do or don't... the 90ies...

after seeing this picure of the adorable harper seven i was that close to order a pair of dr. martens for me...

i need new boots for the coming f/w season anyhow - so why not jump on the bandwagon and induge some 90ies spirit...
back in the 90ies i once had boots - similar to the dr. martens (dockers - if i remember correctly) as i couldn't affort the originals with my pocket money...
but honestly... for me, the 90ies were a disaster - fashionwise...
i was wearing 'baby-spice-girl- inspired outfits (and hairstyles!!??)  *ugghhh*
so i haven't ordered yet... but i am still playing with this tought... of me wearing original dr. martens... :.)

ebay – my personal experience…

currently i am selling some stuff on ebay (to reinvest the money in fancy & expensive designer bags :-)) but somehow i have the feeling that my ‘ebay-selling’ never runs smoothly…
as i am not a frequent ebayer i am very often lost due to my missing technical skills.
e.g.:
request: can i buy the dress of your auction directly for a certain price.
me: sure!
… and then i was quite lost… how to set this transaction up correctly?1
that i receive the money and that all tasks are presented accurate…
as said: that always happens…
anytime i try to sell stuff on ebay i am very euphoric, but then – always – things pop up and i am total frustrated and it really makes me total unsecure! i don’t know why?!
i am only relieved when i received the money, the buyer received the item and the reviews are done.
but until that – i am a bundle of nerves…
you don’t want to know what happened when i tried to sell my iphone on ebay.
i did sell it – sure, but that was as well connected with huge e-mailing and workload…

so far so good – one item sold (hopefully the execution will run smoothly… just received the mail that sth with paypal is not working *ugh*) and three more to go……..
i think i am just more a 'buyer' than a 'seller' ;-)

i am officially hooked!!

ever since i bought my first expensive designer bag bag in June – i am absolutely addicted!!

back in june i spoiled myself with the michael kors jet set item chain tote in vanilla :-)



(which is not that expensive, but was a huge step for me!)
i had an eye on that bag for quite a while but never could make a decision about the color…
that is btw. my main issue with buying an expensive designer bag – i can never decide about the color!!
so… back in june i got slightly panicked that this bag will be sold out… so i ordered!!!
first i received the notification that it was sold out… and i thought: great – now that i made up my mind and finally ordered it is sold out.
i had no high hopes, but one week later a huge (really huge!?!) package was placed at my porch.
there it was… totally chic and clean, and i was immediately in love!
before i had the ‘the more the merrier’- attitude when it comes to handbags… so i have quite a collection of handbags in every color, every shape… mainly form h&m, zara, accessorize, etc.
but ever since the mk-experience i am no more interested in those bags (or to be more precise: to buy bags at h&m & co). i always think if i save that money, i can spend it for a designer bag ;-)
as you can see now i am hooked and addicted!

as mentioned i always have the color issue… the bag has to match the outfit… etc. and vanilla is not a color for the season ahead…

now I just ordered the stella mccartney 'falabella' in light grey… ooops…



and hot on my x-mas whishlist is the marc jacobs 'too hot to handle hobo' in black…

PS:  every time i run around with my mk bag – i notice a different behavior:
- on myself: i totally take care of the bag (e.g. i don’t put it on the ground)
- on others: when they give you an approving once over – i know it is mega-superficial, but somehow i receive a different perception…

want some...

recently i was about to clean out my closet and i found a few things that i haven't even worn once...
so i thought it's about time to get rid of them.
but as this stuff is still in very good condition (as said... somethings not even worn once!) & as this stuff is quite nice (designer collabroations with H&M) i will put them in ebay!
have a look if you like!
