<caroule great beautiful scarf! but it's sooo incredibly expensive! like 800 Euros or something! crazy!

 

[michyed]

caroule - I love your scarf!! I've always been such a fan of LV scarves

 

[caroulemapoule]

leiwen, I'm glad you can keep the secret

jomarlushka, thank you so much! And yes they aren't cheap. But it was 'only' €485.

michyed, thanks! I'm a huge fan too, wouldn't know what to do without my scarves.

Don't know if this is really appropriate in this thread because I don't recall ever seeing luggage, but I just purchased this T. Anthony duffle for an upcoming weekend trip:

I really need to start accumulating some real luggage - apart from the boring Samsonite I take on flights, I've been carrying the same L.L. Bean bags since middle school.

Great purchases on this page! iLovecouture - I love the Fenton Fallon collab. But I love everything J.Crew - I'm such a sucker for their styling and pretty much everything Jenna Lyons does. I've gotten a few desperately needed new things (two pairs of dark denim jeans, casual tops) from shops around the UK but their websites aren't so great so I can't post pics.

However, attached are my recent purchases from J.Crew! I've been wanting this chambray shirt since they first came out with it awhile back and it finally went on sale.

Thanks all - I am excited about the necklaces b/c I know I will wear them a lot. It was definitely worth the money, plus I got a discount b/c I am a student!

Meg - love the purchases...I am sure you are pretty excited about NAP carrying Jcrew since it is harder for you to get in the UK!

 

[Meg]

Yes - I am excited! I'm not excited about the mark-up though. Right now if I want JCrew I try and send it to my mum's home in Florida or else suck it up and pay the customs fees. It's not the same as the bricks and mortar store though - it would be nice to take advantage of a student discount!

got this nümph eos pants and they are great!

Barnes & Noble sent me a 15% off coupon in the mail today, so I chose to use that on the new edition of Helmut Newton: Sumo. I wish this were the original giant version with the awesome Starck stand, but alas, I would have needed an additional $14,900...

(pic from intermixonline.com)

^Love the Kiki top!! And C/E denim is my fave.

Whilst at Target for oranges, I also picked up the red leather moto jacket from the Zac Posen collaboration. I hadn't seen pics of the collection beforehand, so I was really surprised to find this little gem.

I wasn't able to find a pic online that really does this jacket justice - it's such a gorgeous shade of lipstick red, and (minus the cheap-ish cotton lining) the detailing and quality are really surprising for Target.

I bought this Louis Vuitton Speedy wallet. it's the big 800$ one, not the smaller 600$ one. I'm logging into the internet from a cafe now because my internet is down.

but, I'm going to post the picture, i'm biting down on the wallet in the picture, my hair is slicked back, i have a hat on, gucci sunglasses and a dolce & gabbana shirt on.

I just ordered these items online from nastygal.com

 

[caroulemapoule]

I went to a fleamarket this weekend, and I got these Acne wedges for only 300 DKK, which is around 50$. And then I got 10 sterling rings.

 

[Boots & Perfume]

I LOVE them Ditte! And don't worry, I wouldn't know what to do without my LV scarves too (i'm still desperate for a pale rose or a fuschia rose print version)
