Because It's All About That Bag

I've always been a bit of a purse and shoe addict. There's something in my personality that has a hard time feeling like there's ever going to be enough of anything and shoes and bags are at the top of that list.

I know, I know. Quality trumps quantity every time, but while I absolutely love the expensive pair of Louboutins I found under the Christmas tree one year, there's something insanely satisfying about finding three pairs of shoes at a sale and getting to come home with all of them because they're so deeply discounted.

With this bag, you don't have to choose between quantity and quality. While it wouldn't exactly be fair to call it a steal, for the quality of the bag and the fact that it can be used as a clutch, a shoulder bag (short chain strap) or crossbody (long leather strap) you really are getting both quality and quantity without breaking the bank.

Grey, Rainy Day

When I lived in New York, I began each morning by checking the weather on my iPhone (before I even got out of bed). Since moving back to Los Angeles, I'm no longer in the habit, which may have just something to do with 340+ days of sunshine a year. As a result, I was caught off guard by the rain on Saturday. Luckily, I had this hat with me to hide under. It's old, but I found very similar styles here and here.

You really can't beat a well-shaped hat for hiding under - be it from the rain, a bad hair day or simply the world if I have yet to consume the amount of coffee necessary for me to successfully interact with other human beings.
