I slept remarkably early last night because while I was supposed to pack for my trip today + attend 2 events of friends, I ended up getting stressed out at the dentist’s, after my DK’s super harrowing ordeal having a tooth extraction. I am an emotionally strong woman, brave (I think I can fairly say I am), but when it comes to my kids, I am such a wuss. Every single pain my kids feel, I feel it more (wuss wuss wuss). I was so affected by my DK’s reactions to the tooth extraction that I not only cried (yes, so I am wimpy), I also got so tired after. And I guess those 2 nights of lack of sleep (I was working on both DKs’ science projects for their science fair) and stress, fatigue just set in and I crashed. I was out like a light in less than 5 minutes of lying down in bed.
My bed remained my best friend until 11am today *shame shame shame* but I had to begrudgingly get up because I had to pack + work on a few more errands before I leave my reality worries behind and fly off with family for our annual Easter vacation.
I got asked today what bags I will bring and to be honest, I don’t know. But if I had enough space in my luggage to bring a large bag, I’d definitely pick this Bally Vespa Canvas and Shark Leather Tote
I know, I know. Many might be shocked with my choice– “A Bally bag? Isn’t that a little… old?”. Well yes, Bally had a staid image but look at the bags they’ve been coming up with of late! This bag is that perfect chic vacation bag.
It’s so laid back- looking and still so classy. And I like that there’s a zippered compartment at the bottom of the bag too. Oh and yeah, shark leather lol *me and my exotics*. And it’s in red! Cruise collection chic! 🙂 The bugatti shape is a fail-safe shape, and this bag though in canvas, will be a very good investment. Helps to have Scotchgard to protect the canvas part from getting dirty too 🙂
I love it! You should check out the other Bally bags too while you’re at it. The Bally Vespa Canvas Bag is available now at NET-A-PORTER

Now back to the packing *and to the figuring out which bag to bring!* Don’t forget to follow me on Twitter.com/Thebaghag for my vacation updates if you are interested 🙂

Hi! I have the same bag in blue. But with a long strap attached on it. I wonder if yours have too because I want to take off mine. Thanks!
