Default New mini additions
Hi ladies, after the slew of unhappy 'unreveal's recently, I thought I'd try and cheer things up a little with a couple of new mini additions I got recently.

Here are my mini additions:

A baltic cosmetic pouch and a matita cardcase (which I totally missed out on during the June sale)

First with flash and second without. Both from 2 lovely tpfers- you ladies know who you are

Also, I had trouble figuring out what to do with my cosmetic pouches other than using them to store miscellaneous stuff in my bags then all of a sudden, it hit me- convert them into wristlets! I wanted to wait till the Dec sale to see if I could pick up a phone strap to loop through the zip but I needed a wristlet urgently so I decided to use the H ribbons that I had lying around.

Here are a few pics of what I did:

What do you guys think?

Adding the ribbon is a good way to keep it attached to you!

Nice going! Both items are great. I've never seen matita or baltic in person, but I sometimes regret not going for them when I had the chance.

I have a small phone strap attached to my Knot, but it's truly just a strap and not a wristlet. If you want a true wristlet, you might consider the medium size length.

Thanks everyone I'm loving baltic and wish I snagged a bag in that colour. It goes amazing with jeans!

Thanks for the tip blueiris! Gotta say it was the image of the phone strap on your knot that got me thinking about how to convert the pouches into wristlets. Will definitely look into getting the medium length ones.

Now I just got to think of what colours from F/W 09 will go with baltic and mela...
