As featured in Cookie Magazine. This bag is even more stunning in person, with a chain that can be worn as shoulder strap or tucked inside the bag to wear as a clutch! Love It!

Here Comes 2009!

Every year, right before the New Year, I try to come up with a guiding "Theme" for the upcoming year. Some past themes include "Less is More", and "Don't Dream It. Be It.". Having a theme for the year is better than making a resolution because it is a guiding principle, not a goal that can be either achieved or broken.

For 2009 I have decided to capitalize on the nation's theme (aka Obama's catch-phrase) and make my theme "Change You Can Believe In". I can apply this theme to all aspects of life to which I want to take a new direction and make a change.

What will your Theme for 2009 be? (Post your responses in the comments section)
