There is nothing better than the annual spring bloom. You know what I mean: that first sunny day when you look around and see colorful blossoms have sprung and the foliage is suddenly verdant again. This year, the most precious petals arrive in the form of appliqués on beautiful bags, which is better because these will never wilt. Instead, the love of these flings will flourish for many seasons to come. Sure, you’ll pack them away for winter, but come the start of spring, you won’t want to wait to take these out.
