I love having every day things that are fun and pretty. Even accessories we use like purses and bags. Pretty things all through our house just makes life happier. If you are going to have a purse or a laptop bag laying around your room every day (and who among us does not have at least one of those!) you may as well have pretty ones!
I love the idea of hanging your bag on a sweet hook by the door for all to see, especially when it is as cute as the ones Elisa Lou Designs makes! These bags can definitely make a statement in our home decor, just as they add a lot to our personal style when we leave the house.
And if you are heading off to a blogging conference, retreat or vacation this summer, eh hem, it might be time to snatch up a snazzy new bag before you go.
I adore my new new bag and laptop case! Just look at how lovely they look strewn about my sofa. They are so cute they don’t look messy. In fact, they are so cute, I might stuff a pillow in the laptop bag and pretend it is a throw pillow cover. Good idea, eh? Using what you have. Yep.
Would you like a new bag too? Well it might be your lucky day, because Elisa has offered to giveaway one of her Bailey Bags! Check out this prize, it is a beauty! I love the stripes on the inside too!

These purses are absolutely adorable! My husband doesn’t understand our NEED to have cute, coordinating purses, so I don’t get to buy them often!

What a beautiful purse. I love the two different fabrics. It would look great hanging from my shoulder or even just a the door of my bedroom. But better on my shoulder.
I love these bags. You are so lucky to be associated with them and thank you for sharing them with us.
