Shopping finds & a major Summer pet peeve of mine.

Another Summer is upon us and thankfully the weather has been holding up nicely.  A bit too hot and humid on some days but acceptable any day over cold Winter days.  Besides,  our bodies get to make natural Vitamin D.  Bonus! That being said, I truly hope you all are having an enjoyable Summer.  It's short so do make the best of it.

Recently, I did some seasonal shopping and would like to share my finds with you. :)  In my effort to reduce plastic bag usage,  I went in search of fashionable handbags that can be used for carrying a huge amount of items all in one bag.  I stumbled upon these at Bentley and simply couldn't resist investing in them.  My first thought was, "how chic!" Plus, I love the colors, so summery! What do you think?  Today hubby & I took the kids to the water park and the floral one housed all of their stuff plus a few of my items.  Super!




The coral one especially is so fashinable with the heart adornment. See picture below:



On this very day, I also decided to invest in this beautiful Guess Crossbody bag.  I love this one so much for it's convenience and it's also chic.  Perfect for moving around with the children!





Now onto some clothing items.  I'm by no means a T-Shirt girl and if you're connected with me on FB or my friend in real life, you must be aware of this fact.  However,  in my attempt to preserve my dressy pieces, I decided to get some T's. And of course it had to be somewhat dressy...LOL So, I headed to Aeropostale, and I'm so glad I took a trip there because I came away with 5 T's for $54, taxes included.  Woo Hoo! I had so much fun picking out my favorite colors and have to tell you, these are super soft and comfy.  I'm so excited and can't wait to sport 'em with my DIY distressed jean shorts. 



And finally, let me share one of my major Summer pet peeves with you.  It's none other but BUG BITES! Ouch! I'm in so much pain at the moment and have no idea what bit or stung me.  Please refer to photos below.


Notice in the first photo how red and swollen the bite or sting area looks? It feels very warm and firm to the touch.  That area is much warmer than the rest of my body.  Hmm...I hope it wasn't a bee that stung me?  I received four bites or stings in total - only 3 pictured though.  The fourth is a tiny spot on my right wrist.  So, here's my major Summer pet peeve.  I have a feeling if I were to ask you what's yours, you'd probably say the same. :)

I can't tell you how good it feel to blog after such a long time.  I enjoy sharing tid bits of my life with you, my lovely readers and close friends. 

Cheers! Share/Save/Bookmark
