My dressing style has been simple lately, I am deep in the midst of packing and purging my wardrobe. I dearly hate to part with items, especially clothes, but there comes a time when one must attempt to travel light.
For my remix posts the goal is usually to show how I have styled one item in different ways, however sometimes the things you repeat the most are accessories. One of my favorite items on constant repeat is this Ruche bag (which apparently also comes in black...hm...). I can't even tell you the number of times I have had to defend this bag from thievery too--not the mean street sort of criminal, but more the family/friend desiring to "borrow" type of crime.

I ADORE that bag - love the slouchyness and LOVE that taupe colour. Grey/brown, it's so versatile, muted and...soothing!
I've noticed you where a lot of skirts and dresses like myself. I haven't worn pants since January 11th! Maybe I should post about it lol. I feel free and feminine in dresses and skirts. Pants are too constricting.
I often find it hard to travel lightly. I always want to sneak a few extra things into my bag :)
The last time I purged my wardrobe I got rid of a few vintage shirts I now wish I had kept! Ugh.
i love you stripey shirt dress! its so cute. and your pictures obviously are always awesome (the one on the grass!)
id totally 'borrow' that bag too. haha
Hehe it's a great bag--I don't blame them for trying!
How did I not know about Ruche before? It's pricing is brilliant and definitely in the type of style I need to incorporate into my wardrobe!
And yes, that bag is brilliant as well, darlin!
It certainly is a theft-worthy bag!
I love the lurex leggings with the striped shoes, very cute =]
loove that slouchy bag - grey is SO underrated

Love to see different ways of wearing an item and give to it some perspective. Great post.
I always drool when I see you carry that bag, it's gorgeous ;) and I love your 'simple 'outfit with the AA leggings & stripey shoes...
I do find a little sense of satisfaction when purging the wardrobe, but there are many items I simply cannot part with, so it keeps distilling down (well, not so down...as I keep adding to it).

That bag is lovely, can't believe it's from h&m, it looks so much more expensive.
that bag is fab! i love how it complements each outfits so well!
I love the striped mini-dress - tres french! And I kind of love the background, too :-)
i so agree with you about need to travel light sometimes. it's hard for me to part with my clothes but sometimes a gal just has to do it.

You wear those leggings so well - effortless cool. Your Ruche bag is so lush, I love the gold detailing.

I have to say I use the same bag 99.9% of the time so It would definitely be a repeat offender in my outfit stakes xx those shoes are adorable :)
I love that striped dress!! Looks adorable on you.
I love your remix posts! So fun! And that bag is wonderfully cute!
awesome shoes and that bag is truly amazing...black would be nice too!
Good luck with packing and purging! That's so hard. I might want to purge my wardrobe a little sometime soon--I can't believe how much I've accumulated.
I love that bag!
What an amazing bag!!!!!! The colour is one of my favourites, however I have never been able own one because they are rare find.
So hang on to it and forget the black one as that colour is soooo much more stylish!
Gorgeous photos. I love the inky blue hues of your outfit and the way they contrast with your hair ( which is stunning) and nail colour.
Sweet shoes too! xx
i love your stripes! esp the shoes! and the leggings are cute and looks comfy! =)
It's nice to see you're not bored of lamé leggings! they're awesome, they should stay in forever I think :)
I'm really loving the remix posts idea, very original.
Your comment on traveling lightly reminded me of Shopaholic (the novel). Aha, she didn't want to travel lightly or burden her boyfriend so she decided to express mail loads of her clothes to their hotel. Very cunning.
I love that striped dress on you! And the bag is wonderful! :)
GOSH I DONT BLAME THOSE TRYING TO 'BORROW' ;O) THE BAG,,ITS DELISH!!!! Love the leather and all the detail to it.
big kiss,

Those shoes are wonderful and so remind me of spring. I love that bag, it's so great to see it in all of its lives!
I've always loved how you wear those striped shoes, they're such an interesting graphic!
Your remix posts might be my favorite. I really love seeing bloggers wearing certain items often, it makes it more real somehow!
the first outfit is cool and i love you ruche bag! no wonder people try to "steal" it! :)
wow that bag is rather versitale, you wear everything well though :) i like you am not really a hoarder either and need to do occasional wardrobe purges too
I, too, am packing and moving and silently cursing the amount of clothes I'm trying to fit into two 50 pound suitcases.
Good luck!
That bag is perfect - just what you need! x
Love the bag! I totally understand that your friends want to "borrow" it!
I adore the green and blue combo, and those shoes are lovely dear. And I can totally understand people wanting your bag, it looks fantastic!
these are great. you reminded me that I have those shoes and must dig them out once the weather gets warmer : )
