a treat...or two.

Last month I made a little (ok big) splurge with a little bit of my lottery winnings.  I wanted to purchase something special, and I thought about getting a piece of jewelry from Tiffany but then I was too 'cheap' to spend a lot of money on something I might only wear for a little bit.  So, then I turned to looking for a wallet & a handbag.  For the hand bag, I went with something more classic so that it will always be 'in style', I think this black city satchel from Tory Burch will do just that.  It's a great top handle bag (with optional cross-body strap) that is excellent for everyday use.  Big enough, but not too big.  The only downside I've found so far is that if I'm out shopping, it's definitely too heavy to carry around on your arm for a few hours.  Which is why I have been keeping the optional strap inside the bag so I can pull it out when my arm gets tired.  For the wallet, I went a little more trendy.  I just couldn't resist a MINT and GOLD zip wallet!! Could it be any more my style?? Nope, it couldn't. Had to buy it, and I absolutely love it! I've never had a zip wallet before and I love that fact that it's basically impossible for me to lose anything out of there! Super loving these two pieces.
