which skin would you carry YOUR things in?

there are some outrageous skins being used for purses. when i think of it, it’s kind of nasty (not like toting my ipod around in a dead cow skin is any better, but at least in my mind, i’m utilizing EVERYTHING that is cow. like i eat a cow and after i eat it, i carry my wallet in its skin. i feel so one with nature, so wholistic…err.). as i peruse various bag designs, it becomes apparent that a few popular skins stand out which are called “exotics”: the ostrich, crocodile, python, and lizard skin to name a few. oohhh yucky. seriously, yuck.

the ostrich skin has these natural bumps like the miu miu one. don’t they look like acne? i haven’t touched one yet and maybe the texture would blow me away…but it just DOESN’T look appealing at all. then i think of those awkward long necked animals themselves with their tiny heads and i can’t imagine carrying my wallet in one….

the crocodile is another skin that is SUPER popular. the scales kind of freak me out. They range from super big scales to tiny ones depending on the bag (i think in terms of expense, it’s more coveted to own a small scaled croc bag because those would be the baby crocs). then i think of my one year stint in louisiana and how the crocs just swim around in the bayou and i think, yeah…let’s leave them there. i wouldn’t want to carry my ipod in one of them either.

the python and the lizard skins….now THAT’S wasteful. lizards are pretty puny right? i don’t know exactly what type of lizards are being used, but i remember seeing a few on my hikes and i think, they are small creatures…so to make a bag, one must use A LOT of lizards right? and the python? i don’t know about that too especially since i’m born in the snake year…it just seems wrong. maybe my wallet shouldn’t go in one of those either.

(top is lizard and the bottom one python)

i’m ok with the cow…maybe a goat if i ever get a balenciaga….but these others…I DON’T KNOW. they all seem a little wrong to me…ill.

shopping list

hey girls, i'm back!!

vaykay finally started for reals now so i'm searching for really shallow things to occupy my time. very, very shallow things such as:

1) red shoes because my faves are quickly meeting their death since i wear them so much

2) a snooty wallet to put in my crispy ONE DOLLAR bill

3) a nice pair of well fitted jeans for my short stature but voluptuous ass

4) nice slip on, kinda dressy black work shoes so i can strut down the halls of c.w.

5) a vacuum cleaner (not shallow, but much needed)

6) shirts for all occassions, fun or work

7) fun socks to add to my fun sock collection

i haven't gone shopping at all since january and BOY am i excited to whittle down this list. if you have any recs where i might be able to find these things suitable for moi, please share!

would you ride?


i had lunch with my coworkers on saturday. while driving back from the alcove in los feliz, we spotted this lv oldsmobile riding alongside us. what a ride!!!!

anyways, i think this lv lover takes the cake! i wonder if there's a chanel car rolling around somewhere?

finally found fantastic flats

i like the flats look, but alas, my feet are not meant for them...or might i say, my feet never found the right flats to adorn them. i've tried on TONS, but they always seem to slip off at the heel. but if i get a smaller size, they feel too tight. once, i bought a pair of black flats at baker's because i THOUGHT they would fit. what a lie!! they were cute, but when put to use, they started cutting into my toes :( bleedy toes are NOT sexy...ok, maybe not bleedy, but definitely my pinky toes looked pretty abused. i've decided those flats are meant to be used sparingly and when i'm certain too much walking won't be involved.

but i THINK i've found me some good flats!! they are navy, SEEM pretty comfy, and i can't wait to wear them for reals. i really wanted a pair of purple ones, but they didn't have them my size so i settled for the navy ones. it is probably a good choice since it'll match more of my outfits. but then again, when do the things i wear ever match?
