Hey Cafe!
Continuing the Dries convo I successfully secured a sold out jacket from Europe to complete my velvet leopard suit. I need to get the jacket tailored as I had to size up to get one. i will wear it as a suit for an appearance i have coming up with my Nadege shoes and a black tee or top. DH will hate this look but I love it.
I'm waiting on a tee I ordered from Chanel, not the Cruise one and then I must sit tight and wait for news of H. If nothing arrives soon there's a top/sweater from Valentino that caught my eye and i'm stockpiling my NM gift cards. Very pleased with my Fall choices this year!
I have a big week but will lurk and post when i can.
Kyokei, i love the shoes!!

As I said I think those shoes are wonderful. As a New Yorker, I would guess you spend a lot of time walking? Do you wear those elegant shoes for walking or do you change into flats or sneakers? There is no criticism implied here. I just wondered how native New Yorkers navigate the terrain?
This suit would definitely be a statement outfit,
mrsO! I love when people can express their character with clothes! [emoji173]️
Thank you very much! I need to start taking a bit more risks rather than always playing it safe.
I love the color of these; it goes well with my K and my B and even will look great with my special order I think.
The heels aren't that bad! 4" but they are thick. But maybe I am biased towards high heels so I'm used to them.
Thank you!
Thank you! Congratulations on securing the jacket! I'd love to see it when it comes.
I do spend a lot of time walking. I almost always hit at least 10,000 steps per day. I don't own a pair of sneakers actually, and only one pair of flat boots (that I haven't worn in over a year).... no other flat shoes. I walk every day in my Louboutins, Manolos, etc with heels 100-120mm. A large majority of my heels are thin and I've never had any issues walking in them. Plus I wouldn't put shoes in my bag
Before I buy a pair of shoes, I make sure to walk around the store with them a while.... I won't buy a pair of shoes I can't walk for hours in since I am always on my feet. Maybe I wouldn't care about the comfort as much if I lived somewhere else and walked less.
However, it's all about what you are used to! I've been wearing very high heels since I was about 13 or 14... not designer or anything, but the height is the same. I actually find kitten heels to be hard to walk in which is why I don't own a single pair; something about the small heel makes me think it won't support me.
Hi Cafe. Congrats on your cool new shoes Kyokei and your fun suit Mrs Owen.
I finally gave in to the temptation of the Chanel slingbacks.my SA had a delivery that included the creme and black in my size. I passed on them twice before but thought it was now or never. I also picked up the last pair in grey and black. The weather has cooled a bit so I have been able to wear my jackets a bit. I'm really loving them.
I am over the Hermes leather skirt but I'm contemplating a simple dress that they have in a color that I need.
My jeans quest goes on. I found a black pair from j brand, a darker pair from citizens if humanity. I'm just looking for a more aged pair now in a straight leg style to wear cuffed. I have five possibilities coming in the mail. I tried the stores yesterday. It's a waste of time. None of the stores have any reasonable stock. It looks like mail order is the only way to go. AG is having a 25% off sale if anyone is interested.
I have a few days off coming up thank goodness. Enjoy the rest of your week everyone.

Thank you. Congratulations on your pair of Chanel slingbacks. One day I would like to own a pair of Chanel shoes.... just waiting for the perfect pair. I thought I had found them (they looked amazing off) but they weren't very flattering on me. I've also yet to find a pair of jeans that I like and wish you luck on your quest. I did buy a pair of pants at Bergdorfs two or three weeks ago. I hardly own any pants at all and still haven't worn them.....
Which Hermes dress are you contemplating?
LOL! Auto correct could be worse. Ppup' s Jelly became Jelly remember ?[emoji23][emoji23]
OK, we are twins in the shoes but I think that wild suit is way beyond me! Very fun!!!
Thank you! I have a feeling they will match well with a lot of my big cat scarves from H!
I have a Rimowa cabin trolley that I have had for 8 years. I have used it on every single trip I have taken in that time and it is great! No issues with it at all. Very sturdy. I have never checked it as it is a carry on, so if that is what you are asking, I guess I did not answer the question lol!
Kyokei, I am so impressed with your wearing heels 24/7! I recall the days when I wore heels at work, and I don't know how I did it. Oh, yes, I guess I do know, I was younger haha! Anyway, your new shoes are extremely cool and you have the vibe for them.
