Style Love: Baggu
New things to love and covet. Jeeze Baggu gets me every single time. This time its with their revamped Backpack. While still maintaining the minimalist design they have managed to update it ever so slightly to be ever cooler than the original. I lost all my book bags in the great Post Office Debacle of 2013, so I’m in the market for a new one, and this one by Baggu seems just way too perfect.

It was created to bring people together in an intimate setting over food and conversation the company of old and new friends. Yes I am a lucky girl, this happens right next door. Love it. Anyway John, invited me over for some homemade gnocchi. Seriously. Continue reading
TOCCA Crema da Mano Luxe in Florence
Technically, I did not get this in my monthly subscription box I got this in a special limited edition Birchbox, but that is just a technicality. Oh, and the Birchbox this came in was 100% amazing and filled with the best things. But this hand cream completely stole my heart. Continue reading
