Made popular by the Olsen Twins, the Nightingale is definitely Givenchy’s most iconic bag. I had always been on the fence on this bag until i saw a lady carrying the exact same as the one here last week and realised the medium size Nightingale is actually gorgeous. The image here is not enough to do justice to the bag. The leather is grained white patent, more gorgeous in “person”. This classic is being marked down on Barneys now from USD1,775 to USD1,069, a really good deal indeed.

Summer sale has officially begun in many parts of the world, including Singapore’s legendary Great Singapore Sale (GSS). I have noticed that the sale this year is indeed the most attractive within the last 5 years. Coach, Bally, Celine, Ferragamo and Chloé, for instance offers up to 70% discount while Burberry, Loewe, Marc by Marc and Marc Jacobs up to 50%. Gucci, Prada, YSL, Tod’s, Fendi will commence within a week. Go go! Throw in the much needed money to keep the economy spinning and do your patriotic deed!
