Because I always see you in the Gucci forum I didn't now you were such a Chanel gal. Your collection is really well edited, you really understand what suits and works for you.

Thank you, papertiger. I have fallen hard for Chanel the last couple of years. :smile::heart:

Thank you! You do have a great collection. I think I need one mini in my collection although I can tell they are going to be addictive.

Loving everyone’s outfits from yesterday.

My pleasure, and you are right, they are addictive and they can also be hard to track down....which makes them even more alluring for some reason. :heart:

That question made me panic too. I realized "ohhh noo. I don't have a perfect bag. I thought i was done shopping. Thought even if I am not done buying everything I want, I at least know what I will be getting. I will have (for me) the perfect collection, but it will be missing 'the perfect bag'. How could I have overlooked the perfect bag????"

Haha, you are too cute, Cordie!

Dress-up Thursday for 'quick' pop-in to H and Aspreys with proper afternoon tea sandwiched in-between and then visiting my mother (in hospital but mostly for tests).

I've had this fur-lined jacket forever but now regularly using it, still really quite cold here. I even did my nails and put on lipstick on today (though stupidly I banked my lips out)

Love your jacket! And thank you for reminding me to do my nails. They’ve been bare for too long.

Glad to hear your mom’s doing better!!!

@gracekelly, I love that cardigan on you! And the scarves are beautiful!

@Dextersmom Wow, your Chanel collection is fabulous! I love the red with camellia quilting. Feminine and flirty!

@Genie27, you continue to look fantastic. :) That jacket!!!

I have some good things going my way for once after what seemed like a relentless string of terrible terrible things. (DH’s brother with aneurysm and stroke, dear friend diagnosed with breast cancer for the second time, to name a few)

After months and months of job hunting, DH got a call this morning offering him the job he wanted!

My ultimate holy grail is out for delivery! (Will post photos as soon as I break open the box, heh heh)

Yesterday, I fell in love with a csgm in a print that I never in a million years thought would look nice on me! (Pique Fleuri)

And finally, i have the day off!!! I’ll probably drop by the H exhibition that opens today.

Sigh... what a great day. I hope it’s as good for you all as it’s been for me!

Yes, grateful is the perfect word! I am so thankful that my loved ones, while going through a tough time now, are ultimately going to be OK. I’m grateful DH has the job and I’m grateful for the little things that give me some joy in my life.

Thank you! I’m trying to branch out to colors outside my comfort zone. I’m getting more comfortable in turquoise!

So good to see you back here Joanne! The scarf is lovely on you; I hope when you wear it you can remember it as marking a happy turning point and occasion. So sorry to hear about all these awful things that have happened as of late - you deserve this day off to focus on yourself and your happiness!

I’m sure many of you have seen this in the last purchase thread over on the H forum, but wanted to share a couple of pics here too, just in case! Introducing my new work bag - GP 36 in Bordeaux vache country, accessorized with courvetures nouvelles vichy twilly! Also picked up a skinny belt in rouge grenat/noir with rose gold mors buckle since I think it’s the perfect subtle belt to wear with trousers to the office. I won’t be unboxing anything until my graduation in May, so please all pray for me to resist the temptation of having unopened orange boxes in my house until then!

I also learned something very interesting about Hermès’ rose gold - it’s a lot less pink than many other rose golds because there is less copper in it. H has actually procured a design patent for this formula! IMG_8336.jpg

Also I think I might have found my next bag (does it EVER stop??) when I surprisingly fell in love with the coated canvas herbag in black! Such a sleek looking bag at a fraction of the price of the Kelly. I never liked this bag before with the uncoated canvas, but this changes the game for me!
