ACCESSORIZE

Confession from a Shopaholic:  I don't care for shoes.  Obviously need to wear them but I have a very small collection.  Not sure why.  Maybe becasue I am not drawn toward my feet {no surprise there, right sister?}.

But here is what I do love ... bags.  Handbags, tote bags, shopping bags.  Any kind of bag.  I still think about a bag I sold at a garage sale for $10 {think Coach} - WTF - I'm a pack rat, there was no need to get rid of that!!!

Speaking of pack rat, about 3 years ago, I dug out sunglasses I wore in my college days.  Circa 1991 Ray-Ban Aviators!  I saw a photo of Gwyneth wearing a pair so I went digging - score!  I love those sunglasses for many reasons.  And unlike shoes, I am definitely drawn to sunglasses but I don't really collect them.  I usually buy one pair and stick to them for a season or two and then move on.  Styles change so quickly.  But I think I'm going to start collecting.  I also now have a really great pair of Tory Burch shades {super fun Christmas gift}.  They are dark navy blue which is unusual.  Great especially for the winter.  And I just spotted a pair that I must have for summer:


as seen on the cover of the JCrew Catalog 
& sold thru JCrew on-line

Cutler and Gross® sunglasses $420.00

Super cool {until I saw the price tag} - yikes!  Does Santa come in April?
