Would you believe that I've been sitting on these pics for months?  Of course you would.  Because I'm wearing long sleeves in all of them, and these days, that'd make me sweat.  But that's okay; I'd rather have a backlog of pics instead of not enough.  Just like bags.  And shoes.  And jewelry.  

Because to collect is to curate, and to curate is to love.

Or some such other sentiment that should be scrawled across a blank book or pillow.

The point is, collecting makes me happy.  It's an art unto itself, not to mention something to look forward to.  I hope to share it with Charlotte someday, the two of us treasure hunting just like my mom and I do.

Even if it turns out that she's on the prowl for Pyrex instead of purses.

Oh, I love that part about Pyrex! I will confess I am always looking for a good container..most time to put something I've collected instead of food..so the collection does have it's levels. I just can't seem to pass up a Bento box at 5 Below...or a snackbox with little compartments (I'm thinking for beads and buttons!)..Such a great topic to post about❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ & such inspiring items you have! Love the florals! Awesome sweatshirt & leggings..and the bags..and the shoes! OH MY! πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸŒΈπŸŒΈπŸŒΈπŸŒΈπŸŒΈπŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’• I hope you girls have a fabulous Mother's Day weekend! & have something special to add to your collection!

That banana purse!! It's so adorable and looks great with your coral floral dress! Your Kohl's finds are so cool, and those fruit hair clips are darling! Lastly, the muted blue dress paired with the highlighter yellow accessories and burgundy bag is SUCH a neat look! I'm always amazed at the color palettes you put together. I'm certain you and Charlotte will be a powerful treasure hunting team in the future! πŸŒπŸ’πŸ‰πŸ’›
