With the official arrival of Fall, one of the things I always look forward to is changing out my handbag.  I think it was a recent article I read about Coach re-introducing their tried and true classics that has left me lusting after a traditional leather handbag.   I must admit, over the years, I have been a bit impetuous and without much thought given away or donated some classic handbags that have left me now wishing I hadn't.

It's official! The cozy season is here...   There is so much to love about FALL!   I never think I'll be ready but somehow I always am.   College Football & Tailgate Parties   Pumpkin Spice Lattes   Brisk Air   Crunchy Leaves   Longer Evenings Crisp Apples   Plaid Blankets & Warm Throws   Woolen Scarves   Comfort Food   Sweaters & Boots   Pennant Races,  especially when your team is a contender! I just love a change of seasons, don't you?   Welcome Fall!
