i love them all!!!! but weird. why i choose all white.
kana tular yap jie.. dont like black bags.. bleah.

I first saw the Piccadilly (Men's version of Bayswater)
carried by Thomas Ong..early this year.
at first it looks kinda .. Tote baggish
n i personally dont carry tote bags..
i dont have the confidence to carry it n pull it off.
but after looking at it again..
i just love the croc look... and its stamped....
so you get the croc without paying the many zeros at the back.
about SGD2200. (ok i dont deny it. this is like a cheaper birkin)

the Mabel.. i think jimmy liked this
but it weighs like me...
which means it super heavy lah
u carry 1 hour u need 1 hour massage kinda thing..
but its quite nice..

Bags are like friends...
but bags make better friends... coz they are super faithful to you
n they dont talk back. n they dont annoy you.
they comfort you. and make you feel so special...
yah well thats what i think. so if u think otherwise ..zip it
or else i make u stay in ND castle for one night and you will pee in yer pants!!

well since the only ppl who r probably reading this is Ye Jie and Wu Mei.
Probably Jimmy too... or Joanne... if she is not busy voulez vous-ing... haha
but i think Wu mei is too busy humping calculator or chatting with me on msn hahahaah
Hi Ye jie!!! Hi Wu Mei!!!

sighh this is so bo liow. lets see how this last ok..
who wants to bet? 1 month? 2 months?

Sigh..

This is getting very frustrating.
I want that Prada bag but people are just making it harder than it seems...

bah..

Saw someone carrying this yesterday.
DARN... its so nice.
now I want it too.

ST !!! You better go to Euro and get this bag for me!!!

I want this now. N.O.W

NOW NOW NOW!! AAarrghhh!!
Why must it be out of stock. Just when I want it!!
GRRRRR....

My dear friend/china mistress, ECY. asked me why I haven's post anything about Bottega Veneta bags.
Honestly.. I know they are great. Their leather is soft and buttery yadda yadda. If i want soft and buttery, I rather be eating cheesecake. Yumm..
Ok now.. I don't hate Bottega bags. I just feel that their design is very similar through out. The weaving. That's it.
And they make a tote, hobo, messenger out of it. Well they all look so similar...
You have one Bottega, and I think thats enough.

And their soft buttery leather? I think I will snag them in days. Its just too fragile for me. If I'm going to pay $3000 for a bag. It better last me 10 years, cause my Prada bag which only cost me $600, 6 years ago, only stopped serving me last year.

But lets entertain ECY for now. Cause she is a dear friend.. :P
Some of my Bottega picks...


I know they have very interesting summer colors for this range. But I can't find the pics.


Oh my these shoes are to die for...


I love the details on this clutch.


Not a huge fan of Snake skin. I bet this will cost you your car.


Lets fast forward to Fall 2007.This is what I meant. Same old shape. Similar material.

some use LJ to post pictures
some use it to review bags and shoes
some use it to show off what they have
some use it to channel out their dramas
some use it to post half naked pictures of themselves
some use it to gain popularity
some use it to lose themselves and their popularity
Some use it to ask for help
some use it to ask for free information, like yellow pages
some use it to bitch others
some use it to be a bitch
some use it to connect with their friends
some use it to post the daily mundane things they do
some use it to find a partner
some use it to be someone else
some use it to find their true self.

I dont use LJ to post anything intellectual to impress my readers.
I only have 3 readers...4 sometimes..
And some journals...just gross the PRADA out of me.

Ok after you finish laughing at the Gucci.
Now this is some serious moment.

J and I were walking around DFS Scotts, pretending to be some rich young men wanting to spend our money away. Actually I was just trying to get the code number for the prada bag. (For discount purposes..heh)

I walked into Hermes, and I was politely greeted at the door, 'Welcome to Hermes'
Really service in DFS is SOO much better than anywhere else in this small island.
Shit ok I digress...

Then I was just browsing around and noticed something really familiar but I was not sure what it was until I took a second look.
I was so amazed by the sight of it! I think my jaws dropped a little.
(Maybe I'm the only one who's excited here , I have my reasons ok!)

It is.. the Kelly bag. 28cm. Paladium silver hardware. In Brighton blue!!!

Brighton blue is the LATEST as in 'THE latest' color for Birkin and Kelly range.
Its extremely RARE!!! I dont know how it got there!! You have to wait for years for this color! And most importantly it is a very very nice color! A very cool blue.
The cost: $9400.

(Heheheh sneaky me manage to steal a pic when no one's looking)

This is the real color shown on a Birkin:

I am so tempted to buy it for re-sale because I know this can fetch at least $1000 profit. But what if no one wants to buy it!??!
I'll be stuck with a $9400 bag which I can't even use!
But its a brighton blue Kelly! Anyone who can afford it will want it! Right??
But anyway I didn't buy it. Of course. I don't have $9400 cash sitting around somewhere. ( We know someone who does... )
I was told 2 japanese ladies working at DFS already eyeing for this bag.
Well who ever can afford this bag is a very lucky girl... Because this is rare bag worth investing!

Anyway.. this is the third time I saw a Kelly or Birkin.
When I have extra money. Maybe I will buy these bags for re-sale??
I dunnoo......

I was with J and Stn when we saw this last month...
We couldnt stop laughing and we kept making fun of this bag.
I still find it funny each time I look at it.
how much would you pay for this bag?!?!
It looks like they went to 'Mangga dua' and decided to copy them and yes its PVC.

I have to say, these designers nowadays, have really good sense of humor.


(Credits: my faithful Nokia 6230i. pic taken in Gucci when all the sales person are busy selling funny bags)

I took this picture with J after closing.
I hope its not agains the law.

Just look at them beauties...



I dont really like the perforated series. Its so copying of LV perfo. Cheapens the whole look. But its still CHANEL..

I complained about menswear being boring.
But I guess men are meant to be boring.

MCQ - Alexandre McQueen's new Younger Menswear line


Not too sure about the stupid useless suspender wannabe.
Imagine getting one of those straps stuck on an MRT door. hahah!
Really useless piece of design.
I appreciate the idea of young retro preppy look. but the 2 straps are useless.


D&G

What???? It looks dirty and smelly. Like its being worn by someone who just built a house.
I can almost picture Karen Walker saying, "Never seen someone with money and soap?!"


I wanna look clean. Boring? At least I'm clean.

Bottega

 oh darn.

Miss Yap. I'm becoming you!!! hahah
I dont know what to get!
and I'm trying my best to pull a lot of discount strings!
I cant possibly buy bags at retail price anymore. This is going to cost me too much money!

Bah!!!

Taiga Andrei

Price: $$$$$
Functionality: ***
Appearance: !!!!! (Looks a bit stiff and boxy, but its quite classy) 



Prada 'nameless' bag

Price: $$$$
Functionality: *****
Appearance: !!! (Canvas looks cheap and dull, but black is always a classic) 



Damier Naviglio

Price: $$
Functionality: ****
Appearance: !! (Too common, too attention seeking but it has a nice shape)


Why have I become so difficult. I'm finding difficulty in choosing a handphone too now..

Between these 3.
which one would you pick...

I like this one because its elegant and not loud. Though I find it rather small, my mom actually can borrow this one.


Jimmy pick this one because its unique, not common, and also we never had a Damier bag. But this is more expensive.. boohoo..


This one is very practical. Is the size too big?? I can't decide. But its a dull looking bag.




I cannot decide which one to get.
Is anyone going to Europe?? please!!!! help me buy the bag!!
Is there someone kind enough to just buy me 2 out of the 3 bags!??! hhaah
I cant bear the part with my hard earned money...

If you ever want to become a successful fashion designer... you need to hire great assistants.
someone who will design all your products while you just print your name on it and claim it yours.
The diffrence between LV and Marc jacobs?? same designer. different assistants!

The new blue Stam bag. The color is so beautiful.




The new spring'07 collection.
