When I grow up, I want to look like Mrs. Frederick.

Think Pink

A favourite clip via Filip Motwary.

For whatever reason, suprisingly few people I know, are familiar with this scene. And I work in retail!

I love it ... not because I work in retail but for many reasons I cannot nail down instantaneously although Kay Thompson has a lot to do with it.
This feels like a candidate post for an update!

Duffels and Ditty Bags

These have a lovely, practical shape. I can see them working as a toy bin, a tool box, a knitting bag ...
They come in small and large sizes and in one or two colours.

Duffels do not usually appeal to me but the colours of this one are so saturated and beautiful.

Bag Lady

Duck Tote by Baggu

"Carry in your hand, on your shoulder or across your chest. Brings home everything from a laptop to groceries.
16" high / 10" wide / 5.5" deep. 40" adjustable shoulder strap. Snap Closure. Interior pocket.
16oz recycled cotton canvas."

History

UPDATE: Just like the rest of the Baggu family, these are fantastic! They hold so much and are very comfortable to carry, even when overloaded. Mine can hold a laptop, a full set of construction drawings, knitting/crochet project, camera, cardigan, wallet, cosmetics bag, baby bottle, and technology bag (i.e., iPod and mobile). I might get another for gym stuff!

If the garden is a huge success ...
If the rain is worse than ever this year ...
If I live in the country again ...
If I win the lottery ...
(The queen wears them apparently. The price is an indicator.)

I think I could sew this although the curves are a bit daunting. But what a great excuse for a fabuluxe fabric purchase!
