More Dior!

Okay, okay, I know. You get that I like Dior. I just have a few more and then I'm done... well not forever but for now. :)

This is literally my favorite bag ever.
I want this so bad. I'd KILL for this bag. No literally, I would murder a person for this. Got a person who you really don't like? Buy me this bag and I'll totally take care of it. It's so perfect. It matches but it's still kind of funky. I can't even explain it. It's beautiful.

The large detective bags are a few seasons old but they're totally awesome.


The construction and style of this bag is so gorgeous. I love the shape and the details. The zippered compartment at the bottom is both adorable and practical. I love these bags.

This is aptly named the "Dior Hardcore Bag".

It's actually kind of a toned down, more practical version of my "bag-that-i've-wanted-forever". AwEsOmE!

And last but CERTAINLY not least is this cute little white number from Dior's new Lady Cannage Line.

Delish. I love the quilted look with the shape that looks very prim contrasted with the dangly letters that are more fun and funky.

If I ever win the lottery, I'm buying Dior bags. Lots and lots of Dior bags. I mean I guess i'll save some for my "future" or whatever. I'll probs donate some to charity. But mostly, Dior bags.

I [heart] John Galliano!

*GASP!* was my reaction when I was flipping through InStyle and I stumbled across a page featuring the new international line of 12(!) new saddle bags from Dior, designed by that talented, talented man, John Galliano.

China:I absolutely love LOVE lOvE LoVe LOOOOOVE this bag. The gold decoration is amazing and the dragons are so detailed. I'm obsessed with it. I also think the dragon as part of the "D" is a really novel idea. Moral of the story: I want this.

Argentina:

This bag is cute. I like the boho look. I honestly don't love or hate it. I'm tepid on this one.

Japan:
This one is also, amazing. I absolutely love it. Of course, my culture may make me a biased towards this one buuutttttt whatever. The kimono fabric is totally gorgeous and I love the color combination of the red and the black with the pastels in the kimono band. The red tassels are also a really nice touch. Yay! Represent Japan!

India:

This is kind of over the top but I think with the right thing it would be a really cool piece. I love the chain coming from the "D", intended to represent that chain that Indian women wear from their nose piercing to their ear piercing. I think this is definitely India. I like it a lot.

France:

I don't really like the pearl handle because it reminds me of those really ugly headbands you get in five packs at the dollar store, but I REALLY like the toile. The painting on the "D" and the "CD"s is interesting. I'm not really sure how I feel about it.

England:

I don't really see how this represents England, but it's a nice bag. Not my fave or anything, but cute.

Egypt:

OoOoOoOoh. I really like the stripes on the "D" and "CD"s and the gilding is gorgeous. I feel like this might be REALLY heavy, though...

America:

I'm not gonna lie. This kind of makes me think of a purse that you'd get at Limited Too or Claire's or something... but I guess that is PART of America... meh. I don't really like it.

Russia:

It's quite... furry. I dunno... it's okay.

Spain:

I really like the toritoise shell accents. I really like the flowers... I just really like this bag.

Mexico:

It's definitely Mexican-looking. I love the turquoise but I'm not a huge fan of the horse blanket/poncho fabric. It's a little Chico's (shudder)

Morrocco:

I love the tusk/horn/tooth handle, and the blue and white is really nice together. I really like this one a lot.


sigh... J'adore Dior...

you know that bag that you wanted a while ago and you actually still really want and can't stop thinking about?

welllll... okay so i've wanted this bag ever since I saw it in Lord & Taylors in the seventh grade when I was cutting through to get to Claire's or something.

I don't know why. It doesn't really fit my "look". Chances are, I would have like one or two outfits that i could wear with it and I have two Dior saddle bags and I KNOW that they honestly only fit a wallet, cell, pack of gum, and my dior addict lip gloss (i know, how fitting) and thats pretty much it. I would only be able to carry it on the weekend. Yet I still pine for this bag. I'm obsessed with it.



It's like these Marc Jacobs high tops I obsessed over in the ninth grade:


They are completely impractical, I would've probably been too scared of ruining them to actually wear them and had like one outfit to wear them with, but I even got my first (terrible, awful, excruciating) job to try to save up for them. (I never got them. By the time I could actually control myself from spending my entire paycheck, Bloomingdale's did not have them anymore.)



I know these things are too expensive and completely impractical, but i just don't care. I want them. And THAT is my life.
