Ahoy polloi (an island for the masses)

[Mariapia]

[emoji7] Nice! I get the slight impression that red is one of your favorite colours? [emoji173]️
When does the bag arrive at your place?
Hehehe. Sometimes all of a sudden all wishlist bags we have been eyeing for ages are on sale. That's why I am avoiding all sale sites and the bay at the moment. I am already determind to add a LC Cuir in neutral at one point next year. And that's not the only bag on my wishlist. [emoji16]

I had sworn I would avoid all websites..
That bag ( in another red and in black) was not on sale on Monnier Frères , I thought I was safe....Why I paid a visit to Yoox is a total mystery to me.
The bag ( yes I love red!) is supposed to be delivered at the end of the week but as it's coming from Italy..I don't think it will be here in 2016...

Talking about 2016... this morning I heard that Madonna, reacting to George Michael's death ( after Prince's and David Bowie's) had exclaimed " Can 2016 f.... off NOW?"
I couldn't have said it better....

What neutral are you looking for, Ludmilla?
If I see one during the sales period, I will tell you....

Ludmilla, I found myself trolling for an LC Cuir myself. Luckily I didn't find on on sale or I would have pulled the trigger.
Mariapia, that red is just awesome! Such a pick me up in dreary weather.

Thank you!
Hubbie is off today so I must take him to see the latest Star Wars movie. Hoping to get to some shops as well!

Merry Christmas to all you ladies in this wonderful island!! Every once in a while I sneak in, you know. [emoji7] Hope you don't mind. [emoji6] Especially when you post your lovely bags!!!

Hello, msd_bags!

Today is day of the cousins. More cake and candy. [emoji513][emoji514][emoji507] And the rests of the goose. [emoji490]
Hopefully, I will get the two project coats back. My cousin took them a few weeks ago to alter the sleeves and the length to make them wearable again. Very curious about the results. [emoji38]

Would love to see coat results! Very exciting--your cousin is brilliant seamstress.

I have just had a look at my Yoox wishlist and found there was an extra 20% off ( + another 10% off with what they call a missyouten code) on a bag I have been eyeing for a few weeks
What could a girl do?
I didn't even think.... I used the add to the cart button .... and here is a pic of the bag....
Alexander Mc Queen padlock satchel... in red, of course!
I got if for €451....

Oooooooooh, skull padlock!
Excellent choice, my friend.

Talking about 2016... this morning I heard that Madonna, reacting to George Michael's death ( after Prince's and David Bowie's) had exclaimed " Can 2016 f.... off NOW?"
I couldn't have said it better....

Agreed--2016 has been weird mix of elation & tragedy. But still felt...off.

 

[remainsilly]

Aw, time of not understanding why everyone is tired of playing, "throw new turtle toy."

And my style jumble for today:

gripfast boots(thank you, Boot Fairy),
hermes vicster & deadly ponies razzle scarf.
Lug sole screws complement bag's hardware, imo. But, then, I've never been quite right.

I am looking at this one:

Undecided about the size. It is called neutral or camel I think. I'd love to have it in the small size like my navy, but also in a bigger size. [emoji85]
Not sure, if this colour goes on sale....

Hope you have fun at the movies!

Coats look great now. Going and try to take a pic tomorrow. It's already dark outside.

Haha. The screws do complement the hardware on your bag. [emoji41]
Poor dog. But, turtle works perfectly as a cushion. [emoji4]

Yes, Ludmilla! That colour goes on sale. I know a site with great prices during the sales.
Let's wait for the sales period to officially start and they will have Cuirs, I'm sure.
I bought my Quadri , my neo and my pink crossbody from them
I will keep my eyes open for you and Murphy.As for me, nothing, absolutely nothing, I swear!
Big sigh!
Don't forget we are waiting for a pic of your coats!

The sales start on Wednesday January 11th...

Lucky you!! Congrats on a great deal!! I really love mine (in Birch color). This bag works so well for me!! If I saw this deal I would probably have gotten it too! Wear her in good health.

My psychic abilities must be evolving.
Had strong feeling that you might
choose a brown tone...

(brown bags are cool)

Merry Christmas to you!
Don't be a stranger [emoji173]

Merry Christmas, vink.

Ah, the night before Christmas.
And have returned to find an ICE CREAM CAKE & CANDY HOUSE!!!!!!!

Let me knock gently on door.
With my fork.
To see if any sugar is at home...
View attachment 3556569
Jackpot!
Hooray, Christmas.

Merry Christmas to you Vink!

Merry Christmas, Vink!
Please do stop by more often! [emoji173]️

Thank you you all for such a warm welcome. And that house look very yummy, RemainSilly.

Today is "day of the goose" and more family visits and looking at Christmas trees.
Before leaving the house for my aunt's someone wants to say "happy Christmas morning" to all islandes.

That bag is soooooo pretty. It is easily one of my prettiest bags. [emoji7]

Such a pretty photo! Everything is really in a holiday spirit!

Action-tail photo--new toy from Santa!
It makes 3 different crunchy/squeak noises. All freaking day.

I'm sure he'll enjoy it and that turtle will be happy for all the love he receive.

It's meant to be. And yes... GM's news come as a shock. I did found some comments on the news about his death online about one of his most famous song is "Last Christmas " and he died on Christmas Day like he spent that as the last Christmas, too. I know it may not fit everyone's taste, but I find the observation very interesting.

That photo of him using a turtle as a pillow look very comfy. And I like the sole of your boots! I just retired mine last year thinking I won't get to go to cold places anymore. And now we're booking a trip to go to somewhere with snow. I don't want to shell out tons of money for shoes I'll only wear for a couple of days. I think I'll end up just wearing sneakers. But I just miss miss miss mine. (Should have been more indecisive in getting rid of it. )

Does your navy work well? Lately, I've been navigating toward a smaller to medium due to weight. If the navy is working well for you, maybe you should get that size? Unless you really want it to be big just in case, otherwise, it may end up being too big. (been there done that myself. )

I love Alexander Mc Queen bags. Monnierfreres Frères have a Legend in Cognac, 50% off at the moment ( the black one is not on sale) it's a GM model.
