Tassle-Town

I've always had a thing for fringe (or tassles), especially on bags.  One of my most used bags is actually  a little fringe number that I got at H&M a couple of years ago: 

While I don't think that I'll ever find a bag that I love as much as mine, I wouldn't mind a second one to add to the rotation. And there are so many great options:

Rebecca Minkoff  / H&M / Karen Millen  / /Proenza Schouler / 

Topshop  / Yves Saint Laurent 

The Rebecca Minkoff one is hands down my favorite, it's the perfect size and color. So if I am going to buy one bag this year it is probably going to be that one. 

Are you happy that fringe is making a comeback?

Bucket List

I love the bucket bag trend! My affection for the style started when I was just a toddler and my mom always carried toys and snacks in her Louis Vuitton bucket bag (seriously that thing held more stuff than Mary Poppin's magic satchel). The first bucket bag I owned was also a Louis Vuitton (the smaller version of my mom's), but I never liked it as much as my mom's, maybe it was the size, maybe that it just looked too new... 

 So I was ecstatic when I found a vintage Burberry one in a thriftstore earlier this year. Just as big and tattered as my mom's, the bag soon became my new favorite. What I love most about them is how they are the perfect compromise between a slouchy tote and a more structured bag (oh and did I mention how much stuff they hold?).

The best though? there's one for every style and wallet:

 Old Navy / French Connection / Zara

Yves Saint Laurent / Gucci /  Proenza Schouler

Which one is on top of your "bucket list”?
