I’m cutting my blog post short tonight because I need to leave the house real early tomorrow for an appointment with DK. Sooo, I’ll move my post about a clothing company that has some interesting pieces to my liking tomorrow. Besides, someone commented earlier that my blog’s becoming a food blog, soooo here are some bags 😉
Now, you all know I like Gucci. Well, most of the brand’s iconic bags, I like.
But this one kinda threw me off. Gucci’s Icon Bit Medium tote. Yours for only US$ 1,190 *tsk. whatever happened to recession- friendly prices??* Anyway, this tote’s made of multi-colored patent. Which also makes the bag look like it was lubed up (with oil) 😀
Hmm… looking at the bag also got me thinking this– was this bag inspired by a Salagubang (aka scarab… or beetle) hehehe?(credit: Windowsonnature.com)
See the resemblance in color? 🙂 That’s it. I’m not buying that bag *not like I have the moolah for it to begin with!!*.
Walk-down-Memorylane Alert: I used to catch salagubangs when I was a little kid. We’d collect them and put them in those little tin fruit cocktail containers. *Shudders at the thought*. I was much more fearless back then I guess hahaha. Or maybe this bag is worth buying. You know, because it reminds me of my fun childhood? Hahahaha… ok. Not.
If you peeps have US$1,000 to spare for a new bag, I recommend the YSL Medium Easy Zip Tote. Such a beautiful, no- nonsense bag. And while this bag is devoid of the all-over- logo- a- gogo, the letter Y is unmistakably Yves Saint Laurent. Love it! Oh– and this bag will only set you back by 995 greenbacks— you’ll have $5 change. To buy yourself a bottle of Evian (or a few bottles of the local Absolute distilled water *which is wayyyy cheaper hahaha*. Whatever floats your boat, baby :D).
Both bags are available at NeimanMarcus.Com
Night for now peeps! 😉

Hey Mrs T,
It looks like an oilspill of a bag. I don’t like it. 🙁 It looks like if you touched it, you’d get greasy fingerprints on it. My pet peeve! Double sadness for me.
Take care.
I like the YSL bag better
@MaryD: I know! Lol I was gonna call it “Salagu-bag” 😉 I hate when there are oil stains on the bag– and yes, actually if there are oil stains on a black patent bag, it creates this effect!
@PBB: Yes, hands down YSL winner!
