My Transport Tote

There is no feeling quite like finally getting the one beauteous thing you've spent a whole year pining after. Except for maybe getting it as a birthday present. 

For me, it was the Madewell Transport Tote. I'd seen it on one of my favorite blogs, Kendi Everyday, and the love was instantaneous. The funny thing is, I was shocked at how much I loved it.

"SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 20 & 24, I'VE SHIFTED TO PREFERRING WELL-MADE SIMPLICITY OVER QUICK TRENDS."

If you would've told 20-year-old me that I would be seriously lusting after a plain tan tote (that was also over $100 -- phew) one day, I would've rolled my eyes. "I only do gold hardware detail, fun colors and $40 price tags," I would've said.

I can't wait to wear it with literally everything this spring. It seems like somewhere between 20 and 24, I've to shifted to preferring well-made simplicity over quick trends. Look who might actually be growing up.
