Candy Colors

Wow, as I am about to write a post about the contents of my purse it just occurred to me that really, I should get a life.  Oh, dear.  I can see it now...some day when we have children how they will roll their eyes and frown when their mother takes to doing things like showing the world her purse contents.
But, my little purse contents bring me so much happiness!  Silly I know but really it is true!  The other day a friend (who was carrying a black purse with all black contents while dressed all in black making me feel like I had dressed up like an Easter Egg or perhaps a cupcake or no, a pinata!) commented that my purse looks like a candy store!  "Why thank you!"  I replied! 

Let's see...we have my pleather (yep!  I proudly said pleather!  I don't do leather...the whole dead animal thing just creeps me out!) aqua organizer, which is disorganized I might add. 
My pink pleather wallet with bright orange lining purchased by DH in New York. 
A tissue cozy made by yours truly. 
A trusty pony tie also made by yours truly. 
My Cath Kidston pink ticking makeup bag, much loved and much used!
A petite hairbrush purchased for its cute color and rarely used although admittedly it should be! 
My lip balm shaped like a strawberry cupcake originally purchased for my 6 year old niece but then I couldn't bear to give it away.  (she'll never know! ;)
Vintage cigarette case used as a business card holder.
My pretty daily journal that I don't write in daily as intended...but I am trying! 
Little pad of paper again purchased primarily for cuteness, hey it is yellow gingham, how could I not buy it! 
Stinky lotion given to me by Santa...at least it is a pretty color. 
Pewter heart key chain that I bought for myself to celebrate passing my driving test when I was 16. 
And last but not least my keychain with my gym pass which I am determined to use with more frequency, a Tiffany's heart (given to me by a creepy guy in college but hey...it is a nice keychain so what the heck!)  And a little Eiffel Tower keychain ironically purchased in New York because I couldn't find one in Paris. 
Phew!  Well wasn't that exciting! 
I couldn't resist girls!  Thanks for bearing with me!

I love that Cath Kidson bag--most inspiring for my shopping list.

And I love what you did with your phone--the little flower heart around it. Just darling!

Have a good and hopefully relaxing weekend!

I truly think the contents of one's purse speaks volumes about the person. And you, Miss Cece, are a person that everyone should have as a friend. And you never question what a pocketbook tells.

what a nice clean purse. Mine is FULL of paper and, as my mom would say, schnibblies. Well, while I'm couch-bound, I should probably clean the darned thing out.

Very cute CeCe, I'm that boring person with the black purse,BUT I do have this one purse that I like to use in the summer months that I bought in France. The brand is Lancel... I so wish they sold that line here in the U.S. Anyway, this one is canvas, and the print is of the streets of Paris in reds and blacks. It was loosely designed around the movie "Amilie."
I wish I could break free from the black sometimes, your purse contents are so cheery and fresh!!

I usually carry a black purse but the contents are pretty colorful, too...an aqua eye case, and a pink one, too...pretty floral notebook, plastic wallet with red cherries, vintagey looking oil cloth change purse...I have cuteness factor going on as well...a green troll on my key chain. I laughed at the lip gloss remark 'cuz I have done that many times...too cute to give so I'll just keep it. lol.

So, did you get any goodies at the Alameda Flea Market?

Oh, my purse/diaper bag is such an awefull embarrassing mess. YOu make me want to give it a makeover!

That's not what the inside of my purse looks like... and I hope that doesn't say volumes about me! I think the inside of my house looks much better than the inside of my little brown purse. I just know you'd like my daughter's room and its contents, though! Pop over to my blog and take a look--if you have time. Take care.
