Hello friends! How was your weekend? We had two days of incredible weather and it felt to good to get some fresh air. It’s starting to feel like Spring around here and the winter coat is already in the box ready to be stowed away for another year. Old man winter, you better be gone for good this time!
Adrian totally surprised me with a super sweet Valentine’s Day gift (he surprised me once first in the morning with one amazing gift and surprised me later in the day with a second hidden gift for me to find — that guy, I tell you! 🙂 Anyways, I’m in love with this red purse that he picked out (I didn’t drop any hints on this one, y’all…I still can’t believe he picked out such a cute bag all on his own!) and wanted it to be the spotlight today. I went with a black and white checkered top and paired it with a pair of jeans and a blazer. I love how the garnet red pops against the darker, almost monochromatic colors and really defines the whole look. Adrian and I did have a funny conversation about how he thought ‘garnet’ was supposed to be green. Good thing his eye for bags is spot on. 😉
Thank you so much for stopping by. I hope your week is off to a great start!

A red bag is such a fitting Valentine's gift! What a thoughtful present 🙂 Looks great with your jeans too!
Away From Blue
I love this outfit from head to toe, Kileen. What a great bag for Valentine's Day. I'm sure Adrian put a lot of thoughts to it when he got this bag.
Thanks Vicky! Yes, Adrian is so super sweet and thoughtful. Couldn't believe it was such a wonderful gift. Hope you had a great weekend, Vicky!
Lovely gifts! Both the heels and bag are amazing, I'm sure all these years he's learned a thing or two cause he did an amazing job picking the red bag, just beautiful. The look is really chic and polished, and the bag completes it to perfection!

Aw how sweet! My husband and I don't celebrate (our bdays are too close to the day), but he surprised me too with a single rose and a really sweet card. I love him. Your husband did a great job with this bag! A great little hint of color!
