What about the little things?

Traveling anywhere always requires packing several items & it's the little things that I never can seem to find. My eyeliner for example, I can't ever find it in my huge bag! The zipper pouches at Candy Argyle worked perfect last weekend when we were traveling. It was the perfect size for the little odds and ends, like the make-up essentials, tweezers, Q-Tips.... & the list goes on. But beside being great for just about all your toiletry needs, they're made from some cute fabrics as well! Available with a zipper or fun snaps, either way you'll be able to find your eye liner when you need it:) We have a fun snap pouch to giveaway!

(please note the item has snaps not a zipper)

#1 Your favorite your bag at Candy Argyle!

"Larger than life!"

Since today seems to be the day to write about traveling bags. I thought I would share with you this BIG bag at Nankeen. Yeah this is how I roll! This bag is quite perfect for any vacation. I love that there's a story behind the making of these lovely fabrics too. The hand-printed fabric process was created over 3,000 years ago. (Make sure you read the depth version here) This ancient Chinese tradition is quite the process but the end result is beautiful. Such a historic process, earns the price tag. You definitely will get your moneys worth out of this... Just add it to your Christmas list:) Thanks for the tip Sarah!

Dressing up isn't just for girls...

Being a mom of 3 boys makes me feel kinda left out during the holidays because I don't have a girl to dress up.

You'll want to tell all your friends bout these:)

Guilt Free

I'm easily tempted when it comes to good deserts. As you can tell my all my spare rolls, I usually give in when it comes to sweets! Well good news for my figure, Le Viette has calorie free treats for me to serve up to my guests! Looks good right? I'm sure glad these are made of towels or I just might be tempted. But seriously, how fun would these be to leave on the pillows when you have company spending the night?

Party of 5

When we walk into a restaurant, my kids think it's their Que to go crazy! Let just say all eyes are on our table. The wait is the hardest part, so I'm always looking for ways to entertain them. I just got a Designer Diner from Baby Cakes and I have to say the last eating out experience we had was quite enjoyable. Instead of dumping out the salt and pepper shakers, my boys were busy drawling pictures on the reuseable chalk mat & even taking turns! Oh and when the food finally arrived, I just flipped it over and it made a cool place mat;) Shop now and SAVE 20%, just use coupon code "simple"
Thanks to our friends at Baby Cakes we have a Designer Diner to give away to a lucky Simple Finds reader!

Feeling Urban?

If I had to choose one accessory to wear, it would be a bracelet. I'm a pretty simple girl but we're talking about accessories, so it should stand out right? That's why I'm diggin the fresh, urban styles at The Unleashed Pen. Made out of simple leather but definitely the right bracelet to wear with that new fall outfit:) Check out The Unleashed Pen & SAVE 20% off your purchase, just mention Simple Finds in the notes to seller!

Lovely Stitches

If you are looking for a handmade something this holiday season, you'll want to scoop up one of these bags from Samaya. This shop is full of black denim & lovely appliqued red blossoms.
