Totes Too Cute to Leave at Home
Straight from the makers of those chic cushions and neat Blik wall decals, the people over at Pillow Pillow Pillow let you take your breed love on the road with organic cotton totes. After all, you'd look pretty ridiculous carrying around a pillow. Water-based inks make up the simple silhouettes (all based on actual animals).
Fab Finding Followup: Pool Par-tay
Splish splash — I attended a super-fun pool party last weekend. Finding a splashy outfit is simple but the twist(er) was my parents were also in attendance. That's why I needed you to help me find a cute ensemble that wouldn't offend the elders.
Come Fab Finding With Me: Pool Par-tay
Splish splash — I'm heading to a fun pool party this weekend. Ready for the twist(er)? My parents will also be there, so that means no super crazy behavior and most importantly, no super skimpy outfits.
The Bag To Have: Longchamp "It Bag" Vertical Tote
It may be poking fun at the fact that exorbitantly expensive It bags are over, but this Longchamp "It Bag" Vertical Tote ($340) has stolen my heart. Could it be because it has French writing on it? Maybe.
Mommy's Lil Helper: Totes Are Totally Great
Once your child is potty trained there is no logical reason to lug around a giant diaper bag, but it's not easy to break the habit of having a changing and snack station on hand at all times.
After my hometown of San Francisco banned the use of plastic bags at all large grocery stores last year, I invested in a simple canvas tote like this Perfect Tote ($28) to use for grocery and around the town shopping. I like carrying it because it shows my children the environmental value of saying no to paper and plastic, but I soon found the sack is also perfect to stuff a bottle, wipes, snacks, sunscreen and band aids in for easy access without being weighted down.
The Bag to Have: Christopher Deane I Heart Bag
We've all seen, and probably own, I Heart New York gear, but now it's time to proclaim our own love. With Valentine's Day right around the bend, there's no better time to get this Christopher Deane I Heart Bag ($25) for the object of your affection. At that price, you can afford to get one for yourself, too.
Come Fab Finding With Me: Personal Finance Seminar
Confession: I'm not the sharpest when it comes to finance. Don't get me wrong, I know the basics, thanks to SavvySugar, but I want to learn more about investing my hard-earned money. To help point me in the right direction, a friend suggested I attend a personal finance seminar.
YumSugar Gift Guide: The Hipster Foodie
A friend of mine, who fits the classification of hipster to a T, also happens to love all things gourmet. Initially, I was at a loss for what to get her, but I quickly discovered that there's an array of niche gift items that converge at the juncture of food, music, and cutting-edge cool. Case in point: I have to get her this book about underground dining, and because she loves to push the envelope, I know she'll flip for this shopping bag.
