the art to packing light - by anthropologie

How cool is this bag? I must have it... This is how they describe it:

Morning's Call Tote
A wide-eyed rooster wakes up a utilitarian canvas tote with batik-inspired feathers and flora, and a carved, beaded bauble.



They call this last outfit "sea cove".
Anthropologie claims everything here is "packable..."

Honeymoon anyone?
Destination Wedding, perhaps?

Isn't it all too lovely?

Are these two kitties getting married not the sweetest?

Please visit her sites...
It's really quite easy to get lost in them as she has the prettiest music to go with them as you browse.
