Barney’s Co-Op did another round of markdowns overnight and the prices on some of my favorite Jas MB bags are INSANE. The Melissa shoulder bag is my favorite, and it’s marked down to $179:
It is SO CUTE on, and while a bit small for me, it is a good size for everyday if you don’t have to carry a lot. Of course, I also love the teeny leopard print wings bag, and this larger version of the Melissa bag – and they’re all under $200. Amazing prices for amazing bags. The quality of Jas MB bags is second-to-none, they’re all made in the UK and are just as practical as they are beautiful.
THIS is such a great deal. I have two Jas MB “wings traveler” bags and I can’t say enough great things about them. All of Jas MB bags are handmade in England and incredibly practical. This one may look a little funny, but it’s so comfortable to carry (I used one of mine in Italy last week) and I’m a huge fan of the multiple removable shoulder straps.
I’ve been obsessed with this Jas M.B. bag since I saw it at Barney’s Co-Op a few months ago. It’s not very practical for my daily lifestyle, but would be just the thing to liven up my neutral traveling outfits. And it’s a great size for just a wallet & camera…(I carried the larger version in Rome all week).

After I posted about the Anthropologie “explorations” skirt being on sale for $49 last week, my husband offered to buy it for me. Imagine my surprise 
and delight! So, the thank you is for him.
I knew I would love this skirt – it drapes beautifully, and I love the pattern/color; it ends up looking more gray, but with texture. I ended up with a size small, mostly because my store just had a small and a large, and the large was way too big. The small fits fine – I think. I do like the skirt more with a nicer blouse, like my Equipment silk blouse, but it’s going to be in the triple digits again today, and I just can’t do it. It also looks great with my cropped red blazer and a white tank top; I think this will be an extremely versatile skirt for me.
And as if we didn’t already have to worry about matching, Sharon and I will have to start co-ordinating outfits so we’re not wearing the exact same piece
