Burgundy and Brown

Blogger has just released some new templates and I am discovering that my collage images don't work with any of the designs I like.  I am going to try single image posts for the next few days while I figure out how I want my final product to look.

Knit Top: Adrienne Vittadini

Slacks: The Limited

Shoes: Gucci (very old)

Purse: Prada (Gif from Mr. Fantastic)

Necklace: Express

Earrings: Can’t remember where I got them

Mr. Fantastic is out of town and I have a very hard time sleeping when he is traveling away from home.  You can definitely see the bags under my eyes here, but on the bright side, I am having a great hair day!

I was so excited when Mr. Fantastic got me this handbag because I love the color and the size and it was just so super perfect.  AND THEN, I realized that my lifestyle is NOT suited for beautiful cream handbags.  The purse ended up getting FILTHY and I was so upset because I didn't want my hubby to think that I don't take care of my things, especially things he gives me!  I sent it to get cleaned and I won't mention the company, but it took FIVE months to come back!  While the leather looks terrific, the nylon is just not the same as when I first got it.  I very rarely carry this bag now because I am so afraid of getting it dirty and damaging it. :(

This pair of Gucci shoes was my third ever designer pair of shoes and the first pair that I ever paid full price for.  I was fresh out of college and I blew a paycheck and a half on them.  Considering I've had them longer than ten years now and they are still as beautiful and functional as when I purchased them, I would say that they were a great buy!
