What’s Your Summer Handbag Personality?

A woman’s handbag says a lot about her personality. The style, color and even the designer are a reflection of her fashion sense and her lifestyle.

Morning Motivation: Nobody Falls Halfway

I consider myself somewhat of a book list rebel. Unless it’s Tolstoy or Zadie, I will purposely go out my way to be sure I find a book off the beaten path. I don’t know what it is; maybe it’s my own cynicism that books are experiences or that in my head I picture millions…
