The High & The Low

In the last few weeks, I have made two purchases that have truly made me happy.  So happy, in fact, that I feel the need to spread the happiness on this blog.  Now, I realize that these are material objects, but it's true.  I have been happier since I bought them.  Please don't judge.

The high priced item: 

Kate Spade "Jossline" bag in black, purchased at Nordstrom.  Buttery black leather, gold zippers, and a cute little shape that can only be described as "fat."  I love this little guy.  Plus, the interior is striped in pink, green, and white.  Very cute.




The low priced item:


Mossimo Jeggings from Target. I gave in and jumped on the "jeggings" bandwagon (but, with a low price tag). I couldn't help myself-- they're stretch pants, people! Made with stretch denim to look like jeans! Complete with back pockets!  I think that I will be living in these throughout the fall/winter. So, I bought two pairs.

Happy Monday!

UPDATE:
I now own about 5 pairs: jet black, jet black, faded black, blue with yellow stitching,
and dark blue with blue stitching.  :)

    are the jeggings as comfy as leggings? I am such a leggings addict.

    Paula, yes they are! I'm a leggings girl too, but these are comfy (and thicker for those cold winter days). Perfect with boots and a big sweater.

    And, they are cheapo too. :)

    I wasn't so sure that I could jump on the jeggings bandwagon. But if I could do it on the cheap at Target then why not! Thanks for the tip!

    I've been debating the Mossimo jeggings. Now I think I need them!

    You will have that black bag for a million years! You can't go wrong. The jeggings will be cute for fall with boots. Do you love that look? I live in jeans and boots in fall...I'll check them out at our local "targeh"

    (oh..just see you just answered my boots question)

    great finds. love all things kate! but i am all over those jeggings--confused why people would pay over $100 for basically a legging.
