New Gray Weekender
Hello Monday and hello new chapter in life. My second step-son graduated from high school this past Saturday morning. Sighing…. Honestly, I can’t believe it. I never thought we would get to this point.
My husband and I are dreaming of Napa Valley trips, dinner in Santa Barbara, walks around Provence, bed and breakfasts hotels. You know… things you can do without children. Our daughter will be a freshman in high school in just a few weeks so that countdown will begin soon.
I was online shopping again… and saw this wonderful weekender at Target. Since my recent online shopping adventures have not been fun, I decided not to order it but take my chances trying to find it.

I searched the Target locations near me but to no avail. Then last weekend I needed to get some thank you note cards to have my step-son fill out and mail so I decided to go to a Target a little further away.
And as fate would have it I saw it in person!

Now when I shop for bags I always carry them around the store to make sure that I like the way it feels and I like the ways it looks on me. I carried this around the entire store and was going to put it back but then I imagined my purse scarf from H&M on it and I thought, “oh that would be pretty on”. I was sold then!

It is a wonderful weekender and can hold everything! I got to see it in black too and it looks really chic. I will warn you these totes are enormous so make sure that this is something you want.

I hope that you all enjoy this wonderful find. It’s very affordable and has a strap for cross-body carrying. It would look wonderful with any suitcase.
