Sculpturific Bagisms

I cannot ignore to look at the beautiful structure and colour of this bag.

Antigona is not an everywoman's bag. I used to be the owner of one but sold it because a bag is like a love-story, and if it isn't there it just isn't...

However, I think this will Givenchy look stunning on various people and perhaps it's a good hint to leave this page open for your partner who is still debating what to give you for Chrismas...(only if it doesn't result in debts, ofcourse).

Lazio-ism and other (de-)shopping

My blog seems to be about travel and near-nude men lately, but no worries, I still like shopping.

One of my greatest surprises this week was seeing my coveted Isabel Marant's Lazio's in the largest departmentstore of or little country.


I was stunned how much I liked them. I saw them on Columbine's Smile and already thought of them as supergorgeous, but only fit for model-like calves and not the kind of legs I have.

However, with the not-so-boyfriend jeans I was wearing they looked even better than I imagined.

Gosh, how am I going to justify spending € 700 on a pair of boots?

Well, by selling my Givenchy Antigona (hopefully, but here's the link)

If you follow me you saw those ridiculously happy photos of me and the bag (here)
That was the fantasy 

Reality was: I wanted to hurl the bag to some people ridiculing me making photos with the tripod, and I disliked the fact I bought a bag that is not-really-me that I wanted to throw it in the canal afterwards. 
(that probably won't show on the photos...see, I'm a reasonable actress).

(I don't have angry-issues, btw, as long as the world is one sweet-soft-nice place. Ehm, yeh...my therapist says I'm in denial)

Anyway, I don't hate the bag anymore but I feel it's too cask-like and I feel too pretentious with this bag. It's just not love and I could make someone else happier with it.

Antigona

pronoun

Greek Mythology has some weird stories. An infamous one is probably known by everyone from the scholarly to the not-too-fond-of-school crowd: Oedipus & his mother complex!
From that marriage (after killing his dad) they had a daughter and everyone knowing the Greek Gods will suspect that she didn't have a happy life.

What the heck does this has to do with fashion? Ask Riccardo Tisci because he called my new bag Antigona!!!

Thus, I have a adopted daughter that, I hope, can give a better life than the one destined in the mythology!
