The window display at the Loewe store at Ngee Ann City Singapore is beyond adorable with the colorful Amazonas and aren’t those cactus just simply irresistible? Not that you would want to touch them but yep!

My one and only Louis Vuitton Monogram Canvas bag and I really love it for its size, shape and convertibility. It is more than one year old now and the Vachetta leather trims are collecting Patina. I got it from the Avenue Montaigne store in Paris last year and the price has since increased from EUR760 to EUR795. The tag is a separate buy and is personalized with my initials.

I’m so jealous. A friend at work talked about getting ready for her long-awaited Europe trip in Christmas. A close friend is on her way to Seoul and Hong Kong and will be spending a real long time there. Another ex-schoolmate is visiting his boyfriend in Beijing and talked about getting a pair of boots. So, speaking of the latter one, I actually bought myself a nice pair on impulse in Hong Kong!
It wasn’t a very cold day but almost every woman on the streets was already in boots! As a matter of fact, women are more beautiful in boots and look somewhat more confident. I told J, no matter what, I’ve got to get a pair asap and I did. =)
Made in Spain and of semi-vegetable tanned leather with medium heel (medium was just right because I had to climb hundreds of staircases to see the Big Bronze Buddha that day so…….). Priced at HKD 1,440 / SGD 260 after some discounts, were totally worth it. Fyi they didn’t hurt. An impulse purchase with no regrets after, they are naturally good =).

That was Dee using my mom’s bag that was purchased in Firenze last year. The trims are deer skin and the body is made of jacquard canvas making the bag looks classy yet light weight. This Prada bag is one of my mom’s favorites in her collection and is an object of envy to her peers (and my grandma) since it is a one-time season item that is no longer in production.
Belt is by Patrizia Pepe, shades from Gucci and the orange scarf is from Calvin Klein.

I have fallen in love with Balenciaga Work since last July and despite almost got side-tracked by some other bags (Gucci New Jackie, Loewe Amazona Weekender, Hermes Marwari and Prada Trolley Suitcase), I am glad that I managed to fall back onto this baby, especially in this beautiful vintage color (called Autumn). I have only used it once so far (one day after I bought it last Saturday) and it has already made it into the top three favorites of my small collection. Get it from Balenciaga.com for USD1,595. Trust me when I said that this bag is such a great investment and that the soft vintage crafted lambskin is to-die-for. The bag comes with a mirror tag which I prefer keeping than showing.

Dainty, demure yet still glam, the Gianni Versace Couture Collection is a classic range of the house of Versace that embodies the spirit of the late founder. Beautiful collection indeed. This is the window display of Versace store in Harbour City @ Canton Road, Kowloon, Hong Kong.

This reached me about 2 weeks but it is only today that I got some time taking the images and posting it. Although I do not fully get most of the things in the magazine, it is still nice seeing the pictures. It is like a high school art magazine project except with much bigger budget, I am sure. Hermes sent the magazine twice a year to their members and this is the second issue for the year.
Oh yeah… 2009 is ending in only two months.
