If you ever meet me face-to-face, just call me TG - the Travelin’ Gnome.

Not because I resemble a friendly woodland being or anything. I’m like that gnome character from the Travelocity commercial. Always on the move…. Always on the go.

Today I’m returning to NYC. Happily, might I add.

And I wasn’t joshing about the face-to-face meeting thing.

I’d love to have an IndieLust.com Martini-People-Watching-Trash-Talking Get Together in the upcoming months. E-mail me (travelwithme AT gmail DOT com) if you’re game.

Anyway, unlike my other blog posts, the intro you just read doesn’t tie in to today’s featured designer. (Shocking - I know.)

Then again, today’s designer doesn’t need a fancy schmancy spiel. She’s Khrisla Mulvany of LaLa Bags fame.

Her timeless bags have a Lily Pulitzer Palm Beach flair, with a gentle LA edge.

My favorite is the tan and black damask shoulder bag. Damask to me is like chocolate to a sweets lover.

Soooo good!
