Lanvin Happy Square Silk Bag

St. Patrick’s Day has become every single persons holiday. On this day, everyone is Irish. Not hard to imagine why. It is a day with all the excuses in the world to drink pints of green beer and tell people to Kiss you, because you are Irish. I truly am Irish,Miumiu Handbags, although now married to an Eastern European who refuses to wear green today (bah-hum-bug). Meaghan Mahoney. Spelling of my first name is as Gaelic as they come and the last name screams out Irish, although my family has been butchering the pronunciation for years. Tonight we will have our traditional corned beef and cabbage menu, wash it down with green beer, and some intelligent little shamrock cookies which are divine. As for my green item, I am wearing a green shirt. I do own green bags, but I really would only want a pop of ravishing color if I were wearing a green bag today. A handbag that is not an everyday bag, a bag that makes no sense otherwise, and that I have found.


Every single aspect of the Lanvin Happy Square Silk Bag screams out tacky. There is the green silk, the frayed shoulder straps, the woven finish. This bag is ornate and gaudy, and by-golly I love it! Yes, you heard me right. There is a love that I have for this bag that is not just because it is green and today is St. Patrick’s Day. But this bag will be memorable. It may be remembered by some for being heinous, but it will be remembered. And that is an aspect that many bags lack. If you are going to get a bag that is a little crazy, why not get a full-blown crazy bag. The look of this bag is safe in parts, but together, it is eye-catching. The crayola green I love. And for a gal like me who wears jeans and plain tees all the time,Miumiu bags, a bright and crazy bag may just be the option. Buy through Net A Porter for $2315.


Are you really Irish too or just celebrating because it seems like a good idea?

放手的美丽

爱到痛了,Miumiu Handbags,痛到哭了,于是选择了放手。

       
放手是一种无奈的绝望,痛彻心扉,Miumiu bags。 

       
当曾经珍爱如生命的人即将相逢陌路时,才恍然大悟:原来,曾经以为的天长地久,其实不过是萍水相逢。

    曾经以为可以这样牵着手一路走下去,可是放手了才明白,一切只是两条平行线偶然的相交,当一切都烟消云散,平行的依旧平行,即使相隔不远,也已是人各天涯。
    勇敢的代价是自己先放下,承认失败,接受无奈,轻轻地叹一口气,祝福他今后幸福快乐,从此心若止水,难起波澜。

    蜷缩在角落,等待着伤口平复,体会着敢爱敢恨敢失去的洒脱。


    幸福的感觉也许只能刹那,刹那过后,是一个人的精彩。

    放手后的日子,总是落落寡欢,会莫名地为了一首歌、一部戏、甚或是一句话而泪流满面,总觉得天是黑的,云是灰的,总觉得失去了生活的意义。可是,朋友告诉我:你什么都没有失去,你只是回到了认识他以前的日子。我释然,就像烟花不可能永远挂在天际,只要曾经灿烂过,又何必执着于没有烟花的日子?
    我们都是平凡的红尘男女,挣不出爱恨纠缠的情网,逃不过爱与被爱的旋涡。心碎神伤后,是漫无止境的寂寞。寂寞吗?或许吧。但是细细体味寂寞后的潇洒,想想除他以外的快乐,想想再也不用为了猜测他的心思而绞尽脑汁,会不会轻舒一口气,感觉轻松一点?
    是真的放开了吧?可以平静的面对他和她,纵然心里有种隐隐的说不出的酸楚,可是我不再落泪,哭泣是因为一个人的记忆在心里,无论怎样也不肯散去。
    我曾经一遍遍地听姜育恒的那首《爱我你怕了吗?》,那是他最爱的一首歌:“爱我你怕了吗,眼泪你忘了吗?心在等雨在下,热泪已到脸颊;爱我你怕了吗,心莫非死了吗?再一步,也不过是悬崖。”我一次次的问自己:“爱你我怕了吗?”答案是肯定的,怕了,我是真的怕了。千疮百孔的心脆弱的
再也经不起痛入骨髓的折磨,于是放了他,也放自己一条生路,把他凝结成一幅画,深深地刻在脑海里,看着,想着,可是不会再做画中人。置身画外,才能更好地欣赏画的美丽,不是吗?
    用力地握握手,真诚地说一声:“再见,珍重!”转过头,洒脱地走掉,让背影深深地烙刻在他的脑海里。当你能够用释然的心态去回忆你们曾经的点点,你就可以体会到放手后的美丽。
         
上帝让我在错误的时间遇见了你,我哭了;但是,上帝是公平的他让我在正确的时间离开了你,你会哭吗?

Fendi Peekaboo Roll Bag

Yesterday when we were talking about the skunk fur monstrosity that Fendi has chosen to perpetrate on the fashion world at large, several commenters mentioned that the bag itself might be cute, if it weren’t for the previously stinky dead animal hanging precipitously from it. I applaud those commenters for trying to look beyond the obvious awfulness.


And as luck would have it, Fendi saw fit to make a non-skunkified version for our significantly increased viewing pleasure,Miumiu bags, and as it turns out, the Fendi Peekaboo Roll Bag is not nearly as terrible as its hairy predecessor.




As it turns out, when you remove the fur, the bag is perfectly fine. It’s not dazzling, but it has the sort of blank-canvas appeal that means Fendi could turn it into a thousand different things, just like they did with their greatest success, the Baguette. I don’t think that this particular purse will get similarly launched into the fashion stratosphere, but they’ll probably find some fairly entertaining ways to adorn it, just like they did with the Peekaboo Satchel.


It’s non-offensive, the shape subscribes to one of the prevailing trends of the moment, and they could do some decent things with it, if they so chose. Looks like I’ve found a Fendi bag about which I don’t have a bunch of hater-y things to say. Surprising. Buy through Saks for $1460.
