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...

Review! Shinola Bixby Crossbody Bag

I'm finally getting around to reviewing the Shinola Bixby Crossbody bag. The leather is insanely soft for the affordable price of $495. I was shocked at how close it felt to my $5000 Louis Vuitton Millesime Speedy. 😮 You'll want to see the comparison between Shinola's leather to Louis Vuitton's Millesime Speedy in my video.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall. This bag can be worn two ways. It's mainly marketed as a crossbody bag, but the shoulder strap is completely adjustable. The strap drop ranges from 8 inches to 25 inches. The style resembles a saddle bag, similar to The Row's Izzy Bag that retails for $2490  and  Celine's Triomphe Bag .  Celine's Triomphe Bag (I actually prefer the Shinola bag more.) Bixby Crossbody Bag The standout difference from the Shinola and the luxury brands is the accordion style design. This allows the bag to expand slightly. The volume of the bag is about 4 liters. The shoulder strap is at a nice width and do...

11th Anniversary Dinner!

Happy Friday! Apologies for not having a Fit Review Friday. I've just been so bored with clothing lately. Haven't ordered anything new to try and haven't been to the stores recently for any try-ons. I've been spending most of my time just looking at bags. 😆  We kept things lowkey this year. For our anniversary dinner, we had omakase at NoriFish  and of course I reminded Jared we needed to take our anniversary selfie so I can add it to our collection. He hates posing for the camera. Here are some of our Anniversary Selfies! I didn't take a good one this year, the camera was way too close to our faces. 😂 I can't remember everything we ate, but it was all delicious! It also wasn't the best idea to have this meal the night before my annual physical. I'm still waiting for all of my results to come in and so far my LDL was slightly elevated. I'm not surprised.  This dessert was so good, strawberries, fried banana, green tea ice cream! 😍 Back to my favor...

New Releases Week of June 9th 2026

Apologies for the late post today. Super busy with work and then Jared and I went to celebrate our 11th anniversary! We went to Norifish. I'll post about it on Friday. Nothing for me this week, but I am in the market for a bag in nubuck. I don't know why I'm so fixated on nubuck right now, but it is velvety and soft. Maybe that's why. 😆 I also posted some new bags from Polène that are really pretty, I am just not sure if I want to give them another try. Anything for you this week?
