passion is in fashion

1) Bottega Veneta light grey woven hobo

Have been a fan of Bottega ever since reading that Tomas Maier dropped the H in his given name in order for his name to appear entirely symmetrical.  However, I don’t think intrecciato goes easily from day to night and is very high maintenance.

2) Juicy Couture Eau de Parfum

For this, I am even willing to overlook Juicy Couture’s responsibility for the rise of stupid rainbow-colored velour suits.  Love the tuberose and lily notes.  Smells so fresh, young, and a little old lady-ish all at the same time.

3) Fluency in German

If only this could be bought with just a few thousand dollars.
