@Cordeliere and @JVSXOXO, sending you both hugs and hoping for calmer times. Hang in there!

@880, loving all of your pairings. You have great style!

@dcooney4, I like the strap pairing with the bag. It makes it more sporty for day (and more comfortable than a chain strap, I’m sure!). May I ask who makes the bag? The logo (?) on the front is really cool, but it’s not one that rings a bell for me.

Let's see if I can find some footwear and bag shoes :thinking:

As you can see I don't match bags and shoes apart from very occasionally.

Honestly, I never knew I had so many Gucci shoes :sweatdrop:

Mui Mui snakeskin silver platforms with Gucci grey Bamboo TH
Gucci grey Wimbledons with Gucci red suede bowler with horse-bit leather trim
Gucci fur-lined clogs Hermes Bambou GP
Gucci Dionysus boots with Chanel Tassel
Gucci scarlet Betty heels :love: with Gucci satin/crystal 1973 & Malachite python1973 G-detail
Gucci ostrich Gideon lace-ups with Gucci suede Lady Web
Gucci Wimbledons with Gucci Oasis Clutch
Balenciaga blue suede platform boots with Gucci blue suede Babushka (much closer in colour than the pic suggests)

Long time--no post. I have been swamped and barely keeping my head above water. I have scanned the posts each day and kept up, but didn't have the energy to even hit the like button. Have emotionally shared the ups and downs that have been shared and feel for those posting.

But in my daily keep-up looking, I realized I have a picture on my phone of an outfit from 2019 that fit the theme. This is my Valentino rockstud. It is small but holds enough for a date. It is my favorite color. I love the length of the strap because it is long enough to fit over my shoulder. The leather does not feel like my Hermes bags, but it was a super bargain from Fashionphile, so the price was a fraction of Hermes. Nine West shoes, Ex Libris en Kimonos shawl, Hublot watch, Hermes silver cuff with a croc pattern.

Take care all. I don't expect to post again until things settle down.

I love all the colors! And I can relate to feeling and being overwhelmed.

I can relate @Cordeliere and am sending you well wishes! :flowers:

I’m just getting back into reading through my favorite threads and posting again after a little hiatus. Life has been hectic as I’ve moved and am managing a difficult custody battle and divorce. “But still, like air, I’ll rise…”

Curious do you have a favorite suitcase brand that you use for flying? I have an incredibly well made suitcase but, it is 14 1/4 pounds empty. It is a check in bag with two wheels. Would you buy a new suitcase to lose four to five pounds of weight and get 4 wheels?

Absolutely! I´d buy the cheapest most lightweight suitcase with four wheels I could get. They treat them so badly on flights anyway... We have several pieces of luggage by a cheap brand called 5cities. Black nylon, not impressive looking at all, but nice quality and when they decide to break at some point it´s no financial loss at all.
When I want to use a stylish suitcase I opt for my vintage Rimowa- no wheels, lots of dents, but a very charming and still classy piece.
