💋As one ages, (or like as the procreative urge intensifies,) the need for multiple purses becomes increasingly important. I don’t know exactly why, but it does. I once thought, like many things when I was younger, that I wasn’t a purse girl and I never would be. I thought you were a shoe girl or a purse girl. I didn’t realize you don’t have a choice, as you age, a line doesn’t get drawn… there's only one model… a woman who likes and needs both shoes AND purses. This seems callous but it's absolutely connected.One needs an expensive, well made purse that sits on a shelf in a cloth bag AND a shit crap fun inexpensive purse you can put down on the sidewalk, on a bar stool and wipe down with a clorox wipe. The urge for nice and bad, existing simultaneously, is a feminine urge that has to be indulged… I don’t know the consequences of repressing this instinct but I assume its really horrible. We must have wrappers, Pret a Manger napkins, absolute, actual garbage in bowling ball bag-ass looking purse. EVEN BETTER than a shitty purse is an exquisite purse from the past in a coveted model-like a car. TRULY I NEVER KNEW I’D BE LIKE THIS. We must have expensive shampoo and cheap soap.A pricey candle and a pack of hanes underwear An heirloom lamp and something hastily bought from Wayfair. Its just the way it is. You must balance the high and low. This balance is essential to glamor and glamor is one of the only things left we can aspire to. True glamor is the victory over poverty and the foibles of wealthIn conclusion: that's why it's important to have expensive and cheap bags to chronically rotate in your closet.

👛I personally am such a big fan of Givenchy as a whole throughout the years, but I specifically love when Ricardo Tisci was in the house. The way he played with essential shapes and made them into staples was something I really loved and what I find very hard to do for a lot of designers. I recently went to Woodbury Commons and found that they had a good selection of brand new Ricardo pieces and found the purse of my dreams, the Pandora Bag. I got the black one with a wrinkled leather design. I think this design is so iconic because it looks almost deconstructed but is so chic, fierce, and easily pairable with almost any outfit.

🧦why do we have so much stuff, why is it so hard to clean all this stuff, why are we so excited to get new stuff, and why does stuff say so much about who we are

💻I was just thinking of this recently, of how oversaturated the internet feels. There’s too many platforms, content, and ads being shoved down our throats. I don’t know where the internet is headed but I feel like there is a growing general sentiment of fatigue.We’re also discovering ways to combat this fatigue, like lessening our screentime or simplifying our use of the internet (like this platform.) I would love to see this general sentiment dictate where the internet goes instead of the internet telling us what to consume.

I suddenly thought of this movie because Brazil (the song) started playing. I wouldn’t even know how to begin describing this and anyway it’s better to jump in without knowing too much about it, which is exactly how I watched this.
