The Thing About Valextra


I don’t know what it is about Valextra. I have not yet found myself falling ga-ga for the brand. *I think I should be thankful for that because the brand doesn’t have “cheap” bags haha*.

I honestly think I’m just not sophisticated enough for Valextra. I’ve seen a few women with the more famous Boston bag and I have to say, the bags (I’ve seen) do look very,very luxurious. The colors I’ve seen so far were etoupe and tundra. I was taking a serious liking to the etoupe boston but I held back. The bag was priced at US$2,380 (at Barneys).

I was thinking I should just wait it out *more like wait out my current standing in the bag financial reds*. And then I saw these colors, which I believe, are new *or at least new because I just saw them online (and have yet to see them in person) haha*.

Holy Cannoli. Think you’d be able to resist Valextra still? I’m liking *take note, I didn’t use the word “love” yet haha* the blue (turchese)! Like it, but I think I shall be holding off on yet another purchase. *Sigh* I’m being prudent with my bag money lately * funds depleted already by the way*

There are also Valextra shopping totes (Babila) in different colors. My personal picks include the orange and the royal blue Although I doubt I’ll ever be able to fork over US$2,240 (large costs US$2,650) for them.

P.S. BIG thank you to DollyC: I love, love, love the sunblock!! 🙂 I don’t know how you know, but I hoard sunblock products *even if I know my sunspots will still come out (like the sun rises and sets) no matter how much sunblock I put on my face:D*

P.P.S. Here’s another “Blue” item– a Hermes dogon wallet *blue jean with contrast white stitching*, owned by DC. Loving the color big time!! 🙂 Thanks for the email!

  6. Hello Miss Baghag!!! I tried to write a comment on your current post but it wouldn’t let me. Weird. Anyway, I totally agree with what you said about life being more than just about bags, jewelry, etc. It’s a great reminder in this fashionista era. ANywhoo… just wondering if you have heard of the wooden Acacia bags of former Bb. Pilipinas Universe Gionna Cabrera. I interviewed her, featured her bags and bought one. Here is the article… hope you enjoy!!!
