I love the coastal and beach life. I decorate our home in the coastal cottage style, I enjoy wearing t-shirts and clothing t-shirts, jewelry and other items that reflect my love for the beach. There’s something about my inner soul…when I’m standing on the beach, smelling that salt air, feeling the sunshine hit my face and the breeze blowing my hair. I love it….I feel it in my body from head to toe!

Two weeks ago I was doing some pre-holiday shopping. I start my shopping EARLY so that I can get bargain deals and purchase items that I think my gift recipients would really want. I’m frugal but do give really nice holiday and Christmas gifts.
Anyway, I came across this genuine leather cross-body bag that featured a hand-painted sea turtle design on the front. It’s a smaller-sized bag…perfect for when I’m out walking the boardwalk or beach and ONLY want to carry a few things along with me. There’s 3 zippered compartments to help keep items separated and organized. This is not your every day bag or carry the kitchen sink type of bag. It’s for essentials only, making it a great travel bag.
Genuine leather bags of any size are expensive! You add on the hand-painted design that that should jack-up the price even more. Well guess what? The bargain shopper that I am….I got the bag for $9.99 with FREE shipping. Yes, you read that correctly! After purchasing several items earlier in the day for holiday gifts, I decided to treat myself to this gorgeous little cross body bag! I absolutely LOVE IT!
