Bags I have been riding the elevator with lately

Unlike most women who are all about shoes, I am all about handbags/totes. Don't get me wrong, I love shoes (and write about shoes often) but I am more about comfort when it comes to shoes as I walk around the city a LOT, and am always on the go. Pretty stilettos and gorgeous lady-like pumps are just not my lifestyle right now. Although, I am going to be all about ankle boots and boots this fall/winter. In fact, I am hunting for a pair of brown boots as we speak, and will share some of my favorites with you soon. But I digress so back to bags for now.

I wrote about a Chloe Marcie leather tote I have been coveting a few weeks ago. I still can't get over it, and now I am equally craving a Celine black leather tote. These bags are like in my face wherever I look. Seriously. But the reality is that there is room for only two types of bags in my life right now-- camera bags and diaper bags. Sigh. And functionality and convenience take precedence over looks when it comes to these bags. There, I said it. 

So while the 20 somethings in my building (and their moms) prance around in some of the most gorgeous bags, I happily admire their beauty and carry on with my diaper and camera bags, and the baby in tow : )
