[UPDATE] I know I have yet to comment back, and have been lacking in visiting my lovelies on my blogroll, but it WILL HAPPEN SOON! I have not forgotten you all! Okay, now, back to work... [/UPDATE]
This is the kind of thinking that gets me through every work week. It's not that I don't like my job (I love it!), it's just that I'd much prefer sleeping in during the wee hours of the morning rather than spend it sitting in traffic, raging behind the wheel of my Mazda. And work days = early morning raging, while weekends = staying out late and sleeping in.
I like to sleep. Can you tell? I'd even go so far as to say that it's a hobby of mine.

Kooba Jaylin bag
I decided to pose with my go-to bag today. This is my trusty Kooba Jaylin purse, and I take this lovely little tote EVERYWHERE. It's quite roomy for something so tiny, and the long strap hanging down is handy for instant messenger-style carrying when I feel to lazy to lug it around on my arm. Yes. I get that lazy.
Kooba JacindaI'm hoping to own this one someday. It's the shoulder bag version of my precious Jaylin, and you better believe that it'd be my staple black bag if I can ever get it in my hot little hands!
I really really want your skirt! I will be searching ebay for it! also, the bags look fantastic. Normally I'm more into color in terms of everything, but I'm really loving this Jacinda black one.
ReplyDeletegreat skirt - it really makes the outfit! and the Kooba Jaylin looks like a great piece, the color seems really versatile.
ReplyDeleteLove the mix of colors in your outfit. I think sleeping is a hobby of mine too, the best is afternoon naps on the weekends, I just love sleeping.
ReplyDeleteLove your style- funky but chic, always pulled together! Great skirt, btw.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute outfit...and I love all your picture poses! I like your hand bag and I also like to carry my bags messenger style (it comes in handy holding my baby, too!). Btw, afternoon naps are my favorites!
ReplyDeleteTotally cute bag! I like the versatility of the strap. I'm always looking for things like that!
ReplyDeleteGreat mix of color! That skirt is great on you!
You kill me in that skirt. I loved it on you so I tried it for me and it was a fail. Now I will live through you.

ReplyDeleteAngela - Scour eBay for it! It's divine! And colored bags are something I always want, but never can convince myself to get! Is that weird? Haha!
ReplyDeleteChristina - The nude-ish color is incredibly versatile! Well, I wear it with everything anyway, haha!
Summerilla - Yay for sleeping! I don't take naps, though, I always have a headache when I wake up from them. So unfortunate!
Molly Darling - Aww, thanks!
JCMama - Messenger style bags are definitely useful! I think I wear it like that 90% of the time, even though I don't have anything as precious as a baby to carry!
Pamela - Thanks! I think the convertible nature of the bag is what originally drew me to it.
Sarah - Aww, sorry to hear it didn't work on you. I'll wear it for the both of us!
Kristin - NO, I didn't hear about that but now I'll be watching it like a hawk, haha!
Tatiana - Thanks!
Tastymoog - I wear them far too much! They're not the most comfortable things in the world, but they DO look adorable!

Patina - Thanks! I love colors, haha!
