Monochromatic

Just found it interesting that everything in this photo is in cream, black or grey.

Madewell shirt, Minnie pants from J. Crew, Chanel espadrilles, Vanessa Bruno sequin tote

Incidentally, here's a closer look at my bag, a photo I took from last summer when Xavi was still in my tummy. Has it been a year? Time flies. Was just talking to friends and we can't believe May is here. That's like almost half way through the year!

This bag is older than Berry, and it still looks great. I remember to use it whenever summer rolls around because it just feels like the perfect hot, sunny day bag. So fresh and vibrant.

How about you? What's your favorite summer bag? Chika tayo!

Very Well, Madewell!

Finally! You've opened an online store! Like after forever! Now I don't have to step out of the house to check out what's new! Woohoo!

And I'm seeing so many things I like for summer!

romantic ruffle dress $88

wanderlust sumatra shirtdress $88

chignon dress $148

Plus Bensimons in a rainbow of colors! But at $65 for the vintage lace-ups, come on now! I got mine for $55 at Mick Margo! Although I do have to say, your ropey soles espadrilles are slowly drilling into my head. Never mind that I have 2 pairs of Toms plus a pair of pink espadrilles already. But nah, I think I'll pass.

 

Now, that's the bad thing about this whole shebang. It's just too easy to click and add to bag! Then again, I can always choose not to checkout! Ha!
