All the pretty things

You know how when you're having a bad hair day, and it seems everyone else must have just walked out of a salon with intentions of making you look bad? I'm feeling kind of the same thing with my current every day bag, and everywhere I go, somebody has a better more lust-worthy one, and I can't help but stare. I'm pretty limited when it comes to my wardrobe, but I think every woman should have that one bag that makes her feel paparazzi ready even when she's juggling her latte, blackberry, and over zealous pup.  Love you Louis V, but I've never really been one to like loud branding, I want something, just right. But how can you decide on an "it" bag, should it be basic black..is that boring? And how big?? I don't want to constantly look ready for a weekend trip, but I do like to be, you know, prepared. Anyways, here are some bags that are making me do a double-take right now, and of course I got Alyssa in on the action too...

Conscious Collection etc.

A look at some pieces from H&M's new "Conscious Collection", a sequel to last year's "Garden Collection". Recycled polyester, Tencel, and Organic cotton make up this very white and very spring-like offering.

Coveting..

While the weather has been less than beautiful here in Toronto, I can't get the thought of sandals, flowing tops and jean shorts out of my head. If you are also afflicted and suffering with the desires of a new spring wardrobe and the lingering need for your winter jacket.... enjoy.
