Current Cravings

I love Louis Vuitton Vernis so much that I often times consider buying the same bag in different colors.  It happened again last week when I was walking by the store.  I love that the Roxbury Drive is back, in PINK my faaaaaaaave.  Although I've been tempted to buy multiples, I have yet to succumb.  So chances are this won't be mine, but maybe on a day when willpower is weaker... and I'll have $1040 to spare.

I'm pretty sure I have to have this.  It's taking forever to choose a City Classic.  Love em all.  Can't play favorites, but a handbag is a long-term investment with sentimental value as well.  Never buy unless it's true love.

Really wish I could splurge on this Exclusive City Classic Craquelle, Bois de Rose $1395 right now though.  I just don't know if I love it because I've never seen this exact one in real life.  Last week Neiman Marcus.com began selling exclusive Balenciaga bags in celebration of the 10 Year anniversary of the Classic bag. It'd be nice if they would put some Balenciaga in the Copley store for us to peruse and fully inspect.  It's very photogenic, but that just adds to the uncertainty.

Christian Louboutin Rosella Damas Silk Ballet Flat $475

Unlike other Louboutins, these actually fit true to size.  I tried these on in the store and they were very light and comfortable.  They only have a bit of flex though and very little cushion.  I couldn't justify the cost, so, sadly, I left them at the store, but still think about them sometimes.  I suppose I'll just dream until we meet again, in the shoe salon.

These Giuseppe Zanotti's are the best value.  They're $465 on Shop Savanah's, but I think it was more like $595 when I saw these at Saks.  They're made of the softest leather, with a generously cushioned sole, dazzling gold studs and cap toe.  The small heel in the back is a big plus.  That tiny millimeter of a heel actually makes a difference for walking.

I almost gave in and bought these new Tory Burch studded flats today at Saks.  They have a pre-sale going on right now and these shoes are 30% off.  Original Price $275.  (It's only in black online) Also on sale at Saks were other select new shoes from designers including Elizabeth and James, Belle by Sigerson Morrison, and Juicy Couture.

It was difficult, but I managed to put them down and forge ahead towards Sephora instead.  The End.
