New Obsession: Leather Purses

My friends have just gotten me into the whole huge leather purse thing. I mean just look at how cool my friend's bag looks. Of course nothing I buy will quite be up to par to her Proenza bag but I'll try to make do. 


The all black purse is from Forever 21. I forget how much it was but it was definitely less $30. I actually paid full price for this purse, which is a rarity for me since I never pay full price for anything. I thought I could make do with just one purse but then I saw that other purse on sale at Charming Charlie's for $19.99 (originally $39.99). I brought a friend to help me decide and I did end up buying it and I'm so glad I did. I use that one all the time too. I have to admit, ever since I've bought them, they have become my favorite purses. They are both so roomy and so sturdy and pretty much go with anything I wear. I love these purses so much.



Now me and my friend can match. I shout her out because she actually took most of these pictures. Not to mention she takes such nice pictures on my things and me on my IG. Photo credits to her on that pic of my black bag. I just don't know how to do layout pictures. So go on and check out her instagram thirteenoctobers. Also, I've gotten more into this style because of her. We are starting to become matchies. The photo taken below is also from her. Can you tell which one is me?

Post Winter Sweater Haul

I specifically point out post winter because now all this winter stock is going on sale. And if there is something I love, it's getting a good deal. Not to mention, these sweaters can still be used for Spring! It's still a bit chilly so it's perfect for the weather.

My favorite place to get really comfortable sweaters is Banana Republic. I've gotten five sweaters from there before and just recently, I got three more. This makes a total of eight sweaters from there and I love all of them. They are so comfortable and I feel like I'm turning into my parents because they love shopping there too. Unlike them, I never pay full price though. So for the sweaters, two of them are basically the same, just in different colors, one white and one black. They were originally $79.99 then reduced to $35.99 but there was an extra discount of 40% off sale items, making them $21.59 each. The third sweater was a plain black one, which I noticed I was lacking. It was originally $69.99 but then reduced to $37.99 then the additional 40% off made it $22.79 in the end.





That was originally the last sweaters I would buy, or so I thought. A trip to J.Crew convinced me otherwise since this nice blue sweater with sequins at the end was just calling out to me. It was originally $79.50 then reduced to $54.99 then 40% off making it $32.99 in the end, which is just too good to pass up.


Alright, I have to stop myself from buying anymore sweaters. I might just have too many now. Anyway, get these winter items now while they are on sale! And if you have any favorite places to get comfortable and affordable sweaters, please tell me!
