TRESORMAKATI update + Galleria Schmalleria


Heavens me, I had not been to Robinson’s Galleria for the looongest time, but I had to go there a few days ago to meet up with my ex-webmonkey (yes, ex haha). Apres turn over of the huge file of the TRESOR website (which I will have to edit on my own still *horrors horrors, I don’t even own a Macromedia Dreamweaver software for Mac yet*), I walked around the mall to calm my nerves (hahaha yes I needed to calm them nervies. I am stressed).

There’s this a place called 50th Avenue which has been there for quite some time *but of course being the loser that I am, I am last to find out hehe* (oh please let my memory serve me well here– is it called 50th avenue?! *or I shall bury my head under the hatchet*), which is basically a glorified tiangge *bazaar* (ooh and I looove tiangge). The usual labels are there– Preview, Girlshoppe, and then there were these “island” boutiques which also sell shoes from Korea (priced under Php 500, and that’s without haggling). Outside that shebang, are the real boutiques like Mimi (darn there was a shirt I liked there, but there was a stain on it– ewww), Iora, and Chocolate. There was also another boutique named Wade, which sold some nice bags and shoes (hmm first time I’ve seen this place, really!). And of course, there’s VNC (they’re everywhere hehe). So I walked in to check out their shoes. Ugh. I spied a nice pair of thong sandals that I likey. Price tag: Php 1,100+. Me check my wallet. Ok, game, I have some money. Php 1,200 to be exact *snicker sad*

I left Galleria feeling elated *you see, whoever said money doesn’t buy temporary happiness, obviously does not know where to shop hahahaha*. Yay, I have a new pair of shoesies!!! I can unfortunately, not wear any thong type sandals for the next few days because I bruised my big toe (eeeeeew grooosss– hey if you MUST know why! *hehehe*). Sooo.. til the next few days then!

Oh, oh! I finally found someone who could relate to my throat problem! Baghag LG suffered a similar reflux problem! So now I know this is somewhat normal *hehehe I swear I was beginning to think I had throat cancer!*. Thanks so much LG for sharing that equally horrific experience. I can sleep better at night now 😀

Shameless Plug Alert: TRESORMAKATI gets yet another update. Check out www.tresormakati.com for Prada and Louis Vuitton bags. And here’s a 4-1-1 on my bag of choice 😀

CHLOE Paddington satchel. This bag was touted as one of Preview Magazine’s hottest bags of 2005 (so what if it’s no longer 2005, it’s still an iconic bag). *ooh check it out, the YSL suede orange fringe hobo is also there! *winkwink Baghag of CDO :D*

And here are the 2 CHLOE bags for sale:

Indigo paddington satchel. Leather is so soft, no scratches visible on any part. Padlock hardware coat has chipped off in some parts, but it’s not so bad still. The overall bag condition is excellent, is very clean, and will come with the Chloe dustbag. ASKING PRICE: Php 60,000.

Craie paddington satchel (bag is located in the US). Another Chloe satchel up for grabs. I still have my paddington and I still love it (sans the padlock hehe) 😀 Anyway, this bag is also in excellent condition and was hardly used by the owner. It will also come with the Chloe dustbag as well as padlock, natch 🙂 ASKING PRICE: US$800 (conversion will be the closing $ rate for the day, for international buyers, Paypal echeck is the preferred payment method).

For more details, email tresor@compass.com.ph or SMS at (+63916) 7580857.

Gotta catch some early shuteye tonight. Had a 2 hour massage last night and I’d like to think I will have one again tonight (but I won’t of course) so I can be conditioned to be “tired”.

THE BAG HAG’S Lust-for item today is:
A LANVIN Kansas tote. Recently available at Barneys.com for US$1,625.00, this bag was sold out since last year (and I didn’t join the bandwagon when everyone was queuing up for this bag). I saw this same bag at Lane Crawford in Hong Kong and still couldn’t stop kicking myself for not having gotten the bag. It’s a classic tote, one that will transcend trend. Why did I not get it before? Because by now you hags know, I don’t care much for black or brown bags. But this bag is different… Hmmm!!! (5th year Anniversary coming up hahaha… there’s always jewelry if it ain’t this bag haha! *DH will gulp and choke. But GEEZ it’s our FIFTH year anniversary!! I should be excused– NOT! Hehehe*)

Nitey hags!!

  1. You don’t really need Dreamweaver to edit website files. I think a text editor and some knowledge of html will do. If you need some help I’m willing to lend you a hand (I am not a professinal web designer though) 😛

  2. Mrs. T,

    I posted the link to your site at Purse Forum. I know there are some ladies looking for the Craie Paddy. Hope you don’t mind. Kinda interested myself but I just bought a paddy tote. And if you think the satchel is heavy, wait till you carry the tote!

  3. ooh that indigo paddy is tickling my fancy…so pretty! how “old” is the bag??
