Brahmin Mini Priscilla handbag // cardigan // lace camisole // jeans // newsboy hat // heels
If there’s one giant way I take after my mom, it’s this: we both are obsessed with handbags. For as long as I’ve known her, my mom has always taken pride in her handbags, viewing them as investments and pieces that you hold on to for many years. For example, she carried a gorgeous Brahmin bag when I was in middle school… I vividly remember looking at her bag, feeling the smooth leather and thinking, “I hope when I’m older I have a grown-up bag like this!” That’s why today’s post is really special – it feels like a dream come true to partner with Brahmin many years later. In today’s post I’m carrying Brahmin’s newest bag for fall – the Mini Priscilla. Mine is the “cognac topsail” color, but I really love them all – it comes in ELEVEN different colors! The bag is large enough to fit my cell phone, keys and a makeup bag… and even comes with a nice leather strap to turn it into a crossbody. If you like larger bags, this one is similar but can hold more inside! You can check out all of Brahmin’s new fall handbags here.
P.S. Do you notice anything different today?! My site finally got a makeover!!! I am so so so happy and in love with the design, but still working out a few kinks over the next week 🙂 I’m dying to know what you guys think!
wow, the new site is so great! i’ve been reading lifestyle fashion blogs for 4 years. but yours is totally the best. consistent quality blog posts and not full of fluff. you just seem more real.

Hi Caitlin!
Your blog makeover looks amazing, very professional! I love how you still kept it simple and userfriendly, that’s what I’ve always loved about your blog. Loving the tones of nude as well!
Also congrats on your collab with Brahmin! I’ve seen their bags being featured on another blogpost and quite liked them – never heard of that brand before to be completely honest.
Thanks for sharing!

I love Brahmin bags! They genuinely last you forever and they’re always so well made! My mom is handbag obsessed too but she always carries SO much stuff in it. I still wonder whats in there sometimes. 🙂 xo

Hi, love that nail color. Who makes it?
Congratulations on the new design Caitlin! I am so in love with it and it is so you. I’ve been following you for years and it’s been great to see you and your business grow and evolve and now it’s amazing to see your site evolve as well. Looks amazing.
Also I love today’s outfit, so classic and that bag is gorgeous. I’m totally guilty of gravitating towards small bags that don’t even fit my phone, but I love that this one is small, but still looks realistic in that you can actually hold stuff inside!

Aww! I love when there’s a story behind a special piece like this, Caitlin! It makes our wardrobe meaningful and a bit more special.
Girl, I LOVE the new design! I had an inkling this website makeover was coming soon! It looks beautiful and goes with how much you’ve grown and evolved as a person and as a blogger. I love how easy it is to find everything too. Can’t wait to see more content from you! xo
P.S. I saw it over the weekend, but didn’t want to say anything since you hadn’t announced it yet, hehe!

I’m dying to know if the tan cardigan is more true to color on your photos or online? Online looks a bit more brighter/orange and in your photos it’s a perfect shade but unsure if it’s due to editing.
It looks supersoft like Baredreams!

It looks like my photos!! When I was searching for it online I had to double check and make sure it was the right cardigan because the color looked different! It is soft, too -not QUITE as soft as barefoot dreams but still really soft 🙂
Love love love the blog refresh! Looks amazing!
SO cute! I LOOOVE the new layout. Everything is perfect.

The redesigned site looks amazing! Not that it didn’t look great before, haha. It just looks much more sleek and polished now. I like that you’ve made previous posts accessible by topic; very useful. All good changes!
WOW! Love the new site, I’ve missed a few days so I was so surprised when I checked in this morning. Looks great and love this bag–I’m sending a pic to my daughter-in-law to be now!
Caitlin! I love the ring on your right hand, pointer finger. Can you tell me where you got it? Thanks so much!
Thank you so much!! I actually got that ring on my honeymoon from a small boutique in Greece! 🙂 It has really special memories for that reason! I’m positive that you could have something made like it here in the U.S. though!
Loving your new layout!

Hey Caitlin!
I’ve been an avid follower of your blog for years. I absolutely love the redesign of your website – it’s now my favourite design of all the blogs I read. It looks so professional and suits your style so well. Fall is my favourite fashion season and I especially love checking out Southern Curls & Pearls for your fall outfits.
I just started my blog this week and I would really love it if you checked it out. You’re my biggest inspiration💗
