Got My Mind Set on You

I got my mind set on you
But it's gonna take money
A whole lotta spending money
It's gonna take plenty of money
To do it right...

Remember this 80's hit song by George Harrison? I remember when I was really young, I used to play it on and on. Only very recently I found out that George Harrison was the lead guitarist of The Beatles! Probably one of his only solo songs? And all that time I thought her was an American singer. But that's not the point of this post. This song exactly describes how I feel about falling for 4 different bags at the same time. I spotted them at Givenchy boutique in 360 Mall and I couldn't decide which one to go for. And of course I wouldn't buy all of them at once. That would be ridiculous. Right? A current favorite is this Givenchy antigona bag. The drawbacks however are 1) its light shade, which means prone to stains, although I'm in love with its color-combo. 2) it was slightly on the heavy side, not sure if I'd have the strength to carry it around with all my junk inside. But I'm still in love with it.

So... back to the song I guess..

Its gonna take tiiiiime
A whole lot of precious time
It's gonna take patience and time...

Givenchy Nightingale Satchel bag is quite the classic and not as heavy as the antigona bag

Envelop clutch in one of my favorite shades, cobalt blue! So pretty...

Why am I seeing something Celine'ish in the first bag and the third one? Hmmm....guess the structure and the use of more than one color. At any rate, the first one is beeyooriful. Still, I myself am avoiding heavy bags like the plague now. You get so happy when you first buy them but after a few long outings you realize you need to go back to your lighter bags to avoid hurting your shoulder.

ps. good job with the verses! I do remember and love that song :)

These bags have a hold on you to make you inspired to write poetry because of the eagerness to own them. I laughed a bit when I read the introductory literary work but I was still impressed at how you're so passionate about your hobby in collecting beautiful bags and clothes.

Yeah the structure used and the way they integrated colored leather to the design is borderline Celine-ish.. probably that's why I fell for it! :P
Thanks ;)

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in  Miu Miu   Boutiques throughout our region.
