The World Is Coming to an End So I Bought This Handbag.

Tomorrow's the apocalypse, y'all. So I took it as an opportunity to buy a new handbag. Makes sense right?

I've been carrying my very beloved Petunia Pickle Bottom diaper bag for over a year now but I'm ready to tuck it away until baby No. 2 comes around in a year or two. As far as I'm concerned I've been carrying the Rolls Royce of all diaper bags; it was a Valentine's present from Nekos the month before T-Town was born and I probably let out a shriek heard round the world when he gave it to me. I have loved this thing to death, and it looks none the worse for the wear even after so many milk spills and animal cracker crumbs and shit-splosions.

So farewell retro diaper bag of my dreams, until we meet again. And hello sophisticated Kate Spade cary-all of my dreams. You see, Kate Spade was having a 75 percent off flash sale yesterday and I hopped to it. When I 'fessed up to Nekos about it over cocktails last night, he wasn't even mad. I owe you one, whiskey!

When I was in high school and Kate Spade was picking up speed I thought it was such a fusty brand, but now everything is popsicle-colored and vibrant and one-of-a-kind. And also way too expensive without a 75 percent off deal.
