Pink Holidaze

I ordered the bag .  And I'm so glad I did.  Here it is.   Definitely fits a laptop and books...and...   ...add this Skip Hop Pronto changing kit and it (anything) becomes a diaper bag. We got one of these right after Eloise was born and didn't use it as much at first, but now that she's getting older it's become super-handy.   p.s.   Here's a version on sale from PB  (and you can monogram it, too)...

I know this is kind of dorky, but I think this little Tory Burch purse keychain is so stinking cute. I can't add the link on my phone, but it's on the TB website.

I've been on a never-ending search for a perfect puffer vest over the years.  I think this is it { J.Crew Excursion Vest }.  It's thin.  AND it's pink.  And...   ... this shirt underneath would be even more perfect...   ...with this scarf ...and this bracelet ... Ok, I'll stop.

I'd really like this bag { Baggu Duck bag in Sailor Stripe } as my school bag.  I'm currently tearing up my nicer tote and am afraid I will ruin it forever.  Something a little heavier duty, but still professional would be nice to have.  And sailor stripes kind of make the world go round, don't they?  During any season, I think. Also, their iPad and computer cases are adorable.

Haven't decided if these are a go yet... What do you all think?  Do or don't?

Love this chalkboard laptop for little ones... { Chalkboard Laptop from Anthropologie }

She is growing up WAY, way too fast.  I can barely handle it. {Photos taken by my mother-in-law yesterday}

So, Minted is offering this pretty sweet new feature on their birth announcements (which are already really, really cute).  A new option of die-cut shapes to edge off your pretty design.  Most of the designs have a few shape options to choose from.  Along with your other typical Minted extras...backings, envelope liners (my fav), and wrap-around address stickers.  If you heart, use the promo code SHAPES to upgrade your order for free until August 22nd.  You can click here or visit the ad at the bottom of this post! p.s.   I've used Minted before .   My mom has, too.  And my friends.  They're awesome. :)

I know these fabrics are supposed to be for nurseries or kids' rooms, but I happen to think they might be  kind of perfect for living room curtains.  I especially like the last one (in coral and green...).   { LULU DK Child by Schumacher }
