There is nothing I like more than when someone calls, emails or approaches to let me know that they have purchased something I’ve recommended off the blog. But sometimes you have to throw practical and wearable out the window and just drool, you know? Especially right after the holidays when your credit card could use a break. I’m particularly lusting after the Louis Vuitton x Marc Newson Fleece Pack in natural. Don’t you think it would make the best overnight bag for my shopping trips to New York?
In a more realistic world, the Courreges X Eastpak collaboration is so RIGHT NOW. And the blue flower pattern in the Tumi x Collette collection is gorgeous and sophisticated. Which bag are you lusting after?
Ready, set, drool!
PS The Tumi and Eastpak bags would make great last minute gifts! Order them now and slip a picture of it in a fancy card…

Eastpak x Courreges
As some of you might be able to imagine, I never used the ubiquitous Eastpak backpack as a high school or college student. Instead I would find some kind of cool tote or designer-ish backpack. Actually, my “school” bag in college was Kate Spade when she first started out. I’ve been wrestling lately with going to some sort of backpack, especially when traveling with the kids. I might have found the one! Nylon that can be cleaned easily and a mod, clean look? Done! This would be the perfect gift for the fashionable college student if you are still looking!
