I'm now officially an ambassador for Fount! 😍 My code is Leslie15 for 15% off your purchase over $100.

Most Durable Bags in My Collection

  It's officially summer! I was tagged by another handbag enthusiast to share which bags are the most durable in my collection. It made me think what exactly does durable mean in the handbag world? The two things that I would consider if a bag is durable would be a vintage bag that has held up well with considerable use and at the same time holding its value. I know some will say, but I don't want a pre-owned bag, I like to buy brand new. I'll also include two bags in my list that you can still buy brand new today. Chloe Paddington Let's start with the Paddington bag. This bag is 20 years old! Say what you want about the Paddington bag, but it was the "It" bag in the mid 2000s and now it's been given a new makeover with the re-issue. However the vintage OG is the way to go. Having the original will always be a flex. These retailed for $1400 or so back in the day and you can still fetch a vintage one around $1000 today. If you're ever interested to ...

My Best Purchases So Far in 2026

Happy Friday! I want to use this post to check in with everyone. We're just about halfway through 2026 which is CRAZY. In January when I wrote about my 2026 goals, one of my goals is to only purchase 24 items this year. And it is turning out to be way harder than I thought it would be. Going through my excel spreadsheet, I have purchased 5 bottoms, 3 jackets, 13 tops- for a total of 21 items so far. Which isn't great considering I still have 6 months to go! 😳 NGL I'm starting to panic a little bit. 😅 Apparently Banana Republic has taken Lululemon's place for me. Eleven items out of 21 have been Banana Republic. The rest are Athleta. 😂 Here are my favorite items so far in 2026. This list also includes items that are not clothing related and items that I have not yet reviewed. Since it is hot and humid, of course a lot of linen is being worn all the time, like almost every day. When it wasn't as hot I was wearing Banana Republic's Oversized Linen Shirt a lot. I...

New Releases Week of June 16th 2026

Nothing for me today! I am so bored of clothing lately that it's hard for me to find anything that I'm interested enough to buy. I think I'm going to wait for fall clothes. Summer items are usually the same styles and colors every year. I did pick up some more linen pieces and some t-shirts but there's not much else I need for summer. I'm ready for fall. 😂 Let me know if anything caught your eye this week. ANYTHING at all!  Ebb To Street Tank Beach Ball Blue Button Up Collared Short Sleeve Shirt Light Ivory Scuba Windbreaker Beach Ball Blue Ruched Tote Bag 24L Walnut Crunch Convertible Ruched Crossbody Bag 16L Walnut Crunch Ruched Shoulder Bag Mini 1.5L Walnut Crunch New From Athleta Airy Cotton Terry Boatneck Sweatshirt Woodland/Pearl Reverie MR Ankle Pant Woodland (No petite sizing 😔) Reverie Short Sleeve Top Woodland (I'd like to see more colors in this) New From Vuori Pose Support Cami White Heather Gray Villa Shoreline Halter Top Sable Villa Pinstripe Sho...
