A Spa Day!

Deanna and I had a great day at the Spa.  Several ladies at the spa commented on her gorgeous coloring.  I can't agree more.  She has clearly become my favorite Shell of late.... How do I describe her coloring?  Well, it's kind of an olive green with black trim.  The material is very soft to the touch and has sort of a reptile look to it.   A picture just does not do her justice.

I find Deanna's "extra" pockets really handy.  The large one in front is really great for pens that you can never find in the bottom of your purse.  And, the side pockets worked really well for my keys on one side and my cell phone on the other side.  Yep, Deanna has it all....good looks and practicality!

One of the things I really love about Deanna is how lightweight she is.  Hopefully, Miche put all their big bag shells on a diet.  It sure has paid off for Deanna.  She is, like I said, "just gorgeous!" 

So it was a great day at the spa, we met some new people, had a pedicure and a massage and we both walked out feeling great!  If you want to add Deanna to your Miche collection, just visit my website. 

Deanna is $40.00

My Birthday Surprise!

I was looking at my pics from our trip to Montreal and decided to share my birthday surprise. My hubby planned this great trip to Canada way back in the Spring when I was stressing out with long distance family matters. He kept the whole trip a "secret" revealing to me in July that we were going somewhere and that it was a surprise trip for my birthday. He didn't reveal the plans to me until 2 days before we were to leave. I told him I was losing sleep about what to pack and he better give me some kind of clue....soon! I always stress about what clothes and shoes to pack. The only thing I'm sure about anymore is my Miche Bag and Shells. On my actual birthday, we had a wonderfully romantic dinner cruise on the St. Laurence River. It rained, but it was still beautiful! We had our very own fireworks show with lightning and thunder and I was even surprised with a sparkler on my cake. We both sat stunned looking at the sparkler and just as it was going out I realized we didn't get a picture.

The food was really great. Apparently, the chef is also with a 4 star restaurant - impressive! It was surprising how few people were on the boat - I guess a sign of the economy even here in Canada.

The weather got really nasty with lots of thunder, lightning and very heavy rain. And the boat...well it seemed like we weren't even on the water. I was really amazed that this boat was so stable.


As we were coming back to the dock, we both realized we didn't have an umbrella or for that matter, anything to protect us. But, we got lucky! As soon as we were docked the rain suddenly stopped and we were able to hail a cab in record time.
This is definitely a birthday to remember... surprising, romantic, fun, scary and a very BIG one. Oh, whatever! You're only as old as you feel!





Happy Birthday to me........

Wishing For My Own Adventure

It's just one of those days where you wish you were the one traveling. I've been thinking of my son all day wondering how his adventure in Bolivia is going. I'm missing his phone calls to "just talk" and his calling me to test his ideas or thoughts. And, then I received an email from some friends that are taking a 15 day cruise in Europe. They are putting together a "diary" in pdf format with great pictures of the sights they are seeing. What a great idea! I just might consider this when we go to Europe this Winter.

So, it's just another week and a half before I take off for a vacation - to where I don't know - it's a surprise! What to pack? Don't know. But, I do know I will be taking my Miche Bag with at least 3 shells!

What adventure to you have planned?

Getting Curious

Just like the cat, I'm getting more and more curious as to where I'm going for my "surprise" birthday vacation. My clues are: Need a passport, don't need a bathing suit (I think that rules out Mexico), and my son thinks I've been there but dad has not (so that leaves out Europe). The only thing left is Canada and we've both been to the West (Vancouver) and to the East (Quebec) so I'm thinking it's either Toronto or Montreal. I've been through both, but didn't spend any time there. I'm not even really sure what there is to do there, but I'm sure he has it all figured out. So I'll just keep on being curious and look forward to the day I pack and he has to give me a clue as to what to pack.

Speaking of being curious....are you curious to see what's new with the Miche Bag? A new Shell design that creates "pockets" on both sides of the purse is all the talk around town. Check these designs out....

Rainy Days & Sales

Yes, it's that kind of a day! I had plans to really enjoy my day downtown rummaging through the annual sidewalk sale hoping for some great bargains. I don't really mind the rain, but when the thunder starts, I tend to get a little "spooked". So the sidewalk sale was a wash out.

Speaking of sales....I'm having a Miche Bag Party on Thursday, July 16th. If you call me anytime between now and then you can purchase the Miche Bag for a great discount. Also, the Shells will be one special price. For every Shell ordered you have a chance to win a Miche Shell Organizer. Don't miss out on this great opportunity. Here's how it works:

1. Go to my website
2. Choose a bag (black or brown) If you already have the bag, start choosing your Shells
3. Pick your favorite Shell(s) and then call me today at 866-508-5496 (toll free)

Check out all the Shells available at my Miche Bag page.

Here's a "sneak" look at a few of the newest Shells that will be available.

Any Ideas? I have a few.....

I've been carrying a product for a few months that I was very excited about when I found it at a show. I immediately put it on my website and have had quite a few sales and great response to the product. But, a few weeks ago, the company decided it didn't want anyone to sell this product on-line. They wanted exclusive internet rights to their product. Personally, I think they are making a mistake, but it's a new company and maybe they are still finding their way.

The product is the Miche Bag. I'm sure you have seen it advertised on television. Their premise is they are afraid someone will try to "undercut" them. Maybe I'm too honest to understand their thinking. I still stand behind the product, as I think it is "genius" and am saddened to inform my customers that I will no longer be carrying this product. So now I'm out looking for something new to add to my on-line store - got any ideas? I have a few....so be sure to keep checking my website.
