General Whimsy: Bag Lady Part VII

 Hello, hello!
It has been a while since I have done one of these 'Bag Lady' posts! Today, I am going to let you in on one of my little bag buying secrets. Limeroad!
Or rather, some specific brands that sell on Limeroad.




 Limeroad has several beautiful bags and it can be a bit overwhelming to pick out which ones to purchase. There are several indie brands that sell on Limeroad and, again, it becomes difficult to figure out which of those are of good quality and which ones are not. 
So, here are some of my favourites: 
1. Art Forte- Has pretty, India-inspired, printed and very affordable bags. A couple of bags from Art Forte are pictured here from my last haul.  




 2. Desi Drama Queen: I love their satchels- very pretty, colourful and very well made. 




 3. Shaun Design: We've been buying Shaun Design bags since they had a little store on (the now defunct) Shopo.in. Their bags are fabric-faux leather mixed and have pretty details like embroidery etc.





 4. House of Tara: Kitschy, pop art inspired as well as fabric-faux leather combo bags. I am, especially, a fan of their backpacks- they pack a lot! Plus, are very pretty to boot! 



These are some good brands to get started on at Limeroad!

Plus, they have a Buy 1 Get 1 Free offer going till May 22!

Have fun!

Book Review: The Room on the Roof by Ruskin Bond.

Some snippets of the stunning art inside the book!  Book: The Room on the Roof Author: Ruskin Bond Illustrator: Ahlawat Gunjan Pages: 171 Read On: Hardback How Long It Took Me To Read: 3 days or so. Plot Summary:   Rusty, a sixteen-year-old Anglo-Indian boy, is orphaned and has to live with his English guardian in the claustrophobic European part in Dehra Dun. Unhappy with the strict ways of his guardian, Rusty runs away from home to live with his Indian friends. Plunging for the first time into the dream-bright world of the bazaar, Hindu festivals and other aspects of Indian life, Rusty is enchanted … and is lost forever to the prim proprieties of the European community.  General Thoughts: This book is super special. Not only this 60th anniversary edition an absolute beauty. This is also a signed copy I picked up from Mussoorie when I was in Landour earlier in the year. This is perhaps one of Ruskin Bond's most well kn

Who can resist a good story, especially when it’s being told by Grandma? From her bag emerges tales of kings and cheats, monkeys and mice, bears and gods.
