A Little More Love for Louis



It's a Louis Vuitton metro card holder. The only Louis item that I purchased. It was a gift to myself for my hard work at the US Open in 2003.

LeSportsac Bag makes the Perfect Vacation Bag


The little dog and I are heading to the shore for a few days of fun at the beach. I will catch up with new bags when I return. Stay cool. x0x0.

My First Love was Louis



This bag was a gift from my Dad and Step-Mom. I think it was for my seventeenth birthday. As you can see the bag and the box it came in are still in pretty good condition. That's quality.

Sample Sales are Awesome



Some time last year, I visited the Le Sportsac sample sale. Le Sportsac has always be a favorite from way back in the day. The sale was fun after waiting over an hour to get in. I quickly realized that it would take even longer to leave if I paid by credit card since the had only one credit card machine working. I counted my cash so I knew what my budget was and could cruise through that line. I was able to purchase 4 bags and this was one of them. It is great for those weekend trips or those days where you need to bring too much work home with you. I like the mix of colors and the hexagon design with roundish shape.

Barbie Bag with a Twist


It easily could be a Barbie bag with its pink color scheme. However take a closer moment to see that Barbie has raven hair and then look in the corner to see her wearing a jilbab.

Thanks Debbie. This is a great find. Check out her site here

Now, This is a Gift Bag


This was the Whitney Museum's 2005 Art Party gift bag. It was a collaboration between bag maven Kate Spade and artist Ellen Harvey. Isn't awesome?

Event Bag


As a sometimes event planner, I have certain supplies that I find essential to a successful event. This bag is one of those supplies. Sure I over paid for the first version of this bag but it all worked out when I purchased a second bag far cheaper. I am not sure what the math looks like but it felt like the right thing to do.
