    Tote of the Week: Suede Leather Tote Bag by The White Room via DaWanda

    Via White Room Founded in Berlin in 2006, DaWanda is an online marketplace selling unique and handmade items created by talented designers from across the world. After finding the perfect bag on the site for this week’s tote of the week (hello sunshine yellow!), I had a little too much fun choosing a small handful of my favourite homewares, gifts and accessories from the site. I discovered a notebook full of designer-makers that each deserve a shout-out individually, but for now…

    Tote of the Week: You Are My Dreamboat by Helen Entwisle

    Via Talented Totes I’m feeling a tad giddy today. It’s been a pretty awesome week full of goodness and hatching plans, so awesome in fact I’m going to squeeze it all into one paragraph! The OH has now finished his work gallivanting, and I was rewarded with his ace face and Fortnum and Mason treats (tea, biscuits, champagne truffles and a tote bag – wah?!). Ooh, we ate out at our local pub this week and had the BEST meal.…

    Tote of the Week: Je T’aime Shopper by Atsuyo et Akiko

    Via The Pippa and Ike Show  The first week of April has been rather kind and full of all of the good stuff; space raiders, fresh cold milk, Girls (as in HBO series), conquering a mahoosive to-do list, banana chips, planning trips, dancing in my pj’s to Tom Tom Club, kind and jolly people making me happy, Game of Thrones (new series next week!), ace emails, and a rather spectacular fish finger buttie. Not bad April, not bad. Happy Friday! P.S…

    Tote of the Week: Chat Shopper Bag by Audrey Jeanne

    Via Audrey Jeanne   Well, my day/week/month/year has been made today. Kate Bush has announced a 15 show tour (in London) for later in the year. Oh my. She’s an artist I never thought I’d get to see live and next Friday, when the tickets go on sale, I will have the opportunity of listening to her awesomeness. Be still my beating heart. A weekend of Kate Bush classics me thinks? Happy Friday! ♥ P.S Don’t forget to enter the…

    Tote of the Week: Make Life Wonderful by West Elm

    Market Tote Bag by West Elm   I’m rather excited about this weekend. You see, I’m the type that likes to celebrate the small things as well as the big occasions. So when the 2nd March comes around to play, I go all kinds of crazy. ‘Tis my birthday you see; cake, gifts and cards – oh my! We’re off to York for fun and frolocks. There will be shopping, camera snapping, drinking cocktails and a little bit of culture. I…

    Tote of the Week: Less Popular Nail Varnishes by Gemma Correll

    Via Gemma Correll  Hello there, how’s Friday (and February) treating you? All jazzed up to hit the town or curled up on the couch ready to put the week to rest? We’ve had a charming week, the highlight being a mid-week city break in Leeds. It was a luxury to flee from the Valley, if only for a day or so. As much I love Hebden Bridge, it can feel a tad small sometimes (and a little too much gossip…

    Tote of the week: Amour éternel by Alejandro Giraldo via Society 6

    Via Society 6 Well isn’t this a fine tote bag? It has me dreaming of the sea, and nights spent putting the world to rights over a bottle of port whilst the sea crashes in. Which is exactly what we’ll be doing in a few weeks when we head off for our mini New Years break (and anniversary!) in Bamburgh, Northumberland. Hurrah for castles, the ocean and roaring log fires! Happy Friday! ♥ P.S On the hunt for a new…

    Tote of the Week: Gruppen Tote by Uniqlo

    Oh my, what a week it has been. It’s been mainly made up of writing my socks off, doing research for a magazine feature, seeing family, getting my hair chopped, watching the National Theatre recording of Frankenstein at our local cinema (amazing!), receiving a new phone to replace my broken one from a lovely friend and changing the displays in Heart Gallery for the new Christmas exhibition. And if all of that wasn’t good enough, we finished the week celebrating…

    Tote of the Week: Deer Tote Bag by Zoé De Las Cases

    Deer Tote Bag by Zoé De Las Cases It’s only the start of the blummin’ weekend?! Alas, I don’t think it is going to be tote bag weather, there’s a fiery storm brewing as we speak. As for the rest of the weekend, I’ve got the Morrissey autobiography to read, Christmas present planning to do, a little socialising and hopefully I will partake in a lot of sleep. Yes, indeed. What do you have planned? Happy Weekend! ♥

    Tote of the Week: Einstein Logic and Imagination by Newton and the Apple

    It’s Friday folks, how did that happen? HOW? This weekend will be full of tasty breakfasts, board games, music, slow cooked meals and working at the gallery. Oh and sleep, lots of that. I’m also looking forward to getting my haircut on Monday which is a first (I don’t like the experience until I walk out the door!). However, my mane is mainly frizz at the moment. Le sigh. Anyhoo, I digress. What do you think of this lovely tote…
