BOX 4 A BAG

BOXY BAG - MARC JACOBS



Yes, I have followed the boxy bag trend. Yes to structure but boxy is another.

Huge trend this year though I have liked them since last year.

The most apparent was when during the Louis Vuitton Fall 2014 RTW debut its Petite Malle bag (a miniature LV trunk - Alzer or Bisten perhaps). OMG!!! I loved it instantly. If only I can purchase one, but as you know it's like the unattainable Chanel Lego Bag ... well you can admire it from a far but it can never really be owned unless you have some hard cold cash to plonk of course.



There are a lot of second hand jewelery boxy bags that can be purchased from EBay anyway so make a beeline there pronto.

I have just settled for a practical one.

Ta dah. I think I'll bring this baby to Paris with me in June but where do I stash my Perrier? Ha ha.

The Allegra Leather Box Bag currently sold at Matches Fashion at RM1900 but I got mine at RM860 :)

PRETTY LACE

FEMININE & CLASSY DRESSING



So who does not like to look like a lady every now and then (though we may be more comfortable in just a 'well lived in' tee shirt and a dog eaten shorts).

However, with all these new and keep emerging clothing lines from designers churning out beautiful and delicate lacey dresses, tops and skirts .. who am I but totally falling head over heels for them. Unfortunately they cost a bomb. Yes, have you seen the ones from Burberry! An embellished lace skirt sold at Matches Fashion retails for over RM5,000! Gulp! Not for me but I can admire and hoping that I could find replicas for the high end ones will be a great delight. Further Burberry manage to top it off with some delightful embellishment on those delicate lace dresses and skirts too. Ohhh double YUM!

BURBERRY



 
Other designers with really great lace items are as follows:
 

ERDEM

 
 
 
 

ALESSANDRA RICH

 


 
These are just some of my favourites and I have managed to score some lacey stuffs too.
 
I managed to obtain a piece of the beautiful ERDEM skirt during THE OUTNET Clearance sale and I am so happy.
 
I bought this delicate Erdem Shawna Skirt at 80% :)
 
Yes, I cannot afford too many expensive lace pieces, I branched out to Zara and bought these too considering the fact that they are so much more affordable.
 
 

 
 
Got the lace top and skirt in Blueberry Colour they called it I think and the TRF lace skirt. Don't expect French Lace but it's enough to satiate my lace hunger for now.
 
Loving it.

FIRST LADY SHOES

My First Christian Louboutin



Hoot! Hoot!

First ever pair of Louboutin and I got the classic style.

Most (or more like 90%) of their pumps are like 4 inches and above. I cannot batter my feet and knee joints for the sake of fashion so I settled for the Fifi 85mm, which suits me just fine. Would have loved the pointed pump but I think I'll get that in black the next time.

Ta dah!!!
