Currently Craving: A New Bag

1. Alice + Olivia Chain Bag
2. Hoss Intropia Lane Handbag from Piperlime
3. Deena & Ozzy Moto Satchel
4. Free People Studded Side Sling Bag
5. Kaksi-Tva Round Zip Bag from Pixie Market

I'm having serious bag lust! If it's black, slouchy, and has chains or studs, I want it! But since they're all so similar, I'm having a tough time choosing which one to get. What are your favs out of the bags above, or do you have any suggestions of other bags I should check out? I love hearing your opinions, you're all so fashionable and smart!

***On a completely unrelated note, I entered the DKNY Jeans Break the Rules contest and I'd love it if you could vote for me! You're allowed to vote 10 times per day, and every vote enters you to win $300! Plus, if you vote for me, be sure to come back and comment every day that you vote and I'll give you an extra entry per day into the Tolani scarf giveaway!!***

Inspire Me

I've been feeling vastly uninspired lately, so I decided to go through folders of pictures I saved on my computer, and lo and behold I found some inspiring jewelry! But I have to ask, where do these great pieces come from? It can't be ebay, because I never see anything like this! Where do you all shop for vintage and/or unique jewelry?

The Secret Garden

Dress: Forever 21

Sandals: Matisse

Hi everybody! It feels like it has been so long since I've done a real post! Life has taken over lately, which has been great, but I've been so busy! In fact, I can't even chat long now because it's already 4am (ahh!), so I'll make this short. The BF and I celebrated our 6 year anniversary this past week, so there has been tons of celebrating. One day we explored a park in the city and discovered this adorable garden tucked away among the trees. We had to take pictures, of course :) The outfit isn't anything special, but I just loved this garden so much I had to share it with you all! And I promise to be back tomorrow with more substantial posts!

PS- I literally haven't checked out any of the fashion shows other than those from NYFW, so do you have any suggestions of ones I should start with? I want to be inspired! Which have been the craziest?
