The Practical Tote

I wanted to make a tote that I could use everywhere & held up to all of life's shenanigans. So I'm very excited to introduce the Practical Tote. It's easy, roomy & reversible and has pocket perks! Hope you all enjoy it as much as I do.

Mom's New Bag is Here

One of the latest & greatest new additions to the texstyle family :}. I really love this cornflower print. Check out what else is new at texstylebags.com!

Inscrutable Memphis

Memphis has the most inconsistent weather. One day it's 55º and the next you have 5 inches of snow... which is then completely melted by the next day because it's so warm. Liam & I took advantage of the little bit-o-snow we got while it lasted and made ourselves a little friend.

Every now & then I come across an app that I just fall in love with. ShopShop is one of those apps. I really feel like I'm able to stay on top of things with this app. Plus it tames makes my listing addiction. I can make multiple color-coded lists, cross off, shake & boo ya! I'm makin' headway. Last week I crossed everything off one of my lists! It's one of those things you rarely see happen and then it happened to me, so I'm happy now and ready to begin this next week with a clean slate. I'm taking tomorrow off to spend the day with much awaited company in our 60º winter weather, but don't forget to join the mailing list for your chance to win a free texstyle bag! Enjoy your sun & snow :}

Syncing My Life

The baby's asleep and I'm clicking away, typing frantically to make myself feel as though I'm making good progress with the online portion of my to-do list. This week I set out to get ultra-organized and I think I'm doing an ok job so far. I made some updates to my site, finished hanging up photos in our still somewhat new Memphis home, made about ten lists & most importantly, synced all of my social networking sites! I'm really excited about the last one. Did I mention how awesome TweetDeck is? TweetDeck is pretty awesome. It's so nice to be able to combine & streamline my Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn accounts. I may be a little behind, but hey–better late than never, right? Plus, it ain't easy gettin' stuff done with a 1-year old running amok. In other more recent news, I'm doing a handbag giveaway for the month of February for all who sign up for updates. The winner will be chosen at random and gets a free bag (pics to come)!
