Purple Is for Luddites

My blogging productivity is about 1/100th of what it could be, as my computer is in the shop and I’m relegated to a miserably slow wi-fi/laptop combination chez moi.

But enough complaining (and explaining).

Although I thought I was safely beyond reach, I’ve been bitten by the purple bug.

I’m craving a purple dress, shoes that are black or brown with purple inlay, and, most of all, this Miu Miu bag.

It reminds me of prehistoric post-it notes—just the thing for this technology-challenged blogger.

  1. I want to ruffle its little purple flaps.

  2. I'll have to 'desire' with you. I saw a bag just like that only in tan brown. I was dying to get it but thought better of it in the end. Now with this purple number I will have to serious consider...

  3. Wheee! A lot of the ruffledy stuff this season turns me off, but that bag is lush. Good choice.

  4. Being a Luddite isn't all that bad. I've been one all my life. AND I have a purple bag. I'm really enjoying it.

  5. Purple is the new blue! (And I, for one, love it. Though I only call it aubergine - to be snotty.)

    Everytime I see a chichi bag I remember your experiences with chichi bags not living up to the hype (and not being as well made, often, as they should be). Will you try again??

  6. If I were to order this bag, I'd have to make sure that there isn't a shoulder strap in addition to the top handle. I don't like that combination!!

  7. I agree a shoulder strap / top handle is no-no but are most bags made like this when no likes it?
