…and when dear Edward isn’t around I’ll settle for @kohls_official’s Candie’s Platform High heels. Not only are they a great pick-me-up, but they’re also very comfortable! I’ve worn these grocery shopping at Walmart and walks around Target and I wasn’t looking for some $5 flip flops to put on. You know what I’m talking about.

I love my new Cardigan!
Sunday, March 20, 2011
And so does everyone else. It’s such a great Spring color and everyone is so sick of this cold weather I can understand how a simple cardigan could brighten up someone’s day. I must admit, it did put a bounce in my step! And the two days I wore it were a bit chilly, but it did keep me warm while I was outside. The big test was whether it would keep me warm at the office and I’m happy to report it did! Here’s how I wore it for the first time.
Trench: Daisy Fuentes for Kohl’s
Purse: Kathy Van Zeeland
Sunglasses: Oakley Dangerous Breast Cancer Awareness Edition
Cardigan: At Target by Merona

Hello Mr. Postman
Saturday, March 19, 2011
The Postman has arrived at Dillard’s! I must admit looking at this bag online didn’t make my heart skip a beat, but once I had my hands on it, it knocked the Word Up satchel right off it’s pedestal! The Mr. Postman satchel actually has a back pocket that opens unlike the Word Up that only appears to have pockets on the outside. It comes in two different colors a light pink/rose color and a black/newspaper print shade. I prefer the light pink. Here’s a look at the two colors side by side.
I love the lock accent on the front, which is not an additional pocket, from what I could tell anyway. And of course it has the detachable strap so that you can carry it as a cross-body, which I love. If I know I’m going shopping I definitely carry a purse I can wear cross-body, which is why I own two of Kathy’s Croco Club Cross-body bags.
You would be amazed at what you can stuff in there! I originally bought the yellow at Dillard’s and when I spotted the other one at Ross I had to snap it up for a Fall bag last year.
So there’s a preview of the Mr. Postman and if you don’t have a Dillard’s in your town it looks like the only place to order the Mr. Postman is at QVC. Except it looks like QVC may be out of the pink color and only has the black and white in stock. Also if you look at the Mr. Postman QVC is calling “multi” it looks like it has a much darker tint to it than what I spotted at Dillard’s and the smell that was mentioned in the reviews I didn’t notice at the ones in Dillard’s. So which is your fave of Kathy’s newest bags?
SweetpeaWoo hoo! Thank you @afashionfix!

A few weeks ago I entered a giveaway over at A Fashion Fixation. Imagine my surprise when I won! I couldn't wait to get my new cardigan!! Well it arrived today and I love it! It's a perfect color for Spring and its a 3/4 length sleeve so it should keep you warm in the office but is still lightweight enough to be worn outdoors. I'm actually considering wearing it tomorrow because I can't wait to wear it. Lol If I do I will write up another post and let you know how it held up during the day.
Thanks again for the giveaway Ashley!

@Kathy_VZ’s new Word Up bags
Sunday, February 27, 2011
I spotted these fabulous bags as I was walking through Dillard’s on Saturday and I’m in love with the print on the bag! I thought my fave would be the bigger satchel bag since, well, it’s bigger and would hold more, but when I compared it to the (just a bit) smaller x-body they both seem to have the same amount of room on the inside. The satchel looks like it has two flaps on the front and back, but they seem to be just for looks, when I got home I looked on the Dillard’s website and in the description it did say that there were two magnetic flaps. But unless the flaps were sewn shut for shipping purposes I didn’t see that the satchel at the store had magnetic pockets on the outside and I couldn’t find a sales person to ask.
The Word Up X-Body satchel in white is definitely my favorite. I didn’t get a chance to try it on with the longer strap since the strap was still wrapped (which tells me that Dillard’s must’ve just gotten these bags in), but there’s definitely enough room on the inside for what I need to carry plus there’s an outside pocket on the front/back (depending on which why you carry it) that fits my mobile phone (EVO) perfectly and two additional pockets on either side. Now I’m going to have to decide whether I should get the x-body satchel or wait and get the Kindle I’ve been saving up for, which by the way the Kindle would fit in the smaller x-body. Why did I have to go into Dillard’s?!?
If you don’t have a Dillard’s in your town, Amazon has the the x-body in stock but they’re very limited and if the satchel or x-body aren’t for you the shopper is available at QVC and I recommend going there because it’ll save you about $20.
