Petite Impact

  It's my birthday! I already started celebrating over the weekend. 😆 My sister sent me a box of macarons and chocolates from Ladurée. So freakin' good. The packaging is beautiful. I'm going to keep the boxes. Saturday night my husband took me out to dinner at a new restaurant we haven't tried yet. The name of the restaurant is The Optimist. We're huge Marvel fans and when we saw members of the cast paid a visit, we made a point to come here. They're known for their seafood dishes.  The bread is AMAZING. We love oysters and this is something we really miss coming from the northeast. We just don't get to have oysters often, so this is a treat.

Chocolate cake with butternut brown ice cream 😋 The next night I wanted ramen from Jinya, which is my favorite ramen spot. I always get the spicy vegan ramen with an egg. The protein is tofu. Sometimes I'

  It's my birthday! Celebrated with yummy food all weekend long. But before we get to that, I'd like to introduce to you all my new Mulberry bag. Mulberry is considered a premier designer but without the price tag sticker shock. Nowadays, most bags at this level will run you $2000 and up.

This is the Amberley bag in size small. It's a very petite friendly size that fits all of my essentials with some room to spare. I love the minimalist design. The color is the perfect golden brown. The leather is thick and sturdy. This style comes in many different colors, leathers, and sizes. I'm pretty sure there is a perfect combination out there for everyone. I also went for the pebbled leather to mini

So this is 40. Seems like my 30s went by extremely fast. My celebratory weekend was filled with lots of take out and treats! And of course I also had to get a new bag. This is actually a vintage bag from 2005. A baby Chloe Paddington. Do you guys remember when it was the "It" bag? There were waitlists and all the celebrities had this bag in some color hanging off the crook of their arms. I actually had a couple of these back in the day but sold them off because they were very heavy. This is the baby size version. Much easier to carry. I do love my vintage bags! This one came all the way from Japan and is in mint condition. I'm loving this navy blue with gold hardware. Also arrived just in time are these lovely Golden Gingham Mary Janes . I am so glad I got these before my size sold out! I'll have a review up soon. My lovely co-workers sent me some cookies that were still warm! Soooo good. I love cookies that are fresh out of the oven. Popped a chocolate chip cookie ri
