatta, who chose Mr. Gilbert's oval, wood-paneled Georgian dining room, created an evening sitting room instead. Cost: $1 million plus. The most formal space was a lounge: John Barman and John Levy's plastic-mirror-paneled, 1970's-inspired disco stair-landing. It was perfectly authentic to my worst nights as a 25-year-old.

I love a quiet evening at home. By 9, I was pacing Beverly Ellsley's Provencal stone-floored eat-in kitchen, gobbling microwave popcorn: a good sign. I pace at home. At 10, I marched to the top of the house, two bags of Thai takeout in hand, to deploy the late-model entertainment system in Richard Mishaan's atelier, provided by Philips Electronics. Mr. Mishaan said the sleek skylighted space was conceived as a home office for a plastic surgeon. It included two flat-screen digital televisions, a DVD player, a wireless keyboard and mouse, Web access and seven remote controls that I happened upon, dumped in a white ceramic pot across the room.There is much ballyhoo in the house this year about the seamless ease that the newest technology is introducing into the home. I lined the remotes up in a semicircle on Mr. Mishaan's coffee table, pointing them at the wall-mounted screens like approaching tanks. Two and a half hours later, the mango chicken sat ignored and cold in its box. I had ''The English Patient'' without sound on the top screen.

I had no Internet connection, but I did have an Italian television station whose programming turned smutty at midnight.Not the designer's fault; but I had a few tips for Mr. Mishaan, too. The fabulous room's recessed ceiling lighting was inflexible, operated by two switches that turned the room on or off by halves. Making warm pockets of light where the three inviting seating groups were was a chore that involved moving lamps. Two back-to-back sofas were too tall, segregating two sides of the room. A pair of settees had no side tables to rest a glass on; the leather ottoman between them would be a precarious surface. Mr. Mishaan's plastic surgeon doesn't rest glasses. ''You never do,'' the designer explained, ''because at a cocktail party you can't drink fast enough.''The room's bark-patterned carpet provided promised calm; the artwork, including a Donald Baechler painting of an ice cream sundae, propelled the probable cost past $1 million. I slept that night in the yellow-striped David Anthony Easton Inc. bedroom, designed by Stewart Manger.

I gave a $3,500 circa 1880 jasparware urn perched on a console a run for its money when I skittled it briefly looking for a baseboard plug for my cellular phone.Nested into two scalloped-edge European square pillows against a bamboo headboard, I was awakened at 2 by an Unidentified Fringed Object hitting me in the face: a $1,200 needlepoint reading pillow.At 8 a.m., pigeons cooed at the windows. Inside, two standard poodle-size topiaries sat like trusty dogs waiting for their master to rise. I slammed my slippers on, making the four-floor spiraled descent to the kitchen, past ''Shangri-La,'' past Mr. Barman's Studio 54, like breaks in a blackout hangover.I settled with coffee in Mr. Jordan's sitting room. The Russian Empire mahogany writing desk and French Empire gilded armchair proved, despite appearances, the best place to work in the house: steady pieces of furniture for a laptop with an outlet next to them and a visual command of the room, which is rich with intelligent companionship.''

I wanted the room to be full enough of furniture so that if one came in alone, you wouldn't feel lonely in the room -- no great holes of space,'' Mr. Jordan said. The designer also chose fabrics that were warm and inviting: mellow, antique-colored silks and velvets.The room is deceptively traditional, and younger than it looks. Though the furnishings share a classical poise, they range in period from a French 18th-century Louis XV bergere to two new resin garden tables. ''Do I think we're braving new worlds? Not particularly,'' the designer said. ''People aren't as afraid of luxury as they used to be, but people want comfort, they want to live in all of their rooms, because they cost money to build, they cost money to decorate. They don't want show rooms.''Do they want 11 pillows in bed with them? My lumbar lost track at 6. I lounged in ''Shangri-La,'' under Liz's violet gaze, for three hours, reading, napping and avoiding decisions, which the huge coconut of a bed was perfect for.Time flies when you're having a bon temps.

I paid my American Express bill in Michael Simon's very authentic French 18th-century drawing room. ''I like very serene and peaceful, refined environments,'' Mr. Simon, who is a trained composer, told me. ''Obviously, I'm a fairly academic person, and my work is not trendy in any way.'' He was being modest; three Louis XVI armchairs had ochre ostrich-skin upholstery, which he ran to ground at a ranch in Texas. As I wrote my checks, Mr. Simon's room reassured me that the money would come from somewhere, that there was nothing that marriage or a death in the family couldn't solve. I had a fight with Con Edison on the telephone; the circa 1780 salon with the embroidered moire walls stayed in my corner like a card-playing courtesan during the recordings and the 12-minute wait.By 5, I was late for cocktails. I was the only guest. I dressed in an Art Deco closet designed by DeBare Saunders and Ronald Mayne, a narrow slipper of a space with shagreen-paper walls and two pink fluorescent sconces -- ocean-liner salvage.

Though mirrors stared from both walls, there was not a full-length mirror for that last head-to-toe.I was seated with a drink, in Mr. Buatta's oval sitting room. The chatty arrangement of chairs, a back-to-back sofa, a bar table, a framed photograph of the designer with Nancy Kissinger and other mementos provides social encouragement, like a skilled host. It is an art, like conversation, that decoration achieves, that style can't.''Look at a house, or a room, after a party, to see where everything landed, where guests moved things,'' Mr. Buatta told me, earlier in the week. ''See the way your friends have rearranged your furniture, so that they were comfortable. It's the way your rooms really work best.'' I asked Mr. Buatta, for instance, where I would put my glass. ''Right here,'' he said, indicating a $60,000 China Trade table, circa 1810. ''Use the ashtray for a coaster,'' he said. The ashtray was an 18th-century tea saucer.Checking out of the decorated house at noon on Easter Sunday, I walked to Fifth Avenue to flag a taxi.
