Hi everyone, happy Wednesday guys. For all LA folks - what happened to the warm weather?! There are split opinions - some of us are ready for Fall already, and others are longing for Summer to last a bit longer. I'm looking out my window, and it seriously looks like a storm is about to roll in. Don't worry you Summer lovers - looks like the temperature is going back up to mid/high 80s starting tomorrow! EEK!
So I have been obsessing over everything Burgundy - and when I think of this color, I think of other synonymous colors like Wine, Oxblood, Auburn, Maroon, Crimson, so on & so forth. This rich color is such a precursor to Fall. Thinking of this color gets me just a bit cooler to last me throughout the summer heat wave. Here's a few of my favorite Burgundy picks - enjoy!
cheers, julie

hi julie~ ive been ur fan! if you can, can you suggest everyday bag??? thanks~ *H*
ReplyDeleteHi "H". I have been reading the C&S blog daily so I feel like I'm qualified to answer here. I would personally recommend the Jansport "High Stakes" bag. It is made of premium fabric for superior durability and unique texture. It is very functional and it will make a fashion statement to all your friends and your family. And at only $40 it is very price sensible.

hi BC~ jansport bag you recommend is very cute!!!! but i was looking for a shoulder bag/tote that i can wear to work and when i go out with friends...but the jansport bag you suggest is very cute...thinking of ordering one...do you work for jansport??? thanks again~!
DeleteHi H,
DeleteI'm not surprised that you like the bag. As a fervent reader of the C&S blog, I have noticed that I'm developing a keen eye for unique and luxurious fashion pieces at affordable everyday prices.
I do not work for Jansport but I can definitely vouch for their craftsmanship having used their product since 1988. Also they have a lifetime warranty just in case your "High Stakes" bag tears.
Have an A-1 day!

Hi there *H* - thanks so much for your comment & following Cotton and Sparkles. I will do an upcoming post on "every bags." Cheers, and have a wonderful day! Please follow me on Twitter (@cottonnsparkles) and Instagram (#cottonandsparkles).
ReplyDeleteI thought your picks for fall were "red" pumps and booties? Now I'm going to have to return all these shoes. Thanks alot Cotton and Sparkles.
ReplyDeleteHi Bear, thanks for visiting cotton and sparkles. You really have been good to my blog - thank you! In regards to your comment, you can really have multiple colors in your closet for the season. Red is a classic tone, so it really never "goes out of style." So you're good there! Burgundy is Red with a twist - and definitely a Fall must have. Thanks again for visiting! Cheers, julie.
