Since you're "insouciante," you can break a lot of rules here.

I'm curious about where you are procuring these plastic animals.

Also, about the weekender itself. Mine is a ratty old gym bag and I feel like I need to step it up. I purchased an oversized grey leather bag last year, hoping to make it my weekender, but it smoothly transitioned into my everyday bag. I like to carry an inordinate amount of stuff around with me at all times, despite the probable back damage.

i just wanted to tell you that at one point this evening, my purse held both a pair of orange cashmere gloves and a tupperware of ravioli.

rachel, my local art store's children's section has a ludicrous selection of german plastic animals. i head up there (as do a handful of other magazine editors, i've noticed) when i feel that work has shriveled my brain to a tiny, discouraged raisin.

valya, it is precisely for that sort of revelation that i talk about what's in my bags. well done. (what kind of ravioli?)

on bags, mine is rough, to put it mildly. it began life as a gola reynolds duffel and has since become steve's braille message of hope (or something) to north american travelers. both cats (that's chuck in the pic, obvs) have been hard on it. i prefer to use our comme des garcons x h&m duffel, but the zipper is pulling away from the vinyl; it's benched until i can repair it. 

when i grow up, i hope to have a pendleton brodie.

Gah! That tartan bag is truly lovely. Would be a huge upgrade over my offbrand jansport impersonator.
