A Brief Update

Dear Baghags,

I am once again humbled by the outpour of support from you all for my blog. I felt the need to address that comment earlier because somehow it really upset me because while I know this blog is just a personal outlet for my emotions and bag addiction, I also felt that everyone reading this blog has become a part of me, so yes, I felt violated (hahaha my human rights!!!). You are all right– it IS my blog, and no one should deny me that so-called privilege of posting my photo avec le coeur (sorry I’m totally absorbing Paris haha). But the photo with the heart thing is one thing you have to give to me. Whether you already know what I look like or not is immaterial. Bottom line, I just don’t feel confident enough to “officially” put a face to this blog… not yet (not until I get my face overhauled hahaha) Soooo, thank you all for understanding why I don’t “reveal” my face– again, it is a face only a mother can love (even my DM criticizes me for my acne farm and believe me, you hags would NOT wanna see exploding pus here hahahahaha… Fabio pales in comparison… NOT pretty hahahaha)

Anyway, I will not deny the rest of the baghags the photos of places I was lucky enough to see– I promise you all those and more in a few days. I have only a few minutes to use the internet before I head off again. By the way, I am already in Roma 😉

Lastly, a few questions answered:

1. Yes, I went to L’Eclarieur! I even tried on the Balenciaga floral skirt which was just beautiful if it weren’t for the length (and the darned price!! heart attack!!) 😀 I would’ve bought it (but then the better part of me said, JUST GET A BAG, darnedit! *muwahahaha*)

2. I did go to Saint Honore 🙂 Couldn’t have left Paris without visiting the Motherships– Hermes and Goyard even (too bad Ms.AO that I was no longer able to get you that bag since I didn’t go back there a 2nd time anymore *sniff*). And yes, my DSIL and I scored at Hermes *woooohooooo*. More on that in due time 😉 *Revealing the loot right away makes me feel soooo guilty haha… I think you all know that by now, non?* But no worries, it wasn’t like the Tokyo reveal haha.

3. To DaphOP: I went to JAR— but guess what, he went on his vacance! *Pfffft*. However, I did take exterior shots of his “shop”. He only has ONE vitrine! How elusive is that? 😀 *P.S. vitrine was empty too, tsk.*

And here’s something SUPER interesting for you all *especially for me haha*– I ran into Dita Von Teese!!!! Literally ran into her! We were at Le Madeleine by Laduree when I turned around and almost ran into this very svelte and beautiful brunette with porcelain skin. Then she turned toward to her car and that was when I realized who she was! It was the mole that gave her away 🙂 I was like a deer staring at headlights– stopped dead in my tracks and was too paralyzed to ask her back for a photo. I nearly screamed at my clueless DB and said, “Oh my God, that’s Dita VonTeese!!” I managed a shot of her going into her chauffeured Mercedes ;). How pathetic was that for a socialclimbing baghag wannabe? 😀 Too chickencrap to ask for a photo (ahem, ok am sorta glad I don’t have a photo with her *welll… not really.. but ok let me just use this as an excuse haha* or it’ll be harsh reality for me– to be pitted against someone so beautiful and clearly see that I just look like a pathetic handmaiden who hasn’t had a decent shower in ages hahaha… gross)

Much love from Rome,
Mrs.T
