In love with my new Mavic Air.



I've got one of the budget ones whose name I can't currently remember but I just don't get chance to play with it. How are you enjoying it?

It's very addictive and easy to fly. The image quality is great. I still need to go out of town to get some better views.





"Sport" mode is insane.

Glad you're digging it! Wish I had more time/will to go and fly mine.

It's only small but I finally picked up a Battlefield Friends shirt I've been meaning to get for a while.



I also donated towards SiL's short film project. Go give that a looksee!

Somehow, someway, what I really wanted for the holidays showed up on Bergdorf Goodman. I had to get it (only 1 left anywhere), so I gave them one more chance to redeem themselves (God help me if they screw this order up!):


Gucci - Midnight blue silk cashmere scarf with regimental border and dragon




It was returned for some reason (probably too big) and was 60% off.
Spoiler
Original price was $1,225.00 !

Interesting to note that the two pairs of Gucci gloves I sent back never went back on the site...

Santa is gonna match that Gucci velvet dragon hat like a boss man.

I also ordered Shout Factory blus of Elvis, The Thing, Body Bags, and Village of the Damned. That collection is all but complete.

I forgot to mention the other day: I actually got what I ordered. They need to keep it up to keep this customer ;)
I put the scarf in the Bergdorf Goodman box that I kept from the previous order and put it away with a "Do not open until 12/25/2018" note on it. 5+ months from now and I can wear it along with the dragon hat!

Along with a possible Gucci Dragon black pebbled leather wallet :o

Ok, loving the dragon scarf. :)

I love the Gucci dragon themed items, just don't like how much they cost. Then again, it is Gucci.

Btw, the scarf is so soft and the embroidery on the dragon is insane quality. The hat (previous page) is, well, it is the coolest hat ever. Going to be a happy holiday season indeed!

I feel ashamed, literally the only designer anything I own is my watch :laugh:

Like I mentioned before, luxury designer apparel and accessories vary greatly in quality. Louis Vuitton and Gucci make a lot of really crappy quality items (for the price range), while they can really deliver quality (like the dragon scarf and hats I recently purchased) if they try. Many people just want the name and forget about quality.

If I had a pile of money to create a closet of new wardrobes and accessories, I would go directly to Giorgio Armani and forget everyone else. Well, maybe some Givenchy. ;) GA quality is tops in every matter of the word and holds its value.

Creed - gold leather pocket atomizer (.33 fl oz) filled with Millesime Imperial cologne by Creed



For those who don't know, Creed (France) is the one of the world's most prestigious and luxurious cologne/perfume makers. They have supplied royal families with scents since 1760. This some serious scent right here, that certainly cost lots of cents.
Spoiler
This was a special event item at Nordstrom for today only, $250 overall  :o

After using two sprays, I can say this maybe the greatest smell ever, and lasted for eight hours. Stunning. Absolutely stunning. I gave my mom a tiny sample bottle of a Creed perfume (can't remember which one), and she said it smelled like something a Queen or princess would wear, I said "Well, you got it right on the nose".

Here is a link to their website: https://creedboutique.com

Boy, if I only had a dime for every time dad said that.  :D And it too lasted for quite some time.
