it’s in the bag

i’m sure i’m not alone in this boat, but the best gifts are always the ones most needed.

and since i mortify (and humor) my family and friends by owning and carrying only one purse

(it’s been with me since college, around the world x2, through grad school, work and, even, our rehearsal dinner)

you can imagine my (and their) delight when my mum gave me 

the architect tote from lance wovens

(for my birthday)

i love this bag. simple, classic… and, as i prefer, free of any label.

even better yet, if you’re a fan of the classic ll bean boat and tote bag (as i am) the architect tote comes in a white woven base w/ a colored strap.

if turning 28 didn’t make me feel adult, finally getting a grown up purse does.
