Everyday Tote:

 An Afternoon in Winnemac Park

After all my tote obsession, it's only fair I share my everyday tote pick:

When I saw Jess LC's  booth at a recent market at The Daley Center, I had no choice but to check it out.  After all, it was so well curated and had all these pops of neon.  It was there that I saw her new line of totes bags.  Not only are they well made (in the USA) and super fresh with her color choices, but I adore her fun play on inspiration.  "Just Keep Swimming"   What a great reminder!

Be sure to check her out, she has lots more inspiration in her Shop & on her Blog!

Totes Tote:

 Man, those super cool Baggu ladies have had quite the summer adding to their collection.  They collaborated with Mer Bags with this one and offer five different color combos.  Would love to rock this as a Fall bag to pop against all the jewel tones.  Love the two "highlighter" colors together and what's that...a lil Made In America tag?  That's right, a totes tote for sure.  

For more on Mer Bags, check out their blog!

Totally forgot about this little cutie!  I did this in DC for a figure drawing class.  She makes it hard not to feel happy, right?  I'll have to make sure I dig her out & frame it for the new place.  Oh yeah, I'm moving...in with the BF!  SCHWING!  Fingers crossed we can find a place we are excited about.  Chicago apartments are going like hotcakes right now.
