My husband is like that too, except he doesn't like to go to the mall at all. He'll take me and then just wander off when I go into Neiman Marcus or Chanel. He gets irritated if he has to wait a longtime or has to come with me into these places.
Yeah, I think my husband is allergic to shopping. If we are in a store and I ask him if he wants something and it would be very convenient to get it then, he would rather leave. He won't give an opinion on anything I'm looking at; he just wants to leave. He also prefers to just drop me off at the mall while he goes to play poker.
 
I can’t wait to see. If it helps at all, I’m loving my new YSL camera bag. It’s not a shape I’ve had before but I definitely will add more going forward.

It’s role reversal over here. I HATE going into the mall and shopping while Mr. S likes to go. So, he is usually half dragging me to stores for us to try on clothes (I’d rather take toothpicks to my eyeballs). It’s not so much that he loves shopping. To be fair, he’s very efficient when we go. But, I still am just not a shopper. I need a genie to drop things I can wear in my living room. :lol:
I likely won’t get it for a while. But, it will be fun when I do!
Once my husband bought a jacket that was too small. It was the first he tried on, but he didn't want to try anything else on. He could have just taken a minute to find one in his size. He wore that jacket for years, always complaining about it being too tight.
 
beautiful shirts, I love Brora! I've purchased 1-2 cashmere items from them every f/w season since 2014.




same I carry my phone, keys, and credit card only when i do venture out for grocery shopping. When i get inside i sanitize everything.

my stats for march does not have much activity since working from home the last 3 weeks.

During lockdown/shelter in place, I am staying positive, i get up, do yoga, shower get dressed put on makeup, as though I'm going in the office to include taking a work bag with me in my home office. I'm trying very hard to stay positive. especially with the doom and gloom reports from back home NYC, and the news(i've started watching the news less and less) TPF, you ladies on this thread, and others have really helped me to stay upbeat. I'm really worried about my family especially my mom who is a nurse at an NYC hospital, has been on the front lines, and she's showing flu like and cannot get a test to rule anything out as officials are denying her testing due to shortages. I try not to view the footage of what is happening at her place of work because I break down in sobs when I do. With that being said i appreciate you guys company and of all the pretty purses on here! :flowers::heart:
I'm so sorry to hear about your Mom. Shocking that she cannot get tested. She is one of the brave souls on the front lines… she absolutely deserves to get know if she has COVID-19 or not!!!! Not only for her own sake, but also for the sake of the rest of your family, and also her colleagues and her patients.

I love your idea of putting on makeup and a nice outfit every day. I'm with you on the outfits, but I haven't been able to gear up on makeup. Most days I just put on lipstick and sunscreen, since DH force ourselves outdoors on daily walks (even when we're feeling frozen in place).

The eye candy on this thread is lovely, isn't it? And everyone here is so warm and supportive. Glad we can be a slight distraction for you. :hugs:
 
Thank you momasaurus, Sparkletastic and papertiger. Papertiger, your words are so sweet :heart: I am thankful my kids have retained a sense of humour while staying at home and having their world turned upside down. We laugh a lot. My older son was coming out of the washroom this morning and said guys, there’s a problem with the toilet, it’s smoking ...

Same!! They are stubborn and I think want to please on their own terms. It's interesting. But thinking about myself, I do tend to get him things I like but that I think he'll like too. He usually likes them a lot more than I like what he gets me. For Christmas, he got me a cooking class and tickets to the ballet. Things we can enjoy together! I like that a lot more even though I did tell him not to get me anything big and that was disappointing. I was hoping we wouldn't spend money and I don't need him to spend money on me since I usually spend it on myself.
Those sound like such creative presents!

Does he win, at least? :biggrin:

That is incredibly beautiful!!
Thank you - Aline Honore is one of my favorite H designers - I love her work.
That's fabulous! My kinda shape, my kinda colour.
Thank you! The shape reminds me a bit of the Plume - I thought this might show me if it would work for me or not... and I do really like this. I added an exterior slip pocket for my phone - which the Plume doesn’t have - and I love it!
MM outdid himself in that Flor pattern. I've never seen anything like it.
I was supersaturated with handbags when he released it, so I held myself back. Regrets…
It really is lovely, I am so pleased with it. I didn’t have a gray bag, this is just different enough to make it interesting. I’ve seen a Penelope in a dark blue Flor... it is gorgeous!
 
My one gray bag - Massaccesi Juliet Midi in gray Flor
