Mama Wants a Brand New Bag
Well, lovelies…This nasty bug still has a firm hold on me. I’ve barely moved off the couch in three days. The dude, in typical toddler fashion, is not taking much pity on his mama. He doesn’t quite understand that I feel like death warmed over. All he knows is that when he rips apart his Thomas the Train table…he expects it to be put back together yesterday. Where’s my nanny when I need her? Oh, yeah. I don’t have one. HAHA!
One good thing has come out of my battle with the flu…I’ve had time to catch up on all your blogs! So, that’s what my days have consisted of as of late…My best attempts at caring for the dude, surfing the ‘net and drinkin’ a whole lotta OJ. Speaking of orange juice…Is anyone else psyched about rockin’ orange this spring? I recently scored a gorgeous orange silk scarf from Meg Cohen and the color really spoke to me. Who am I kidding? I’m a Gator girl. Orange always speaks to me! And I’m thinking that I need a bag in this juicy hue to take me into the warm weather months. What do y’all think of these?

I love those bags – the orange is such a great color for the spring and summer. Need to show the Kate Spade bag to hubby for upcoming birthday!
Hope you get to feeling 100% better soon!
Hang in there. Hope you feel better soon!
I have been majorly lusting over that Kate Spade bag ever since I saw it, I want it so so bad!

Wow, I am loving that RM bag! It would be so perfect cross-body for the UF/GA game in Jax 🙂
I love the Kate Spade one – wow!

I’m sorry you’re feeling icky, Kristin! Those toddlers just don’t get it 😉 I hope you do get one of these gorgeous bags to makeup for the fact that you feel like hell at the moment! My fave is the Kate Spade one!
I like the first one best!
My best friend gave me a bright orange purse for my twenty-first birthday – I get compliments on it everywhere I go! Even from guys! Love these picks.
Sexy, I love orange!
I’m loving the color of these bags! You have some great choices here. I think my favorite is the Rebecca Minkoff bag. Her stuff is so cute!
go for it – loving all of them!!! and girl, im always wanting a brand new bag – so i totally relate. 😉
I hope you feel better soon. The orange bags are cheerful!
My husband has a nasty bug too. I so hope you feel better xxoo
these bags are fabulous…. love the color!
Orange is a shade that I don’t wear enough. I have an orange scarf too. I need to find a way to work it into the old wardrobe. That Rebecca Minkoff bag is fabulous and I love that it can be a purse or a clutch.
Feel better soon!
There is something undeniably fabulous about an orange bag, they have always managed to steal my heart! AND hope you feel better soon. xx veronika
i like the date night one 🙂
id go for the rebecca minkoff!

‘Scuse me. Must leave the office now to go see if my local Kate Spade vendor has that clutch (in another color though!)…
This mama wants a new par of stilettos!
I’m on team Kate Spade, but the top one is edgier.
Feel better soon! Beautiful blog.
I especially love the last one. I think an over the shoulder small bag in a bright color is the perfect accessory.
I LOVE that MAC Clutch! so cute!
That top purse is diviiiiine.
I am a Seminole fan but I still like a little bit of orange;) I am thinking my next bag purchase will be orange!
feel better soon!!
love the second bag, great lines, classic structure. xoxo jcd :: cornflake dreams
Oooo I love the orange color!!! =)

Feel better mama!
I’ve been beyond obsessed with that Kate Spade bag for weeks! Great picks.
Oh, dear – feel better soon! Maybe a new orange bag is just the pick-me-up you need. 🙂
Oh – you’re killing me. I LOOOOVE orange bags. LOVE! I have wanted one for a while and you are just stirring my little pot here 🙂
Get well soon!!!!!
I love the Rebecca bag!! So pretty. I think I might be afraid of Orange, I have similar feelings about yellow but I could probably accessorize with both colors!! I hope you feel better soon, have you tried Emergen-C? drink 1 packet per day, It’s my go to for colds.
That tangerine shade is so beautiful! Kate Spade wins for me in here.
Very cute! Of course being a LSU girl orange isn’t at the top of my list!!! Hope you start feeling better. Surely, it’s almost run its course??
Did you get a new blog layout? It’s all looking very cool today.
Love these bags. I want the orange one- ahahahaha
@Thelma, Thanks Thelma. We haven’t made any changes recently.
: )
I’ve been coveting that Kate Spade as well. The F21 bag is a great find girl! I think I need it!
The Kate Spade one is amazing!!! Love the colour too:)
Kisses, sweetie
Ps: I’m hosting a stunning Ruche GIVEAWAY today! Hope you’ll join in 🙂
I am so sorry to hear that you are still feeling bad. This winter has been terrible!
Cute bags. Love the little Forever 21 one.
You poor girl! I hope you feel better soon. But I do love the bag choices – they are like a little shot of vitamin C. Certainly good for illness!
I love orange purses! I don’t know why I haven’t considered getting one until now.
Hope you feel better soon!
We must be on the same wavelength, because I just blogged about an orange Marc by Marc Jacobs clutch available at Bloomingdales, but omg that F21 bag (almost looks like a Celine purse) is too good to be true! 🙂

LOVE the Minkoff.
Yeah, the only good thing about being home sick is that you have time to catch up on Internet crap.
As much as we love you reading our blogs all day long, I’m sure I echo the sentiments of everyone else when I wish you a speedy health recovery. <3.

This has always been one of my favorite colors. Love the Rebecca Minkoff!
Feel better soon!
The Kate Spade bag reminds me of the bags from the Cambridge Satchel Company.
i adore the kate spade bag…the yellow is cute too!
hope you are feeling better and that nyquil helped! 🙂
Love that Kate Spade one! Hope you feel better soon!!
I looove that orange Rebecca Minkoff one! So pretty. I hope you can shake that bug soon, doll!

Loooove orange. Been told it’s “my color” too! So anytime orange is “in” I’m ready to wear it!
Get rest, drink lots of water, load up on vitamin c… am I missing anything??
that RM bag is pure awesomeness! I think mama definitely needs a new bag to make her feel better! xoxo
I should have known youd pick orange bags 🙂
I looooove that Kate Spade bag, but I would settle for the F21 one. 😉 It’s just as cute!
I’m sorry you are so sick. My bf has the flu right now and I’m terrified of catching it. Sigh. Being sick just SUCKS. I hope you feel better soon, my dear. xoxo
Hope you feel better really soon!
I love the forever 21 orange bag! So lovely.
B xx
i will take one of each please!! esp. the rebecca one!! 🙂
Ohhhh that Rebecca Minkoff is gorge!! Don’t mistake it for a glass of orange juice. hehe
Hope you feel better soon. There are some pretty debilitating flus going around. Argh.
xo,
Carrie
Hope you feel better soon Kristin!! I really love the one from Kate Spade! Drink lots of soup and rest! xoxoxoo
My eyes are on that Kate Spade number!!!
I am so sorry you are not feeling well, thank you though for visiting my blog and leaving a comment 🙂
I tell you I do love the color and the RM bag sings to me although normally I would love Kate Spade better however her bag just reminds me of my old school bag not that I did not like it but rather have something different…my kids are much older but I do have 13 nephews and nieces and my mom was always telling me about my nephew and his Thomas the train table/trains and how my nephew loved it! Hope you get back on your feet again real soon can not miss the lovely weather we are having here in Florida!

Hell yeah! I LOVE orange! I’ll take them all, thank you very much 🙂
And so sorry to hear you have the flu. I had it 2 weeks ago. Was stuck in bed for 5 days straight and I seriously could not leave the bed. J would leave me two glasses of water on my nightstand every day before leaving for work so I didn’t die of thirst. Like I was a dog or something. LOL Couldn’t even imagine having to take care of a child. You poor thing. Sending you get well vibes 🙂 xoxo
first two are my faves. And the color (for all, obviously) is awesome!!!!
I need a new bag as well! AI deserve a little treat. I love the colour of these bags. I actually have an orange one, I need to dig it out now.
I adore the first bag! Nothing says spring like bright orange! I hope you are feeling better!
Love that sassy orange color for summer!
It’s as if you read my mind! I’ve been wanting to add some orange in my closet, and what better way than with a new bag!
I am not sure which one I like better, the Kate Spade or the Rebecca Minkoff.
You poor thing!!! Mama’s never get a day off, do they? 🙁 I hope you feel better soon! You should totally treat yourself to a new bag!
I can almost see myself with that last one. Hope the OJ helps and you’re back on your train table fixin’ feet soon!
Oh no. It sounds like you’ve got what I’ve got. Sadly, I’m still muddling through and it’s been 10 days. The cough really takes hold so do whatever you can to rest for as long as you can. I basically lay around for 5 days and I’m still feeling meh.
The orange bags are GORGEOUS!!! I’m saving up for one particular bag… the Mulberry satchel. One day, hopefully! I hope you feel better soon (:
The Kate Spade is TDF
i love the first one, it’s very florida gator orange! <3
LOVE these orange bags! Perfect for spring/summer and this gorgeous FL weather we’re having 🙂
Love each of these bags! Bright orange is one of my fave colors for spring and I’ve been eyeing that Rebecca Minkoff for so long now!
Huge fan of both the Rebecca Minkoff and the Kate Spade (I was just in the store last week to see, it’s really nice and the leather’s sturdy, the RM leather is more soft and less structured).
Man, sickness sucks. I think EVERYONE I know has been or is currently sick right now. This is the worst year yet! Get well soon mama.
BTW…love the orange. Would be perfect for the workplace here at University of Tennessee 😉
I’m not usually a fan of orange but I love that first bag! It looks really rich – not like a traffic cone. 🙂
Feel better soon – kiddos never understand when you need some shut eye. I’ve been obsessed with an orange bag for a long time – love these picks!
orange is my FAVORITE!!
