Totes

December 14, 2015

During the work week I have to carry a large bag. I love to have everything I need and then some. My calendar, to-do list, notebook, small make-up bag, chargers…. you get the idea. I also never know when I may need to run out with laptop in tow – it’s so much easier to throw in an oversized handbag. Zara has been a go-to for affordable, yet stylish handbags and right now the tote selection is amazing! Time to get a new bag for the new year!

Le Specs

November 16, 2015

Sunglasses are an accessory item I can never have enough of. I used to purchase one nice pair every year or so and now I stick to lower priced brands and scoop up multiple pairs throughout the year. I recently discovered Le Specs and love all of the unique styles, and the price point.. all the sunglasses are under $80!

Back to School

September 8, 2015

Well it’s officially back to school and no matter how old I get I will always be a fan of school supplies. New pens, notebooks, calendars… you name it, I can’t resist. Anyone who knows me well knows that you can always find an assortment of markers, pens and multiple calendars on my desk at any given time.

My favorite supplies come from Paper Source. We don’t have a store here in New Orleans but whenever I am in a city with one it’s a must stop on my list. Perfectly merchandised office supplies and trinkets are my little slice of happy!

Carry All

August 12, 2015

I’ve been a long time fan of Parker Thatch (formally iomoi) and their new “the big bag” is just perfect! I am always looking for a bag to throw everything in and for multiple uses. And their personalization…. my favorite!

One of Each

Zara has long been my go-to shoe source! They are always first to come out with the seasons latest styles {at affordable prices} and typically after a few wears, I can live in them. Zara recently launched their fall shoe collection and lets just say I may go broke, I want them all!
