LV accessories, for a change

Before I forget, can I mention that the LV boxes are the cutest ever - they open like a drawer!

I didn't get a belt. It's a long strap for my pochette. It seems straightforward but it wasn't. 

I've had this pochette for years (it was one of my first designer bags), as you can see from the colour of the leather (far right, below) - it's a caramel brown. So when I went into the LV boutique a few weeks ago to get a replacement for my old strap (short) that was falling apart, I asked if there were any dark ones and they said no (which isn't true, as I found out later)... I reluctantly bought the really, really light-coloured strap (short) that you see in the picture, which looks silly! Then when I was in LV again, buying the agenda (details below), I asked again ("do you happen to have...") and the guy brought me a dark brown strap (I wanted a long one)! It's a bit wider but I think it looks better than the light brown.

I actually went in to buy an agenda. Yes, I know it's already May and it's not exactly the usual time of the year to buy calendars but I'd suddenly had an urge to write stuff on paper. Actually, it's because I've had some problems with my iPhone lately - whilst synchronising (with two computers, that's the problem), I've lost data or had them replaced with wrong data etc etc... 

Sorry LV, but Louis Vuitton wasn't my first choice. Of course I went and asked at Chanel but they told me that all the good stuff comes in December. So I'll probably get a Chanel diary at the end of the year but for now... I got this one from LV. 

Happy Accessorizing

I feel like I'm eight years old again! I really like the new stationery collection by Accessorize.

These owl paper clips are so sweet!

And I like the birdcages on this butterfly pencil case (I would use it for make-up). 

And stickers! I used to have a huge collection when I was younger. Did you collect stickers, too? These are so adorable!  

See their entire collection here. 

Save the environment with poo poo paper?!

Did you know that: 

"We can make about 25 large sheets of paper from a single piece (or turd) of elephant poo poo!!! That translates into about 10 standard sized journals including the front and back covers!" 

They have greetings cards...

... journals

... noteboxes

... and more, all environmentally friendly and well, different! A portion of the profits from each item goes to elephant welfare and conservation programmes, too. Read about their purpose here.

Important: they claim that the paper does not smell! 

Would you consider buying these?
