I must admit, I have lost my spunk of recent. Working, working, no time for light and lovely blogging. Hence, the polka-dotted background and my new J. Crew Bryant suede platform peeps which I bought in antique lilac easily crossing with pink and lavender wardrobes. And how appropriate with the lilacs blooming. The fleeting lovelies are on sale which I snagged at last Spring sale + 20%.
I also fell in love with JC's Parlour hobo. If something could feel like butter, this bag would be it. I have never felt something so soft and the roominess is AMAZING! In bronzed beige, it definitely goes from casual to chic and work week to weekend. I love it. I am almost afraid to wear it too much...so lovely.
I am still eyeing the flutter flower clutch in sheer lilac. I don't have any idea where or when I would use this, but I love looking at it. There is a common theme here, Spring, lilac, little pops of color...
So am thinking need or necessity. Neither, but oh how it lifts the spirits. I love Spring. I love J. Crew Spring. What are your favorites and what are you waiting to go on sale.
Spring. Shop. Spring.
I bought the Parlor Hobo, used it for two weeks and returned it because it looked like it was about 2 years old. I am not hard on handbags. It scratches easily and seems to absorb colors from clothes. There were a couple of places that had very dark smudges from it rubbing on my clothes.
ReplyDeleteI loved the style and size but it looks very old very quickly.
CD - I am so glad you told me this. to be honest, I have been concerned about that and should certainly not do this for the investment? Did you have any troubles returning it?
ReplyDeleteLove the polka dots. And I know what you mean about needing a bit of spunk lately...I feel like I might finally be getting there...
ReplyDeleteA word of caution on the oh so pretty flutter flower clutch - it is so pretty, but it is so tiny. When I went to the last crewcuts fashion show at my B&M, the girls were carrying it as a purse. It's a perfect size for my 7-y.o. daughter. Not so much for me. I would be all over it at just about any price, if it were about twice the size. Current size barely fits a large pair of keys!
Heidi, I was just getting ready to make the purchase on the clutch and so thank you for the size feedback!! I was wondering if it was oh so small. You saved me from a purchase I would likely be disappointed with...have a great day.
