We're a little obsessed with gray leather up in here, and it is beginning to be a problem. It started with these gray leather boots, which I finally emptied my Boot Fund for, and which finally agreed to stay after I patiently explained that a trip to Paris might be in store. They were a mite bossy at first, suggesting that my coat and bag were not up to their soft, gris leathery level of perfection. "Not quite up to snuff," was how they put it.
They mentioned that they might not be willing to stay unless I jumped for this bag as well. I told them I could not. Could Not. Because I did not have a Bag Fund. Only a Boot Fund. And the Boot Fund had been spent. And I asked them if they knew how much yoghurt costs in this town.
We went to Cole Haan, the boots and I, and we visited the bag. Twice. And we smelled it and patted it tenderly and wished it well in the world. But, friends, the gray-leather love has not abated. I have since fondled this bag at Urban Outfitters, and considered asking a stranger carrying Hayden Harnett beauty if I could hold it to my cheek. I have yearned to slide my fingers into the depths of these buttery gloves. The madness continues, has merely been whetted.

I understand your boots' longing.
Sounds like you better inaugurate some new fund categories or re-name the original fund something more inclusive. :)
Ooohhh, bag. That is a very nice bag.
P.S. I like that the gloves are called "dark cloud."
Yogurt is indeed expensive in said town.
The boots are so pretty. I don't have a Boots Fund this year, I had a Coat Fund, but that too has been spent.
oh nice boots bootsie. nice. please to have a dinkie before you leave so we can discuss your paris fashions and where you can where them as well as a list of addresses and phone nombres in case you want some company., s'il vous plait.
cole haan boots sounds too much like cool hand luke to ignore.I am also in love with grey leather right now and am pining after the thigh-high calvin klines from last spring...but I have no boot fund, and can't imagine where I would need thigh high boots...any ideas?
Mmmm...the hayden harnett is to die for! they really out-do themselves in the wonderfulness department. and i can't believe that ebay price! i say go for it, and then don't buy groceries for 2 weeks. who needs food anyway, when there are bags to be had?
