MBC: Toscano Document Bag

*Colour variation due to camera flash

So here it is, my latest splurge. A leather document bag with many bullet holes *lol* When I first saw the bag I really thought it was strange looking... and after looking at it the second, third, fourth, umpteenth time, I realised I have started to like it very much. I must admit the interior was a plus factor too, it is very much like the Tocco bag except this was in maroon (and the other's in pink). The true exterior colour is closer to the second picture under flash light. The inside pouch is detachable, so it doubles as a lunch bag. Well I'm really looking forward to carrying this to my first day of work =p

Now for sale! $80

An unfortunate event... or blessing in disguise?

An unfortunate thing happened to my Tocco bag: one of the brass studs fell off. On the very same day this happened I brought the bag to the Tocco/Toscano section of the Metro departmental store at causeway point to seek help from the promoter auntie whom I know will be able to save the bag. She's really friendly and helpful and actually remembers JJ & I from our previous encounters (okie perhaps we are really talkative customers =p). So my bag is now on its way back to the workshop for repair (re-studding). The possible blessing in disguise is, I found out the bag which I've been eyeing on and deliberating over for quite some time is having a marked-down discount at Metro. Further more, I have discounted Metro vouchers. So overall I'll be able to enjoy a 42% discount off the retail price (yay!). The promoter auntie is helping me to order the bag as my favourite brown colour in the series is not available there. Will post it up on the blog as soon as I lay my hands on it =)
