Croc K32/Look 4-Road To Adoption Crossover
In the spirit of great TV show crossovers (remember when the Power Rangers met the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or when CSI: Miami intersected with CSI: New York?) and the much anticipated Batman vs Superman mash-up for 2016 (BTW is it 2016 yet? I really cannot wait...
Croc K32/Look 3
I’m a relatively late/slow adapter of Instagram, and I can’t say I’m quite the addict of it like everyone warned me I’d become. After a while the sensory overload dulls all my senses and the eye candy begins to feel like a buffet that’s...
Croc K32/Look 2
I confess. I was so overwhelmed by the positive feedback I got for the first look that I am rather hesitant to post this second look today. In my head I think that’s how the Kelly should be dressed up always, but in my heart I know I can’t walk around in...
Croc K32/Look 1
I’m kicking off the Year of the Horse with a series of six looks around one bag, the Hermès black matte croc Kelly 32cm bag that I recently adopted. Please bear with me the unprofessional photography. It’s so much easier to point and shoot scenes from the...

One of the luxuries of travel is time. Time to go back to some place you couldn’t get enough of the day before or to snap that one photo of something that had caught your eye but got away. As I noted in the last entry, I had a bit of a rush getting to the...
Florence Through Rose Tinted Glasses
One of my favorite things to do in visiting any place is to find some sweet spot for a bird’s eye view of the city below. Here in Florence, that magical place is the Piazzale Michelangelo, a square high on top of the left bank of the Arno River. The piazza is...
Best Sandwich In Florence
Don’t let the title of today’s post and the picture above fool you. I’ve not succumbed to eating meat again after some 20+ years because of Florence. That’s the bronze Il Porcellino (the piglet), a fountain at the Piazza del Mercato Nuovo....
Santa Maria Novella & Santa Croce
If you had limited time in Florence and had to pick which churches or museums to visit besides the Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore (the Duomo), I would vote for the two churches I’m sharing with you today. Up first is the Basilica di Santa Maria Novella, which...
Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This
