Beige Tassel trim leather handbag Pure Collection

0

The seller refers to the color of this bag as “shell”. From the photo “shell” looks to be in the ivory cream beige color range.

This is a leather bag with a tassel adornment hanging from one of the handle loops.

Bag is said to be roomy enough to carry your every day essential items.

Based on the handful of reviews left by customers on the Pure Collection website the bag is a nice quality but the color in reality is not as it appears in photos. One customer described the actual color as “an odd peach/pink” and another described the bag as having a “kind of darker dusky pinkish hue to it”.

Other reviews indicate the bag is smaller than it appears in the photo so if you like this bag and want to buy  it keep in mind that the color and size might be different from what the photo suggests.

The $9 475 outfit and some Bottega Veneta Hobo Bags

0

Yesterday I created a set on Polyvore with a skirt a top a jacket a pair of booties and a Bottega Veneta Medium Intrecciato Hobo Bag. The outfit combined for a total price tag of $9 475.

A friend of mine suggested to me that I should start writing out checks to myself on empty sheets of paper in the amounts I need to get the things I want. I don’t really want this $9 475 outfit that badly to be honest; but it would be interesting to get my hands on it just to put the stuff on and take a picture of myself in the outfit to see how it would look on me.

I’d be more interested in the picture than in the outfit itself. So for the sake of the picture I might write myself a check for $9 475 for the purchase of the items in the following set or who knows maybe I can find close enough items of similar design to put an outfit together for under $200 that looks much the same as this outfit.

Untitled #97

Items in set

A black Alexander McQueen feathered embellished silk crepe top with a price tag of $3″ 200 a Philosophy by Alberta Ferretti Long Sleeve Crochet Fur  over coat with a price tag of $2″ 240 an Aquilano Rimondi a line skirt with a price tag of $1.190″ a paif of Alexander McQueen platform ankle booties with a price tag of $1065 and a Bottega Veneta handbag with a price tag of $1″ 780.

I still think no single pair of shoes no skirt no blouse no bag should ever cost this kind of money; but I guess for those who live the lifestyle it’s a bargain when they can walk out of a store with a jacket a blouse a skirt a bag and a pair of shoes for under $10 000.

The Bottega Veneta Hobo Bags

If you live the lifestyle and have no problem spending over $1 000 on a bag here are some Bottega Veneta Hobo Bags you might like. Some or all of these might be pre-owned.

Here’s an outfit I put together on Polyvore a short while ago to represent the outfit I would wear out today if I could just log into Polyvore create an outfit click a button and have that outfit appear in the air in front of me. How awesome would that be?

The Question

Should any item of clothing ever cost thousands of dollars?

I’d love to be able to write a thought provoking five thousand word essay on why I think no article of apparel should ever cost thousands of dollars but unfortunately I’m not that good at organizing my thoughts in essay format.

I get that the reason high end designer things cost the kind of money they cost is because there are people who are willing and able to pay that kind of money who won’t question why a pair of shoes cost over a thousand dollars or why a coat like the one featured in the set cost over $2,000. Take these Dolce & Gabbana ankle boots for example:

Dolce&Gabbana ankle booties

Okay so these boots are highly ornate. Does that justify the $1833 price tag the fact that these ankle boots have an ornate gold and bronze metallic embroidered design? If the gold is real gold then okay I’d say that as long as if you can take the gold decorations off and take them to a pawn shop and walk away with at least $1500 in cash the $1 883 price tag is justified. Otherwise why should these shoes cost more than a 60-Inch 1080p 240 Clear Motion Rate Slim LED Samsung UN60ES6100 just for an example? All the shoes can do is decorate your feet make you appear 4½ inches taller while you have them on your feet enhance your outfit. Shoes don’t offer any long term benefit. Far from that wearing high heel shoes often means subjecting yourself to pain and discomfort. At least with a tv you can watch a comedy and get some laughter out of your day or you can watch an educational program and learn something. You can create memories spending time with your family watching a movie or a ball game or whatever. There is the potential for benefit that is greater and more valuable than the benefit of having your ego boosted by knowing you’re wearing Dolce & Gabbana shoes and that you look good in your shoes and whatever outfit you’re wearing with the shoes.

I’m not knocking anybody for buying thousand dollar shoes. Some of these shoes are downright gorgeous and I get the impulse to pay any amount to own something you just totally love and want. I’m just asking what can shoes really do aside from decorate the feet and accentuate clothes; and when you consider that shoes can’t really do anything except maybe if you’re being attacked and somehow manage to get your spike heeled stiletto off and impale your attacker in the forehead how can you look at the above pair of Dolce & Gabbana shoes next to the Samsung  60 inch TV with their price tags visible and not go “wait a minute” why would a pair of shoes cost more than a 60 inch TV”?

A pair of Dolce Gabbana shoes that cost more than a 60 inch samsung HD TV

Assuming the gold and bronze are not real let’s say you duplicate this shoe exactly same materials everything but it’s a knock-off and not the real Dolce & Gabbana. Suddenly the shoe is worthless.

Animal Texture wallet

Shopping for an animal texture wallet doesn’t have to be a complicated thing. There are plenty of options for finding an animal texture wallet. Whether you’re looking for a snakeskin wallet like the Mango snakeskin wallet featured here, or you’re looking for a crocodile skin wallet, alligator skin wallet, ostrich skin wallet–you’re sure to be able to find something you like at some one of the many online retailers that sell women’s clothing and accessories.

Animal texture wallets are wallets that are made out of animal skin

If you like the look of animal texture wallets but you’re not particularly keen on the idea of owning items that are made from the skin of animals, you can buy faux animal texture wallets. Whether it’s a fake snakeskin wallet, fake alligator skin wallet, fake ostrich skin wallet or a wallet made from synthetic material designed to resemble the skin of a real animal, faux animal texture wallets can often look enough like the real thing to make for an excellent alternative to the real thing.

Here’s a fictional report about a girl who is conflicted about buying an animal texture wallet

Amanda saw a snakeskin wallet on sale at Mango.com. She really liked the wallet, but she wasn’t sure if she should buy it. Amanda wasn’t a particularly socially conscious person. She certainly wasn’t an animal rights activist. But she did object to animal cruelty, and she preferred to do the right thing as often as she possibly could. She didn’t really love the wallet that much that she couldn’t live without it; but she did like it a lot. And it was affordable. She wanted to buy it; but she didn’t know if that would make her someone who was contributing to animal cruelty. After all, people didn’t really love snakes. They were okay with snakes being killed for other reasons. So were the campaigns against snakeskin merchandise really about the snakes? Amanda wasn’t convinced. She felt like animal rights activists weren’t always noble in their intentions. It wasn’t always about fighting for the rights of animals. Sometimes it was just about being bullies.

Amanda knew she couldn’t really go around voicing such a thought as that–suggesting that animal rights activism might sometimes be more a case of bullying than a case of the activist fighting for the rights of animals. But it was hard for her to believe people cared that much about the rights of snakes. She had a feeling that under the right circumstances these same people would have no objections whatsoever to the killing of snakes. If snakes were being killed for reasons not having to do with human consumption in any way, whether to be eaten by people who eat snake meat or to have their skin removed and used to make snakeskin merchandise, activists would not pay any attention to it whatsoever.

So Amanda was conflicted. Was it really wrong to buy a snakeskin wallet? Would it really be contributing to animal cruelty?

What do you think?

If you were Amanda what would you do? If you are an animal rights activist what would you say to Amanda to convince her that buying an animal texture wallet is contributing to animal cruelty?

How to style electric blue shorts

MANGO Electric blue shorts ink blue Cortita with blue alexander mcqueen blazer balmain ankle boots givenchy bag kate spade stockings valentino white silk blouse

Our look pairs the featured electric blue shorts from MANGO with an elegant,feminine white silk bow tie blouse from Valentino. With that we would wear a blazer in a similar shade of blue, such as the Alexander McQueen cobalt blue crepe blazer. We thought a pair of stockings or tights would be better than bare legs for this look. The featured stockings are from Kate Spade. They are her spot tights with back seam. For shoes we decided on ankle boots, going with a pair from Balmain. These are the Balmain Verneuil patent-leather ankle boots. And we decided on a black leather shoulder bag to complete the look. The bag we selected is from Givenchy. It’s their Pandora Box Mini Textured Leather Chain Crossbody Bag.

Random Q & A

Can you wear shorts in the winter?

If you wear short skirts in the winter then you should also be able to wear shorts. Just wear them the same way you wear your short skirts. You can wear shorts with tights and add leg warmers. Usually as long as your extremities are kept nice and warm your legs can survive cold temperatures (within reason) as long as they are not bare.

MANGO Fitted peach tank top with decorative flowers.

Tank tops are spring and summer staples. A girl needs as wide a variety of styles and colors of tank tops in her closet as she can afford.

Some of your tank tops will even come in handy in fall and winter as layering pieces. Although, maybe not so much this particular peach tank top from Mango. With the floral adornments this will be better worn in the Spring or summer.

This is the Mango Visconti tank top. It is a fitted peach tank top that is made of 97% cotton, 3% elastane. The trimming is 100% polyester.

This tank top comes in a range of colors. Wear with shorts as shown on model. Finish look with flat sandals or fetish heels.

Questions and Answers about tank tops

Can you wear a tank top with jeans?

Yes, you can wear a tank top with jeans. In fact this is one of the more common ways to wear a tank top. A tank top under a shirt with jeans or just the tank top and the jeans. A jeans and tank top look can be dressed up by wearing pumps or made more sporty by wearing combat boots. Or you can wear any number of styles of shoes to achieve whatever look or level of comfort you’re after. You can wear a tank top with jeans and wedge sandals. You can wear a tank top and jeans with canvas sneakers. You can wear a high top and jeans with high top sneakers. The versatility and ease of the tank top with jeans look has made it a very popular style choice for decades. You’re sure to see at least a few ladies walking around wearing a white tank top with jeans in the summertime. But, you’ll see other colors as well, including a peach tank top with jeans. So if you have a peach tank top like the MANGO Peach Tank Top Visconti, you can pair it with jeans for an easy casual look.

Can you wear a tank top with a tube dress?

We saw this question on Yahoo Answers. Someone wanted to know if she could wear a tank top with a tube dress. She had a tube dress she wanted to wear but she didn’t want her chest exposed. Most of the people who responded to her said that you can wear a tank top under a tube dress. After putting some possible tank top tube dress looks together in a virtual environment, we can see this look working if done well. Here’s an example of peach tank top with a black tube dress to give you a visual idea of how your tank top tube dress combination might look.

how to wear a tank top with a tube dress

Done right you can create what looks like a colorblock dress. Hopefully the top of your tube top will stay in place. We experimented with thinner strapped tank tops and found that (in our opinion) tank tops with thin straps don’t work as well.

Random Q & A

Do you have to be skinny to wear these MANGO skinny jeans or any other pair of skinny jeans?

Editor 1: You don’t have to be skinny to wear skinny jeans. They’re not called skinny jeans because they were made for skinny people. They’re called skinny jeans because of how they’re made and how they’re designed to fit. Regardless of your size you can wear skinny jeans as long as you can find them in your size. Skinny jeans can just as easily look great on bigger girls as they can easily look not so great on some smaller girls. It’s really all about selecting a pair of skinny jeans that flatter your shape and wearing your skinny jeans with the right pieces.

Editor 2: Skinny jeans generally tend to look better on smaller girls. You don’t have to be skinny to wear skinny jeans, but if you’re trying to look your best and dress in styles that flatter you, it might be better to avoid skinny jeans if you’re a bigger girl.
