New Bag!

A few months ago, I was in NYC and while my girlfriends and I were in line at Starbucks, I saw a girl with the such a cute bag...and I remember thinking, I must have it!
Well, I forgot all about the bag after that wild weekend and when I went shopping this Saturday at my local mall, my mom and I stopped into our usual haunts; Lilly, Bloomies, etc and the window display at Burberry caught my eye so I stopped in (It was so colorful and bright and unexpected!). And there it was...the bag from NYC! I had planned on getting a few pieces from Lilly but thought the bag was a better buy...cost per wear as my mom pointed out! (I think she is a bad influence on me when it comes to shopping! But she did pay for half as an early graduation gift since she knows I have been working so hard to graduate in June with my Master's).
Anyway, I am the proud owner of a gorgeous new Burberry bag. Yey! And this picture doesn't do it justice! Its slim and lovely and has gorgeous hardware.

Hope you all had a great weekend and got a chance to try on some of the new Lilly; I found the pieces I liked pretty true fits...what did you think?

My New Year's Resolutions were going so well, until...

Lilly and Burberry sent me emails about new arrivals and new sale additions (respectively)!

Is it wrong to buy a new quilted coat in pink fuchsia because I don't wear my black one anymore? It is on sale...
Or how about a new dress...it is Three Kings day after all.
And with their New Year, New You promotion, I always love a gift with purchase.
Well, I am going to stick with my wait 24 hours and if I still love it and our finances can handle a little splurge, I will get them this weekend. Maybe I will pick one or the other to be a smidge on track with my spending. Which do y'all like?
Or maybe I should be a good girl and unsubscribe from all these emails so as not to have temptations around! (but its never any fun being good!)

PS, How gorgeous is this little cottage! The pictures are stunning; via NY Times article. I want a house like that; but would definitely need the amenities of heat and running water and such (I'm not much of a country gal!)
