{modeling Gussy Sews bags + a giveaway}

February 11, 2011 ยท
Filed Under: giveaway, Gussy

This giveaway is now closed.

i’m excited — it’s *almost* the weekend!
yesterday i took some product photos so you can see the way my bags hang ~
tote bags | laptop bags | *new* market totes

each bag is totally different from the next:
the totes are my largest bag —
they can hold so much {3.5″ wide bottom} and are extra comfy on your shoulder.

the laptop bags are a skinny version of the tote —
they’ll easily hold your computer & cord {1″ wide bottom}, plus a notebook, wallet, etc.

and my *new* market totes —
a long/skinny version of the laptop bag {1″ wide bottom}.

{aren’t they cute?!}
*i’m 5’4″, just to give you an idea on where your bag will hit when it is on your shoulder
*product measurements // pocket details // fabric options available on the shop website.

let’s celebrate T O D A Y

with the chance to win one of 2- $50 gift certificates to my shop!
leave a comment sharing where you would travel to if you could get away for a weekend.

giveaway is open until Sunday {2/13} evening.

    If I could get away for the weekend, I would go to Arizona or someplace warmer than Iowa. I really love Iowa, but it’s been really cold here lately and we’re ready for spring!! Much like everyone else, huh? Of course, I would need a tote to take everything with me for the weekend!

    I would say some far off destination, but let’s be real, I would never go on a 14 hour flight with a toddler. Plus, we just moved to San Diego about a month ago! Coming from a small town to GA to a place like this is quite the vaca if I do say so myself. :)

    I would love a weekend away with my husband without our kids (ages 6,4 and 1) – I love them to pieces but my husband and I are so busy during the week we can hardly have a conversation. This could be anywhere – even in our hometown – just as long as it was just the two of us!

    February 11, 2011 at 6:02 am

    Ah, my love and I are heading to Hawaii in just over a month, so I cannot complain…..but I sure would love a weekend trip with my mama to the cabins in Arkansas. It is so peaceful there and we have so many good memories there. She and I both need a girls weekend away together!

  42. Becca says

    February 11, 2011 at 6:09 am

    Oh man, I would definitely go somewhere really warm where I had absolutely nothing to do but lie around by the pool or beach and read lots of good books. Sigh.

  43. Leanne says

    February 11, 2011 at 6:10 am

    Oh where I would go . . . well my 10 year wedding anniversary is right around the corner so at this point I would go anywhere. However we have a weekend planned to head to FL. We are going to see Cirque and have dinner at Fultons. Very excited, and your bags would be the perfect accessory.

  57. Amara says

    OMG what an AMAZING giveaway! Thanks so much for the opportunity! hhmmm…if I could go anywhere for a weekend getaway, I would go to Montana in the mountians somewhere. My husband and I fell in love with MT when we went there on our honeymoon!! LOVE LOVE LOVE!

    Happy Weekend!

  63. Katy says

    February 11, 2011 at 6:32 am

    It’s to wintery right now, but I’d LOVE to go to Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming if it was summer. If I was going in this cold, though, I’d leave my city and go snuggle in a cabin in VT somewhere and read and drink cocoa all weekend!

  64. Becky @ From Ministry to Motherhood says

    February 11, 2011 at 6:34 am

    I would love to go down into Georgia to sit amid the trees as they begin to blossom and drink some sweet tea. Sounds a little like heaven to me.

  66. Jill says

    February 11, 2011 at 6:36 am

    I’d love to go somewhere warm, but if it was only for a weekend, I think I’d head to Northern MI…Traverse City or Petoskey or somewhere around there, it’s so pretty there any time of year!

    Happy Weekend!

  67. BreeT says

    February 11, 2011 at 6:36 am

    I would go ANYWHERE just to get away! If I had to choose, I would say Bermuda or the Bahamas because they are kind of close!

  68. Cathy Helmert says

  81. amy says

    I’d go anywhere that’s warm! In CT we still have 2ft of snow on the ground with 4ft snow drifts. I am so tired of the snow and the cold! I heard that it was 80 in FL the other week so that would be really, really nice right now!

  82. Becky says

Snowmen, sledding, snowball fights, then hot cocoa and a warm crackling fire ~ perfect for a weekend getaway. {Then I come back home before I have to actually try to function in that weather! :) }

    Ooo, I’ve always wanted to buy one of your bags. I’ve actually dreamed about it, lol.

    I would go to the beach if it were warm enough. That’s my weekend getaway, because it’s only 3 hours from here, and it just sounds divine. Have a great weekend :D

    I would travel to Seattle. My BFF’s husband has been stationed there for years and I never got the chance (honestly, the $$) to visit. They’re coming back to the east coast this year and I would LOVE to see her west coast home and the sights before she comes closer to home!

    (BTW thanks for the pictures! I was wondering how big they were! I can read dimension numbers all day long but it still doesn’t make sense in my head lol!)

I don’t get to “getaway” much these days, but if I could, I would take a weekend trip (with bag in hand) to Charleston, SC, or Savannah, GA. They both have fabulous ghost stories, ones that will make you pee your pants hearing them!

  112. Amy says

    Since we’ve had some extremely frigid weather here in Michigan, I’d go someplace warm with my hubby. I’d love to visit my parents in Africa! Or, a little closer to home, maybe Phoenix.

    February 11, 2011 at 7:32 am

    If I would get away for the weekend I would make sure the weather was warm and sunny. I would take my family to Charleston, SC. Hang out at the beach. Eat Seafood. Visit Historic Sites. And stop in to visit family.

  123. Katie says

    February 11, 2011 at 7:32 am

    I agree with most of the posts. Even though the temperatures are starting to rise (just a bit), I really would love to be somewhere warm right now where I don’t have to worry about work/school. A couple days on the beach would do a lot of good. (And I would love to have one of those totes as a carry-on! )

    I will also take my old stanby, Wrightsville Beach, any weekend I can get there!

  128. kate says

  132. Tanya says

    February 11, 2011 at 7:41 am

  133. Jocelyn says

    February 11, 2011 at 7:41 am

    The Grand Canyon! Last time we were there, we were in a car accident, so it cut the enjoyment short!

    Being that we live in Rochester, I think it would be nice to head up to the north shore for the weekend. Take the dogs, go snow shoeing, just enjoying what will feel like a nice “balmy” weekend! At least for us Minnesotans, it will feel balmy!

  160. Natalie says

    February 11, 2011 at 8:07 am

  166. Tamara says

    February 11, 2011 at 8:10 am

    Thanks for the giveaway!

  209. Gabrielle says

    February 11, 2011 at 8:39 am

    Sounds crazy, but I would love to be able to take my two liitle ones to Disney World. I had promised my 3 year old that we would go after Christmas, but that was before I wrecked my car on a slick, snowy morning and the trip money had to go towards the deductible. :( Anyway, I still intend to take him, but it will take a little while to get the money saved back up.

    Thanks for the fun giveaway!

    I would head to Port Aransas, Texas. We are experiencing a very unusual, cold winter here in Texas so I wouldn’t go hoping to get in the ocean. The beach in the winter is so peaceful and I think it would be a fun and romantic getaway for my hubby and me. Afternoon walks on the beach and dinners watching the sun set over the water. I think I might just have to book that trip!

    I’m gonna be honest here, I honestly don’t want to get away to anywhere right now. The weather here in my part of TN is growing lovelier by the minute! Now, if this question had been asked say, Wed. night I would have ran anywhere there was no snow! {Which I’m going to guess would be pretty far!}

    -Many Smiles on this LOVELY Friday!

    Love all the styles…that woodgrain fabric is just fabulous!

    As far as where I’d like to pack up one of your totes and go…for a long weekend, I wanna go to New Orleans….I’ve been reading several books based in New Orleans and it’s made me want to plan a trip there.

    Now if I had more time, I’d pack up the family and head to london! I’m desperately in need of a new pair of lonsdale sneakers and I think we can totally justify a trip to london so that I can go shoe shopping.

    I really want one of the totes….and $50 could go a long way to helping me justify the purchase! I’m ready for a trip to England …. or Italy. Some day!!

  233. Jen Ritchie says

    February 11, 2011 at 8:59 am

    I love use it to travl up to my inlaws or just for long days away from home. I just love the tote bag (pink one)!!!

    February 11, 2011 at 9:00 am

    I live in the Twin Cities too. . .and I am SO ready for winter to be OVER, so if I could choose anywhere to go for the weekend it would be any tropical location with LOTS of SUN! I want to feel my skin baking! I actually spent a good chunk of yesterday looking for plane tickets to anywhere and everywhere that has WARMTH for cheap. . . nothing! SAD!

    P.S. I am TOTALLY in love with the yellow laptop bag! LOVE IT!

  235. Sydney S says

      Oooops….totally forgot to add my travel wish in. Just got so excited I guess…

      Ummmm, well I hear Minneapolis is nice this time of year, so maybe to visit Gussy! Who am I kidding though, I HAAAAATE cold weather. I would actually go plop myself on a beach somewhere in the Caribbean. And I’d pack a Gussy tote with some books, magazines my iphone/ipod and beach type snacks.

  248. Kristine Andres says

    February 11, 2011 at 9:13 am

  258. Alyssa says

    February 11, 2011 at 9:22 am

    If I could go anywhere for the weekend, it would be to the Gunflint Lodge up north where my husband and I went on our honeymoon. It was amazing!!

  259. Keeley says

    February 11, 2011 at 9:23 am

    We live in ND, so you know what kind of weather we’ve been having!! LOL! I would take the family and go down to FL. I never went to Disneyworld when I was a kid, so I’d love for my four littles to experience that. I’d probably enjoy myself a little, too. ;)

  260. Leslie Zimmerman says

    February 11, 2011 at 9:25 am

    Recently I’ve been obsessed with visiting Washington DC. I’ve lived in the US all my life and while most my peers went in 8th grade, I did not due to money issues in my family. But now, now I want to go and run around like a crazy American <3

  261. Megan Lane says

    February 11, 2011 at 9:25 am

    so cute! it’s so hard to pick a place, but portland is way high on my list right now. i just wish it was more affordable to fly there!!

  262. Tammy says

    February 11, 2011 at 9:26 am

    I’d want to go to Vegas. It’s been a couple years, since we’ve gone. I miss it. We use to go 2x a year when we lived in Phoenix.

  263. Kelaine Haas says

    February 11, 2011 at 9:26 am

  266. Suburban Sweetheart says

    February 11, 2011 at 9:28 am

    I’ve basically looked at your market totes every day for two weeks, waffling about when to spend the money to get one. THE TIME IS COMING, I SWEAR. They’re all adorable!

    And if I could get away for a weekend, I’d either go back to DC, where I used to live, to visit friends, or I’d go to New Orleans to get a little crazy & visit another old friend who lives there now. Ah, a girl can dream…

  267. April in CT says

    February 11, 2011 at 9:28 am

    We went to Acadia National Park on vacation (our first!) last year and I would go back because we just didn’t have enough time there. Beautiful!

  268. Tara says

    February 11, 2011 at 9:30 am

    If I could get away for the weekend, I’d go visit my great aunt and uncle in their tiny town in Southern Kansas.

  269. Amanda M says

    February 11, 2011 at 9:30 am

    I would capture my husband and head back to our southern roots for the weekend. Alabama here we come!

  275. Lindsey says

    February 11, 2011 at 9:35 am

  286. irene g says

    February 11, 2011 at 9:50 am

    February 11, 2011 at 10:00 am

    Just for a weekend? I think it would be Palm Springs. Outlet shopping, cute boutiques, fine dining and a calm atmosphere. Plus it’s only about a 2 hour drive away from Oceanside. :)

  295. Bracey Pate says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:01 am

    I’d love to go to Austin, TX to visit my brother…I haven’t been able to make it out to see him since he moved there, and I really want to see the city again.

    Love the lap top bag!!

  296. Kels says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:01 am

  299. Shelbey says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:05 am

    The bags are adorable and I would absolutely love one! :)

    I would travel to Colorado Springs or Denver which is about 8 hours away. I’d have to get up in the mountains and enjoy those but there is also great shopping to be found!

    February 11, 2011 at 10:09 am

    FL – I grew up there, and I am soooo cold! (In MN too, Gussy!) I’m so glad you took those pics – it really shows how the bags look! I want the yellow tote, but I would also need a coordinating (but not matchy) diaper changing kit and little pouch for the extras….

  303. Laura R. says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:10 am

    The tote bag looks awesome! Hmm, where I could travel to for the weekend… Costa Rica! Thanks!

    February 11, 2011 at 10:13 am

    Just for the weekend…a pretty beach in FL. Do nothing but sit on a chaise under an umbrella, listen to the waves, read, listen to music, and recharge my batteries. Sounds lovely…

  306. Meg says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:13 am

    Love the yellow woodgrain! Humm, if I could go anywhere for the weekend, I would go somewhere off the coast of Maine…I’ve always wanted to go to Maine!
    Thanks for the chance! Have a lovely weekend!

  309. Laura @ Just For Love says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:17 am

    OOoh let’s see…I think I would like to have a romantic mini-getaway to a nice resort in the Poconos with my hunny : ) We live really close to there and I still haven’t been.

    P.S. Your bags and that Allora Handmade necklace in pink look like a match made in Heaven!

  310. Shanda says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:20 am

    I would travel somewhere warm and quaint – we just had our 2nd child 8 days ago & it has been snowing a lot in Nashville lately. It would be great to go somewhere quiet as a family and be able to go outside and really enjoy the fresh air.

  311. Kate says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:20 am

    If all I have is a weekend, I would head to AZ to visit my brother’s family and enjoy the warm weather

  312. Katie says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:21 am

    I LOVE the pink Laptop bag! SO cute :)
    Well since Valentine’s Day is coming up – I’d go back to Hawaii with my hubby! It’s where we had our honeymoon. Sigh!!!
    xoxo

  313. Jamie says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:23 am

    Those bags are delicious, Gussy!
    I think sunny California would be my choice of vacation. We tend to spend all our vacation days visiting family, which I love, but then never seem to have days off for a spontaneous trip to who-knows-where just for fun.

  314. Valerie says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:28 am

    I would go to Napa! It is so beautiful and relaxing there. Pure heaven :)

  315. Meredith says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:29 am

    That is hard, but I would probably leave sunny California for Seattle. I grew up near there and I loved it!

  316. Kara says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:33 am

    I would go to Florida and visit Harry Potter world if I could go on a vacation. Warm sun and some pumpkin juice sounds pretty good. ;)

  317. Bethany says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:36 am

    If I could get away anywhere for the weekend I would love to travel to the beach! I absolutely love to just lay there and watch the ocean, it’s so peaceful, relaxing & breathtaking!

  318. Kristin says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:41 am

    any place tropical! this midwest winter has been ROUGH!!

  319. Ashley says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:42 am

    I would travel somewhere warm and sunny with white sand beaches!!!!

  320. Kristin says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:45 am

    I love those and it does help to get a perspective on their size. I really need one! :) I would travel to CA if I could, to meet my blogging buddy Veronica!

  321. Vicki @ Crowning Victoria says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:51 am

    i would go the beach. stick my feet in the sand and soak up the warm sun!

  324. Brooke Epple says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:58 am

    Oh my goodness. I would love to go to my G-mas house. She is the best cook, and there are always fun relaxing things to do. Time moves slower in Licking MO for sure.

    The pink starburst tote bag is gorg! Pick me gussy :)

  325. Keri says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:59 am

    For a weekend right now, when I’m looking at 2-3 foot snow drifts? Key West!

  326. Kara says

    February 11, 2011 at 10:59 am

    I love those totes! You do a wonderful job. I only wish I could sew half as good :)
    I would love to get away to a beach for a day or two (at least) and maybe throw in some 70 degree weather!

  327. kate says

    February 11, 2011 at 11:00 am

    we live in oregon and only an hour up the mountain is a hotspring in the forest calling my name …. we have 4 kids so we just dont make it up there like we used to..smile

    Oh I would go to Lake Tahoe! I live only 20 minutes away down the hill, but am in the high desert and we have no trees. It’s just beautiful up there and the smell of the pine trees……..thx

  333. Leanna says

    February 11, 2011 at 11:09 am

    I would love to go to a family cabin, where me and my husband had our honeymoon 8+months ago. It’s rugged and I have many fond memories there.

    Gussy! I love the yellow bag, with the gray ruffle, that is an amazing color combo!
    your blog has inspired me to start investing more into my tiny business! feel free to go to my blog I just started a couple weeks ago!

  334. dawn says

    February 11, 2011 at 11:09 am

    love the new bags! i’m 33 weeks pregnant with #4, so i can’t go too far….but would just enjoy a quiet weekend of rest and no responsibilities :)

  335. Lacey says

    February 11, 2011 at 11:10 am

  336. Jennifer says

    February 11, 2011 at 11:19 am

    I would travel to Dominica to visit my sister and brother-in-law. Even though it would take the entire weekend just to get there, it would be worth it just to have a nice and slow dinner together. Thanks for this giveaway opportunity. Your bags are gorge!

    February 11, 2011 at 11:37 am

    If it’s just for a weekend, I’d want to go visit family! If it were for a week or longer, I’d want to go to London and the surrounding countryside.

  357. Shandell says

    February 11, 2011 at 11:39 am

    I would travel to the mountains. We haven’t had any snow in the valley, but the mountains are only a little over an hour away.

  365. Julie says

    February 11, 2011 at 11:49 am

  366. Laura Mae says

    February 11, 2011 at 11:50 am

    Gussy, I just love you.

  369. Sharone says

    Hey, I clicked over to your blog from ohamanda.com. :)

    This time of year always makes me think of Egypt, because I spent a spring semester there during my junior year in college. With the events going on now, though, it’s not a good travel destination anymore. My dreams of working/doing missions there might have to go on hold…but I’ve still been wondering about the state of visas….

    Anyway, even if I can’t travel at the moment, I’d love to have a chance to do some shopping from your products!!

  380. Megan says

    February 11, 2011 at 12:13 pm

    I would love to go to the beach, I don’t think I’ve seen the ocean in about a year! That’s sad considering how close we live.

  381. Cassie says

    February 11, 2011 at 12:15 pm

    If we could only go away for the weekend we would probably drive up the coast to Monterey because it is so beautiful and it has our favorite aquarium :)

    February 11, 2011 at 12:16 pm

    Love the bags. They’re so cute!
    For a weekend… somewhere close by, as to not waste time getting there and home. I’d go to Ojai, relaxing at the spa and enjoying some quiet time with the hubs would be awesome!

    I’d love to go to the coast and stay at a bed and breakfast. My husband and I stayed in one for our honeymoon, and I’d love to go back there. They had the best homemade chocolate chip cookies!

  398. Leigh says

    February 11, 2011 at 12:43 pm

    I would love to just get away with just my husband. Anywhere warm would be nice. But just to be alone with him even if just to stay I a hotel is good enough for me!

  399. Allison says

    February 11, 2011 at 12:46 pm

    As cold as it has been here and as much snow as we have gotten (Oklahoma, 20 inches), i would actually like to go snow skiing right now. I could also go somewhere warm, that would be nice!

  400. aliciamariel says

    February 11, 2011 at 12:47 pm

    If I had my own private jet, I’d go to Morocco for the weekend – I’m dying to see all the rich history, vibrant colors and beautiful fabric and tiles. But with real-life circumstances, I’d go to Amelia Island, FL where my hubby and I got engaged. Memories, romance, quiet beaches, palm trees, warm weather…what could be better?

  401. Allyson @ a Heart for Home says

    February 11, 2011 at 12:48 pm

    I’d take Italy. It’s a big dream of mine and I’d take it, even for just a weekend :)

    February 11, 2011 at 12:54 pm

    My hubby and I have both been working on weekends lately and are in dire need of a vacay! I’d love to go back to Yosemite and spend some time snowshoeing this winter… I just got new snowshoes and have only used them once!

  416. Marixa says

    February 11, 2011 at 1:20 pm

  417. Cindy @ The Flipping Couple says

    February 11, 2011 at 1:28 pm

    Oh gosh. I’d probably head south to somewhere (anywhere!) with a beach and lots of sunshine. I love the Marco area, so maybe Marco Island, FL. Mmmmm, sunshine.

    Hi Gussy! I would most definitely travel to sunny San Diego, CA for a weekend getaway. I LOVE the beach! I would for sure have a Gussy bag with me to tote all of my magazines, sunblock and towel too. :)

  443. Rebecca@This Present Life says

    February 11, 2011 at 2:57 pm

    First of all, LOVE all of the totes…as a woman and a mom, the bigger the bag, the better! Second of all, you are just adorable (I mean that in the least weird way possible). And third of all, if I could go anywhere right now, it would be somewhere sunny and warm (I don’t function well in the cold!).

  444. Kristi F. says

    February 11, 2011 at 3:01 pm

    I’m new to your website and absolutely LOVE your work! It’s inspiring me to work on opening my own little shop because I love to sew, paint, and craft!

    If I could go anywhere for a weekend, I wouldn’t actually choose a place away from the cold (I’m a Twin Cities Gal myself). Not that I completely enjoy frigid weather, but I really want to go to Ely, MN for a dog-sledding weekend! That would be awesome!

  445. Amanda says

    February 11, 2011 at 3:02 pm

    San Diego this time of year. But when it’s a bit warmer NYC for sure!

  448. Anne says

    February 11, 2011 at 3:12 pm

    I’d jet off to Naples Florida with my sweetie for the weekend! But since we can’t, we are going to a marriage conference at our church instead.

  449. Kori says

    February 11, 2011 at 3:14 pm

    For a weekend? Probably San Luis Obispo or Yosemite. I NEED to travel somewhere…soon :) Love your bags!!!

  450. Cassie says

    February 11, 2011 at 3:14 pm

    I would love to go to Hawaii! I lived there when I was younger and it’s just so beautiful. Plus, I’m craving beach time with all the snow we’ve been having :)

  451. Madaline Meatte says

    February 11, 2011 at 3:17 pm

    If it’s just for the weekend…how about St. Louis or New Orleans. I love St. Louie and I’ve never been to New Orleans! Maybe I should start planning!

    Funnn!!!

  452. Kori says

    February 11, 2011 at 3:17 pm

  453. Sarah W says

  454. Bethany says

    February 11, 2011 at 3:31 pm

    LOVE your bags!

    This weekend? I’d go to St Simons Island, GA. It’s a tiny, quaint island on the coast that I grew up visiting. When I was little, our family would go for President’s Day weekend with a bunch of friends. We would stay at the King & Prince which is a beautiful place. And it’s where my husband proposed to me almost 4 years ago! We love that place!

  455. Nichole says

    February 11, 2011 at 3:42 pm

    I love your Yellow market bag <3<3<3

    If I could go anywhere for a weekend I would fly to sunny CA to see my little sister. I havn't seen her in 2 years. This year she is a senior in high school and she sent me the sweetest Christmas card ever. I am dying to do something crazy and surpise her somehow, but it is hard because I am still in school.

  456. sarah says

    February 11, 2011 at 4:03 pm

    We’d really like to be at the beach right now. :)

  457. Brittany says

    February 11, 2011 at 4:11 pm

    Your bags are so so cute!

    If I could go anywhere for a weekend, I would go to Hawaii to soak up the sun. I know, not an original idea, but amazing none the less.

  458. Ashley N says

    February 11, 2011 at 4:14 pm

    I think I would go see my brother and cousins in Orange County. The delightful beach weather all year round makes it a pretty easy choice too :)

  459. anna says

    February 11, 2011 at 4:20 pm

    If we could go on a trip right now, I would travel to Seattle. Not quite a warm tropical winter getaway, but it’s where we met, got engaged and honeymooned!

    Fingers and toes crossed big time!! If I could just pick up and go anywhere for the weekend it would be to Napa. Just about an hour away, but I’d love to have some kid-free time with my hot hubby to go wine tasting, and maybe even hit up a spa! Thanks for the chance, Gussy Girl! I’ve been dying for a Gussy since they came out! XO!

  505. Kelly says

    February 11, 2011 at 8:03 pm

    Well, since it might be hard to get somewhere warm if I only had the weekend to do it, my next choice would be up north here in Michigan. Glen Arbor, or Traverse City for some winter fun…cross country skiing, snow shoeing, hot tubbing and hot cocoa!

    I was just daydreaming about this today:o) I just love the south. When I traveled to Savannah, GA I fell in love. I fell for the people, the architecture, the music, the scenery and the food of course! I really enjoyed walking around some of the gardens in the warm Savannah weather while looking up at the mossy oak trees. Pure bliss. I could spend hours upon hours in those beautiful gardens. If I could go anywhere for a weekend getaway it would be Savannah, Without a doubt. Life down south is just so simple, so wonderful. If I had a gussy bag like the yellow woodgrain market tote you are modeling life would be well…fabulous:o)

    I think it would be fun to check out Atlanta. Otherwise, I’d head back to my hometown in Illinois to spend time with my family and friends.

    Anywhere that is sunny – which kind of makes me fickle because the weather has been so wild in Michigan lately – so anywhere that I wouldn’t have to wear a parka for the weekend!

    If I could go anywhere for a weekend getaway it would be to our friend’s guesthouse – they so kindly open it up to anyone who wants to stay, and it is fabulous :) and right in town, so we don’t even have to make travel plans!
