Lo, I LOVE the color of your new bag. Just stunning.

And what a nice compliment to receive on your pewter SPM!!!!!

Loquita ... I love your new "The Sak" bag! How cool that it gives you two looks for one and the tan leather looks lovely! Can't complain about the price either!

UK ladies, if you like the look of this gorgeous bag, there are several 'The Sak' bags very well reduced in my local branch of TKMAXX, including a lovely covertible black hobo.

Might be worth you going for a look?

It has heavenly leather, very soft and squishy, and wonderful details -- and it cost me $129!!!! (They could easily charge twice that).

It's two bags in one. First a satchel:

Then a hobo:

Also comes in a million colors, all of which are so pretty. I am pretty pleased with my "bargain" bag!

Love this especially the cool braiding and that gorgeous tan color.

Had a bit of a shoe splurge recently, but in my defence I have thrown away 3 pairs which were falling apart.

(The sandals are very sensible but they are so darn comfy!)

Sorry but I can't remember as I was fighting with myself over whether to buy 2 different bags (I am still resisting both). I think in the region £39.99 or perhaps £49.99.

My sister has introduced me to a new vice, which has just opened an Outlet in Brighton for 4 months (maybe more).

Thanks for the tip Jenova. I Have been trying for ages to find one in an European online store but have not had any luck yet. Maybe I will have to ask my sister to go and have a look at the store in Brighton. She is not into handbags so she might not do it...

Well at least I know where to head for the SAK handbags when I am in the UK next time...

Fabulous buys, CB. They look a lot like the line called Soft (by Born) which are the most comfortable shoes around.

Oooooh....oh! I bought some sexy red patent wedge sandals......open toe.....sensible according to CB.....they're from Geox and broken toe aside, they're pretty chic!

Here's my non-BE purchase from yesterday. I think I'm still in shock, after driving a Mom Car for the last 15 years. Her name is Trixie...she counts as an accessory, right?

Tarantino · Jul 12th, 2009, 01:10 PM

Wow Pixie - I'm expecting some bag photos in your car thread from you then!

loveuga · Jul 12th, 2009, 03:58 PM

I just picked up two Love Quotes scarves from ShopBop yesterday... while supplies last, they are having a 2 for $120 sale

That is one of the best accessories that I've ever seen!

Love it!
