Classic Outfit Featuring My Dream Bag

So there is a little bit of a story behind my obsession with the outfit above and the bags featured but let me start off by saying I know it is kind of a spring time outfit and you're probably thinking what the heck it is the middle of winter, not summer! Well you see, I  keep finding myself day dreaming of spring and summer. Getting dressed requires so much less effort and things are more simple and easy during warmer weather. To be fair, you could totally wear this kind of outfit any time of year with the right accessories. Now, here's the little story behind this post:  I fell in LOVE (no exaggeration) with this messenger bag ever since I saw Amanda Seyfried wear it in the movie Letters to Juliet (picture above is a still from the movie). She wore it all throughout the movie and it just looked amazing with everything! I knew I had to have it the moment I saw it!  Well that was 3 years ago. Turns out this bag is highly coveted, due in large part to the movie,  and it is always sold out online, not to mention it is a bit pricey. But rightfully so, because it truly is the most perfect, stylish and practical bag that you could use everyday for years to come. It is the perfect companion for work, for everyday life, and for all your traveling adventures across the world to far off, exotic lands (I told you my mind wanders).  So I have been lusting over this bag on and off for the past 3 years and one day, it will be MINE (unless they stop making them, then I'll cry like a baby). Here are a few more shots from the movie showing the bag in all its glory. :)

I really think this would make a perfect holiday gift for your best friend, a boyfriend/husband, mom or dad, your favorite aunt? I mean really, who wouldn't want to receive such a classic, made-to-last, versatile, piece of leather craftsmanship? Can you tell I'm obsessed?
