I was browsing online the other day (procrastinating, if we’re being real) and I stumbled across some stuff talking about their jewellery. And while, yes, you see generic “Women’s Women jewellery” (like, seriously, who wrote that description? lol), what *really* caught my eye was the potential for like, *custom* clips and stuff. I mean, imagine getting something truly unique, something that screams “YOU” but also has that Bottega Veneta subtle-but-chic vibe.
See, the thing about Bottega Veneta, even just from those little snippets of text, is you get the sense they’re not just slapping together some bling. They’re all about that artisanal heritage – which basically means fancy craftsmanship, right? – and blending it with modern aesthetics. Which, in plain English, probably means they’re using cool materials, like silk crepe (fancy!) and recycled sterling silver (good for the planet *and* looks good, win-win!). And, obvs, everything is stamped with their signature thingamajig.
But back to the custom thing… I’m envisioning designing my *own* clasp or maybe even a whole necklace. Maybe incorporating some of my grandmother’s old beads (because sentimentality is my jam) with Bottega Veneta’s sleek design. Think of the possibilities! You could even, like, design matching clips for your bag and your shoes! Okay, maybe that’s a bit much, but still!
The real question is, though, how much would something like that *actually* cost? Probably more than my rent, let’s be honest. But hey, a girl can dream, right? And maybe, just *maybe*, if I win the lottery, the first thing I’m doing is commissioning a totally bonkers, one-of-a-kind Bottega Veneta piece. Something so over-the-top, it’d make even the Kardashians jealous. Or, you know, something tasteful and refined. Depends on my mood that day.
