This is a must have! Hailing from South Korea, Etude House is one of my favorite, but fairly hard to get cosmetic brands. Well, they now have a line of mini Hello Kitty items and, being a fan of Sanrio and all things cute, I must have them! I am definitely getting a balm, gloss, and a mascara. I might also get the Walnut hand cream.

Fortunately, I also discovered that YesStyle, one of my all time favorite online stores for Asian brands, has them! Below are shopping links for the Hello Kitty Etude House items. But while you are there, look around Yes Style in general. They have some great stuff that is usually quite affordable. I particularly like them for handbags. You can get unique styles and not worry that everyone and their dog will be carrying the same bag around.

A L.A.M.B. Handbag is high on my want list and has been for some time. The L.A.M.B. Handbags are always unique and interesting, and I am a sucker for bags that are not your standard everyday black or brown leather. Plus, I love Gwen Stefani. For whatever reason, however, I haven’t gotten one yet. I came close a few times, but usually something (like my husband reminding me of that pesky budget) stopped me. I think that will change quite soon though, as I really am finding it hard to resist the L.A.M.B. Ultraviolet handbags.

The Ultravioltet bags have signature stitching so that the L.A.M.B logo is subtly stitched into the leather of the bag. The material is available on a number of bag styles, and each type is available in a number of colors: Argon (a pretty blue), Absinthe (yellowish chartreuse), Christalline (a soft gray), Carbon (black with green detail), Nero (black with white detail), Fuchsia (bright pink), and Nude (soft pink). I have a photo of each color choice included below and am giving affiliate links over to Zappos since they have these on sale and also have free shipping.

My personal favorite is the L.A.M.B. – Ultraviolet Rhodes in Christalline and Nude. I could use a new gray purse. Hmmmm……

Also interesting is the L.A.M.B. – Ultraviolet Arcot, a mini messenger type bag with an adjustable cross body strap. Pictured are the colors Argon and Absinthe

Then, for a mix between the two, take a look at the L.A.M.B. – Ultraviolet Etoile, which is part satchel, yet part messenger bag because of its cross body strap. Pictured are the shades Fuchsia and Carbon.
