Crossbody Bags - Many Variations

Crossbody bags... I love them.  They can be big enough to carry books, they can be small enough, a wallet on a string, to carry only money, lip balm and kleenex.  I much prefer the latter.  Don't like carrying too much with me, and this need increases as I get older.
 
I remember carrying a medium sized bag, say, 4 years ago.  I would like to know what I stuffed in it, it was heavy.  Then maybe 3 years ago, I decided to lighten my load and bought the small bags, one in white, one bright green, one in black and one taupe.  But I started to find it  annoying to constantly have my hands holding the short strap bags while shopping, while looking for my wallet to pay the cashier, ect.  When I decided to finally use my flat crossbody black bag I had ordered from Avon, revelation!  I was so pleased with my free hands and the fewer items I carried.  It's time for another crossbody bag for me. What color should I get?

60's Vintage Fashion

I heard, as many of you have, that Amy Winehouse died yesterday.  She was only 27 and British, so young and from one of my favorite countries.  Amy had a 60's vibe going on with her beehive hair, and sometimes she wore vintage style clothing.  The first time I saw her was on a Canadian show maybe two or three years ago.  I saw the hair and wondered, then I heard her sing and was fascinated.  I didn't follow her career, but I thought she had a fantastic voice and I was really hoping, because her life was troubled, that she'd get her life back on track.  And so I've found 60's vintage clothing to present in this blog this week.
