If you were to ask me, “What is your favorite designer label?” I would proclaim, in a sing-songy voice, “Chanel!” In a previous post, I mentioned that I owned a couple of Chanel bags and a wallet. I rarely use them simply because I wouldn’t be able to stand myself if I brought on early “wear and tear” to them. So they sit bagged and boxed up in my closet.

I love red nail polish, but I’ve been stepping out of my comfort zone and experimenting with some other colors.

It’s in the Bag
