--By Po Chhim Avon handbags are perfect for the most stylish teenager and the fashionable adult short on time, but still in need of something cute. The Avon handbag I had the chance to test -- a large, black, basket-weave bag with a stringed ruffle on the closing zipper -- is incredibly cute with jeans and casual wear. Unfortunately, it is no longer available for purchase online, but that's okay by me -- I like the limited nature of this bag.
Which brings me to my favorite part of this line of handbags -- they are not so widely available on the market that anyone else can just go out and copy your style. At the under-$30 price tag, these bags are incredible values -- these are impulse purchases that you surely will never regret! After a few uses, any smart, stylish niece would be most excited to inherit them!
As for Avon jewelry -- I would say they, too, are good for the stylish teenager and budget-conscious college student. Although still in with the current trends, the quality of the jewelry is matching of the price, which is not bad, but not something I could really wear for several hours. (Admittedly, I have an allergy to metals and general fake jewelry.) Although I would not buy them for myself, I certainly would buy Avon jewelry for my teenage niece, thereby making her the best-adorned 14-year-old at her high school.
