kikki.k leather

i adore the gorgeous leather goods from kikki.k's new christmas gift guide.

especially that tan bag!

then again i'd happily don a trench coat and carry a red travel wallet around stockholm.

you would be pretty flattered to receive one of these

how cute!

the simple things in life...

like starting the day with fresh soft boiled farm eggs, espresso and strawberries.

it sure did make my tummy very happy.

going with my own version of a detox... all natural foods, no sugar or preservatives, lots of water.

coffee still a must though.

it's just not an option to exclude my black gold.
