Mary-Kate at Sundance


You'd think this is a post about kabillionaire MK and her icky hair, but, it's not. It's about me (hey, it's Sunday). When I see celeb women the first thing I check is the hand bag. I can't help it, it's a sickness. It used to be about shoes too, I spent most of my adult life in hot high heels..the higher the better, but, I wrecked my feet and now I'm all old and stuff so I wear ballerinas, clogs and flat sandals. I still wouldn't be caught dead in sneakers and I don't own the Winehouse stinko flats with no sole (yuk), but, you know what I'm saying. So now it's all about bags. I have that bag..well, not one I spent 1000's on, like her, but mine was about 45 bucks and it sucks. Those metal handles are not comfy and it's a bitch to get into. The color's nice though..still, I blew 45 bucks on a piece of shit. It makes a nice wall hanging with the rest of my huuuunerds of hand bags. Some of mine are antiques, some are garage sale finds. I want to be buried with them, but, I'd have to buy three plots. Heh. What's YOUR fashion obsession?

I'm a sucker for bags too. I get a new purse about every 6 months or less! Big, then small, then big,then small. I have no idea about brands or names or anything other than if I like the look of it. I have purses and bags laying all over!

Purses and shoes are definitely a weakness, but I find I'm particularly smitten with hats! To quote Monty Python, 'people aren't wearing enough hats these days'!

My hair, coats and bags that go with.

I'm petite so I like to create a taller look with my hair, the right coat and of course, the bag's gotta look great with that.

I hate shopping as a petite so if I can get great coats, I don't have to have a great assortment of regular clothes underneath.

Surprise, like many women I am crazy about bags too. But only genuine leather. Hey I bought a new one today (gray)!
I love shoes and boots too.
And unmentioned here yet - scarves!
And lingerie.

I have a nice D&G mustard colored bag I got in NYC last spring. I love it. Soft as butta'. Get tons of compliments on it. My daughter stole it & hasn't ever returned it even tho she now has a pink one of her own. Canal Street knock-offs, you can't beat 'em! They still aren't super cheap but you can afford several at a time usually! Sooo fun. Tiffany earrings & necklaces, Chanel jewelry. If you lose it you don't wanna kill yourself either! I love all the fab colors you can get now. She just bought a big,grape colored bag this weekend. We can't get enough of this, you can never have too many bags, NEVER!!

I have a weakness for jewels ;o) I could open up a Tiffany's except mine aren't that expensive.
