3 things I'd like to Pursue Right Now ♥

I want something new every single day, but I recently purchased a new car so my old impulse shopping has got to go! But when I do come across a little extra cash these are the things i might try first :

Lilly Pulitzer First Impression Murfee Scarf

Tory Burch Reva Flats

A perfect Saddle Bag

These are the few things I'm really yearning for at this very moment and wouldn't mind splurging on if I could ♥

Notice Something? ♥

This little beauty right here is Tory Burch's Edye satchel, new to previous Edye bags & her new spring arrivals.
Well remember her too? Celine Luggage tote that I have been obsessed with for about 4 months now. Notice something about the two? I certainly do ! They look exactly alike, just different shapes, different leather, different brand & a way different price! As soon as I saw the Edye the Luggage tote came to mind and I was in love! The Edye is half the price of the Luggage tote going for $575 and also comes in black.

Now this sophisticated tote is the Prada Lux Saffiano and after some research on forum and the usual browsing I came across ......
This Tory Burch Robinson tote. Once again we see a gorgeous bag emulating another gorgeous designer bag, but for half the price & made just as well. Who doesn't love great quality for half the price?

If you've been dying for The Saffiano or The Luggage tote but didn't want to spend every little penny you have ever saved these two Tory Burch alternatives are just as amazing. I am all about getting great deals and what better way to get a great deal than to get it from another awesome designer. Now you can get the look for less with great quality leather ( I heard Tory Burch has some bags with non scuff leather! ) and they look just as amazing! ♥

Flat out similar ♥

A good pair of simple flats is a necessity to every girl, I mean every girl. You can wear flats with pretty much everything from business attire (after the long day & once you've left the office of course) , date night apparel, city trip outfits, even your wedding dress . So here is a great list of some great flats for every budget & to make it even better, they all look the same!

Lanvin Paris ballet flats - approximately $500

Gap City Flats - $40-$50

Vera Wang Lavender Label Lilian Flats- $195

Tory Burch Eddie Flats - $178

Of course there are differences between all of these, but you can not lie they are very similar.They all come in a wide variety of basic colors & seasonal colors. I love that there are alternatives to the Lanvin flats because i definitely want a pair, but I can settle with other great brands now ♥

Happy Birthday Lauren, 25 Never Looked So Good ♥

Today is Lauren's 25th Birthday! I absolutely love her and everything about her, she is amazing! We first met Lauren in 2004 during Laguna Beach and watched her mature into the wonderful person she is now on The Hills. We watched all her phases and life lessons, they might have even helped with ours. I personally read every magazine she is in, and you get to learn alot about her through her interviews. She is a real person, who had real issues (even if some were twisted around for the cameras) and she has survived. I love her style, like many other girls , it's simple, yet not too simple and very chic and elegant, but laid back.

Lauren has been very successful within the past few years, 2 great clothing lines ( and one in the making) , a great show ( another one in the making as well) , 4 great books, and countless magazine covers internationally.

Happy Birthday Lauren, Enjoy ♥

Everybody loves Hamilton ♥

These little beauties are the Michael Michael Kors Hamilton tote/satchel. I personally fell in love with this style after seeing my best friend's mom's bag in black. It so classy and chic, I can hardly take it! I love that it reminds me of the Hermes Birkin bag & a little bit of the Celine Boston/Luggage bags, but much more affordable!

It comes in three different sizes & even a smaller crossbody version! I've seen a variety of colors all over the web. You can find it on the Michael Kors website & store, Nordstrom, Macy's , Bloomingdales etc. There have even been rumors that older colors have been spotted in TJ Maxx stores. So if you have been wanting that Birkin or Celine bag, try this one out for size ♥

Pursuit of the Year ♥

So early last year, maybe February, I purchased my first Louis Vuitton bag. It was a Monogram Canvas Speedy 25 & I got an amazing deal on it thanks to my good old pal Ebay . Well I decided that this year I would purchase another bag and unlike my first pre-loved speedy, I'm going to venture into the Louis Vuitton store & get personal with the SA's .

I'm not too sure which one I want for sure yet, but I know I'm going for a Neverfull MM. Question is Damier Ebene or Damier Azur?

Both bags are beautiful to me. I have always loved the classy look of the Damier Ebene , but I feel the Azur is different and not seen as often. I kind of feel the Azur might be too summer-bagish . If you know me , you know I have a replica Damier Ebene GM (I know, I know) , but since I'm getting older and making better decisions I feel a legit one would be a great investment.

I'm very indecisive and impatient when it comes to bag purchases so I need the time to think about this one ♥

Tory's Must Haves (In My Opinion) ♥

I'm a very big fan of Tory Burch , and although I do not own anything from the brand (yet) , I have done some research and know where I want to start.

Logo Belt

Simone Cardigan

These are just what I feel would be great essentials to start off with ♥
