The Simple Life of a Baghag

So what did I get as my anniversary gift from dear hubby? Whatelse?!

Actually, this one is quite unexpected and again an early present since we were just strolling around Shangrila Plaza and we happen to pass by this shop. This bag caught my eye (hubby also liked it) and after a while, I came home with this...




Kate Spade Leather Drawstring Bag in Tan

I'm one happy baghag! :) Thanks hunny!

Finally! Naka-blog din! Whew!

I've been super busy (and still super dooper busy!) that i've kind of "neglected" my blog. For that i'm truly sorry :( *sos sobs sobs * Anyway, nothing major happened except that my work has been occupying most of my time and when it was time for me to blog, I just can't do it because i'm dead tired during the day. I also have been quite sickly nowadays, will tell you more about it in my next posts. For now, I felt that I need to do some updates because i'm afriad you pips might forget about me na hehehe!

And I thought that the best way for making a "blog comeback" is by doing this very interesting tag from Marie. Oh.. I remember I was tagged by MM before with this but never had the chance to do it. So sorry MM, i'll make "bawi" the next time :)

Here are the rules:

1. Post a picture of whatever bag you are carrying as of late. No, you can't go into your closet and pull out your favorite purse! We want to know what you carried today or the last time you left the house.

2. List how much it cost. And this is not to judge. This is for entertainment purposes only. So spill it. And if there is a story to go along with how you obtained it, we’d love to hear it.

3. Tag some chicks. And link back to this post so people know why the heck you’re showing everyone your bag.

I was carrying my blue jean Fino doctor's bag. I got this many, many years ago pa. I think it was my birthday when I bought it as I gift for myself. Price at that time around 5K++. I got it on sale.



Here's what inside my bag. I carry a big bag always because I have a lot of stuff! I'm no light packer!



A closer look of my "abubots":



My daily "abubots": two cellphones, my iPod Touch, a book (a staple in my bag), my trusty old Lacoste perforated wallet, my Coach wristlet (very handy for lunch outs), make-up kit with the ff. inside: i.d. Mineral Foundations and applicator, Nars Blush, Shisheido two-way foundation and lipstick, Kiehl's tinted Lip Balm, Shu Uemura eye lash curler, M&S hand lotion and ACCA Kappa Brush, a notebook, my company I.D. and mints.

Not in the picture (which i'm too shy to show hahaha) are the "kalats" - receipts, tissues, billings, etc. And also, I carry around a mini-medicine kit for emergencies.

Passing this on to Kris, Dez, Vina, Arlene and Eds.

So that's about it. Hope to do more posts in a little while. But for now, i'm signing off and get ready for Church. Ciao!

I've always loved (and oftenly use) big, roomy bags. However, when I saw this "cutie", I could not resist!....... I have to get this!..... and I did!



Coach Min SG Duff Wristlet in Sand/Tan

It comes in two colors: black and light pink (shown above). Price at $ 1,495 in Neiman Marcus. This style is quite in demand nowadays as you can not order more than three (3) pieces in thirty days. Whew! Talk about high demand! If I have the money for this, I will definitely have my name listed in the order list. It would be the perfect match to my newly bought ZARA pumps in the same color :)

We baghags know that finding the bag of our dreams is like finding your soulmate. O.A. ba? But it's true right? Nothing beats the feeling of having that "BAG". However, finding the "one" is not that easy. In the case of LV, you have to at least be listed at the store's super looong waitlist just to have the chance to buy the bag of your choice. There's no guarantee when you will have it. You just have to patiently wait, pips. That's why, it's good to know that there are baghags out there, like my multiply business contact, the lv lady.



You see, the lv lady is a true blue baghag who sells brand new and second hand authentic designer bags. It's 100% guaranteed authentic so you don't have to worry about knock-offs. Besides, she carries a lot of styles some are even no longer available in the stores or better yet, new styles that are not yet available in the boutiques. Last time I checked the site, she has the LV Mini Lin Speedy that Jody's crazy about. So, to baghags out there, check out this site. Who knows, you might find your "dream" bags here.

Oh btw, my favorite baghag, Mrs. T, also has a website that offers second hand designer bags. Check out also www.tresormakati.com. Her collection is to die for!
