Oh, yeah. Great shape. That would be sweet for an evening bag. I wouldn’t even mind it in patent.The bags are mostly a miss for me, but I like the closure and shape of this. I'm not a big patent fan, though.

I think I forgot to mention that I finally found a fuchsia PTTM Natasha awhile ago. It's been my only major MBMJ want for a few years and it's nice to have a bag with some color.
So how much longer will Marc Jacobs be up here in "premium" designers when most of his bags are in the same price range as contemporary designers now?
Using this little lovely today and realized I haven’t stopped by in ages. I hope you all are doing well! I’m starting a new job on Monday (my previous job was soul crushing, so excited to start something new). Health-wise I am doing well...the MS is under control thanks to my medication and a pretty drastic diet change (gluten-free, dairy-free, pescatarian), which sucks sometimes for this former cheese/hot dog/Kings Hawaiian bread addict, but given how good I have been feeling, I guess it’s worth it.
What’s going on with you guys?

Congrats on the job and I’m glad you’re feeling better. It sounds like a wonderful new start for you.
Things have been okay-ish-ish here. I was really excited to start a new job this month. Two days away from the office opening and the contract gets pulled.
At least I didn’t come here from the east coast like a few people did. Still sucks, though.
Glad to hear you’re doing well with job and health. The diet sounds like a real challenge, but if it works, it’s worth it. Dairy free means no ice cream? Oh, dear.
Lol. I still eat ice cream, but only dairy free...I am learning to love coconut milk and almond milk based ice cream. Ben & Jerry’s dairy free is super yummy - can’t tell it’s not the real deal.
Thanks.
I’m having majorly conflicted feelings about not jumping to the other side of the issue afterwards. I could have.
It was a lot of money.
I didn’t agree with the other side.
It was A LOT OF MONEY though.
Sigh.
Your last sentence is a lie
No but really what are your ice cream suggestions?
Coconut Bliss has a dark chocolate ice cream that’s super yummy. Ben & Jerry’s dairy free Cherry Garcia and Caramel Almond Brittle are really good. And Daiya makes ice cream bars that I love (chocolate fudge crunch is the best...they use pumpkin seeds in the chocolate coating for the crunch...so good).
So, while it’s not good old full dairy ice cream, I have found substitutes that I really like. I wish I could say the same for bread - there’s some ‘okay’ gluten-free bread, but it’s so expensive and just not as good as the real thing. [emoji22]
I'm not much of a chocolate or caramel girl but will try to remember to try Cherry Garcia one of these days. It's the soft texture of a lot of dairy free stuff that I can't get over.
The only really good gluten free bread I've ever had was from the farmer's market in Oceanside. They were gone and never seen again one day. I assume someone with Celiac's and a love for bread kidnapped them.
