alpaca bag, we'll run away

Etsy user Magicmiss sent me the cutest accessories to style and share with y'all, and I couldn't be more in love with what I've received. Not only did Roi @ Magicmiss send me a lovely sailor moon necklace, and 2 bone clips ( which you can get here ), but she even made me a custom pin for my fur baby ROCOCO!

You can find the dress here , I got it in a UK size 14. Needless to say, it was a stellar mail week!

But recently I've begun to notice my taste has taken a turn toward quality, too. I no longer want to spend less money on cheaper clothes/bags/shoes that will fall apart in a month. Quality means you can own things longer, ultimately saving money if it lasts long enough, and the more you wear something well/hand-made, the more it feels like yours .

(I don't like wine, so let's change that to a fine cheese).  Anyway, the latest bag to give me heart-eyes is the leather satchel from Trinity Place Department Store (in NYC). The best part of this bag is that it's real leather, it's hand-crafted, will last years and year - AND IT ...
