Inspiration Monday / Pink Tote








My godmother and aunt gave me the coolest tote bag ever. Folded and zipped up, it looks like this incredibly chic clutch. Unzip and unfold to reveal a roomy tote with bonus large outer pocket. Perfect for carrying one's Reese Witherspoon inspired orange cardigan, sunglasses, camera, book, wallet, lunch, phone, leggings, beverage, small pet, groceries, etc!

Daily Details:
- weather: sunny and perfect
- orange cardigan, cost $60 divided by the 6 times I've worn it = $10 cost per wear
- dress, approximate current cost per wear $20
- sandals, accpw $8
- tote bag, gifted! Thanks again, Ninang Trina and Tita Carmen!
- Thank you, Two Birds, for hosting a fun Inspiration Monday!

  10. What a cool tote! That is a neat concept, sometimes you need something small and sometimes you need something larger. I love your dress too, it's a lovely shape and looks so nice with the orange cardigan!

  11. That is a perfect fitting dress with a great set of colors on top. I live in Seattle too and we did have a wonderfully sunny day! Unfortunately when I decided to go to the University Village my truck broke down in the garage so I spent most of the day waiting on a tow truck, ending with a 200.00 tow bill! Yikes!
