Matt & Nat 2 Day Handbag Sale

Dec 02, 2010 / 1 Comment

Yet again, Beyond the Rack is featuring one of my favorite brands, Matt & Nat! I am still loving my Matt & Nat diaper bag and do not need another handbag, but they are tempting. I’m trying to convince myself not to spend the credit in my account on a wallet…

Matt and Nat specialize in stylish, eco-friendly designs that utilize many vegan and recycled materials. I can attest that their quality is great – the bag I have looks and feels amazing and really stands apart from my cheaper bags. Prices for this sale start at $19.

Here are a couple of my favorite handbag styles and colors from the sale, which ends in two days (or when products run out):

Matt and Nat Depeche Handbag in RustMatt and Nat Zooey Handbag in Blue

Their “Rust” shade (shown above on the Depeche Handbag, $59) is a dark camel and I love the chain and stud hardware details on the Blue Zooey Handbag above ($69). Many of the bags listed for sale are available in these colors. The diaper bag I have is still available on the site in white only.

This is the wallet I’m talking myself out of ($24):

Matt and Nat 8Track Wallet in Red

If you sign up at Beyond the Rack, I get a $10 credit when you make your first purchase – Refer your own friends and you can do the same. Shipping takes awhile (My Matt and Nat diaper bag showed up around a month after I made the purchase) but at around 50% the original retail price, it was well worth the wait.

Upcoming sales on BTR include Matt and Nat jewelry, Nine West, and XOXO.

Matt & Nat Sale + New (Diaper) Bag!

Jun 11, 2010 / 4 Comments

When I saw a Matt & Nat sale pop up in my inbox yesterday, I had to scope it out immediately. I’ve been lusting after a Matt & Nat handbag for years but always found an excuse not to purchase. Browsing the sale lazily in bed yesterday morning, I fell for two bags on the site, each under $100! I love the color and style of the Sascha Pebbled Handbag in Coral (still on sale) but ultimately went for the larger Goldie Perforated Diaper Bag.

Matt & Nat Goldie Perforated Diaper Bag in TealI am so excited to receive this bag! I was pretty set on ordering from the get-go, but being able to classify my new bag as a ‘baby purchase’ removes any residual guilt!

I will probably be rocking this bag from the moment I get it so hopefully I’m still in love with it when Baby comes at the end of September!

As of right now, there are still some Matt & Nat items left on Beyond the Rack, ranging in price from $20-75, including some wallets and seriously cute bags. My shipping was less than $10 and hopefully my bag gets to me quickly!

My links are my own referral code, so if you make a purchase I receive $10 towards shopping the site. When you sign up you will receive your own unique link and can earn site credit when your friends sign up.
