I usually wear my hair long (keeps my neck warmer during the wintry months) although I’ve been known to get the occasional pixy cut for summer. For as long as I can remember, I’ve had a fascination with hair barrettes and clips; always on a hunt for the pretty but sturdy few. Claire’s, Icing, and …

Hallmark Limited Edition Ornaments
I’ve been trying to wrap up my stocking-stuffer shopping for this year at Hallmark and Pier 1. I have many people to shop for. I found this sweet little 2011 limited edition cupcake ornament at my local Hallmark and discovered that they began their holiday cupcake series last year. I was off to search on …
Lisa Stickley & Stephanie Johnson: Vanity Case Innovation
Cute little makeup cases excite me! My current favorite is Stephanie Johnson’s Mumbai Collection. I love seeing the new designs that people can dream up e.g. the double pocket, the tall vanity, etc! Really wish Lisa Stickley would have more American stockists. Paying for international shipping on top of an expensive vanity case is a …
London Accessorize Haul
One night after a nice dinner at The Platform Bar & Restaurant in London (which I highly recommend), my husband and I walked across to admire the beautiful view at the promenade. Unexpected to me, sandwiched in-between was a large shopping arcade. I peeked into the store’s windows wishing the shops were still open (Boots, …

Kate Spade: Just a Few Handbags I’ve Been Loving!
Do you remember the Kate Spade Sam? The “it” bag of 2000? It was a classic minimalistic (I mean this in a good way) handbag which was quite cute. I bought it in black and a deep silvery-grey (eventually we parted ways via eBay). My qualm about the Sam was that it was too bulky …
Stephanie Dawn
Stephanie Dawn is another brand I have uncovered with my new-found love for Vera Bradley’s quilted accessories. I believe that there is a place for every brand in the fashion and accessories world because everyone has something unique to offer to an audience of equally varying likes and dislikes. I do favor Vera Bradley’s products …
Thoughts on Vera Bradley
I’ve finally changed my mind about Vera Bradley. I didn’t like the brand when there was a craze several+ years ago. I’m normally a big fan of leather designer bags and definitely still am. Recently I spotted the pattern called “Sittin’ in a Tree” and I think it’s cute and has a younger vibe to …
MapTotes
Looking for a new shopping or school/study tote? Look no further. Maptotes is a cute and affordable solution to every day needs. I especially love their denim and organic cotton styles =). I was just wondering the other day why companies like 7FAM or Rock & Republic haven’t released a collection of denim bags?…. It’s …
