Spring Into: A New Leaf

Keeping with the theme of Spring, I found this great place to shoot and fell in love with this little green vine growing on the side of the house and working its way indoors.  This is the definition of spring to me.  It creeps in slowly with its fresh green newness and starts to take over the entire world with lushness as well as rich colors, scents and scenery.

Spring Into: Hot Music

Blondfire - Walking With Giants

This Monday, like always, is all about the music but with a small twist.  Yesterday I explained I will be doing a series of posts to celebrate Spring, so I decided to allow Music Monday to be reflective of the spring vibe.  I chose this song, 'Walking With Giants,' by Blondfire for it's soft, poppy, melodic sound; not to mention, the colors and whimsy of this video are helping me stave off those winter blues.  This is a song I actually stumbled across while listening to Blondfire's hit 'Where The Kids Are' which I have had on repeat for several weeks now.  Since finding this gem I have been inspired to dump (carefully put away in a desktop file) my go-to playlist.  Spring cleaning perhaps?  I am excited for all the new music patiently waiting behind the tulips to be discovered and will be sharing my finds with you soon!

Love, APinhead

Come Clean: 5 White Bags For Spring

 

Happy March!  Even though temperatures are still chilly outside, inside my spring cleaning is in full effect.  Any excuse to make room to buy new clothes and handbags, right?  To me there is nothing that embraces spring more than a clean white leather handbag.  I enjoy the contrast of stark white with any color saturated spring look, it looks updated, interesting and classy.  Worried about spills or spots?  With minimal care a white bag can look pristine for many seasons, so don't be scared to take the plunge into white.  In fact, most scuffs and marks can be easily removed with a baby wipe or leather cleaner (always check the care information prior to any major handbag rehabs).  And of course take precautionary measures and hold that glass of red wine in the other hand.   If you haven't already found the perfect white bag for your closet or are on the market for a new one I have chosen 5 blindingly white bags that top my list for the upcoming months.

Do you have a favorite from above, or another white bag you've been coveting?  I'd love to hear from you!
