Tiffany & Co. Small Leather Goods (SLGs)

Last night, I walked into Tiffany & Co. looking for a bracelet to accompany my new Hermès Clic Clac H in the coveted "Lagon (Lagoon)" color with palladium hardware. I found a perfect match: the Return To Tiffany Bead Bracelet in Amazonite (8mm size).

The helpful salesman at Tiffany & Co. put it on for me and I really loved how it looks stacked with my Lagon Clic Clac H and a few of my bling bracelets. Needless to say, I just had to have it and this gorgeous amazonite bracelet came home with me!

Unfortunately, when I tried to put my new Tiffany & Co. amazonite bead bracelet on the next morning...I just couldn't do it! Even though I have 6" wrists and the bracelet is 7.5" long, I simply was not able to fasten the bracelet because the beads are set close together, making the bracelet stiff. Sadly, I knew I had to return it so I went back to Tiffany & Co. that same afternoon...which is when I discovered that they also carry a delightful selection of small leather goods!

As soon as I left Tiffany & Co. I was so excited to start using my new purchases that I walked next door to Starbucks Coffee to open my little blue boxes. :)

Fumi Purse Hook Bracelet

When the Fumi Purse Hook Bracelet deal popped up on Living Social last week, I decided to give it a try. After all, it seemed like a wonderful idea and the special price of $12 for a $25 value made it an offer I just couldn't pass up. Now the hard part - deciding what color to order. Silver? Gold? Pewter? Black? Brown? Based on my current bag inventory, I decided on silver...although gold was a close second.

The first use of my silver purse hook was on a day cruise on the M.S. Dixie in Lake Tahoe, California. I found it to function very well as a purse hook, but as a bracelet it was too large for me and my 6" wrists. The Fumi Purse Hook is pretty substantial and solid, which is terrific in supporting the weight of a heavy bag. However, it's bulky to wear as a bracelet and I wasn't fond of how it looked hanging from my purse handle, so I just store it in a Tiffany & Co. jewelry case and toss it into my purse.

UPDATE 12/26/13: These purse hooks are so convenient and such a great value through Living Social, I ended up ordering a second one in gold. Just received it today!
