Definitely... it's give and take though. Entering the "real world" isn't going to be much fun, but at least I can face it with my Chanel

I have a couple of new additions to the family!

First is a little item... I recently purchased a Kindle because I have long commutes to my internship (about 2 hours each way) and this is a way for me to get my reading in without having to stuff books in my purse! Of course, I needed a case to go with it.

After looking around and finding really cute cases that were unfortunately even pricier than the Kindle itself, I stumbled upon this cutie from... St. Jude Children's Research Hospital's Hope Gift Book. It was only $7.99 (plus shipping) and is made by Juicy Couture! I love the floral design, the soft fleece lining and the inner pocket, and the rose charm on the zipper pull. It's even coated in plastic for easy cleaning! Plus, I really couldn't beat the price and the fact that it contributes to a good cause. It's still available on the Hope Gift Book online shop if anyone wants to purchase it too!

And... after much debate and drama (shipping mishaps, etc.), I finally settled on my 20th birthday present! I knew that I wanted a nice quality, classic, black leather tote... but one that wasn't boring. I wanted to be able to use it for professional events, but also for going out with friends. At first, I fell in love with the Tory Burch Robinson Tote. But after I got it in the mail, I really hated how it looked on me. It was big, boxy, and all around awkward.

Then, I decided to finally try out the Michael Kors Hamilton Tote. I had been hesitant in the past because I saw the bag everywhere, but once I got this one in the mail, I knew it was the one. It's the perfect size without overwhelming my petite frame! Can't wait to use it.

Great collection!!! Thank you for sharing!

Nice!

I LOVE your detail for each item! And I can't stop drooling over your chanel! Everything is lovely!

HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY!

Happy belated birthday to you!
You have an impressive collection, given your age. Its full of quality pieces.

Thanks for sharing!

Great collection!

Added this Tory Burch tote to my collection a couple of weeks ago -- finally showed up on my doorstep! So perfect for school, and it was a steal on Bonanzle thanks to a great tPF seller.

Painted some more TOMS... the Dreamcatcher pair is for myself, but the Peacock pair was for a sorority sister.

Trouvé Quilted Leather Motorcycle Jacket from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale... I fell in love with this from the moment I saw it. When it came in the mail, I was devastated because I originally purchased size S, which was too big on me. I decided to return it in-store.... where they had the last size XS! It was meant to be. I can't wait until fall to wear this. The leather is so buttery soft.

Love the leather jacket, and all your bags (particularly your newest MK and the Chanel!). It's nice to see another accounting major:)

Nice collection! Wish I had started with designer bags when I was in college but instead I'm twice your age and just getting started

I love your customized TOMS! I've 7 pairs myself and been considering doing something with them. Awesome job!
