x marks the spot.

Ooh la la - The very words that I find myself uttering when my senses are tickled and the very words that make me question my sanity... Since when did I become a pretentious French artisan whose expressive vocabulary stretched as far as meaningless nonsense. Yet I find myself repeating these 3 words like a broken record intent on expressing my daily cheap thrills with four letters o-h-l-a. Ooh la la (I cant help myself) - the very words I muttered when I caught eyes on the PVC litter of Kolor + Porter. Man bags, fedoras and vests (waistcoats) are usually met with a quiver of fear and repulsion. However, these man totes (shiver) don't come with such a bitter aftertaste my taste buds are accustomed to whilst browsing the look-books of the benign. The reasoning behind my acceptance? PVC in sage green & cream with a good measure of cowhide is far from ordinary. Ooh la la - does X mark your spot??

What a cute and simple bag!

I much prefer these to the majority of bags made for women, which I feel are usually over-designed and often tacky. Who knew that PVC could look so good?

KC said...

simplicity at its best. look at that camel on white combination. can you say timeless?

Hi,
I just skimmed through your blog and I must admit, I'm quite impressed. It is rather rare to stumble upon a blog in which it's creator excels in certain skills (cough cough) writing. I enjoyed it. New follower.
