BAF Weekly IT List

Did you ever think the Balenciaga City bag would make a comeback? I sure didn’t! I am starting to see them on street; old and new. There is trend to find one on the secondary market as well as buy new. It seems this IT bag from yesteryear is hotter than hot this year! So, if you have one, pull it out from the back of your closet. If not, invest in one now! I love mine; you can see my recent review here.

In addition to old IT bags making a comeback, the anonymous handbag is still going strong and continues to be the ultimate IT bag of 2026. So, keep investing in beautiful bags high in quality and not overpriced. Also, continue to stay away from logos.

Spring nail polish, neutral yet comfy sneakers, pearl jewelry, and floral fragrances are also hot right now. Classic style is hot! Love that!

Classic navy shirt dress

wearing: gold earrings (old, also love this pair) / turquoise necklace / shirt dress in navy / gold bracelet (old, similar here) / black handbag / winter nail polish / patent block heels (old, also love this pair) /

While the rest of the country was buried in snow, we had some spring weather peek through last weekend. Sorry east coast!

Since the weather was mild, and we were attending an event, I decided to dress for spring, and it was perfect! The temps were in the mid-sixties, and we enjoyed a buffet lunch outside. I didn’t need a wrap, sweater or jacket. Bring on the spring weather!

This shirt dress is not only comfortable, it is the perfect go-to for daytime events and the office. I will definitely be wearing it a lot during the spring and summer seasons. Love!

Since the shirt dress is timeless, this navy version can live on in my wardrobe for many years to come. Love that! If you don’t already own a shirt dress, I highly recommend investing in one. You won’t regret it!

Are you still enjoying winter, or are you ready for spring weather?

YSL Libre Florals and Flames edp review

pictured: YSL Libre Floral and Flames edp 1 oz bottle / nail polish /

I am in love with YSL Libre Floral & Flames edp for the spring and summer seasons! Possibly beyond! Although categorized as a fresh floral, this acts as a spicy floral when on the skin. I am in love!

YSL Libre Floral & Flames edp combines fragrance notes of palm-tree flower accord, lily flower accord, vanilla, and orange blossom accord. This creates a warm, spicy floral experience perfect for warm weather; and also moderate temps. Love!

Since this is an eau de parfum formula, YSL Libre Floral & Flames lasts about ten hours on my skin. The spicy scent ends sooner, around six hours, and then you are left with a beautiful warm floral fragrance for the remaining, roughly four hours.

There are a few sizes of the YSL Libre Floral & Flames edp fragrance available, including a travel size you can take on airplanes. Love that! I purchased the one-ounce bottle, which is pictured above.

So, if you are looking for a new spicy floral, this is the one! It will also make a fabulous gift. Love!

Thanks for stopping by!

XOXO
