This weekend was glorious! The sun managed to come out and it was finally warm enough to wear a dress. But I'm not here to talk about the amazing dress. Because when it comes down to it, we all know that it's really about the bag!
I've been eyeing this bag for a while, but holding back. You see, neutrals and I haven't always gotten along well. And while investing in an everyday bag is one the best things anyone can do for their wardrobe, I tend to gravitate towards handbags that are flashy, trendy, and preferably pink. But there's something to be said about having a bag that literally goes with everything.
Sam Edelman Katarina Wedges + a fancy splurge//
Now that I've owned this beauty for a few weeks AND have realized how life-changing it is, I'll be sharing a full review tomorrow. So...
untill then!
Gorgeous bag!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteI am super guilty of buying all the fun colored bags and I really need to get some good neutrals! Also I am LOVING those wedges!!! And your skin is so great! Weird to say on a fashion post? Maybe, but it's true!!
ReplyDeleteI'm most guilty with the Kate Spade bags, it's like I know I don't need another one, but I can't help myself. It felt so weird for me to be buying such a "practical" bag, but I'm kind of obsessed with it now.
DeleteAnd the skin compliment was not weird at all. I'm happy to take a compliment whenever where ever
I see you hit up Old Navy!!! Love that dress on you, it goes perfectly with your skin tone and your bag :)
ReplyDeleteAlso I can't see the dress :( the link isn't working, it's loading the site but not the dress :(
I love bags that are versatile and everyday bags. Although mine is far from neutral at a brightish loud purple it goes with most of my wardrobe because of the color scheme I stay within, but definitely looks awkward in my bumming days where there is no color scheme.

Thanks Liz! And sorry about the link. You know, I had the same problem when I tried to link to your dress so I'm thinking it's the ON website. Hopefully, it gets sorted out soon. And your smart to dress within a color scheme. My closet is so all over the place with color that getting dressed can be hard with matching things together
DeleteYou are absolutely gorgeous! 😍 And love that bag! I have the cognac leather tote from J.Crew that's similar to the Madewell Transport, but the mini zip transport is next on my list. It literally does go with everything! Can't wait to see more of your Spring summer looks! Xoxo and I hope all is well! These days you know where you can catch me: studying for boards or on "the gram"! Just two more months to go!
ReplyDeleteI'm assuming your referring the the J Crew Downing Tote? I have that too, but mine is in navy. I'm bummed it's not still available because I would probably get the cognac one too. And I definitely considered the mini transport too, but it was smaller than I was expecting.
DeleteAnd I know how stressful studying is. I would go from feeling like I was going to rock it to feeling like I knew absolutely nothing in the course of an hour. Keep pushing girl
And do your sandals run true to size? 3 inche heel?
ReplyDeleteYes true to size. And I checked, they are apparently 41/2 inches, which is news to me. They don't feel that high at all. Sam Edelman is my favorite shoe brand because of how comfy they are, like you can actually wear then all day with no problems.
DeleteA neutral bag that goes with all outfits is definitely key for everyday wear. I love hoe you matched it perfectly with the shoes. I also like medium to large bags for my everyday purse so I can fit all the essentials plus a planner and other odds and ends.
ReplyDeleteExactly, everything in one place. Plus if I'm completely honest, I'm too lazy to constantly switch bags, so neutral is the way to go
