I bought this bag back in June and I can't remember if I ever pimped it out properly on the blog. So, just in case, I'mma tell you about it now: it's from the vintage Fossil collection, cost more than I am comfortable with spending these days, and rocks my world. And it photographs so well! I even splurged and bought the matching wallet. Don't you just want to do naughty things to it? Pet the smooth, rich leather? Teabag the front pocket where I keep my keys? Etc, etc? Yeah, it's okay. So do I.
And I like my polka-dots, too.
My boyfriend is down a-visiting for the first part of the weekend, so I'm going to keep this short and sweet to reduce the guilt I have of blogging while he patiently waits for me. We're going to the park today. We might even have a picnic, because you know what? I finally found a goddamned picnic basket! It was 50% off at Target and is cute as all hell. I think this calls for a photoshoot.
I'll be catching up on all your blogs later! What are you up to this weekend?
Dress: Free People
Sweater: Abercrombie (I think)
Shoes: UO
Bag: Fossil
loooove that bag so much!

I need a pic-a-nic basket. (Doesn't that remind you of Yogi Bear?) Mr. A and I have yet to go on a picnic, but that is probably because I am deathly afraid of any and all bugs, especially those that are drawn to food outside. *shudder* Nightmares.
ReplyDeleteThis bag is absolutely wonderful. I have several bags with these long shoulder straps that can also be held by a strap in your hand. I always hold the bag. I never shoulder strap it, but you have inspired me to give that a shot.

that bag is as photogenic as you are. :D
ReplyDeleteThat bag is absolutely gorgeous. I almost bought it myself like three of four times and then I didn't. Boo. I also love your dress and your cute little face that I just want to grab and flubber kiss. PBBBTTTTT! Sorry, not sure what happened.
ReplyDeleteSo, this weekend is my big performance on aerial silks. Freaking out. Really exhausted and full of anxiety but also excited to perform. I love performing. Wish I could look out into the audience and see your face and then blow you kisses. Oops, got all creepy again.
xoxo,
Tracy
Love the bag! And all the forest pictures!! Have fun with your bf - go on, have a picnic, don't keep that good man waiting!! Kisses :)
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, the bag is sensational! The color is so rich, it really does look expensive! You just reminded me that I have a proper picnic bag. I should whip that out before this Minnesota summer goes away (and we all know it's soon enough.) Have fun with your bf, photos are in order, indeed. Me, I'm off to a concert and a play at the Orpheum tomorrow. ;)
ReplyDeleteour summer here in vancouver doesn't really call for a picnic. it's been raining... SO MUCH FOR "SUMMER" HAHA!
ReplyDeletehave fun and yes, it does call for a photoshoot :)

ReplyDeleteThis is a really pretty outfit and really pretty bag! Hope you enjoy your time in the park!
ReplyDeleteYay! Picnics rock! And that bag is pretty hot, too. Have a great time.
ReplyDeleteI love your look! especially the bag. I love that your pictures have a woodsy feel to them. Target has picnic baskets? Now all I have to do is find one and convince someone into going on a picnic with me. Have fun!!

ReplyDeleteA picnic sounds amazing!! What a darling bag, it looks absolutely perfect and capable of doing everything a good bag ought to do. http://thearcenciel.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteoooooooh yes I remember seeing this one....took my breath right away this little beauty and her caramel/ oak shade looks so pretty in photos and if possible even more gorgeous in real life. And look at that lock system. :)
ReplyDeleteThese photos are just so gorgeous - I adore your bag, the color, design, fantastic!! And you look super cute in your dress :)

Yeah I know Fossil's prices are high but their quality is so good . Looking forward to snaps from the picnic
ReplyDeleteOh my GOSH. That is the most perfect bag ever! I mean it! I would carry that beauty every single day. It's the perfect size and has that glorious old look to it. Oh, and you look like a freakin' model.

Ok, "tea bag the front pocket"... possibly the funniest thing I've ever read on a blog (or anywhere else)! That bag is pretty sexy though haha! It looks super good with your dark hair too (which sounds like a weird compliment, but whateva! ) ;)
ReplyDeletethat bag is a dream, and totally worth whatever it cost. You will have it forever, your grand kids will probably have to pry it out of your cold dead hands. (and then argue about who gets it)
ReplyDeleteAnd on a less strangely morbid note,
I hope you have a really wonderful picnic!
Chic on the Cheap
oooooh! yes i want to caress that bag! very pristine! love it very muuuch!
ReplyDeleteThat bag is AMAZING. I have been looking for one like it, but couldn't find it in my budget, I ended up with another similar leather satchel. So jealous!
ReplyDeleteGreat bag! and big enough to really fit everything in - including the camera.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend with the bf, Ashley!
Love the polka dots on you!
ReplyDeleteKristin xo
