MBC: Laptop "Kate"

I've always loved kate-spade green.
So when I found this laptop bag from Hello Lulu in Kate-spade trademarked green, I lost all rationality.
Brain: I don't even carry out my laptop, why would I need a laptop bag?
Heart: What the heck!



The bag's huge and can be even used for overnight travelling. Comes with a small pouch for you to compartmentalize stuff.
Think the brand's relatively unknown, but you could find a relatively complete range @ PageOne Vivocity.
There's where I got this "kate-spade" from. Set me back by $99 but it's really worthed it.

MBC: Nine West Me Bag

Sometimes you'll walk into a shop and spot a bag that's well, very "me-like".
"My kind of style".
I guess this was one of those moments.
Spotted this beauty at Isetan Scotts sometime back. Thought the design was 100-marks. The quality is so-so only though. But maybe I'm asking for too much.

Liked the mini-pouch that accompanied the bag. Good for holding EZ-link cards and such.

MBC: Candy Pink Sling


Bought this bag from my colleague in support of her newly-established e-shop. It was great value-for-money, as the material was very good, with fine worksmanship and many detail. The colour is bright and admittedly attention-seeking =p but I couldn't resist pink.

MBC: Animal Sling


Spotted this mini-sling bag at the Animal Shop @ Novena Square/Velocity some time back. Thought the ruggedness paired up with sweet inner prints was a perfect mismatch =) Fell in love with the bag and though I found it overpriced at bout $50, I reluctantly paid for it at the cashier.

You know the trick of controlling buying impulse by walking around and thinking bout the item to consider whether you really need it or not? Doesn't work too well on me. To my horror, only recently I saw the same bag on sale somewhere else, HALF price! faints!

MBC: Naraya Madness!

One of the most amazing things I encountered during my bangkok trip last year was Naraya bags.
They say you can't have the best of both worlds, you can't have cheap & good.

But Naraya have proven them wrong.



I love their cutsie designs, signature bow ties and plaited handles.
And they are light-weight too. Very good for lugging around when doing light shopping.



The bags come in all shapes & sizes too, from tissue pouches to baby bags, you could get one whole series of the same design in different shapes and sizes.



To all non-Naraya converts out there, do visit the Naraya shops when you visit Bangkok.
Just spend a little bit more time browsing, and the Naraya fever will get to you soon enough.
