A Fashionista Birthday

Well Shopaholic,

My recommendation will always be the Tods D bag. Its stylish, leather, classy and most important it can be wear casually or for social fine and dine...and Prince Diana swear by it, followed by Kate Middleton of course...:)


But I really think that this time you will need to get other colour than black, I guess u have too many black bags...why not a D bag in these colours :-





They will look good on you...believe me...:) This bold colour should be worn with monotone colors...which u have a lot..it will pop out the colors and make you  look outstanding...:) So is this gonna be your birthday present from hubby this year??

And talk about birthday, I haven't decided yet where we should celebrate this year. As  you know, I am very particular in choosing the best venue..but last year was awesome right??




 We had a exclusive room for the party, nice fusion foods, nice decors, loads of great pics..etc..:)

So as usual, this year, a birthday party for a fashionista should consist the followings :-

1-Posh ambiance and nice decorations
2-Great foods, not the normal foods that we had on Friday night at Ben's or Michaelangelo..
3-Good lighting for nice camwhore moments
4-Nice background music that still allow you to speak to your friends
5-Full with beautiful dressed well people
6-Smoking area...with white ashtray...
7- Have a chill out space with great music so we can hangout after that, chillin and sippin...
8-Mirrors, mirrors, mirrors...
9-Exclusivity...:)

So where is the next venue for next month? Hmmmm...I have one on my mind right now...will make a decision later this week...:)

Oh yeah, and what I want for my birthday?? Ohh ...don't u dare ask!!!..hahahah. But perhaps ill buy these to reward myself...if possible...:)

Spring Summer 2011

Welcome back Ms Shopaholic...:)

You look so happy there in US, especially in NY ya? I know its a very very nice country to visit, the culture, buildings, fashion are totally different...its an experience that one cant forget. Happy to know that you managed to travel to US, at last!!

Looking at all those Shopaholic pics remind me that I need to take a break for a while. Well, I am planning, and hopefully will get a break that I deserve soon. But before that, I need to focus and work hard, especially starting in the month of May. I dunno whether I can even breathe again!!

Lets start with the company outings that I have to arrange annually, and then the come the company new fiscal year, a new target to plan, focus and achieve, an annual dinner to organize, and OMG, I nearly forgot!! my birthday party in June!! My god, I don't even remember...wow...I really need a break!!

Well, lets not talk about workloads for a while, I mean, this blog is for me to relax and unwind, to talk about things I like, not things I hate..hahha..but I like my job also, I like my job, I like my job...(repeatedly)

So, yes youre right, Ms Shopaholic did managed to get the the Jack Spade Tote from NY!!! Yeay!!!! Thank you so much Ms Shopaholic, for all the hassle to find Jack Spade boutique in Warren Street New York! You're the best!! (even though we always quarrel about fashion and brands...:))

But the only down side of it was she unable to get me the Red and Grey coloured tote that I want, instead she get me the same design tote but in Blue and Orange!!

At first, when she posted the pic in Facebook, I was totally skeptical I am able to carry this color. I always go for safe and classical color, never in bright color!! She convinced me that the handsome Jack Spade promoter informed her that it is the most famous color of season and I will never regret it...

On the day when she gave me the bag and I tried a few times at home, my love for that color grew day by day..:). And she's right, S/S 2011 is all about Blue, Orange, Green...:)

Isn't it gorgeous???!!!! I really fall in love with the Gucci 500 tote...checked and the price is RM3800...thats very very nice....and my brother must get this for me...for a job done for him...hehehe...,

In the mean time, this will do for me...

Celine Tote Dual Tone Cabas Tote Bag

This year, I was suddenly falling in love with Celine bags!!! Honestly I never pay any attention to this designer before but when Phoebe Philo started to revamp the fashion house, everything became soo fantastic!!

FYI she was appointed to become the Creative Director of Celine in year 2008 by LVMH after succesfully rebranding Chloe.

Just look at her design for Celine....:)   


Celine Boston Tote (in various sizes)


Celine Men's Tote


Celine Cabas
 ;
I totally drooling over those Cabas especially when Phoebe came out with these designs... :)









The dual colour just striked my mind!! (maybe its due to my Gemini traits!! haha....)

So of course I asked Ms Shopaholic to come with me to Celine Pavillion KL to checked out the totes....

When we arrived I immediately asked for the bag. Its look good and nice, its made from leather and very very soft ! (its made from Lamb Skin).

The price is alright (I remember its about RM3500 ish). I like it, but there is only 1 problem. It felt tooo soft I think if I carry this bag it will tear down in a minute!!

You know, I have this habit to throw anything that I have in my bag (my BB, Iphone, wallet, car keys, sweets, wax, perfumes etc) and I have doubt that it would be able to support the weight... :(

The other design that Celine has  in Pavillion which has a better and tougher leather cost RM6500 which is waaaay out of my budget. So I walked hesitatingly out from the boutique, of course with Ms Shopaholic.  
 

So from there Ms Shiopaholic comfort me and advise me that we can buy the same bag in Paris this year which much lesser price, and I quite agree on that notion..

So days goes by as usual until this month where Ms Shopaholic need to go to US to settle some personal matters.

When she asked me if I have anything in my mind to buy, I straight away google designers from America that has a unique fashion style. After a few days, suddenly my eyes popped out when I saw this!!!

     
It has the same dual tone tote bag that Celine has!!! and the tote bag seems to be very sturdy and masculine!!! I love this bag!!!!! Furthermore, it is a creation of an American designer which is Jack Spade brand, the Man brand opposite Kate Spade which created many many beautiful wonderful gorgeous bags.

And my eyes became even larger when I saw these!!!






 
 Not only it has dual colors but it also has a strap to make it as a messenger bag!!!!!!! Isn't that practical?? :):)

Without any hesitation I asked Ms Shopaholic to get me one of this bag!! I am sooo excited and I reallly really do hope that she would be able to find me this bag. I choose to buy the grey and red tote bag as above. I never had any red color tote bag and this is perfect for me...:) And the price!!! very very affordable...:)

After going through Jack Spade's design, I think this is a very smart brand. Its fashionable but in the same time practical and affordable. I would recommend anyone to have a look at Jack  Spade designs..you'll love it. Its urban and hyped.

But for those in Kuala Lumpur, you can only buy this bag from Singapore, we only have Kate Spade here.    


Therefore I really really hope that Ms Shopaholic will bring back this bag for me....pray for me ok??
