    Tote of the Week: Screenprinted Tote by Maianka

    Via Maianka It’s been a rather lovely week full of excitement and unexpected craziness. There seems to be so much going on at that moment but I’m thankful for every bit of it. I had a few days of being poorly, which soon passed, and now the week is done I’m looking forward to catching up on some reading, talking about our new house (eep!) and seeing my sister. As for the tote, it’s a simple one this week that pulled at…

    Tote of the Week: Happy Friday by Petite Mila

    Via Petite Mila This tote says it all really, doesn’t it? It’s a perfect little number for spreading some pre-weekend joy. It’s been a long week in our neck of the woods so a mid morning lie-in will be very much appreciated. I’m going to try and relax and think of positive thoughts about our future home (and drink a little wine too). Enjoy your weekend and keep smiling! ♥ P.S On the hunt for a new tote bag? Take a…

    Tote of the Week: Oh I Bloody Love A Good Tote by Oh Squirrel

    Via Oh Squirrel I have to give credit to the lovely Vicky of Owl and Accordion fame for letting me know about this beauty. Designed by the ever so clever Katie, creator of the Oh Squirrel brand, this litte tote was made to live on my shoulder and carry my bagels. Thank you Vicky for the tip-off! Happy Friday! ♥ P.S On the hunt for a new tote bag? Take a look through my previous tote bags featured.

    Tote of the Week: Triangle Tote by My Live Love

    Via My Live Love  I discovered My Live Love on Etsy after spotting some particularly pretty notebooks whilst half watching the Brazil match last night. It would be rude not to look at the hand screen printed tote bags for sale too, especially when they look like this. Mono print? Check. Geometric? Check. In the shape of a tote bag? Sold! Well, I didn’t actually buy it (you might have guessed I have a tote problem), but it is most definitely…

    Tote of the Week: Large Slouch bags by Tove Johansson

    Via Tea and Kate Another week has passed and we have one more May Bank Holiday to celebrate – hurrah! I’d love for it to be full of sunshine but to be honest if it’s grey and miserable it gives me an excuse to read and write and quietly potter with jobs around the house. Grand. My week was a good one. Busy, but good. I received a lovely phone call from a client who was overjoyed with the copywriting…

    Tote of the Week: Up In The Clouds by Bread and Jam

    I’m finishing this week with what I think is a damaged nerve in my back. Sharp sudden bursts of pain when I laugh, twist, and stretch? Best not laugh, twist or stretch then, eh? I can walk though so it aint all bad. Dosed up on pain killers, I reckon I’ll be somewhat away with the fairies today so this tote by Bread and Jam reflects my hopefully temporary state. I’m looking forward to the weekend with glee, mainly because it will involve…

    Tote of the Week: Ta-Da! Bag by Alphabet Bags

    Ta-da! tote bag by Alphabet Bags  A super quick post today whilst I’m heading to Leeds for the London train – choo choo! Excuse my excitement, I get ridiculously giddy travelling on trains, more than anyone should really. Ahem. Anyway, I’m carrying my sturdy leather tote with me today as it’s not the best weather for the humble cotton tote bag. If the sun was shining however I’d be all over this Ta-da tote bag from the always awesome, Alphabet Bags.…

    Tote of the Week: Big Fish, Little Fish Bag by Hey! Holla

    Big Fish, Little Fish Bag by Hey! Holla Although this tote bag reminds of PJ Harvey whispering ‘little fish, big fish, swimming in the water’  rather than 90s rave scene, I totally DIG IT! Funny how a little cloth and words can make a gal smile? Well, this one anyhoo. Other things that are making me smile today are a big bag of Haribo sweets and the start of a 11 day holiday spent at home working, crafting, organising and exercising.…

    Tote of the Week: You Are My Dreamboat by Helen Entwisle

    Via Talented Totes I’m feeling a tad giddy today. It’s been a pretty awesome week full of goodness and hatching plans, so awesome in fact I’m going to squeeze it all into one paragraph! The OH has now finished his work gallivanting, and I was rewarded with his ace face and Fortnum and Mason treats (tea, biscuits, champagne truffles and a tote bag – wah?!). Ooh, we ate out at our local pub this week and had the BEST meal.…

    Tote of the Week: Je T’aime Shopper by Atsuyo et Akiko

    Via The Pippa and Ike Show  The first week of April has been rather kind and full of all of the good stuff; space raiders, fresh cold milk, Girls (as in HBO series), conquering a mahoosive to-do list, banana chips, planning trips, dancing in my pj’s to Tom Tom Club, kind and jolly people making me happy, Game of Thrones (new series next week!), ace emails, and a rather spectacular fish finger buttie. Not bad April, not bad. Happy Friday! P.S…

    Tote of the Week: Chat Shopper Bag by Audrey Jeanne

    Via Audrey Jeanne   Well, my day/week/month/year has been made today. Kate Bush has announced a 15 show tour (in London) for later in the year. Oh my. She’s an artist I never thought I’d get to see live and next Friday, when the tickets go on sale, I will have the opportunity of listening to her awesomeness. Be still my beating heart. A weekend of Kate Bush classics me thinks? Happy Friday! ♥ P.S Don’t forget to enter the…

    Tote of the Week: Random Crap Bag by Happy Jackson

    Random Crap Tote by Happy Jackson via Ohh Deer   Today, March 14th, is all kinds of awesome. Firstly, my friend Amy has launched her online shop, Clarence and Alabama! Not only is the shop named after the BEST film, True Romance, it is filled with vintage inspired dresses, for every occasion. I’m so chuffed for her – please go take a look and say hello. She’s a good egg. Secondly, I’m off to the movies tonight. Popcorn, Matthew McConaughey…
