Happy Weekend.

This week has been a bit topsy-turvy (a new theme in my life lately), so I’m thrilled that the weekend is here! It’s going to be filled with the Festival of the Arts, playoff game four of the Thunder v Lakers (4th row!) and dress shopping for a family wedding next month. Happy Weekend!

de Palma Handsewn Bags.

Canvas bags are the perfect accessory for summer. Big and roomy enough to toss in whatever you need for the day’s activities – sunscreen, a bathing suit, beer – and go! I’ve got my eye on these de Palma beauties. {via for me, for you}

dunhill Driving Gloves.

I’m head over heels for these handsewn classic driving gloves from dunhill. Surely it’s a sign from the universe that I need to run out and purchase the vintage Mercedes I’ve always yearned for. These babies just would have the same effect in my Nissan, no matter how zippy she is.

Skin & Bones.

Skin & Bones is only one product, but it does everything except fold your laundry. Moisturize your face and body, deal with wrinkles, heal cuticles, everything. Hard to believe, but true.

S&B’s organic essential oil is made of the best smelling things – jojoba, ylang ylang, rosewood, lemon, frankincense, myrrh, sandalwood, jasmine, grapefruit and cedarwood. So not only does it actually work for just about everything, but it smells amazing and could literally pass for a unisex cologne. It’s even safe to use on your kids and pets. And I’m not even going to get started on that awesome packaging and branding (check out the story of the bottle here).

Amanda Pearl.

Watercolor seems to be everywhere at the moment and I love that Amanda Pearl took the trend over to fabric. These little coin purses are so sweet. {via That’s Happy}

MALA Handbags.

Clutches always make me a bit nervous. I’m always afraid I’ll set mine down and walk away unknowingly. Because that’s the sort of thing I do. But these bags from MAKE.GOOD would be impossible to leave behind. I love the slim lines and bold, handprinted graphics.

Precious Ribbon Necklace.

Here I go again, reneging on my hate of yellow gold. This time it’s the Precious Ribbon Necklace, a simple bow made of a beautiful flat linked chain.

L.L.Bean Signature.

I haven’t so much as looked at an L.L.Bean catalog since junior high, when Tevas and anoraks were all the rage at summer camp. So I was pleasantly surprised last week when a friend brought their Signature collection to my attention. To die for. I’d gladly take one of each piece for my own wardrobe. A little preppier than I’m normally accustomed to, but so classic.
