Outfit: American Woman

american woman
Marc by Marc Jacobs Victorian tee, TEXTILE Elizabeth & James Jimi low-rise flared jeans, Dolce & Gabbana Green Leo Pumps, Givenchy Nightingale, Chanel vintage necklace, Topshop lipstick in "Nevada," Nars Monoi Body Glow II, Kevia Rococo stone cluster ring. For further details, click here.

In all seriousness though, the other day at work I was given the opportunity to hold this bag myself (the Givenchy Nightingale). I mean, let's be real, I see ridiculous designer purses on a pretty much daily basis at my job, even crazy purses that I've only seen online I sometimes see in the stores where I work, but holding one of these bags is a totally new experience.

Everything from the quality of the leather to the craftsmanship is intricate; no joke, it was the most comfortable purses I've ever held. There was thought behind everything which proved the logistics behind the price. (Hers had this awesome strap of woven leather with some badass hardware).

Anyway, just one of those experiences that excited me immensely and probably makes people roll their eyes. Guess I'm just superficial that way.

Minka Kelly: Work Inspiration

I'm currently in the process of moving out, and with that for me comes starting fresh. I am trying to gut my closet and re-work my wardrobe, and I need some casual but still chic looks for work, as that's where I spend most of my days. Minka Kelly looks super cute but stylish in this outfit that I'll be channelling for summer 2011.

Alexander Wang Large Emile Tote

My search for the perfect everyday bag has officially ended with the arrival of Alexander Wang's latest beauty: the large Emile tote. In the most supple pitch black leather (that would only get better with age and the rugged use I would put it through...), it is the perfect size and can easily be dressed up or down.

One little problem...I may need to boost my bank account for this buy...at $984.89 it is quite the investment. Buy it for me here.*
