Raisin counts as one of the best purples
 
Great color. And, I’m loving that little sheep!
It’s. Chanel + tote kinda day! Lol! Love your flap.
Pretty flowers!

Thank you!

Beautiful bags !

Thanks DC!

Love your yard! It is still freezing here.

Wow, your garden looks like a winter wonderland!

I like the look of that vertical tote. I've thought about using those for work before!

Thank you. I carry it by hand mostly, to carry documents.

Wow. That is an absolutely stunning view!! I can imagine that it would be very peaceful enjoying a morning coffee or tea and taking in that view. I love tulips! They are one of my favorites.

Thank you! I never tire of looking at our garden. There’s a balcony attached to the kitchen and we have a covered bench there which is perfect for drinking coffee on the weekend. Here’s another view from summer.

Great totes!

I was wearing my Gucci Bamboo Top-handle again. Sorry, I seem to be using it every time someone asks. I also wore my Gucci enamel tiger-heads belt from 2012 as I need to extend my shopping from my closet to all items not just bag.

I had to go into Gucci to change something after a meeting (that yellow enamel and silver, cat brooch for another without the rough edge on the pin). I may have bought another scarf too just waiting for the exchange *so dangerous). It's a silk hoody basically. Here's a link (not sure what it's doing under Men's accessories but anyway) https://www.gucci.com/ca/en/pr/men/...-silk-hood-with-flora-print-p-5483134G1839272 I like that it's waterproof silk and double thickness (lined with pink silk at the top). I'm thinking that it can make all my Summer cardigans into hoodies, as you all know I hate my head getting cold.
This is beautiful, and such a great idea for summer rains in London!

Great cheerful colour!


Absolutely lovely!

Thank you :hugs:

You are soooooo well organised.

Because of the pouches? That was Mr Dawn. He knew I needed a new document tote, and saw this one in Aspinal. And then decided to buy all the little pouches that matched it! How many pouches does he think I need with a *document* tote? :lol::facepalm:

So glad you had such a nice day with your friend. I had to work yesterday so missed most of the sunshine. Such a lovely view from your window (and beautiful flowers).

Thank you very much!

Great totes! I carried my Garden Party for multiple errands, recycling my pic from a couple of weeks ago.

Beautiful view and pretty bouquet. Fantastic that you took the day off to visit with your friend. I hope you had a wonderful day.


My view looks similar to dcooney’s view - deep winter. stay warm dc!

This is a great combination!
I had a great day, thank you. And thank you for the house compliments :smile:

True! I took better shots when the sun came out. Drove around the neighborhood to get more reference photos

You live in such a pretty area. Must be very inspirational as an artist.

Wow what a spectacular view you have. I could sit there all day!

Thank you. It’s so calming.

Oh, I'm glad to hear it! My Balenciaga City in "Curry" will be back in style! :sunshine:

Yayy! That’s gorgeous. I *need* to find a yellow bag!

I almost expect a little fairy to come fluttering out of your lovely garden.

A lovely, thoughtful DH. One can never have enough pouches he he

Your garden looks amazing and at this time of year, incredible. We only put in hedges last year so although they've grown a little, still at the straggly phase.

Thank you! No, that picture is from summer. I’ll try to take a current picture when it’s less overcast. It’s more bare right now and no roses / gladioli in the ha-ha separating the first and second garden (we have three levels to the garden in the back, and one front garden) :flowers:

ooo - I love the last picture most. That would be a lovely painting!
Yellow is big for spring so you are ready! I am getting out my vintage LV St. Jacques in jaune. Glad to see the color is having a comeback this year.
@Cookiefiend I saw your beautiful box Kelly on another thread. Congrats on a super bag!
Thanks you so much! :hugs:
I am very happy with it!
Thank you!

I'm terribly jealous over your garden - it's truly lovely. Right now mine looks a lot like @dcooney4's, but it is sunny today!
 
Absolutely! I don't want to wear big pieces of clothing in colors like this, but accessories, shoe or a top are just perfect. I find that colors like this are akin to orange, which i find to be a very "happy" color.:smile:
I love citrus / tropical colors: yellow, orange, fuchsia, lime. And, I would love to wear main wardrobe items, like a dress, in these colors. The problem is I rarely find pretty, quality items in these colors. I’ll see a lime dress in juniors at Target and nothing in ladies clothing at Nordstrom. :shrugs:
 
This addresses both the what I’m wearing today question and the little discussion on Tumi. I’m traveling and this is a preferred bag - Tumi Voyageur Canton crossbody.

And actually, I’ve paired it with a Longchamp Club Le Pliage.

The Tumi cross body looks like an ideal travel bag. It's stylish, and I'll bet it's also lightweight. Safe travels!

It folds up easily and has its own silk Flora pouch, so very portable. Only time will tell how it proves most useful but it's for those days it looks warmer than it is indoors ad outdoors. It's so pretty. They had brighter coloured ones (pink or orange) too that are really for rain but they weren't silk but this one's a whole other level.
Love that it comes in a little pouch! Flora is a gorgeous pattern.
