A red satchel is an all season staple for me, but in the spring/summer it pumps up all of my navy pieces with a pop of color.

A few months ago, my husband killed two of my plants. I was out of town for several weeks, and while I was away, he apparently forgot that plants need water to live. So when I returned, my snake plant and my Calamondin tree were both dead, while his braided money tree continued to thrive. […]
It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.
Inside the reader mail bag there are questions about summer beauty, hiring a personal shopper, navigating a sudden breakouts, and more. Let’s dig in!

And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.
Saw this one at Nordstrom for full price this past weekend. It has compartments AND is on sale at Kate Spade online.

I’ve never heard of Milly Blake before, but I do think that top bag is very cute!

Has anyone had good luck with Nine West bags? I went through a phase during college where that was all I bought. Then I realized that they fell apart so often, I was spending several hundred a year. I haven’t bought one since, but I like that red one. I wonder if their quality has improved?
I bought a fabric one about three years ago, and it’s held up just as well as my leather purses from other brands with about a year of continuous use when I bought it and sporadic use since. I can’t speak for their leather purses, but I’ve had good luck with my fabric one!
