In a quest to prove you guys, my loyal readers who’ve stuck by me through my blogging hiatus, I’m adding new features to spice things up a bit.
I typically snap pictures of things I like while out shopping and my MMS is usually buzzing with pictures from friends who want my style advice, so I figure why not share it with you all. With that said, I’m adding a new feature, Fashion on the Fly. I’m all about virtual shopping (shopping with friends via phone while we’re both out and in stores), so I hope you all enjoy.
Have a wonderful Sunday afternoon and enjoy what’s left of the too-short weekend.
Quick Flick: Purchased last night as I was going for an all black everything look. I was in and out of the store in less than 15 minutes. *thinking* That’s got to be some sort of record for me.

I’ve recently taken a liking to discount retailers like TJ Maxx and Ross. I’ve found a few bags as of late for TJ Maxx and Ross is great for home/kitchen items. I purchased the Marc Ecko Charisma Rounded Hobo Friday evening. I actually entered the store with one thing in mind and came out with the bag instead…that seems to happen to me alot for whatever reason. As I didn’t know the style name, I Goodle’d Maro Ekco and to my surprise, I found the exact bag on Macy’s site – for $79.00. Learning that I saved $40 makes me happy! 
The bag features a removable shoulder strap (I kept the strap on as I figured it added another element of interest) =, whipstitch and stud detailing; double E tag and two organization pockets. The color is actually closer to a tomato red than what the pictures illustrate.

Since I found the Steve Madden bag in my neighborhood TJ Maxx a few weeks ago, I’ve made it a point to visit once a week to see what I can find.I snagged this black and white clutch last week because I figured it would be great for a night out. It was also available in black and gold, but I thought this one popped a little more. Priced at $14.99, even if I only carry it once, I will get my money’s worth. Have you made any purchases lately that you’d like to share? Give us a Peep Show!

The Toledano Jewel Love Bag it’s super adorable and I wish I could say super affordable but umm…not so much! It’s smaller than a clutch – it looks like the size of a coin purse - but ladies you need big dollars if you ever wanted to own it. I wonder who can afford to pay for a coin purse. Personally, I wouldn’t purchase it even if I could afford it just on principle. Nevertheless it’s cute. Are you feeling this Fantasy File? Be sure to leave your two cents in the comment section.

The bright green hue of the Bottega Veneta Cocolave Crocodile Tote grabbed my attention right away. It was only when I saw the price tag that I had to check it out further because I figured it was made of some extinct (yes, I meant extinct, not endangered) animal. That’s the only rationale I could come up with to explain a $24,000 handbag. That’s like walking around carrying your student loans, a car or a down payment on your arm. As my bff would say, they are real proud of their stuff. Clearly.
The vibrant green crocodile tote features pewter-tone hardware. It has a short handle with ring detail, a detachable small press-stud fastening case with key and padlock inside, Intrecciato and eyelet detailing at top, a fold-over flap at front, a taupe suede lining, an interior zip-fastening pocket, an interior pouch pocket and stud feet at base. Seriously, I was waiting to read something like, “this bag comes with a two round trip tickets to Bottega Veneta factory to watch them being made”.
Luckily I already purchased a bag in the same color family so I’ll be just fine this Spring. With my purchase, I saved a grand total of $23,970. Ha!
