Yay!! Postina will arrive soon! Very excited and I am very curious about your thoughts when you get her. [emoji4]
The sales are crazy at the moment! Everyone seems to be in serious shopping frenzy. Guess some are scared about a new € crisis. At least many in G are. I heard that many buy jewelery and watches.
Bummer about the discontinued LV bag. [emoji17] Maybe you find this bag someday somewhere. [emoji6]

I thought I'd be safe today....:sad:
Walked around the city.....no IPad in my bag which means no Internet temptations....:rolleyes:
I just went into ..... a book shop....
Saw a few accessories ( small wallets, agendas....), was about to leave empty handed when I saw that blue bag...Asked to have a close look at it. The shop assistant told me it was from Bandit Manchot, a French brand that uses recycled leather....
She added that another lady had asked about it and might come back later in the evening...
There was only one....
See.... danger is everywhere even in bookshops:eek:IMG_0429.JPG
I tried it on, took out my Visa card.... And here it is!

He looks wet and hungry... has he already been fed those nice stinky beef treats? Is he just annoyed at being given a bath? :p

That look says "How could you? I already had a bath this month".

He looks like he needs a treat very very badly. [emoji3]

Thanks for pup love, all:heart:
He was in "soaped up" phase, for photo.
I give little treats, as we move through whole process--but he could eat more, always.:biggrin:
Love how he gets piglet-ribbon ears, when wet & skeptical.:lol:

Normally, I use my large Le Pliage for sleep overs. But, that bag is so battered and needs to be retired. For now, the large Marcie is performing as replacement. She fits almost as much as Le Pliage, but she is wayyyyyyy heavier.

Omg, marcie officially has become an "adventure bag!":drinks:
Enjoy party. No boss is good. Bosses see to much & say too little--ruins the frivolity.;)

Mom and DD's under instructions to check HARRODS when they go.

Have they been to harrods before?
1st time is blind shock of overwhelming gleam.
They may be lost for days. Trying to maneuver through the insane escalators.
But the Christmas window displays will be fab.:tup:

Don't photo copy your butt. I don't know why American office workers do this but it's STILL a trend.

I was completely classy--& only photocopied a bare foot. Then autographed it for everyone.:whistle:
