…and right now, these are my favorites…
frye purse that santa surprised me with for christmas. santa should not have done that! but i love it so much. and i’d so much rather have one good leather purse [or three] for the entire rest of my life than 250 target purses that will inevitably just fall apart.
hermes 3000 mint green swiss typewriter from the late ’60s that i just found yesterday at an antique shop. i saw her and i just had to have her! i’ve wanted one like her for so long. so, i asked how much she was and they were all “$50” and i was like “$35?” and then they said “$40?” and i was like “sure.” and then it was determined that sarah has my hermes’s baby and i have the mom. isn’t that sweet? a family!
my frye melissa birthday boots. i know. i’ve mentioned them like, twice already but i’m still not over them because they just keep getting better now that they’re all broken in and comfy. i put them on and they hug my feet and we live happily ever after. also, bootsies and pursey are my first ever frye love affairs and now i am totally sold. there’s nothing like good leather stuff. really. nothing. [something that every horse girl knows.]
minnie would like to add that her favorite material item is currently her ropey. she loves her ropey more than she loves any of her other toys, even the ball. somehow this ropey has had an unusually long lifespan, so she is very bonded to it and is always looking for a ropey play partner.
so, i know that life isn’t about material items. i feel like i have a pretty good grasp on that, actually, and i’m good with it. because remember, you can’t take ’em with you when you go… but also, i figure we should probably enjoy them a lot as long as we’re all here. and oh, iiii do.

I love the old school typewriter! Last time we were in an antique shop…my husband bought an accordion – it's cool but way too loud! As always, Miss Wiggle Bottoms is adorable!

I love your boots and purse! I got some Corral cowboy boots for Christmas and it's safe to say I'm in love! I wear them all the time! 🙂

Love that typewriter. The colors are perfect on it, too. Ah! And I love those boots! I have been DYING for a pair of Frye Campus 14L boots for forever!! I can't bring myself to pay a pretty penny for them though. Ehh maybe one day! I totally agree about having 1 (or 3) nice purses over a ton of fallen apart scraggly Target purses. Minnie is so cute btw!

I think I need a Minnie dog in my life. Her & Moses would be the fluffiest babies EVER.
Love, Leigh

love love love those boots, and I TOTALLY agree on the purse thing. I'm not a huge handbag person, I only have one great Cole Haan purse that I love and (I think) goes with everything. I might invest in another bag soon as I would like a LITTLE variety, but for the most part – I'm good!
P.S. Minnie and her ropey are too cute! Henry is OBSESSED with these bone chew toys we get back home (they're literally twice as expensive here). He gets SO excited when we get home and after her licks us and jumps right over to us he excitedly pounces over to his bone and starts chewing like crazy. he's the cutest. (can you tell I'm over-the-top obsessed with him?!)
