red rouge

Three things I was very excited about this past weekend. One, taking out my new Valentina mini for a spin. Since my big Valentina satchel goes with everything, I figured picking up the mini was a foolproof choice. Surprisingly it's much roomier than expected and I can actually fit all of my essentials: phone, wallet, and even my new camera! (What's in her bag post coming soon?) I love the chain straps they've added to this line, and it clips off easily to convert into a clutch. Two, I could not wait to wear these heels! My cousin knew I'd been coveting them so when she spied them at a Target in Toluca Lake in my size, she snapped them up for me and surprised me by leaving them on my doorstep! Soo sweet, huh? And three, it was so nice finally being well enough to be out of bed and feel the warm sunshine on my face. I still wasn't feeling 100%, but red lipstick has a way of making you look way more put-together than you really feel, doesn't it?
