Back in the day I used to hoard handbags left and right however within the last couple of years, I’ve become extremely picky about which ones I buy. Today I’m sharing my latest and greatest find. This cognac handbag.
Can you guess what brand this is? It’s Henri Bendel! I’ve been fan of this brand for many years and this modern icon top handle satchel confirms why I love them so much! The size, shape, quality are perfection. The leather is SO buttery soft yet it still has a bit of structure and shape to it which I absolutely love.
The best part? It comes with an adjustable shoulder strap that you can wear on your shoulder or use as a cross body. No need to punch extra holes either! I have it on the last hole and it’s the perfect length for petites. As a new mommy, I always need to be hands free because chasing a two year old is no joke. Plus it also has a top handle so you can carry it in your hands or on your arm.
So many new arrivals to swoon over…like this wicker lunch box needs to be in my life immediately. I rounded up some of my top picks below.

Can we just talk about this fedora hat? I always struggle with finding hats that actually fit my head. I don’t have that small of a head however hats are usually always too big and fit funny on me. This straw fedora fits perfectly and stays put! Say what? I know, crazy right? I love the pale blue color – such a nice change from the typical white or cream I usually sport. The brim isn’t too big or wide and has the right amount of coverage for those days that you don’t feel like doing your hair.
Basically, you need this satchel. It’s a great year round bag that can be worn to work and on the weekends. Love it and would highly recommend! 🙂

Thank you Henri Bendel for sponsoring this post.
I love everything you are showing for the petite girl. However, I would love to see something in a more mature as in 50+. Not that you aren’t mature. Mature in age is what I’m referring to. Please don’t publish my name or this comment.
What a cute tee! I usually wear xs …wonder if I should size up to a s. Reviews say it runs snug
Yes def size up! It runs small! 🙂
Is your bag in Arabian spice color?

You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find
this matter to be actually something which I think I would never understand.
It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I’m looking forward for your next post, I’ll try
to get the hang of it!
When someone writes an article he/she keeps the thought of
a user in his/her brain that how a user can understand
