Just shop

What happens when you realize that the bag of your dreams will remain just that? You treat yourself to compensate for your loss. I went over to Harvey Nics to visit Goyard and asked if they had the Ambassade with a skull on it. They didn't. Disappointed, I dragged myself to H&M further down and bought 8 shirts, 4 pairs of socks, and 2 pairs of sunglasses. Then when we hit IFC, I sprinted to Lane Crawford and checked if they had the white patent YSL sneaks (YSL is even hotter after death!). They did, but they didn't have it in my size. I was on the verge of strangling myself with the D&G pants that I was holding (they didn't have it in my size too!) until I saw something shiny on the display rack. It was this pair of white Commes de Garcon sneaks with silver detail. And just like a squirrel, I instantly was drawn to the shiny sneaker. Nevermind that it had that annoying rubber thing in front (the one thing I don't like in some sneakers) - it was Commes de Garcon and it was different. I figured, in a world that's invaded by Vans, it's good to have something that you know won't be sold in Greenhills.
