Tie me up!

Handbags, much like men, come in all shapes and sizes. Large, small, annoying, charming, sassy, athletic, should I go on?  One trend that is really popular right now for handbags (not men) is drawstring.

The drawstring detail is more casual then professional but it can easily go from day to night.

Deux Lux, Studded Drawstring bag, $93

This bag is in such a sweet color but edgey with the studs.  I love it!

Fossil, Camille Satchel, $98

The mix of fabrics here is gorgeous and the embroidery is super unique.

Target, Mossimo Supply Co. Gray Drawstring, $25

Talk about your four season, dress up or down bag! It's the definition of versatile.

Macy's, Marc Fisher Drawstring handbag, $73

I love the hardware on this bag, it's very motorcycle ready!

As you can see the drawstring bag comes in a handful of styles: bucket, tote, shoulder, etc.  I think it's a great alternative to a zipper or magnetic closure on your bag.

Bangle Bracelets

Hey lovebugs!  It's humpday. Tomorrow I leave for New Orleans for a week for work, but fear not! I will keep blogging, because, well, that is how much I love you.

Today we're talking bracelets.  Bangle bracelets are always fun for Spring and Summer, they are a cheery and easy way to spice up an outfit.

This is perfect with an LBD or with jeans, naturally, it's Kate.

Jess LC, Division Chevron Bangle, $48

One of my fave designers/bloggers, Jess LC!

Forever 21, Zebra stripe bangles, $6.80

A little wild? I love it!

Belle Noel, Love Stack Bangles, $78

I really like these because they're so boho chic

Bangle bracelets can be worn with any style: preppy, boho, animal print, you name it.  They're an easy add on to any outfit!

What I Scored

Hey lovebugs, 
It's rare that I shop in the non-sale section.  Unless I'm shopping for the brands I love and cherish like Kate Spade, Cole Haan, Michael Kors, etc.  I like to get some bang for my buck.  Now there are certain items that I will splurge on (mainly shoes) and one of those is multipurpose dresses.  Dresses are such a great go to item that are easy to throw on and accessorize.  


I needed to get some work dresses for my upcoming trip this week so I headed down to Macy's to do some damage.  Wanna see my scores?

MICHAEL Michael Kors Dress, Printed Sheath with Belt, $99

You know I'm going to stay under $100, and I did just that with this beautiful sheath from Michael Kors.    It's got this chic mock-croc print all over and the belt breaks it up beautifully.

AGB Dress, Dot print belted dress, $44.50

I'm obsessed with this dress.  The picture doesn't do it justice.  I plan on wearing it all four season.

Tahari Arthur Levine, Crepe Sheath, $99

The one I got at Macy's came with a thick patent leather belt, which is why I think it's more work-appropriate.  I'll wear this with a black cardi and tights.

Butter, Scoop Pump, $167 (I got with 25% promo code)

Can I tell you something? These are the most comfortable dress shoes I've ever put on my feet.  They are seriously like butter. Omg.

So how did I do? Did you like my picks?  I really like my dresses because I think they will be very versatile for work, family holidays, parties, and more.

Feeling Fruity

You guys, it's Monday.  Major bummer.  I'm so sorry.

Sometimes when you're this bummed, you need something out of the ordinary cheery. Don't you agree?  Which is why today's post is on fruit!

Max and Chloe, Bee Charming Fruit Lariat, $55

I just love this burst of fun with jeans on the weekend!

Juicy Couture, Fruit salad convertible bag, $68

So the little orange slice zips off into a wallet! Genius!

Kate Spade, Twirl Perfume, $18

Kate's new scent is lovely with pink watermelon, blackberry, and red currant.

Modcloth, Cherry Stem Top, $30 

Understated and adorable.

Feeling fruity? These prints, patterns, and ideas are so much fun and so unexpected.  Have fun playing with them!
