So I found your channel because I buy Escada for my work wardrobe. I have 4 jackets that are slightly vintage in style but can be integrated easily into my modern outfits--that said the blue iridescent embossed snakeskin print leather jacket got a real eyebrow raise from my fiance. I made a few mistakes early on not understanding measurements or my proportions, but I am glad I never got into buying handbags. I have a brown one, a black one, and an evening purse that matches all my evening outfits which I rarely wear, and that has saved me a lot of money I expect! I love your jacket. That said... during lockdowns I started shopping online due to boredom and must stop now as well. I don't need any more jackets!

It's really good that your Escada Jackets are easily integrated into your modern outfits and you minimal number of bags work for you. Bags can be so expensive and money wasting if they don't get used. I also made mistakes not understanding my proportion, now I find out that cropped Escada jackets work best for me.

I think it's very interesting to hear what wearing a skirt/dress means for you! For me, I feel quite ambivalent - I like the idea of wearing a skirt or dress, but find it often very impractical in life, you just can't move as freely, but it looks good. I recently resorted to stop buying any more dresses or skirts, as I rarely end up wearing them. Whenever I want to go out and look nice, I mostly choose trousers as I want to feel comfortable at the same time. But seeing other women donning their summer dresses I envy them, I often feel this is a kind of femininity that is out of reach for me, as stupid as this may sounds.

Congratulations on your nice vintage bag. I used acetone, cotton buds and baby wipe, carefully. But I was not happy about the result, because the sticky black substance is bag lining mixed with mold, after cleaning the canvas underneath still looked grey and smelled moldy. So I cut the bag lining, left the edges which connect to the zippers, I used new fabric with similar colour, sewed a new pocket along the edges. Now my bag has a clean pocket. Maybe I should do a video to explain that, I repaired 3 LV bag by myself, not professionally nice job, but make them useble again.

Thare are so many amazing things on the seconhand/vintage market, which I can hardly resist to bring them home, that`s why I am doing Low-Buy Year instead of No-Buy year. There are 5 item I could´t resist this year so far. They are well made, beatiful, some are over 40 years old and still in great condition. For me these old goodies have soul, they are way more better than poorly made new stuff flooding the market. My shopping triggers are: when I feel tired, stressed, or I need to treat myself, I strart to browsing online. When I see a good deal, well made items, or something bring me new knowledge like the Collier Campbell scarf, I buy them. What make you buy more thing than you need? What kind of thing you cann't resist?
