Think it went well, at least it lasted 85 minutes & there were 4 of them & they seemed smiling and encouraging all the time.

Your entire outfit is superb ksuromax. I don't know bottlega bags well, only know it as the one with the leather weave. Is the interior leather? They also look like they won't show "wear"
Agreed--it's a fantastic bag for the price.
Browns but I'm including stone and tan too

These are all gorgeous bags, papertiger, but oh, that Bolide! The bag and scarf is an absolutely stunning combination.
Great to hear! Fingers crossed!
Thank you dearly
Yes, correct, it's all leather, intrecciato outside and suede inside, they are very hard wearing bags, but like any other leather bag will show some corner wear and creasing at the handles which imho only adds individiality and charm to each bag. Some of my BV bags are from 2006-2007 and they look a lot better than many others non-BV made lately.
Your bolide is cosmic!!Browns but I'm including stone and tan too

As I was getting dressed today, I thought about how I physically look nothing like my mother and that her fashion sense has had only the barest influence on my style - we both tend toward the feminine but have veeeery different takes on that. In contrast, my daughter is almost a literal physical mini me and her style is 90% reflective of mine - with twists for her younger age and at times a slightly sportier approach.
That led me to wonder... if my mom didn't influence my taste and style, who / what did? It wasn't friends or relatives or even the people I know. It seems to be an amalgam of media inputs - mostly fashion magazines and fashion coverage (runway shows) but also other pop images like pictures of celebrities my mom adored such as Grace Kelly to selfies from current fashion bloggers. From that mix, I think I adopted my personal style as a way to communicate who I am. It's like my packaging.
I picked the approach that I think says "me".
So, my question for everyone today is: Who or what has most influenced your taste and style? And is that approach most reflective of your personality, your career choice, your life stage, your culture or perhaps something else?

I've had to put London on hold for now. Apparently most of my family will be coming here throughout the year! Haha.
If you could go shopping and sightseeing elsewhere in the world, where would you go?
(Where should I take my pocket friends this year?)

The scarf was fab and was tempted too but I already have the most beautiful McQueen chiffon seasonal scarf. Brilliant bag too and so inexpensive
Traveling has most influenced my style. The women in large metropolitan cities (e.g., New York, Tokyo, Sydney) generally dress much better and are definitely more cosmopolitan. I get great styling tips just from watching them. My head was practically spinning in Paris---the women there were the most stylish I'd ever seen.
I typically wear a dress everyday and very rarely wear shorts or jeans. If I wear jeans, they're always dark wash with a blouse, never a t-shirt. I don't wear slippers outside the house (I live in Hawaii. "Flip flops" is the more common term.).
I love scarves, but I only wear them when traveling because it's just a little uncomfortable to wear them in Hawaii.
Thanks! Me too
I have three, this one dark brown, black and dark navy... never too many
Massaccesi Soulmate, my largest handbag. I am done with large handbags, but I'm keeping this one because the leather is so gorgeous. It's quite heavy with my things inside.
