Over dinner, I was talking to my friend JS who had just recently given birth to a baby boy. She was telling me how she can’t imagine why I would not want to buy a real good black bag (that I’d never sell). Hmmm, well I guess I really like colorful bags. I’ve always been drawn to bright colors over neutrals. Time immemorial (err.. this would be post Chanel 2.55 in black– the very first designer bag that I had saved up to buy on my own). I’d buy any colorful bag– designer or non designer. As long as the color really appeals to me.
And with eluxury.com’s further markdowns on select bags, here are two that caught my fancy.
Marc by Marc Jacobs.
This is most certainly Not your average blue hobo bag. THIS, is what I call blue 😀 *electric blue*. And for the price of US$229, it’s a pretty good buy. Nice useful pockets in front make this bag a worthy purchase. Take advantage of the elux sale and grab this bag 🙂
Paul Smith.
Ok, this is soooo cute. While I am not really the kinda person who’d tote a messenger bag, I would have considered this bag. The colorful print of a multi-striped mini car set against the backdrop of a casino does it for me. It’s soo cute. Measures 19″L x 12″H x 4.75″W (perfect as a travelling bag!). In fact, the interior canvas lining is in bright psychedelic purple (yes, psychedelic!). Priced at US$240 (from $400), I’d get this bag if my pursepurchase ban gets lifted and if it were still available at elux by that time 🙂
And here’s a photo sent by baghag CS, 
who finally took the dive and got herself her first ever LV bag– yes, the pandora speedy it is, for this lady 😀 Congratulations, CS! You have just opened up the pandora’s box– now watch your LV collection grow 🙂 *wink!*
Hope you hags had a nice weekend 🙂 I am sorta tired, so let me get some early shut eye 😀 Looong day ahead!

mrs t! i have been searching high and low for a blue bag and that mj one is perfect! but of course i can’t buy it cos i’m a broke college student. anyways, i think you are the best person to answer some questions i have! what’s the difference btw the chanel classic flap bag and the 2.55? or are they the same bags? and what are the sizes they come in?
hey..Mrs T
i got my plum Chanel too!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~“
yeh!!! it’s so beautiful. I took the one with single strap. I love how the new chanels have a hook for single strap nowadays that you can adjust the length as you wish. Loved the color. wonder would it be a limited edition? hmm
and oh baghag you can actually take a small piece of paper that reads belong to baghag or something to put it on the bags that you have to take pictures and then you wont have to photoshop anymore.
mrs.t, lovebags is right.
that way you don’t have to do photoshop anymore AND there would be lesser chances of it getting photoshopped. 😀
having a picture with a named paper photoshopped, it would be really obvious that it had been photomorphed.
