My Floral Tote

Sorry for the no-post on Friday. We had a “wind warning” here in Indy on Friday and it was bad. So we all had issues with internet service. It was not a huge shock as we always have Jekyll and Hyde weather here. Last week I wrote a post about Floral Totes by Ted Baker and in particular, I was dreaming about the first one.

The Cecie Chatsworth which is now sold out was my favorite. I wonder if any of my readers were able to get their hands on it? I am curious? I don’t get a commission for any of my finds yet but I am hoping to get some sponsors in the near future. 
I was so happy to receive this last week. It is stunning! It is such a beautiful bag, you guys! Very spacious, it has plenty of room for everything. 
Love the lettering in gold, so chic. 
The pouch inside was just as beautiful as the tote itself. What a splendid buy!
I adore how the floral design continues around the entire bag. It’s wonderful!
I hope that at least one of you was able to order this beauty. The price was outstanding! I could not pass it up and I carried it for about 3 days last week and received plenty of stares. It is a show stopper for sure. I hope that you enjoyed this post and were able to pick up one yourself. Happy Monday!

The Lavender Sweater

Hello All, 
I just wanted to share a quick little post today about this lovely sweater that I picked up at H&M a few weeks ago.

It is a basic knit sweater in this beautiful light purple. I call it lavender and it is just lovely.
I’ve worn it with my brooch and pearls. 
It is very comfortable and affordable. 
It’s perfect for those chilly spring days.

The material is nice and thick. I have gotten so many compliments on this sweater. Everyone loves the color and the shape of it. 
I hope that you enjoyed this wonderful little spring find and enjoy your Wednesday! Thanks for reading!

Monique Lhuiller Rose Cosmetic Bag

It’s Friday and I am ready for a long weekend. I hope all of you had a wonderful Valentine’s Day! I shared on my Instagram account my double rose bouquet that I received from my husband. I was so surprised to receive it! You could smell them down the hall. It was amazing!

I also got another surprise too. My Monique Lhuillier floral cosmetic bag arrived yesterday!

I actually ordered it the first week of February but was told that there was a long back order list and that they were not sure if it would be sent. I called earlier this week and was finally told that my bag would be in the first shipment and that I should receive my order. 
It finally arrived yesterday and I could not be more excited! It is lovely!
It is a very large cosmetic bag and had these tags on the inside. You can just rip them out once you receive it. 
Love the Monique Lhuillier tag on the inside. It is very chic!
A small pocket is located on the inside too. 

Also love the gold hardware. It looks so classic! 
I put my items in asap! I can’t wait to use it this spring and summer. It looks so feminine and chic. Also, here is a photo of my gorgeous Valentine’s Day roses. I just love this picture. I hope that you all enjoy your weekend and thanks for reading!

Winter Blush Pump

If I had a flag it would probably be blush because I can’t seem to stay away from this color. I love it so much and whenever I see it I just have to buy it. The next lovely blush item that I found were these great classic pumps from the Gap.

This is the classic suede pump in dusty rose pink. It also comes in true black. Better hurry quick and order a pair. They are going fast!
I love the pointed toe and the 3-inch heel. They truly are classic!
I hope that you can grab a pair soon. The dusty rose color is selling pretty fast and at $31.99 I would not be surprised if they sold out this week! It is truly a beautiful staple item to have in your wardrobe. 
As always I hope that you enjoyed this post and Happy Hump Day!

The Winged Tote

I am so thrilled to share with everyone today this great tote that I found at Target. It is called the winged tote handbag and I actually found it walking around my local store. I saw it in the navy and I thought, “I wonder if they have this in a different color.” So I checked online and they had three other colors.

The color that I ordered is called blush of course and it is so pretty in person! I was a little apprehensive about the snake print handles but they look great! 
The size is great and there is PLENTY of room!
Gold “feet” on the bottom, wonderful feature. 
It looks like it’s double the size of my other blush tote. Both look so chic together by the way. 
This is a wonderful tote if you are looking for something that is large, classic and elegant. This could be a wonderful work bag for anyone and make sure that you check out those other colors too! Enjoy!

Winter Square Sunglasses

I have really been enjoying my weekends lately. I changed my cleaning schedule to break-up my chores throughout the week instead of a whole day of cleaning on Saturday or Sunday. That was starting to drive me nuts and ruin my weekends.

But since I have made that change it has given me more time to find items on the internet. Bad…. very bad. Like these great winter sunglasses from Ann Taylor.

They are a beautiful, classic pair of sunglasses to have during the cold. I still wear sunglasses in the winter. They help with my contacts and helps me to easily ignore men! Ha!
I got them for a great price. I only paid $25 last week! Not too bad for a pair of square sunglasses which are my favorite shape. 
Well, I hope that you enjoyed this find and Happy Monday to everyone!

The Paver Tote

I always try to make sure that I share a great find while it is on sale as soon as I can. This is another one of those great finds. This is called the pochette tote bag from Ann Taylor. It comes in two different colors. This is the paver grey color and I managed to get it for only $45! The original price is $148!

It has all of the features that an executive tote should have. It has the divider with a zipper, the cell phone holder and the inside zipper on the side. It’s also very roomy and beautiful. 

Love the “purse feet” on the bottom. That is always a favorite feature of mine. 
Another great feature that it has is the removable pouch. It has a protection coating on it so you can put your tablet in it if you would like. Great feature!

It also has Ann Taylor on the inside of it. It is a lovely bag and will keep you organized. I also love the pink blush color on the front. A favorite of course. Another great feature is the gold hardware. I love gold hardware with pink blush. I just think it looks so timeless. 
Well I hope that you all enjoy this find and if you can click on the link above and take a look at that price! It’s a steal, honestly it is. Enjoy!
