I found my unicorn…sort of

Some years ago, maybe 2006 I saw this bag, which I thought to be the most beautiful Louis Vuitton bag I had ever seen in my life, more so for the fact that it didn’t look like any other LV bag I had ever seen. I saw it once, and I never saw it again; until today. Well, sort of. I saw it online, but I have a name now and I will continue my hunt for this beauty!

Here she is, The Monogram Vernis Fluo by Robert Wilson.

I know its bad to like covet thy neighbor’s stuff and whatnot but it hurts my heart that “erDRwife” has this many bags of this collection. Can I just have the hotpink clutch? Please? 

Contact me if  you or someone you know wants to get one of these babies off your hands.

From Chicago via Steph…and some others

My pal Steph DT. took a trip to Chicago and brought me back photographic souveniers, which I love, since we basically live on opposite sides of the country. She has a great eye for finding unique treasures. 

 

My grandmother recently gave away a huge bag of hundreds of scraps and full sheets of felt. If I had seen this before, I might have been more inclined to have her keep that bag.

I am Guatemalan, therefore she of course took this photo to show me these sort of PSA posters in Chicago, for Guatemala. I don’t quite get it but, hey, maybe I will be the next Guatemalan to make a difference, even if I am in the states  ;)

 

In other unrelated news of not really news, I found this image that I had stored a long time ago from I believe Antiguadailyphoto.com, an image of a Guatemalan cemetery from dia de los muertos (celebrated much differently in different parts of latin america, than in mexico)

and another of the GIANT kites flown in honor of day of the dead (Don’t know where this one came from)

New Dior Joaillerie “Kings and Queens” Collection

Sweet Holy Jesus, this is beautiful. I mean it really is fit for royalty, maybe rockstar royalty but royalty nonetheless. As with all the joaillerie, I’m sure this collection is pretty pricey, but hey, a girl can dream *sigh

 

Have a Great Tuesday!
