I am glad to hear you all survived the holidays!
I did too, and got a few wardrobe-presents as well: the beige cashmere scarf that I ordered as a gift from my uncle of course, and my sister got me a black and white DKNY scarf with a combination of plaid and houndstooth pattern that I really liked. Also a leopard print clutch/wallet (apparently someone thinks I need more print in my life! ), and my in-laws gave me this Tiger of Sweden bag:

I'm not sure how I feel about this one... it's definitely not something I would have picked out for myself, although I do usually like different textured leather I don't quite get the pebbled effect. On the other hand, something like this might work to toughen up my otherwise fairly polished outfits, and there is a gap in my wardrobe for this type of bag (works with both jeans and dresses, perfect going-out size). I also have a hard time buying bags for myself, never finding anything I like, and usually love my sister-in-law's style (she's the one who bought it). I don't know, perhaps I am just trying to justify not exchanging it because I hate doing that... Any thoughts?
@fashionista-ta: I really like the wrap, and didn't notice the logo either! I actually have a very similar one, though it's not cashmere.
@eizhowa: I like your colour scheme, and I think mine would be similarly non-colourful. Have you decided on something to wear for New Years yet?
