I've searched for years for a small bag option that would still hold everything I want.  I finally caved and bought one at TJMaxx (as opposed to the thrift store).  This Tignanello cross body, but at about 1/3 the price and in a nice dusty blue.  It's got enough space for camera/phone/keys, etc...and the back has a zipper compartment with money and multi-pocket card holders. Awesome!

But more importantly, I hit up Itsapinkthing's Etsy shop and couldn't resist her gorgeous wares!  I bought:

So pretty!  Now I just need tips/hints/ideas on  how to store them properly!

These new gym shoes and a new driver for DH. Dick's sporting goods was having a sale, and he found a Nike driver that is usually $450 marked down to $150. I told him I'd buy him a new putter for our anniversary, but we couldn't pass this deal by. So, he got a driver instead of a putter.

Thanks! It was a lot more than I usually spend on belts (around $50 after it was shipped) but I couldn't get it out of my head!

The Roald Dahl book is a great pic! I absolutely love Dahl's adult stories. Most of his books have really fantastic illustrations as well.

I also love that belt - it would look so cute with a printed flowy sundress!

great belt, Kelly!

KaffeeKlatsch - regarding storage of the feather headbands - maybe you could buy a styrofoam ball that will fit in the roundest part of the head band and put all three headbands around it - kwim? you could then take a purse dust bag or other cloth bag and put the ball of headbands in it...

Nothing here yet. I'm eying up a few things at Madewell, but haven't pull the trigger. I love the headbands from itsapinkthing and have also been eying those up. I always feel weird in headbands, though.

Off subject, but did you read The Irregulars? It's a nonfiction book about Dahl's time as a spy during WWII here in America.  Great book.

Picked up some items I've been hunting for all summer, finally!  My local Target was having some pretty good clearance deals, so I stocked up.

41x9iRLdHlL._AA260_.jpgin dark brown

And two other skirts, one straight coral twill and one a-line red chambray.

I think I need that black mini, Elle.  BR has a similar version.  Does it run TTS?  Off to check Target's website for it.

They had a few left in dark denim and in black.  I think it runs pretty true to size - I'd try to get it in store if you can, since it's still $15 or something online and in store it was less than $5.

Of course - duh!  Sorry!  Anyway, here's the link to the black version, since I cannot for the life of me find the dark denim one again.

I got it on Figleaves.com and it's by Freya.

 

P.S. They're also having a 20% off sale right now too - the coupon code is SAVE20 for the US site and TREAT20 for the UK site (which is sometimes worth ordering off of - some things are cheaper on the UK site even with international shipping). Of course the codes just came out this morning, a few days AFTER I dropped a huge wad of cash on their site angered.gif (ordered a few other sets I didn't put in my post)
