What I look most forward to on the 4th of July are sunshine, food, and fireworks.

Whether you're hitting up the beach or a family barbecue don't forget to celebrate Independence Day in style. One of the simplest ways to show off your holiday spirit is to accessorize with a festive handbag. Inspired by red, white, and blue and Summer- here are my 4 picks to carry on the 4th! 

Top: Kate Spade Fiesta Park Quinn Straw Tote ($275)- The color combination is the perfect pop of color. Nothing says summer like a beautiful woven straw bag.

As you might recall, I recently posted a blog about charitybuzz at the beginning of the month.  For those that missed it (shame on you!), charitybuzz.com is an online auction that benefits non-profit organizations.  They also work closely with celebrities, luxury services and goods to auction off items and VIP experiences.

Here are four handbags that are currently up for auction until June 30th.

 After being a part of the blogosphere, I realized there are a lot of Mommy Blogs out there.  I know you have a very busy life and don't have the time to search the internet for bags, so I scoured our favorite designers to bring you the 5 hottest diaper bags!  By the way, this list also helps all you ladies out there who have baby showers to go to!
