.... is my new Damier Speedy 35.
Just a little kwento about this new baby:
Just like Jacqui's kwento here, hubby ask me to go with him in Greenbelt 4 to pick up my Christmas pressy. He's been teasing me since November pa yata about my gift. Ako naman, kunyari di excited, lol. Anyways, we went there in the afternoon of Dec. 24. By the time we got there, ang daming tao. As in. I read in one blog post (i dont remember where na eh sorry), how crowded the LV store in GB4 nowadays and mukhang tiangge. We were also there a week before and di pa naman masyado crowded, but since its the day before Christmas, dami talagang tao. Honestly, I wasn't really happy with the service of the SA's that day maybe because they're really tired na. It took us maybe about 30 minutes to find a very nice available SA named MIKA to assist us. She apologizes for not attending to us immediately and gladly helped us with our choice. I'm really keen on getting the Damier Speedy since it's low maintenance compared to the monogram (but I would like to get the monogram one day too :)) It's either that or the Neverfull Monogram. However, hubby like the speedy better so speedy it is. Originally, I chose the Speedy 30 since I thought it would best suit my needs. So, I asked Mika to get me a new stock. But, out of the blue, I also ask her to get the Speedy 35 for comparison. I tried both and the three of us (Mika, hubby and me) all agreed that the 35 looks better on me. I was surprised because I thought the 35 is too big for my frame but when I looked at the mirror, the 35 wasn't really bad din pala. Plus, there's more room for my stuff hehehe. I remember my friend Malou once told me to get the 35 instead since she finds the 30 too small for our stuff. Anyway, we finally decided on the 35 and I couldn't be more happier with my decision. Another bonus if I may add pala, I guess it was my lucky day that time, the stock Mika got for me already have a padlock inside! Yey! We're both surprised to find out because she informed me before getting the new stock that there's no available padlock and she will just call me once it's already available. I was so lucky daw she keep on telling me. I just smiled, hehehe. Oh by the way, we saw two celebrities also buying an LV. Nikki Gil and Billy C. Siguro sila nga :)
When we left the boutique, it's almost dark na so we hurried back home since we will hear mass at 8pm. I'm one happy baghag :)
P.S. Just after leaving LV, I made a short trip to the nearby Gucci store and almost bought a nice bag at 15% OFF! Buti na lang nagmamadali kami at di ako nagpadala sa emotions ko hehehe. Maybe next time...
Congrats on your pretty bag. =)
Sweent naman ni hubby.
I don't own a LV but I dropped by the LV boutique in our area last week (wanted to give hubby a hint for my 30th bday, hehehe)and tried both the Speedy in 30 and 35...and like you, I found out na hindi nga naman masyado kalakihan sya :)
the padlock is for my epi alma in cassis. had it exchanged for the chrome color instead of the satin grey. yes, i had another "jennifer-hudson-in-sex-in-the-city" moment last Christmas courtesy of your cousin. good taste really runs in the family....he also chose the color and style- galing diba? now i have full appreciation for the epi and purple color. his logic is, "if you are going to carry an LV, it might as well make a statement."
wow, LV for Christmas! Sarap, sarap noh?! When I got my gift din eve of Christmas, was so giddy happy. Almost jumping with joy sa loob ng Philip Stein store. Hahaha! And sarap feeling ng choosing and picking your gift...lalo na di ikaw ang magbayad. Better than unwrapping present under the Christmas tree. :)
Btw, I heart this bag too! I call it my pang-harabas bag. Very classy and durable for office use. Super sulit!! :)
Congrats, congrats girl! Wishing you more LVOE for 2009!
Thanks ladies! :)
