Saffron ,'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I didn't pay $500 for it. CBS did.
The bag is beautifully constructed, will carry half a dozen hardbacks plus everything else I need to carry, and will last forever. But I don't pay that kind of money for bags, either, except luggage.
I am asleep on my feet. Must stay awake.
Name things you would spend $500 of someone else's cash on if you then had to appear in public with it.
I'll say: Helmet, uh, blazer, shoes, crackberry, coat/jacket, trousers. Hmm. I'm not very ornamentation-oriented, but I have one of the Fellowship cloak-clasp type pins and get compliments on it all the time (geek identifier!), so I suppose the right piece would work.
My floor is a graveyard of murdered handbags, filled with receipts, half empty tins of mints, and lip glosses.
You've obviously seen the inside of my walk-in closet.
That's great, Deb. Not the exhausted part but the new hair and bag part.

Ooh, I'm jealous. I want. I also want an Arwen pendant. (also a geek)
PMM, if you check in later, what was the hair dye you recommended? I found a color on there that I really liked and wanted to try it. But, I forget what it's called.
Naturtint! Whole Foods usually has it.
Slept through Deb, drat it! Want to see peektures!
Cannot understand $500 for a bag, but can understand slightly over $100, as that's the mark where you start to get really well made purses that last more than a year when abused used by me.
(I paid $10 for my purse, but I was buying it off a friend, and it cost her $160 new about 7/8 years ago, as my One True Purse style--basically Wallet on String with Pouch--isn't in stores at the moment.)
Why must you stay awake, Deb?
I wouldn't carry a bag bought with $500 of someone else money because--well, then people might think I was the kind of person who would spend $500 on a bag. And all my Puritan ancestors are screaming in outrage at the concept.
Unless it was something I had to carry for work or something and everyone knew it.
I want the kind of job that requires me to carry a $500 fabulous pink bag.
Not if it involves Mary Kay, though.

Suspect Jilli does, too.

This I can understand. Something that looks pretty cool, can carry a lot of junk, and lasts.
