Just to show you the (I think) beautiful charms I'm thinking of.

The first is what Asprey currently do off-the-peg in a 'just' croc key fob which I think are already really very nice. The others are with the precious stones and so far are only available s part of a bag set. These examples are lapis/Malibu croc and mahogany'Amber Fusion lizard, I think the ball gives it as jewel-edge but it will depend on the price of the quote, I can always get the plain croc which are still gorgeous. The bags are way out of my league price-wise and not quite 'me' either so at least I'm safe there. Aspret do have other nice bags though ad their Bull-calf leather/suede totes or their leather/horsehair/suede shoppers are very nice.

Fantastic pictures - that weaving is so beautiful. I can see why the Cabats are so expensive - they are pieces of art! What a cool experience!

I’m planning to get a port merinos Modena eventually. But in no hurry. Maybe if there is a really good sale.

That Chanel tote that got away is really beautiful! But if you want some consolation, i think the corners would wear quite fast.



Thank goodness for this. I have a really bad flare up of plantar fasciitis from wearing sandals all the time. So i just bought two pairs of pull-on Nike sneakers. They’re made of a knit so you don’t need socks and the arch support and heel cushioning is wonderful. They look like this:

Health is the best gift of all!

Today i carried my Rudsak satchel with my KS car charm. A nice reminder of Montreal.

I am starting to like brown more again. I even picked up this drawstring that is made by a small company in Cleveland,Ohio yesterday! They come once a year to a great artisan fair so I can pick the one with the hyde I like best.

This looks hardwearing! And I think you have a tote by them?
