I like that their maxi skirts do not brush the floor but you can fold them in a way to hit mid calf

Banana Republic

I really love Banana Republic

You can find some classic pieces but need to be willing to pay a higher price

Love funky jewelry?

A pendant chain with a fun piece is a good way to go!

Shoulder Bags

I have had a few requests for shoulder bags for the sisters

based off of the LDS site guidelines

it looks like you could have some fun!

I am aware the first two are diaper bags

I went to an area where is rained A LOT and we had to use a mission bag (since it was dangerous) that was not water proof. We had to put our things in plastic bags then put those inside the approved mission bag. It would have been SO nice to have a bag that I didn't have to worry about my scriptures getting wet. A plus as well is they come with changing pads, which are also water proof. Have you ever gone into a home and asked to sit on a sick, dirty wet couch? Well I did, a waterproof changing pad would have been AWESOME at that point

The ones below are great for everyday use

and so cute!!!
