New Glazed Diaper Bags by Petunia Pickle Bottom
I’ve been a fan of Petunia Pickle Bottom Diaper Bags for a long time. I love the look of their beautiful brocade fabric, but I always had one concern- dry cleaning. I’ve made a mess out of some of my existing fabric purses, and I don’t want a messy-looking diaper bag. Petunia Pickle Bottom is […]

Mary Jane Crocs: Do or Don’t?
Crocs: Alice Mary Jane Call me out of touch, but I must admit I haven’t been digging the whole Crocs fad.
