Stopping by to say a quick hello, since family is still in town. My family likes to do things while they're visiting, so we are constantly on the go. We made the short drive to Denver yesterday to do some shopping - rather, the men watched Baby Warrior while mama, sis, and I tackled Cherry Creek mall. We found some amazing deals, but I actually practiced restraint so I can hoard my funds for spring rollouts in a couple of weeks. I did pick up a J. Crew fair isle sweater for around 70% off, and sis found a Jules dress for me for $15...around 90% off. My sweet husband gifted me the frog bracelet for my birthday to match the yellow one I got last year, and after hemming and hawing, I
picked out this as my other gift:




Tory Burch Amanda Crossbody



I've been trying to branch out from neutral bags, and the tomato red of this is fun for spring. The straps are removable to convert this into a clutch as well, and crossbody bags are my latest go-to bags as a mama with an unwieldy toddler who, by the way, has been incorrigible with doting grandparents in the house. Grandparent Detox is going to be painful when they head home in a few days.

Wish I had more time to put into my posts, but I hope to be blogging more often next week and catch up on your blogs as well...after I lose the 5 lbs I've gained from being fed eight times a day.

  2. Jules dress for $15?! LUCKY DUCK.

    I promise you won't regret a brightly colored crossbody. I've been wearing my small red crossbody with a lot more outfits than I had initially thought.

  3. I love the bright Tory Burch bag! Sometimes a crossbody is exactly what you need to keep your hands free while running errands. I'm also so inspired by your stacked bracelets, I can't seem to master more than 2! :/ Glad you're having fun with your family in town!

    1. I'm not sure if mine even look all that swell, but I just layer and hope it's not all too blingy - don't want to blind anyone! ;)
