However, I just got this large patent tote (unlike the tote pictured, mine has brass hardware). I love it. It holds everything: large wallet, two notebooks, a 640-page book (Chasing The Flame by Samantha Power), a water bottle, and any number of tiny extras like chapstick.
Because it's so utilitarian, there's nothing fresa about it, and I'm learning that patent paired with matte and more industrial-looking textures is actually quite striking.

I have one patent item in my wardrobe.
Actually, it's technically two because it's a pair of shoes... and they're not in a wardrobe but in a box of shoes. Technicalities.
Anyway, I agree with you about the fresa-ness of patent, but I believe that some good design can combat that. My shoes are men's style brogues, and they've got a flat trainer sole and I bought them in Paris, which I think cancels all fresa.
And I'm sure when you wear your tote it will be as far from fresa as can be! x
Your shoes sound fantastic, and definitely NOT fresa. I'd love to see a picture of them.
did you get a job at coach, or are you just obsessed with it at the moment?
I hope that didn't sound negative, the pieces you have been posting are marvelous
Totally, totally delicious. I find myself believing that it would taste like black licorice and fighting the urge to lick it.
John: I am obsessed, you could say.
Sarah Von: I hadn't thought of that, but now that you mention it...
Hey - I posted a picture on my blog :) xx
