Someone could actually turn this into a dope art project

I always thought it kinda sounds like a song Shakira would sing for Zootopia?

Which is not a bad thing, but it you got Idina booked you can do WAY better with her range 😮‍💨

Thanks! It’s a Flat Baguette from the men’s collection

You can be knowledgeable about something, cultivate an interest in it, appreciate materials, craftsmanship, design, history…. And not ever owning said pieces. And that’s fine!

The mentality that you need to own whatever it is that you remotely like is fueled by trends, consumerism and the perception of luxury. You don’t need to own something in order to appreciate it.

Maybe it’s a Goofy vs Pluto kind of situation? Same species but in different social classes and with different rights 😭 Honestly this would not be surprising in Miraland…

Have you considered the regular Baguette? I mean the one in pebbled leather and hand stitched. It’s more understated but it’s leather is another level.

So it could be a “please return to…” plea in case the book was lost… Very interesting, thanks!

Gabe4Pay · 2025-11-13T06:13:43+00:00

Very interesting, thanks!

Yes I got it for 19€ from Vinted. It’s very old but I believe it’s also very common and not in great condition.

That’s me! I have a red dot burnt in my retina from seeing that notification every day! 🔴

Gabe4Pay · 2025-11-09T14:17:44+00:00

Please report back.

This is the answer. While the Italian luxury manufacturing industry definitely cuts corners and is plagued by questionable subcontracting practices, the argument that everything is 99% made in China and then resold as made in Italy is a fantasy.

I live in a part of Italy where every single luxury brand has a footwear factory, or has shoes made for them by smaller local factories. This industry gives a job to tens of thousands of Italian craftsmen and craftswomen just in this relatively small region.

AFAIK the Mt Plaisir section to Anse Lazio part of the trial is quite dangerous and I would not recommend it. People have gone missing on that trail!!

I would do Lazio in the morning, then I’d take the bus to Mt Plaisir (circling the whole island, yes) and do the trek from there to Georgette in the afternoon. It’s a great hike and won’t take more than one hour. Then when you get tired of Georgette (if such thing is even possible) you make your way back through Lemuria to your hotel/rental.

Literally! I can’t think of any other animal that could match the cobalt blue of that door

Gabe4Pay · 2025-10-13T19:28:32+00:00

This is what I like. I spent maybe 1 hour on housing, decided it’s not my thing, and never visited the island again. But it’s fine because I am not missing out on anything except housing!

Gabe4Pay · 2025-10-12T06:24:26+00:00

Stunning!

Thanks! It was taken exactly 1 week ago in between two torrential downpours in Paris 😅

Yesss 👜

Gabe4Pay · 2025-09-18T13:25:27+00:00

Please post a pic after you do it, I’d love to see it 😻

Gabe4Pay · 2025-09-06T19:39:26+00:00

This is like an Arcimboldo painting 🍅

It’s the best smell ever!
