As we all know, I have a thing for the circle bags that are popping up everywhere. It started with this one that I used in my What to Pack for Amsterdam packing list, but it sold out fast and I wasn’t able to get it. This start searching hardcore for one that I liked as much or more than that one. I saved a bunch of links and have a few floating around in my online shopping carts across the internet. I happened to poke back to the website yesterday and saw that they were restocking the original one that I wanted and I could preorder it for an early March delivery. Not wanting to have a repeat of the last time with waiting too long and kicking myself I preordered it last night. I don’t think I have ever bought a purse for summer before, so I hope it lives up to my expectations.

I decided that since I was able to buy the original one that I liked, that I would take all the other links I compiled over the past few weeks and put them together in a post for you. Number 4 is from Zara. I actually chose that one to be my surrogate bag and I may still actually get it, because it’s larger size than the one I bought. I love me a big (and it’s only $45). I also really like number 2 for the colours and weave.

Up until this point I usually carry the same purse 365 days a year, or do a small rotation between 2-3. I have never designated a bag to a season before, and I probably still won’t but it will be nice to have a more summerish bag in my super tiny “collection”.

Do have different bags for each season? Autocorrect changed bags to bras so I am glad I caught that before I hit post 😉

I’ve felt under the weather for the past two weeks. One day I have a bit of a sore throat with a slight cough the next it’s gone but I still feel off. Then it comes back again. I wish it would go one way or the other just to get it over with, but I guess it’s just the time of year.

Madewell is having a sale with and extra 30% off sale items with the code META30 so half of today’s clothing picks are from there. There are some nice dresses and jumpsuits listed that would be great for spring. All the snow melted this week so I am keeping my fingers crossed that spring hits early this year. I’m not holding my breath but I am sure as hell looking forward to seeing a little bit of green poking through the ground.

Weekly Reads and Finds sales and discounts Jungle Fever Feb 16 2018

My two new shirts came in the mail today and I am thrilled with them. I was little concerned with not being able to try them on since H&M can have weird sizing. These shirts ran in 2, 4, 6, 8…. number sizes vs the s, m, l, so I was debating the size. Since I 99.9% of the time take a small in their tops I checked their size chart and opted for the 6 instead of the 4 I was leaning towards because they listed 2-4 as xs, and 6-8 as small, and I am glad that I did. While I probably could have got away with a smaller size in the wrap shirt, the black lace top has no give the to the fabric and a 6 fits perfect. I can’t wait to integrate them in to my wardrobe.

This week I was feeling animal/jungle inspired for my picks. I always think that I would love to have a very Scandinavian decor inspired house and then I see these bold prints, colours, and patterns and think that I would love to have them everywhere. Maybe I can find a nice balance between the two, but I just really have a thing for jungle cat prints. Speaking of, have you seen this Gucci wallpaper? I would LOVE to have a wall of this (or maybe this one or this one from Anthropologie). I haven’t wallpapered anything since my mom let me do a room makeover when I was 12 or so. I think I am due for a wallpaper fest 😉

Weekly Reads and Finds sales and discounts Valentines Edition Feb 9th 2018

First off, I am not a Valentine’s Day fan. I actually quite dislike it, but I know many people do enjoy it and one of my kids really loves it, so I thought I would pull some Valentine’s themed pieces this week. I’m usually a pretty basic Valentine gift giver. Each kid and hubby gets a card, and this year I am buying them each a bag of their favourite gummies from the gourmet gummy store. That’s it 😉

Second, tonight while Roo was at a class I went and did a try-on of some clothes to give myself some spring inspiration. I found some good pieces and others that I thought would be good from online photos which turned out not so good on me :/ It was a little disappointing but I have some new things to add to my spring wish list.

If you have an aversion to pink my above picks might not be for you 😉
