bought a briefcase today and walking around town with this thing made me feel like I was driving a 1980s Mercedes Benz
I have a lot of vintage luggage on my eBay watchlist so I was pleased to find this
It also falls within the fascist frontier/spirit airlines personal item dimensions
as we all know, Girlbossery nonsense is OUT
but! the Business Bitch Briefcase is IN
(if anyone has any recs on where a beautiful and timeless woman could find a beautiful and timeless suit please sound off)

I have a black suitcase I got at an estate sale with a baby blue and shimmery white polka dotted interior + this burgundy train case that I keep my makeup in (it was my motherâs and she passed it on to me)! I just love the vibesâŚ

About a month ago I was at a drugstore not far from my house when something chic happened. This was surprising because the circumstances (refilling a prescription for a pill to treat a fungus on my toe) and the location (a Walgreens in Bushwick), really werenât chic at all. Nevertheless! There I was browsing the shelves when I saw this young cool woman carrying an amazing bag. It was a crossbody nylon Prada purseâI donât know if it was actually from the â90s or if it just looked like it wasâand crucially the strap was chain link, making it seem like a Chanel knockoff. I followed the woman around stealthily trying to catch as many glimpses of the purse as I could, and when I got home I started googling the resale sites and found something similar! Thank you anonymous Walgreens inspiration! (The link I put in is for a sold-out bag but you can probably find something similar if you search eBay etc.)

As one ages, (or like as the procreative urge intensifies,) the need for multiple purses becomes increasingly important. I donât know exactly why, but it does. I once thought, like many things when I was younger, that I wasnât a purse girl and I never would be. I thought you were a shoe girl or a purse girl. I didnât realize you donât have a choice, as you age, a line doesnât get drawn⌠there's only one model⌠a woman who likes and needs both shoes AND purses. This seems callous but it's absolutely connected.One needs an expensive, well made purse that sits on a shelf in a cloth bag AND a shit crap fun inexpensive purse you can put down on the sidewalk, on a bar stool and wipe down with a clorox wipe. The urge for nice and bad, existing simultaneously, is a feminine urge that has to be indulged⌠I donât know the consequences of repressing this instinct but I assume its really horrible. We must have wrappers, Pret a Manger napkins, absolute, actual garbage in bowling ball bag-ass looking purse. EVEN BETTER than a shitty purse is an exquisite purse from the past in a coveted model-like a car. TRULY I NEVER KNEW IâD BE LIKE THIS. We must have expensive shampoo and cheap soap.A pricey candle and a pack of hanes underwear An heirloom lamp and something hastily bought from Wayfair. Its just the way it is. You must balance the high and low. This balance is essential to glamor and glamor is one of the only things left we can aspire to. True glamor is the victory over poverty and the foibles of wealthIn conclusion: that's why it's important to have expensive and cheap bags to chronically rotate in your closet.

Currently have three full pages in my notebook! I guess some might call this a gratitude journal LOL but itâs different when I do it.Â
My brother was telling me about this phenomenon called âtarget fixationâ. Itâs a panic reflex that happens when motorcyclists become fixated on a singular object, obstacle, hazard (e.g. a sharp curve on a winding road) and they will unconsciously steer in the direction of the thing theyâre trying to avoid because their hands follow their gaze which leads to accidents.Â
You will follow your gaze so be aware of where youâre looking. Train yourself to seek out pleasure and appreciation! Understanding where + what you derive pleasure from increases your capacity to enjoy things which in turn makes you a more interesting person (imo). I think itâs just as important self-knowledge as understanding your triggers/trauma. It is a daily willingness to be transformed by small things.
Sorry for lecturing but I want good things for all of you.

Forgive because this where I get a little ~woo woo~ but I think you should only wear necklaces that are imbued with a potent magical vibe⌠amulets only near the heart and throat
you can do whatever you want with earrings/rings but heed my warning about necklaces
