It’s no secret that I love handbags. Big or small, they are all welcome! This isn’t something new, and I have my Mom and Grandma to blame for my addiction to purses (sorry, Mom!)
Have I told you guys the story of that purse? It all started when I was 8…and all I wanted for Christmas was a purse from JC Penny. I can picture it now. Brown, suede leather, with a patchwork design. Classy right? I talked about that purse every day. To my surprise, Christmas morning came and I opened the most beautiful box with (I remember every detail) the most beautiful red bow. As I opened the box, I screamed “That Purse!”. It really was a glorious day for my 8 year old self. I felt so grown up and “cool” to wear a purse like my Mom and Grandma.
That’s a story that my mom loves to tell, but if one thing’s true, it’s that I have a serious love for bags. This Marc Jacobs bag is a little different than my typical bag, but I really needed a big bag with soft leather. The best part about this bag is that it can be worn on my shoulder or as a crossbody. I love it! Personally, I love this gray color all year long, but if you’re wanting something a little more Summery, it comes in more pretty colors too!

PS: Be sure to tune in to my Snapchat (username: theteacherdiva) to see my weekend at the rewardStyle Conference. I am taking off Friday afternoon to head over to The Joule Hotel to meet with some of my favorite brands and see some blogger friends. It should be a fun (and busy) weekend!
