add to cart: tory burch dayton messenger

umm so brad was right...  i wasn't totally sold on the ted baker weekender + ended up returning it for the tory burch dayton messenger.  i hated the fact that my stuff was sloshing around in the weekender.  best part about the dayton bag, besides the fact that it fits all my shit, is that the strap is convertible.  it can go from messenger slingy to shoulder-bag shorty.  cool, huh?  plus, it's not as busy as the weekender so i'm thinking it suits me better.  it was a bit pricer than the weekender, but was also on sale + i like it lots over the other so i figure it's ok b/c if i'm going to throw down any amount of money i'd better be in love w/ the damn thing.  brad is already betting i return it in a week b/c i'm a cheap-o-potamus + don't like parting w/ that kind of cash.  ugggggh!  shopping is soooooo hard!  heh!

add to cart: my new ted baker purse/laptop/everything "weekend" bag

i've been looking for a bag to replace my current one that is big enough to fit stuff like my camera + laptop + jackets + etc for when i/we travel, but nice enough to use as an everyday purse... found this guy in the clearance pile + totally fell in love w/ it, but was kind of freaked out by the (sale) price. did a little research on the designer + like his stuff. not too flashy yet very fem + fashion forward. seems like quality stuff so i guess i don't mind paying more than i expected. let's hope it holds up better than the patent marc jacobs faradiah that's on it's last legs...
