This cutie came in for me! It reminds me of Bella so much.

In my Pochette Metis for the weekend. [emoji4]
d'awwww - that's so cute!

@ElainePG - hope you feel better soon! I just had surgery on Friday so we can recover together. :drinkup:
@ElainePG and @Sparkletastic - I hope you're both on the mend!

That leather looks fabulous! Nice lines too.
Thank you - it's becoming one of my favorite purses!

Great bag and since Rosés are my favourite there is nothing I don't like to the max in this picture
ahhaaha - I hear you! We've gone straight into summer (what spring?) and Rosé on the patio is just perfect.

I'm wearing a heavy woven linen/cotton curtain today that I use as a beach blanket. I can't be bothered to carry it when we are not laying on it so of course I'm wearing it as a dress. With my Kipling hello Kitty beach bag with the littles.

Just dined at the top rated fine dining establishment in the country last night paired with wines and I am hung over! They give you giant glasses of wines with each seven course and each course is 1-2 mouthfuls of food, and 40 minutes apart. It was an amazing 4 hour dinner but I was tipsy and kinda hungry after and today I am feeling it! Can't bounce back in my thirties like I did in my twenties!
 
Today’s action shot - my Massaccesi mini Zhoe for breakfast with family. We had a “staycation” at a hotel to celebrate siblings’ birthdays. (Do you use the term ‘staycation’ where you are? Hotels here use that term to promote hotel stay just to relax and do fun activities.)

I like your mini Zhoe. Yes, the tourism industry uses the term staycation here, especially during the summer.

We have. It's all the rage in marketing a couple years ago, I think. It's cooling down now though.

Is the leather pebble? [emoji16]

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.

The green croc is so luxurious looking.

Beautiful bag! I’ve heard about Just Campagne but never seen one of their bags. Leather looks great.

@ElainePG - hope you feel better soon! I just had surgery on Friday so we can recover together. :drinkup:

Get well soon! Yes, heal together!

Oooh, I look forward to a report on these Nikes! Will you use them just for walking around? They look great.
EDIT: and just noticed that @vink has similar Adidas. I'm intrigued.

I’ve had them for two weeks and wear them everywhere! The right foot rubbed a little at the back at first (a common issue for me) so I wore socks but now they are perfectly comfortable without. I love wearing sandals but now I can’t if I am to stand more than an hour in them, they are too flat. But I wanted something just as lazy. So when I walked into the Nike outlet store, I told the SA in no uncertain terms that I do not want to fiddle around with shoelaces! Lol. These ones have them but they are pretty much just decorative. I don’t use them for working out in, I have a pair of regular NB runners for that. The name is the Mariah Flyknit Air Zoom if you want to look them up.
