This Nora person knows what she talking about....although I wouldn't mind accessorizing the shoes with the perfect clutch

Charisma, hehehe

That is confidence right there

* OK then! What appealing trait in a woman would the perfect clutch represent ?

* Nora says:

Outfit = charisma

Accessory = smile

Heels = confidence

* Charisma, smile, and confidence---those are 3 appealing traits in a woman right there.

* So what appealing trait in a woman do you think  the clutch would represent ?

Rev

it will ooze elegance and sophistication

Riya:

I think you nailed it---I like that trait in a woman---ELEGANCE.

* Elegance is synonymous with charm, gracefulness, sophistication and class.

* I always viewed Audrey Hepburn as an elegant woman and this is what she had to say about elegance:

* Once again, nice pick Riya---I'm impressed. The trait I had in mind was "Serenity" ---but I like "elegance" better.

BESPOKE MEN'S SHOES

 The allure of Corthay shoes

READ THIS GUYS:

"It is totally impossible to be well dressed in cheap shoes".

Pierre Corthay is one of the best shoemakers around, but is not well-known outside France. Trained at both John Lobb and Berluti, he has a pedigree from possibly the two most respected shoemakers in the world, for quality and design respectively.

Like Berluti, he has used some innovative marketing and eye-catching designs to gain attention across France. And he has gradually acquired stockists in Japan, Germany and the USA (Leffot and Bergdorf Goodman). If he were owned by the giant LVMH, he’d probably be as big as Berluti already.

Some people like pretend they rich. Fact me rich. We family drink down 2000 USD cognac. Mr Skeldon you want some?

On the internet anyone can claim that they are rich or whatever they want.

THE LATEST TREND IN HIGH-END LIQUOR IS BLENDING THEM TOGETHER

  Grey Goose VX is 95% vodka and 5% cognac

Why are liquor purveyors doing this? According to Bon Appetit, it's clear they're trying to market their products to a younger, hipper, primarily female demographic "seeking the next new party drink."

Rev

Iman not in de female demographic.

Arrite! The December 2014 issue of Architectural Digest arrived in the mail today:

* CELEBRATE ART---There are some nice artwork in this issue. I'll post a few later.

Rev

One on the artists featured in the December 2014 Architectural Digest is Tom Wesselmann.

Wesselmann began the great American nude series in 1961 and continue to feature the female nude in every series of paintings and sculpture throughout his career.

HERE IS "MONICA NUDE WITH MATISSE 1002":--->featured on page 133 of the Dec 2014 Architectural Digest

* That Tom Wesselmann sculpture presides nicely over the master suite.

MORE ARTWORK BY TOM WESSELMANN

* Any man who is disturbed by Wesselmann's artwork is a raging homosexual---homos tend to be misogynistic---they hate women.

HERE IS WESSELMANN'S "MONICA NUDE WITH TULIPS 1989"

It's getting cold---SWEATER time.

HERE'S THE BERLUTTI SUEDE-TRIMMED STRIPPED CASMERE SWEATER

Berluti uses contrasting textured knits along with varying colours to give this sweatshirt its striped finish, demonstrating a considered approach to craftsmanship. It has been made in Italy from pure cashmere, and contains a black suede trim on the shawl collar in reference to the firm's background as a leather specialist.

OK! Some of you said the Prada hiking boots posted earlier in this thread was ugly.

But no one with a sense of good taste will call these boots ugly.

HERE IS THE BERLUTI BRUNICO VENEZIA LEATHER BOOTS

Berluti has been in the business of crafting bespoke footwear since 1895, and these shoes are based on a design that was originally made as a customised ski boot. The details that have been carried into this new version - including the strap across the front and rubber soles - give them a handsome, sturdy finish.They have been crafted in Italy using the firm's signature Venezia leather, and each boot is hand-polished for a unique mottled finish.

What does being rich have to do with my life? I cannot take your name(JB) to the grocery store and get free groceries.

Did you ever compare your $2000 USD cognac with your piss and find out if they are the same? Stop parading as a fragile female. Take your pasties of and be a real man.  

THE SCENT OF CHRISTMAS--JO MALONE VANILLA & ANISE CANDLES

This makes for a nice Christmas present.

VANILLA & ANISE HOME CANDLE

 

A modern story of vanilla.  The fragile vanilla orchid forms the perfect counterpoint to the oaky caramel-rich vanilla bourbon, spiced with star anise.  Warm and enveloping.  To uplift, to wind down, or simply to add an air of luxury. Transform the atmosphere with luxury and opulence.

Vanilla is considered an aphrodsiac...watch with the heart...doan over do IT.

* Oh rass cainsta! Thanks for the heads up. My favorite ice cream is also vanilla.

Anise — or Pimpinella anisum, also called aniseed — is a flowering plant in the family Apiaceae native to the eastern Mediterranean region and Southwest Asia

* But seriously, that anise is a nice aroma. Next time you guys buy candles get one with the anise aroma.

AMONG MY FAVORITE CHRISTMAS PRESENTS

You can't go wrong if you buy me socks.

This three-pack of Paul Smith socks make use of the bold patterns and bright colors the brand is known for. Comprised of two striped pairs and one polka-dot style, they make a dapper addition to formal outfits.

* Hmmm! I never had anise tea before. I'll have to check it out.

Prince of Peace brings you all the natural benefits of Ginger and Honey in their special blend of Instant Ginger Honey Crystals. Instant soluble, convenient, and has no artificial additives. You'll love this sweet and spicy flavor!

* Recently I had a slight cough and my sister gave me a couple of boxes of that Ginger Honey crystal tea. I liked it and would highly recommend it. She paid $4 a box.

I originally went for the Merrill boots but settled for this instead, the cadillac of boots.   http://www.lowaboots.com/catal...mid-g+/2106380493/10

* EXCELLENT PICK!

Rugged and highly insulated, this classically designed winter boot is built to withstand bitterly cold conditions. A terrific choice for back country snowshoe touring.

* I like what I read----it withstands bitterly cold conditions----I may have to get one of those cadillacs.
