Yesterday I did a little pre-holiday shopping - for myself, haha. I stopped into Sephora specifically to pick up the Yves Saint Laurent holiday makeup kit. I am huge fan of prepackaged makeup sets. They are the perfect little gift for yourself, any time of the year. I spotted this beauty in the Sephora holiday 2009 catalog I received in the mail earlier this week.

After hours of searching web stores and calling various handbag departments at Saks, Nordstrom, and Neiman Marcus I was out of luck.

I knew I had to have this bag and didn't give up on my search. Luckily, a few days later I was browsing Aloha Rag's website when I saw the Coco was in stock. I placed my order and the rest is history.
