I'll wait a little longer. It's not May yet anyway ;-) I still try to keep myself under control. Btw, I'm wearing my black Miu Miu heels in. I bought them last spring and practically never wore them because they didn't feel comfortable enough. Now I'm wearing them at home to stretch them into the right form. I think it's working... The shoe as such is gorgeous and has the right size, it's just so "stiff". |

I agrree with Ta-ta. That said, I do not find coral to be very classic, but if you love it it doesn't matter.
What miu-mius is it that you are talking about? Would love to see them! Me: probably not going to stay withing my 10 items. Hoping for 15 instead, and then I'll try do to better for fall. Suddenly a lot of the things that has been on my list for ages has appeared, and since I also do have money ATM, it would be stupid not to get it. Latest news is that I finally ordered the perfect bag. Can't wait for it to arrive. |

@Betinapple: I think coral is my new red. I noticed that while I like wearing red, I got more compliments when wearing something in the coral / tomato spectrum. A slightly softer red. I think it compliments my skin. So I guess coral is a classic for me since I own a few coral items that have worked for years. So I'm not worried about the color, more about the lace
![]() I'm sooooo curious to see your new bag!!! How is it? Can you describe it? Has it arrived yet? Where did you order? Awwww, the excitement :p |

![]() It's black structured bag with pale gold hardware. Classic yet with a retro touch. Perfect size and made to function as a work bag (has a build in space for a laptop, papers and everything else) so I can use it if I should have to carry books around again some day. It's from a relatively unknown brand (to me, at least) called Milli Millu, but it is not on the website. I can't wait to get my hands on it. Hopefully it will arrive today, since I'm so excited I can barely wait. |

![]() I am going to return/exchange the black pants--wore them, and they just aren't flattering. What is really disappointing about this is that before my two pairs of jeans wore out, every pair I had (4 total) was from the same label. So are these pants, and they don't fit well, which makes me fear the brand is not going to be a standby for me any longer. I looked at their website, and what they're producing has changed, so it appears that they've changed direction. This is the kind of change I'm not a fan of ...

![]() Regarding coral: I'm not even sure whether the kind of color I'm talking about is actually coral ![]() Betti's bag: Wanna see it! I didn't know Milli Millu (sounds a lot like Miu Miu) but I looked at their page and they have some nice bags at decent prices! Seems like a good choice!

![]() It is the Copenhagen model, but in black (not featured on the site). I think I will be very happy about my choice. I'm just very impatient at the moment. |

Betinapple: That's funny that you liked their Copenhagen model. I was immediatly attracted to the Zurich model... they seem to have thought something when they gave those bags their names
![]() You know, I have the same fears about the 100% nylon. Will I ever really like something that is 100% nylon?? Hmmm... not sure. I'll wait. You know, I'd really like to have another dress and a cardigan this season but somehow the cardigans and dresses don't want to show up ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Well, coral is the color of coral ![]() I have my doubts about the nylon too. I think I'd want to see it in person ...

Here she is, my gorgeous bag
![]() There's seperated rooms for a laptop, papers, cell and all the other things I carry around. Each pocket is marked e.g. "My things", "My laptop". So cute. |

Betinapple: That bag looks very classy and still very practical. Looks like a very good investment, congratulations!
I think I keep my hands off that dress (the coral lace dress) for now. The only place where I can find it in my size is the DvF online shop. I don't really trust all those online shops out there anymore. I want to stick to the few that have been good to me (mostly net-a-porter and maybe I might try slowfetch eh farfetch again). But with all those other stores you never really know whether the return policy really works. And I'm not really ready to take that risk with 100% nylon. |

@Floodette: thanks a lot! And yes, I think it will be able to live through a hard life of carrying all my stuff AND books when I have to carry those again.
It is kind of hard to photograph the inside of a bag, but you can see a picture here http://www.millimillu.com/shoulder-b...openhagen.html @RedandNavy: thanks a lot! I think I will be very happy about it. I wore it yesterday and it worked perfectly even with a heavy load. |
