Grew up sleeping on a pair of Christianlouboutin s
Grew up sleeping on a pair of vintage Marimekko sheets, which is a fact I could only recently appreciate. The sheets had giant flowers in shades of yellow and orange, similar to these but with more orange. So last year when I was shopping at Crate and Barrel for new sheets I instantly Christian Louboutin gravitated to the Merimekko Kukkula linens in taupe. Similar to my childhood sheets but in a more muted color/botanical print and easy to launder, I’ve become a huge fan of Marimekko. So imagine my surprise when flipping through the latest Anthropologie catalog I saw Marimekko bags, especially the Pictograph Tote with a black background and white horses. And there are even more bags at the Marimekko site. My favorites are Maple, and Opaali with blue dots. With Christian Louboutin Shoes on its way the Sweater Girl Tote by Rafe has caught my eyes a few times at Anthropologie. I like the tassels and the metal hardware against the contrast of the grey knit and black leather.
Although its not shown on the web site I’ve seen the Wise Old Tote and the Big Love Tote on the Sale racks. **Not bag related, I picked up the Spray Can Skirt recently which should keep me warm Sale Christian Louboutin Shoes all winter long. While standing in the check out line at the Anthropologie at Rockefeller Center today I noticed a woman carrying a leather studded Michael Kors bag similar to the one of the left but in a taller square shape. Her bag was beautifully worn in and the perfect size for a little after work shopping. Plus I’m a sucker for anything with studs. So I’ll be keeping an eye out for this bag in the coming weeks.So while I am still hanging tough with my big commuting bag I am in desperate need for a replacement for my small “running errands” bag. I’ve had this Old Navy Braided-Cinch purse in khaki green for almost two years now and it has served me well. The perfect size to throw in my cell, wallet, camera and keys it was just the right weight to carry when running to the grocery store or going for a walk in the park. But recently it had gotten pretty tired looking and the braided handle is starting to look a little worn. So I’m shopping for a new small bag, something in a lightweight fabric with a lightweight price.
The leader of the pack so far is the Natural hobo from the Gap. Looks good and small, but full o pockets and with a nice contrast lining. I haven’t been able to see this bag in person yet because it hasn’t shown up at any NYC Gaps yet, and the Gap customer Christian Louboutin Collection service is not help at all. (If you see this bag at a NYC-area Gap let me know: thebagblog at gmail.com!)Banana Re has a nice plaid/suede bag that is worth an in person look. But besides that I am out of ideas.
Let me know if you have a great suggestion for the perfect small bag for me. I was drawn in by the review of Fall bags, but I was hooked when I read about Shopgirl and ran right out and got a copy of the movie which I have since fallen in love with and watched four times in one weekend and just finished the book. Sigh. What are your favorite bag/fashion blogs? Bonus points for NYC-area blogs. Leave a note in the comments. I’m always surprised when I go through my comments to see so much discussion STILL going on about things I posted over a year ago. I can Christian Louboutin Heels only assume people are finding me through Google. I’m glad to have such opinionated readers at my site who care a great deal about the same bag related issues that interest me. Most of the online chatter about these pictures have been about how silly she looks flipping off the photographers or about Spiderman reshoots, but I am more concerned about the bag she is carrying. Why on earth would Kirsten Dunst be carrying around almost the exact same Vera Bradley bag (or worse, a Vera knock off) that Christian Louboutin Specials I myself had circa 2000? Now at the time I was pleased as punch with my little cotton bag. It cost me a bundle of my recent college grad salary, had fantastic pockets, and at the time it was the height of Boston preppy fashion.
