currently craving: Michael Kors Selma

I adore the subdued look of this navy (soon to be) classic...

very similar to the Coach Candace Carryall which is basically the mainstream version of the Celine Luggage tote.  That being said, the Michael Kors bag is still really lovely and definitely one that I'm looking into.  I love saffiano leather so it might just be my own bias here.

what do you think? is it a keeper or a pass?

ps - i think i'm going to take a short break this week. i really need some time to just get myself organized and together for school.  i hope you all have a wonderful week! be back soon :)

currently craving: warmer weather + Madewell Archive Boots

i can usually handle the east coast freeze 

but the wind was BLISTERING.

ugh.

i digress.

it's all been making me crave warmer weather. 

not even beach - like

just enough where i can wear something other than my rainboots or booties (or UGGs - not cute i know, but SOO comfortable...).

i've also been craving some boots

and maybe a new e-reader.

i'm loving Madewell boots

but i've found that it's hard to find boots that fit well with my wide calves.
