Some cute new camera bags for you! It’s no secret that traditionally, a functional but cute camera bag has been hard to find. Until, that is, my rock star friend Maile created Epiphanie Bags, a line of gorgeous camera bags, because the need was there (big time) and she’s a genius. I’ve owned an Epiphanie camera bag for over 5 years and I love everything about it. It’s stylish and utilitarian, and sometimes I use it for a purse without…

How to recycle a thrifted purse this Summer, a new DIY tutorial from Steph, whose last project: how to geometric earrings made my life complete. I’m a firm believer that Memorial Day definitely marks the beginning of Summer, more so than the “official” season change in June. School is getting out, theme parks and pools are opening up for the season, and shorts and sundresses are essential. It’s summer! Let’s make sure our handbag says its so, too. I have…

Makeover a Mom Handbag I’m a mom who needs a makeover for my handbag. My name is Stephanie. I’m the mom who carries everything AND the kitchen sink in her handbag. Don’t you? Do you remember Allison’s long running ‘what’s in your purse‘ series? I loved those posts because I’m always curious how other people, (mom-people specifically) organize their stuff. Seeing what was inside all those pretty purses was fascinating! Once or twice I thought about submitting my own (mom)…

I’m a mom. Not to state the obvious, but there it is. And as a mom I carry around a ridiculous amount of, well, crap in my purse. I’m not sure there’s a euphemism for the stuff I haul around on a daily basis. I’m super OCD (it’s not awesome like you’d think it would be) and my purse stresses me out to no end, all the mom paraphernalia I need just to get out the door. It’s the stuff…

This week’s What’s in Your Purse Series week 87 (too much) is from me. Again. I dumped my purse out all over the kitchen table last week, so I could organize and sift out the miscellany that has gathered over the last two frantic months of travel and end of school nonsense. I knew my purse was feeling extra heavy, but I’m completely embarrassed to show you the amount of crap I’ve been carrying around. It’s ridiculous. I tried to…
