I remember your post about the chalk Parker. I love that bag, too. I guess I am questioning why I want a Parker when I already have two Dinkies and really enjoy carrying those bags. Do I need more? It’s that brass tearose turn lock that I really love.
I love the Parker! I think it's the perfect size for those who don't carry a lot like us. :angel:
 
I think it’s a good serviceable shoulder bag. It stays nicely on my shoulder which can be a problem with skinny straps.

Here she is after a bath and stuffed with towels. That’s my Coach cosmetic case (same size as the LV cosmetic case PM) and cles for comparison. I’ll turn it over after a bit and let the water keep draining out. I’m thinking about a cute charm for it. Maybe a fluffy, colourful Pom Pom charm!

She cleaned up beautifully! Such a great find!
 
Going a little crazy! :panic:But we're excited too! Thanks for asking. In the morning, it's tough for me to figure out what to do first, so I'm trying to focus on little things first and then on from there. We have movers coming on June 3 although I am boxing some things that are really important to me or some things I am definitely taking in my car like jewelry. DH has taken a couple trips to Georgia to move some belongings for us like my mom's china and other things. We have some stuff there already, and we have a furnished bedroom until our stuff gets there.
Black cardigans--yes! Black shoes--absolutely. Every time I buy a pair of shoes that aren't black, I seem to return them!! What's better than an LBD than a black skirt???
You're almost there! Hang tight.
 
Wow! This is so beautiful! You waited a long time! We have a giant pink azalea bush with a small, growing, area of magenta. I wonder why it's started changing colors. You can kind of see the lighter pink in the back. I love when it blooms every spring and wish the flowers lasted longer. Did you know the entire azalea plant is extremely poisonous? That's the one downside.
View attachment 4447263 I look forward to seeing your new blooms!
So pretty! I had an azalea bush a while back but my hydrangea grew so large and crowded it and I finally had to put it out of its misery lol RIP
 
I didn’t share one! When it grows in I’ll share some pics. Right now everything is teeny tiny, she needs a couple months haha! I’m not a super gardener or anything, I just plant whatever!
I plant whatever too. I am not a "real" gardener. lol We often buy random annuals, and some that we know work well, each year and see what happens. This year we went to 3 - 4 different flower sales on a Saturday morning, and picked up some new and different ones. Everything is just blooming like crazy--so pretty. We do have some perennials, but some of them do not come back as well as others, so we fill in with annuals.
 
Well, I am happy and sad to say my FOS items came in wonderful condition! lol. I guess that means I am keeping them. I am trying to remind myself that they are items I really like that I normally would not have been able to purchase (without all of the discounts--because the special features of the handbags raise their base price a lot).
