Happy Hump Day

I attribute the time change to the fact that it’s just been one.of.those.weeks.  To celebrate the fact that it’s now half-way done, I’ve rounded up some current accessory obsessions that need to make their way into my closet.

My eyesight is close to perfect, but that’s not stopping me from crushing hardcore on these retro spectacles.

I was blown away when I spotted this genuine leather cross-body bag (for less than $15) that’s perfect for holding my wallet, keys and a lip gloss.

I would wear this sleek watch with an armful of gold bracelets to make it stand out even more.

A chain necklace that’s a little bit rock and roll with a Grecian Goddess twist.  I’d pair it with a white v-neck and a blazer.

Wouldn’t these persimmon-colored sandals be perfect for walking around outside on a balmy night?

What are your thoughts?  Are any of these items calling to you?

    Glasses are ugly, those sandals are funny looking, the necklace thing looks scary, and the strap on the purse looking thing is too long.

    Watch isn’t too bad though.

    Wait a minute—-real leather from Forever 21? Is the world coming to an end?

    I’m still waiting to hear the catch…something must be wrong to make it so cheap!

    Hi, I just want to first say that you have the most amazing taste. The bag and sandals are great!
    I read your earlier posts about flea markets, and in particular, the Rose Bowl flea market. You wrote that after two years, you’ve finally figured out which vendors are the best . I’m thinking of visiting the flea market soon, so could you please point me in the right direction? Thank you!
