HK Loot + TRESOR MAKATI Update


Oh dear. I was just emailing with my friend Paz late into last night and she sent me a semi scathing email, basically telling me to go to sleep. In her own words, “that’s why you’re always sick”. Oh man, you couldn’t have said it better.

Today, I woke up, SICK!! I was sniffling this morning and by midday, I was already experiencing a sore throat. This time I don’t think it has anything to do with my hyperacidity. You see, last night I was out with DH and well, I sorta got drizzled on because the *feeling* superwoman in me decided I was immune to coughs and colds. Then of course your smart*ass* baghag had to drink an ice-cold Starbucks drink. BAD MOVE.

Now I am suffering the repercussions. Ugh. It was otherwise a pleasant day for me, as I met up with my friend MG to do some serious catching up on our kids and well, on bags 😀 And oh, we talked about fakes. Damn. The proliferation of very good fake designer bags has made it increasingly difficult on people to distinguish the difference between a real and a fake. A friend of mine has suffered this unpleasant fate after having purchased a very expensive bag online through a supposedly reputable company, who doesn’t want to issue her a refund. I won’t be mentioning anything else for now in deference to her request to keep the details private. But as soon as she gives me the go signal, I will for sure be telling everyone about this. I am not one to take these things lightly. *Fuming mad*

Ugh. Ok enough of a negative post already. I am already sick (sheesh do you realize that I have been sick practically all the time?! Tsk. Well I slept at 4am yesterday so maybe that aggravated my condition hehe). Oh and before I forget, here is another photo from the Hermes boutique– they have this trim bag with suede fringes. Hmm… what is it with fringes lately?! LV has an abundance of it in their multicolore collection, and now Hermes? Porquoi?! Am I the last to think that the “western” look is “in”? (Hehehe hello the trends have left this baghag by an eon, as evidenced by my so-called *cough puke* “style” hehehe)

Ok, so I promised to show you my loot last night, and I will 🙂 And I’m already telling you, it’s nothing like the eye candy I had the last time I was in HK 😀 *thebaghag Mrs.T is broke, and is tamed like a domestic cat muwahahaha*

Lanvin Kentucky: Ahh finally! I broke my bagban vows and bought this bag (my second black bag!). It’s the best alternative to the YSL Muse (for me anyway) so far! It’s huge and can fit just about anything. The belt strap on top can be taken out to widen the opening of the bag 🙂 I love, love, love it! The leather is so soft that I can actually just roll up the bag and use it as a pillow! 😀 Barneys.com also has this same bag for US$1,545.00. (I actually also asked fellow baghag NS to get me the older Lanvin Kansas bag in brown… Hmm so now I’ll have two. I’ll decide which one I’ll keep when I see the other one hehehe).

Fendi
Mini Spy: I love this dumpling bag, and I have actually been looking for this color combination for quite some time. Although looking at it now, I feel that it might be a wee bit too small for me. I’m still undecided with whether I will sell her or not. I bought this at Milan Station by the way, and it’s in practically new condition 🙂 (Proof that I buy 2nd hand :D). If I do decide to sell this, I will let it go for Php 38,000.

Marc by Marc Jacobs: The Veruka bag 😀 See how much I love Little Miss Marc? 🙂 If anyone wants this bag, let me know. I have been known to be an impulsive shopper, and well, I bought this and a shirt *hehehe*. I think I might just keep the shirt and retain using my old white Little Miss Marc 😀 Selling this bag for Php 15,000.

I had also bought me a few pairs of shoes 🙂 RA brought me to this little shoe place which sold these nice shoes that probably also made for MiuMiu. (Shop is in Causeway Bay– oh dear, don’t ask me exact location coz I forgot to get their card *grrr!*, but it’s quite near Lee Garden) I bought that zebra-print bling spartan sandals from there.

I also bought me a pair of Puma by Jill Sander sneakers, which were originally priced at HK$2,000+ and reduced to HK$860. 🙂 When I was trying these on, I couldn’t help but think of Daph‘s chic DH Pat, who I think has a sneaker fetish *hehehe, D— does he?*


TRESOR MAKATI NEW STUFF:
I haven’t had the chance to update my site at all, but congratulate me, I finally found MAC Dreamweaver. Now if only I can figure out how to use it, everything would be oh-so-dandy.
But for now, here are the new bags that I received prior to having left for HK. Hags (sellers), sorry it took me a loong loong while to update. But here they are now for everyone to see 😀

Here’s another STEAL at PRADA that I found over the weekend! (This came from me, by the way) Gray satin clutch/ mini handbag from Prada’s formal *couture* line which originally retailed for Php 35,000 and was reduced all the way to Php 8,750! You’ll never see this kind of price in Hong Kong, that’s for sure! (Prada’s evening bags are all gone before they even hit the semi annual sale!) I bought the bag because it was a steal and I couldn’t pass it up. Measures 7″L x 4.75″H x 3.25″W and the bag is in perfectly new condition– very clean, no marks whatsoever inside or out (unlike my own Prada clutch which has a pen mark inside). This has never been used and will come with the authenticity card and the original tagprice. I’m selling this at cost, Php 8,750.

BALENCIAGA
Magenta “First” (motorcycle bag). Bag is brand new, never carried. Has all the trimmings still. The leather has some spots but I believe this is really part of the leather because my own Balenciaga has some similar marks as well. Measures 13.5″L x 8″H. This color is already very hard to find. The bag will come with the dustbag, mirror, extra tassles, tags. TRESOR PRICE: Php 65,000.

LOUIS VUITTON Mini Montsouris Backpack. This is the smallest backpack of the Montsouris style. It’s so cute 😀 The seller only carried this backpack thrice for travel and has not used it since. Measures 8″ x 9″, the cowhide trims and bottom are all pretty light, and has very minimal watermarks on them. The interior and the pocket are both very clean. Backpack will come in its dustbag. TRESOR PRICE: Php 26,500.

LOUIS VUITTON
Monogram Trouville. I actually want this bag for myself *scream!* if I didn’t already spend for bags in HK 🙁 *used up my paycheck!*. Measures 11.75″L x 9″H x 4.5″W, the bag is roomy and has nice compartments for all those knick knacks. The cowhide trim is also light, the handles are light and have minimal dirt on it, and the interior is likewise very clean. This was another bag that the original seller used for travel. It will come with the lock and 2 keys, and its original dustbag. The bag is currently priced at LV for approximately 65K. TRESOR PRICE: Php 38,000.

Please note that all sales are final unless authenticity is proven otherwise. All designer bags are guaranteed authentic as always 🙂 There are more to come, including an LV epi petit noe, LV josephine, YSL mala mala. Just let me get everything in order first. I will hafta take the trusted ol’ Nyquil tonight. I need it. 😀

And of course, lastly, I just have to post this– Let us all welcome Our littlest baghag:Our resident fashionista, DaphP gave birth to this very pretty little lady named Lily last July 22, and she is one big girl at 7 lbs 9 oz! 🙂 Look at that smile 🙂 *awwwwww :D*
