rainy day wish list





yesterday i did not leave the house. i barely left the bed. i wasn't sick. just one of those days. it was raining and i was absurdly tired. but i feel pretty certain that i would have gotten up bright and early and finished all my errands if i had the accessories above! 

the bubble umbrella is one of those things that is forever on my wish list but i haven't coughed up the cash for. i've been looking for an affordable and classic trench coat for about a year now and have yet to find THE one [the trench shown is NOT affordable]. and those rain booties just kill me. i would definitely wear them even when it's not raining! i have some of the tall hunter boots, but i've been thinking about selling them. i'm more drawn to short boots these days. 

i just realized that i have wanted all three of these items since i visited NYC for the first time almost a year ago. it was pouring down rain the whole time we were there. hunter's are a pain to pack [and not very comfortable to walk around in all day], my outdoorsy rain jacket didn't go with my outfits, and our umbrella kept flying up. obviously these things could have solved all of my rainy day problems.

tote bag round up



lately i've been pining for a good, sturdy, pretty and functional tote bag for the everyday. i used to always carry a huge bag full of books and journals etc., but then for some reason i switched to smaller bags and clutches. i guess it was only a matter of time until i felt the need to carry everything with me again. i think it has something to do with the fact that i am reading 3 books at once and would like to carry at least one of them with me. along with a water bottle, glasses case, lipsticks, pens, notebook, planner....the list goes on. so i put together a little tote bag round up for myself! all under $100 except for the last one... it's a dream bag, i guess.
