I got this Ralph Lauren hobo bag in New York last weekend. I was originally planning to give it to someone else as a Christmas gift – I wasn’t sure who, exactly – but, in an unsurprising twist, decided to keep it for myself. It’s so soft and pretty, and easy to carry. Good pockets, too. But really, the pretty is the important part. At first, I was a little “Eh” about it, but now I’m quite “Oh!” about it. This was a steal at $39.99.
I'm Jackie, 29, an American in London: Lover of pretty things, cute things, and good bargains. Here, I catalogue my finds, all the art I covet, and the one trillion crafts I wish I could make.





I am so glad you got it and even more so that you like it so much. When I saw it I was convinced it was more ‘you’ than anything else we have seen that day.
Yes, you light the path towards even more glorious acquisitions, Adriana! What would I – or MasterCard – do without you?
