Neighbor

Every year my neighbor sets up her house to sell goods that she designs and sells from India. India is her home country even thought she is an American from Chicago.  During grad school she met her husband a Scottish man raised in Paris.  Anyway I got this bag this year.

Mon Amie Louis



Don't get excited I did not get another purse just a refill for my planner.  I did look at the purse I want but Brussels is so expensive it is 100 euros more here then and France.  We will see maybe I can sell some blood or something.  Joe thinks that 2 purses is enough...you can never have enough Louis.  (ps honey how many bikes do you have?) Not to mention when we move back to the US there is no way I could get one there.

Greek Baubles


Here is my finds from Greece.  On our way to dinner on Saturday night a cute old man was selling jewelry that he made on the street under a street light on a card table with a satin table cloth. (he was setting up at 8:00 at night)

One is Rose quarts the other is turquoise.  We got a bargain on them...it would have been 10 times the price in the US.

magazine

I got my new Town and Country magazine and noticed this page of Greek goods.  The funny thing is that I didn't buy any of the evil eye stuff but now I wish I did now. 
 

But now i can pick one up in LA :)

oh my

A tourist I saw last week in Athens.  I don't have a clue as to what she was thinking of when she got dressed. Maybe she forgot to put her skirt on?  She is totally sans underwear.

dress


If the dress looked like this on Michelle that would have been fine.  Notice the highcross over the bust.  After this i will be done chatting about this.

plain jacket

One boring black leather jacket 
Add one funky patch 
Now a one of a kind jacket. (which my husband now approves of- he hated the plain jacket) the black's really match in this photo they look like they don't.
