Recessionista: Metal Guru

Let the sunshine in!

I am so sick of my down coat, tights, scarf and boots. I need something to get me motivated -- and voila! Of course Target came to the rescue. I actually smiled when I saw this Butterfly Stud handbag. I like!

(Unfortunately, so does everyone else. The brown bag by Mossimo is currently unavailable, but sign up to be notified when the bags are back in stock.)

The bag reminds me of something Nicole Richie would wear, and I assume that if Gucci and Miu Miu -- two Italian designers -- had a baby bag, this would be it. Of course, it is something inspired by the hippie dippie sixties (Richie's fave decade), but it has a modern edge. I love the color and the studding -- rock 'n' roll but not as mad aggressive as most. I also love the extra fringe pull on the zipper.
