Luxury?

I'm going to go ahead and state the obvious by saying that I absolutely love fashion... but I love things that make fun of fashion a tiny bit more. Like my new paper Birkin right here. Don't get me wrong, walking through the made-up, fake paradise that is Thailand, the knock-off bag culture gets really tiring, really fast. Exhausting almost, especially for someone like me that indulges on the satisfaction felt when I hand over my credit card to pay for something that is new, exciting and just outside my price range. Well you've all seen the episode when Carrie attempts to buy a knock-off bag on a side alley in LA.

This bag is by a newly discovered, fantastic Thai brand called Wonder Anatomie. And although the paper Birkin is a direct Hermès copy, I see this more like an ironic tribute to the designer tote that make girls like me think investing 3000+ on a bag is money well spent. My new tote cost me about 100 pounds which surely most of you still think is way too much for a paper bag. I just could not resist the thought of how much confusion, laughs and double takes this one will end up causing.

I still have a few Thailand post planned, not too much going on in my life here in London at the moment. There was not a day where the temperature would have dropped under 30 degrees, but I insisted on wearing my new Nicholas Kirkwood boots I won in a sample sale just before Christmas. From the hundreds of pairs I was clinging on to I allowed myself only one pair, and these where the ones that felt right for the moment. I would much rather wear them with something more city-like here in London, but they deserved a more proper introduction than to just to be photographed on my desk. Super tricky to get on, semi uncomfortable on and impossible to get off. But ah they look PERFECT.
