Which raises the question of: after all the experimenting and having fun with my outfits, what am I going to wear for balanced and appropriate outfit?

Bag of the..
World, say hello to my new baby, LAUREN BY RALPH LAUREN Newbury N/S Leather Tote Bag in Kelly green. It measures: 13" W x 14" H x 5" D with a should drop of 9”.
The leather is stiff and holds its shape completely. The bag looks totally structured, so unique in usually soft and foldable tote bags. It also has a very interesting texture, and of course there is the gorgeous color. I have been in search of a green bag in a nice shade for a few years and this one, in a hue between emerald and Kelly green is just perfect.
The bag is huge but it holds lots of note and papers, my laptop, wallet, two sets of key chains, make up pouch, sunglasses and a paperback novel quite easily. Plus there is still room for a snack or two somewhere in it! Of course, it becomes heavy too and my shoulder aches as the proof!

Cuffed!
* Can it be called a bijou even if it is not shiny, metallic or covered in crystals?

The sloppy effect!
A lot of people do the folded legs on their skinny jeans when worn with flats, I like the French cuff better, much neater!

Bag of the week:
I bought this pretty some years ago (4-5 maybe) and have used it only a few times. It is so darn tiny! My wallet and phone fill it up completely and can’t even add a lipstick! Despite the size, it is cute and the leather is gorgeous, so it stays as one of my darlings!

Totally Profesh!
Art of the week:
Better late than never, I say!
I am a big Van Gogh fan, in case you didn’t know. There is so much energy and movement in his work. Also look at all those vivid colors!

What I loved this week:
-“eos” lipbalm in Sweet Mint. Have been debating its purchase for sometime now. It is supposed to be “95% organic, 100% natural, and paraben and petrolatum free. Packed with antioxidant-rich vitamin E, soothing shea butter and jojoba oil”. Other flavors are: Summer Fruit, Lemon Drop SPF 15, Strawberry Sorbet , Honeysuckle Honeydew, Medicated Tangerine .
My verdict: it is wonderful to apply and feels wonderful. Is not too greasy and the packaging is ultra cute! I am going to try their hand lotion next!
-Polka dots. My polka dot frenzy not a new obsession however cute swimsuit are new! I mean I hate swimming but for the sake of these babies, I am willing to brave the tides!
-Neutral blush colored handbags. I have been looking for the perfect one for a whole year. Hasn’t found one yet. But am becoming quite interested in this one:

Looking for inspiration: Mint
How to match up mint? Since it has become one of spring’s hottest colors, I dug up a few minty pieces I had and am looking for other colors to match them with. My research indicates it is a good match for many colors specially orange and purple. Despite this spring’s trend of pairing pastels with more pastels (which undoubtedly would make me look like a zombie!), I am going to take the high contrast road and pair it with royal blue, navy, even mustard. Ooh, fuchsia looks good with it too!
