“Luxury isn’t the price tag — it’s the permission slip to live fully.”
Today, something beautiful and unexpected happened. It started with a click — one small moment of curiosity, and suddenly I was faced to face with a version of myself I’d forgotten to dream for. It hit me how often we keep our dreams at arm’s length…
I clicked on the Fendi website just to browse — no plan to buy, no intention beyond curiosity. But the moment the page loaded, and I saw that dark green Fendi Baguette, my eyes widened. And then it hit me… how often we keep our dreams at arm’s length.
We say we want luxury, freedom, success — but the truth is, most of us won’t even allow ourselves to look at the things we desire. We convince ourselves they’re “not for people like me,” or “too expensive,” and so, without realizing it, we quietly tuck our dreams away somewhere out of sight.
And yet, that simple act of browsing reminded me how far I’ve come.
It took years of inner work to even be aware of this unconscious pattern — this tendency to distance myself from my desires. To realize that the fear of disappointment often speaks louder than the whisper of possibility. And still, sometimes, I catch myself reverting to that old habit — to believe that certain things are inaccessible, to shrink back into the comfort of limitation.
But today, something shifted.
As I looked at that Fendi bag — the rich dark green leather, the scent I could almost imagine, the golden hardware glinting softly — I felt something awaken inside me. I remember the first time I bought myself an expensive, full-leather bag. I can still recall the feeling of pride and quiet power as I carried it for the first time. Years later, it still looks brand new — a reminder of the day I said yes to myself.
Because it was never just about the bag. It was about what it represented.
Every luxury piece I’ve ever owned has carried energy — of self-worth, expansion, confidence. When I hold them, I feel grounded in the truth that I deserve beauty, quality, and refinement in every area of my life. It’s not about materialism; it’s about embodiment.
That’s what I call Luxury Energy — the vibration that arises when you choose to honor your desires, not because you need the object to feel whole, but because you already know you are. To celebrate this moment, I created a Fendi Baguette Energy Ritual — a simple, soul-aligned practice to reconnect with your desires and embody your future self-energy:
💎 The Fendi Baguette Energy Ritual
- Visualize the Bag Fully
Close your eyes. See it, feel it, smell the leather. Let your imagination awaken your senses. - Anchor the Feeling
Let yourself feel expensive, powerful, and confident. Whisper:
“I am worthy. I am abundant. I embody luxury and confidence.”
- Place It on Your Dream Board
Print or pin an image of the bag in your Elegance & Style section. Surround it with words that describe how it makes you feel — confidence, worthiness, freedom, abundance. - Create a Mini Ceremony
Light a candle, wear your favorite perfume, and set your intention:
“This energy is mine. I step into this life now, in my thoughts, my actions, and my vibration.”
This ritual isn’t about the bag — it’s about the energy it represents. It’s about saying: I am ready to hold more beauty, more wealth, more life.
So, the next time you find yourself hesitating to look at something you desire, pause and remind yourself: You’re not browsing out of lack — you’re remembering what’s possible.
Journal prompt:
“Where have I been waiting for permission to live fully — and how can I give it to myself today?”
💛Because your desires are not random; they’re clues to the life you were meant to live.
