More Pictures of My bag, sweater and my black heels!

More pictures of my bag, sweater and my black heels. Got them with my Darling No 1 at Bugis Junction.

Took with my camera...

This is a gray top is extremely long and snug. I got it from The Little Voice at the corner of the main  Bugis Building on level one. It was the first clothing that caught my eye, since I started my shopping yesterday at Orchard. Got it at $28.80 and it has designs near the cuff and the sleeve. We saw a similar design on level 2 at a shop call Cotton. It was slightly more expensive ($1?) with a different design. But I liked mine more.



Oh this was the paper bag that came with it. It is worth a mention because the paper bag was sew and not glued together.The brown half K design is the trademark logo of the shop.


This is my black heels. Doesn't look very high, does it? It gives me at least 2.5 inch of superiority (yes, talk about ego) and is just as classic as me. (yes, yes, I hear you).


This pair is again similar to my Mary Jane (remember her?) But with heels. Yes, I do love heels. This one comes with some sort of pleats and make them look just abit more feminine than my normal choice.

Oh and yes, I want to share something. During my shopping these 2 days, I realised I have never shared (not even with my close friends) how I choose shoes. There is a certain technique or certain quality that I look for.

Will write another article on this.


Well pictures of my bag! As you can see, the bag has a very simple design, no frills or pleats. But it is definitely very shiny. Yes I do love shiny stuff. (Just need to repeat myself *grins*)



The bag, when left alone on the floor.


Opening it up abit wider...


Another picture...


This is how it looks like when I hold it up, back view.


Top view of the bag, when I hold it up.
If you can see, the blue card is the "tag" that came with it. No, not price tag.

View from the front, when I hold it up. (The bag has a zipper pocket and obviously, the front does not.)

Another view. As you can see, I am using flash. The light bounces off my hand and casting a shadown on the floor.


Another view. Just to show you, I put in my old Sony Erikson handphone, K750, into the pocket. Actually all you can see is the dangling thing that I hang on it, (the green jade and the red string).



Front view of the bag, when left alone on the floor. The bag folds itself quite nicely, cover the folds of the zipper. It is a good design, I must say!



The bag is really nice, relatively soft to the touch and really light. Will weigh it tomorrow. Anyway, the bag is really my ideal color too (and shine). Only thing that I found (to my dismay) is that it is not waterproof. According to the blue tag (that came with it), the designer wanted it to remain un-treated for water proofing, so that the natural shine and texture will remain. Well, I was abit concern, since I am the sort who will go into the rain just like that!

But I am naturally like that. So even if the bag really spoils, I guess, I will just accept it.

Oh one thing I learnt from the sales person (I kept her waiting, as I told her I will be back after dinner) was that you should never, ever wash (leather or not) bags. I did not know and I think I did that to one of my charles and keith pvc black bag and it became so tattered that I had to throw it away. If only I knew then!

My bag...

I got my bag! 

Went shopping with WL yesterday and got a bag at 50% off from Takashimaya.

Some pictures taken from my magic.

By the way, I am surpised to see the pictures here at all. Normally when I send the pictures to my blog from my mobilephone, they have to be uploaded separately (aka manually) before they appear in the Blogger Editor. Now it automatically appears in my blog! 

(Honestly I haven't really tried sending photos directly from my mobile to the Blogger Editor for a few months now, because the last time I tried a few months back, I had to do it manually. I was using Chrome all along. Suppose this function just started working for Chrome or Win 7 or Draft Blogger?)

The bag has nice metal design, which is the secondary attraction point for me.

The thing that caught my eye was the size of the bag (not too big that I cannot handle. needed something that can be manipulated easy in a crowded train during the peak hours), the texture (glossy smooth bright brown), the design (simple bag that can be expanded to put 3 normal-size tissue box inside, I haven't actually tested it yet, but will tonight), the weight (WL said it is super light weight for its design), exquisite finishing (I like the buckets and what nots)...

Sending you some pictures before I take with my camera. 


I am so happy with this bag :)

Bought with my first pay (oh well, sort of like first pay, since it isn't the first time I got my pay from this company) and it was an unexpected find.

Actually I was searching the sale racks for WL. She wanted a bag and I was supposed to look at black heels and jackets. In the end, I got home with a book (for my Darling No 1, titled Strength Finder 2.0 by Tom Rath, will write a review if he lets me read his book) and this bag. I refused to tell him how much it is because I paid for it with my own money.

I do feel like I am hiding things from him (the way my colleagues, like LH, are hiding stuff from their husbands by stowing their purchases in the office. and no, I do not have 3 pairs of heels and 2 bags in my office cupboards) when I don't tell him how much it costs. But he is not entitled to know because it IS my own money. I am not extravagant but practical because I never buy bags (just 4 bags in my whole life and they don't cost much) and this bag will be well utilised since it is meant for work and leisure.

Only thing is, when should I start to use it? In July, as a birthday present for myself? Or now (since the current bag I am using, one of my mom's many bags, has a spoilt handle)?

Let me think about it....
