I recently got a new job which is fantastic news excpet for the stress of interviewing/replacing/training/wrapping up/starting over, etc. I have been on the hunt for a very very long time. So long that, when I go shopping and see a great but overpriced bag, I will say in my head: "That will be my reward for getting a new job." Afterall, I have to carry all the new work papers in something! Luckily for my budget though, this hasn't happened very quickly.
This morning I was fantasizing about said new work bag and was looking at these amazing leather bags by Orla Kiely:
And while I tell myself that the classic shape and color is practical, $700 simply is not. Which is too bad, because I've always loved this brand for it's bright pops of color and happy style. Her signature patterns just put a smile on face. Check out these amazing coffee mugs:
I could use a cute mug for the new desk at least right! But while $22 is not $700, this is still on the silly side to me. So now we are at a very long post about things I can't afford right? But then I remembered, Orla is doing a line for Target! Her limited-time collection includes trays (including a 2-tier one perfect for cupcakes!), tumblers, and yes...mugs! The selection is getting a little slim online but with the whole line starting at $8 (and mugs in pairs), you can bet I'll be headed to my local store for a few items.
