Amongst sneakerheads, this +particular silhouette is quite sought after, second only to actual original Air +Jordan 1s from the year 1985. + +I couldn't get into the "reverse bred" colourway. The colour blocking just can't +compare to the original black/red design, and I always ended up wearing my other +pairs of sneakers because of it. So, I did the unthinkable, and destroyed any +semblance of resale value these shoes had by dousing them in acrylic spray paint. +I didn't put too much effort into my "ice cream paint job"; I only masked off the +bottom half of the outsole and the interior lining. I didn't bother preparing the +materials with solvents because I'm not concerned about the new layer of paint +not adhereing properly. If anything, I wanted it to be able to wear away and chip +off at high stress points in the material, revealing the original red and black +colours of the leather panels as I wear them. diff --git a/blog/content/posts/015YSLCollegeBag.md b/blog/content/posts/015YSLCollegeBag.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..0ccd439 --- /dev/null +++ b/blog/content/posts/015YSLCollegeBag.md @@ -0,0 +1,34 @@ +--- +title: "YSL Medium College Bag in Grey Goatskin with Gunmetal Hardware" +date: 2021-09-26T19:30:07-04:00 +categories: [bags, Yves Saint Laurent] +tags: [college bag, grey] +draft: true +--- + +I carry this bag by its top handle so much that I've considered many times just +leaving the chain off, but then I have to carry more than one object and I'm +immediately reminded of how useful it is to be able to carry my things in a bag +without the use of my hands. The goatskin leather makes this much more durable +and hardwearing than Chanel lambskin, which the quilting is very reminiscent of. +The full-width slip pocket on the back and the magnetic closure make this even +more functional than a Louis Vuitton Pochette Métis in my opinion, which is +another popular bag with a similar silhouette. + +I am lucky. There's no doubt about it. How else could one describe the situation +I'm in? Not only do I have the privilege of being able to spend so much of my time +reading about the quality and details of luxury leather goods just to deliberate +over which of them I should consider adding to my wardrobe's collection, but +someone actually loves me enough to not only look past what could only be observed +as unhealthy obsessions with material objects, but is even willing to go so far +as to actively indulge me in those obsessions! + +Yes, ladies and gentlemen, my boyfriend bought me this purse.
