Petite Impact

How is everyone doing so far? I've been thinking about New Year's resolutions and will blog about that next. But first I want to talk about one of my gifts I received for Christmas from my husband. My husband surprised me with this Coach Rogue bag. I've been looking at it for a while but wasn't sure if I could pull off the size. It's a much bigger bag than any of my current ones I own and it's also very structured. Most of my bags are slouchy. I've been debating for two weeks if I should keep this or return it. Coach Rogue Oak also wearing BlankNYC Suede Moto Jacket  -on sale! (I will have a review up soon)  Coach actually dropped the price on this bag and it's currently 50% off right now. What I really like about this bag is the suede. It's really super soft suede that I think will eventually break in and slouch nicely.  It's a top handle bag with two shoulder straps that are removable. You can also hook the two straps toget

My very first handbag purchase was an Icon bag. Icon is actually famous for their shoes, but I saw this Navigator bag on display at Bloomingdales and had to have it. It cost $400 and it was my gift to myself for graduating college. I thought, man that's expensive for a bag but it's like a work of art! The Navigator Bag by Icon So yes, I still have it in my closet and no I don't use it anymore. Soon after I discovered Balenciaga in 2005 and it's been a on and off love affair ever since. My very first Balenciaga was a pewter first in silver hardware. I wish I still had it. I eventually sold it because it was a little too small for me. Balenciaga Pewter First 2005 Over the years I've gone through tons of Balenciagas. There are a few that I regret selling. If I ever won the lotto, I would probably spend the money searching for the old and rare Balenciaga bags that pop up on eBay every so often. Specifically the ones released in 2001-2005.

I finally managed to snag a Wrap It Up Sweater in mink berry. It should arrive Tuesday although who knows with Hurricane Irma. I ordered it in my usual size 4 and hopefully it fits! I'm not eyeing too much from Lululemon. I am a sucker for textured Define Jackets and this one is calling my name. Define Jacket Variegated Knit Heathered Black (I do wish it wasn't heathered black though, a nice silver gray would be nice) Not surprisingly these days I find myself wanting more Athleta items. I really think this vest is super cute and I can't decide between the pebble gray and soft lilac. And the vest comes in petite sizes!  Responsible Down Vest Soft Lilac Responsible Down Vest Pebble Gray  I actually have this sweater on the way and will have a review up soon. It looks so luxe. Can't wait to try it on. Now that I moved to Atlanta I feel like I have more use for sweater coats than actual jackets! This unfortunately doesn't come in petite sizes s
