When in Paris Dior is certainly one of *the* places to go - and boy did I go ... to all of them I think

since I also celebrated my birthday in Paris I was so very lucky to also get a couple of Dior-thingies as presents

Curious? Well, here's a teaser

joviscot · Nov 15th, 2009, 12:42 PM

Awww come on!! Stop teasing me!! Btw belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!

Black_Swarmer · Nov 15th, 2009, 12:56 PM

He he - it took some time to process the pics, but I think I'm done now! Besides it didn't really look like anyone was here to enjoy a live reveal

And thank you, Joviscot - it was special to celebrate BD in Paris!

But here goes ... First off the two little boxes!

A pair of earrings that I just fell completely in love with! Got them at Gallery Lafayette where they must have shown me something like 10 different pairs, but these ones - wow!
I tried to take a pic from the front to show you that they have sparkling stones all the way around on the hoop, but the pic was really blurry (my hand holding it was all in focus though ...)

Then DH told me that I could get a pre-Christmas present and that he wanted to give me something that was not available in DK - so we went back to Gallery Lafayette and got:

So pretty!

Black_Swarmer · Nov 15th, 2009, 01:04 PM

And then there is a loooong box

With something purple ...

A tassel keyring - so cute! Could've gone for one in every colour available but settled for this since it's, you know, purple

Just one more pic of that one

joviscot · Nov 15th, 2009, 01:27 PM

Oh I remember Gallery Lafayette!! Sooooo many lovely goodies there!! Didnt buy a d*mn thing myself tho ....

Anyhoo - I love your goodies so far and cant wait to see more. Thank you also for not making me wait til tomorrow!!

Black_Swarmer · Nov 15th, 2009, 01:39 PM

Ok, moving on to the next box

Containing something I really needed, well needed is perhaps a little strong but since I didn't have this in Dior I convinced myself that I did! (I'm so easy to fool

)

tadaaaaa, it's a wallet! A black zip-around in gorgeous black lambskin and gold hardware

And so spacious with room for lots of cards! That is the reason I ruled out one of the ones with the chain that also go as a clutch ...

kevlovlevis · Nov 15th, 2009, 01:44 PM

waiting for the big boxes.....

Black_Swarmer · Nov 15th, 2009, 02:10 PM

Sorry - short dinner break

Bigger boxes coming up!

First the biggest of the ones I brought home with these inside:

I

the detail with the gold on the inside of the heel and of course the little Dior metal label on the back

And especially the cute little detail with the zipper D!

I'm going to wear these at work tomorrow - they will look great with just about anything I think

joviscot · Nov 15th, 2009, 02:16 PM

OMG I totally LOVE your wallet - it nearly makes me want a new one!! Its beautiful!! Loving the boots too - are they comfortable to wear??

Btw how much was your wallet??

Black_Swarmer · Nov 15th, 2009, 02:24 PM

And last but not least ...

I spy a cannage pattern

these deserve a proper introduction so here's a little more:

in all their glory!

Cannage Miss Diors with a lace detail, of course with the little C and D in front

I was planning on getting a pair of plain leather Miss Diors, but when I saw these I was in love!

Black_Swarmer · Nov 15th, 2009, 02:32 PM

And that's it - all done now!

So many beautiful goodies and they will probably be the last ones for quite a while since no more trips are planned ... but that is quite all right, I think I'm set for a while now!

joviscot · Nov 15th, 2009, 02:32 PM

Oooh very classy - NICE!! Congratulations on all your goodies from Paris - well done!!

Thank you

I think the wallet was 390 Euro and it is so gorgeous! I didn't really need a wallet either, but you have to have the same brand wallet as your purse, right ...?

The booties felt very comfortable for the 5-7 minutes I wore them when I bought them, but I don't know how they will feel after a couple of hours or more - they are quite high, but with plateau and not exactly a stiletto heel so definitely more for every day use than the Miss Dior shoes. I guess I will know tomorrow

joviscot · Nov 15th, 2009, 03:08 PM

If your feet get too sore then hopefully you will find someone to rub your feet for you and carry you home!!

The wallet would be too big for my small Lady Dior but it would suit my other bags!! BUT I got the quilted Chanel one and I love it so am trying to put evil thoughts out my mind!!

You will look 1m$ tomorrow with all your goodies!! Just what you need to get you through a working day!!

Liberté · Nov 15th, 2009, 04:06 PM

What a great shopping spree! Dior certainly has the most wonderful shop in Paris. The stuff you got is awesome! Congratulations!
