It's been a busy week, dear @Iamminda, but I'm glad it's the weekend! I only plan to work a little over the weekend. I hope you're doing greatI didn’t notice the blurry picture, lol. Good to see these beauties again. Hope you are having a good week
Hi Miss Dawn! I have thoroughly enjoyed reading through your closet posts. I stumbled on it today, and once I saw the first few posts with your jaw-dropping closets and impeccable organization - I was hooked! I just had to read the whole way through
How fun it was to watch your collection grow and evolve over the last 2 years!!
) and it's all looking nice and neat

Oh, I just saw the Zoe wallet on the LV website. I know you love LV SLGs, and I think I can't resist this one. It's even smaller than the Rosalie! I shall send a link and not so subtle hint to Mr Dawn...
Be still my beating heart
). The Zoe wallet is super cute but I think I need to stick with my ZCPs (or CC coin purse). I hope you like it and get one soon. Have a great weekend Miss Dawn.Congratulations! Wow this is such happy news! It's good you know to take care of yourself and enjoy the rewards of all your hard work!Not purse related, but I feel like I need to buy something soon-ish to celebrate how well things are going at work at the moment.
It's been absolutely hectic and I'm working insane hours, which is sad
But, here are some of the things that have happened in the past 2 weeks:
- I have been given a very prominent slot in an industry conference next month. It's basically all a lineup of CEOs, and then pipsqueak Dawn. I am equal parts terrified and thrilled.
- I got highest speaker rankings at a course I chaired this week.
- I did a bunch of really scary meetings in the Caribbean and presented to the Board of my client. I've been asked to join their Board meetings to provide a direct line of advice going forward. To my manager, the feedback my clients gave was that I am "superb", "stupendous", a "consummate professional" and a "star"
- I went for coffee with the founding Partner of my firm yesterday and he says he only hears good about me (I've never worked directly with him). He says I have a unique skill set and that I should make Partner in the next batch of promotions, in about a year. I'm not sure I believe that. It's too fast!!
I'm only 31. I feel a bit scared that I'll burn out, but I'm really enjoying the buzz. I progressed very slowly in my career to begin with, and I've been very sad about some things in the past 5-6 years, so I'm very grateful for this element of my life running so brightly at the moment.
I thought I'd write down here, because my friends (
If only I wasn't so tired all the time... Must work on my work life balance!!
Dear Iamminda, Mr Dawn heard the hint (?) (request?) (order? )LOL, Mr Dawn always hears your “hints” loud and clear (unless Mr Iamminda
. He brought the rose ballerine Zoe for me, and I was so excited by how pretty it was. Unfortunately it was just too dinky. I couldn't even fit my small edit of cards in it. So I am sticking with my Chanel zippy coin purse and Rosalie coin purse. We returned the Zoe. I did a lot of window shopping along Bond Street today and I've shortlisted a few other things to (maybe) purchase instead 
Dear Iamminda, Mr Dawn heard the hint (?) (request?) (order? )
Which CC coin purse do you have dear Iamminda? I know you have a lovely collection of LV ZCPs
. What a bummer that the Zoe didn’t work out. Oh well, there will be other new pretties in the future. Hi Miss Dawn. Are you working much this weekend? Hope not. It seems Mr Dawn is so in tuned with your needs (for luxury goods and everything else
I have a black CC lambskin quilted crossing (chevron-like) coin purse. I like the way it looks a lot but it is a tad smaller than my ZCPs (so a little less ideal...but so pretty to me).
OMG!! Cant wait. Heading out to lunch now and hope to see your new pretty when I get back. I am bursting with excitement for you.
I found my pretty!!!!
I wanted to buy something to celebrate an event I'm speaking at this week, as well as another pay rise and bonus, but I was planning to buy something relatively small like a pair of Chanel shoes.
I had shortlisted a pair of shoes last weekend, but before committing to the purchase I thought I'd wait till this weekend for the new collection.
And there was a very very special bag in this collection...
Just bought it
Here is a picture of me carting it jubilantly around London. Will wait to unbox until my excitement settles down a bit
It's unbelievably beautiful and unique (I think). Very happy
). 
)Thank you both, my dear friends.
I have not unboxed my gorgeous new Chanel yet...
But here is a picture of the box lurking in my roses when I brought her home!
Two reasons for the delay.
1) I am wondering whether to unbox now and wear to my important event on Thursday, or to wait until after the event to unbox it as a celebration?!
2) If I wait to unbox until at least tomorrow, Mr Dawn will probably have bought me fresh flowers (he often wakes up before me on Sundays and buys flowers, and occasionally croissants
I think I will sleep on this important decision of when to unbox my bag and hug it
(Yes, I am a ridiculous and frivolous person
and flowers. Have a great night and a fantastic week ahead
