Kate Spade Large Flat Pouch
The animal print is exactly on trend right now, and the generous dimensions (10.1" x 7.2") mean plenty of stuff can be stashed inside. At $75, this eye-catching bag is a terrific way to get in on a high-end brand without breaking the bank.

Love the Red Toolbox line, which features tools sized just right for kids about 8 and up. Options including a hammer, drill and the like are scaled down to fit a kid's grip, but not dumbed down—these are real, sturdy, project-ready tools. Project kits include a birdhouse, billiard table, jewelry box and many others.
