Bye Bye Boots, Hello Cherries!

{Leather jacket & Shirtdress - Promod,  Leggings - Primark, Boots - Buttero, Bag - LV Speedy Cerises Edition, Aviators - Ray Ban}

Taking advantage of the last couple of days' moody weather I decided to wear my brown boots out for dinner the other night. Really, the only reason I'll miss winter is boots. :) This was also a great occassion to show you my first ever designer bag, the Louis Vuitton Cerises bag (by Takashi Murakami). When I stopped smoking (for the first time :) I got addicted to Haribo Cherries, which quickly led to an addiction to cherries in general. Now I own the whole Swarovski cherry collection and this LV bag (among many other cherry items :). No matter how many designer bags I have or will have, this one will always be special, not only because this was the first but because it was a present to myself as an independent working woman! :D
Do you remember your first designer item you splurged on? Let me guess... shoes or bags? :D

  3. Great bag! I love cherry print everything too.

    My first designer purchase was a pair of Marc Jacobs pointy toe flats (maybe 6 years ago?) I still have them, although they've certainly seen better days =D

  18. Cute bag! I loved the Cherry Blossom edition that Murakami designed around the same time as the Cerises. My first designer splurge with my own paycheck was a red Prada nylon tote. It does hold a special value when you worked to pay for it yourself!!
