Bag advise needed!

Sponsored post

Personally, I think that my bag collection is pretty complete… with the likes of Marc Jacob, Chanel, Miu Miu, Louis Vuitton, Celine, to name a few; and they range over a healthy spectrum of colors too: from classic black and (impossible-to-maintain) ivory, to more unique colors such as baby blue and red.

That’s my rational self speaking. That side of me completely goes out the window once I catch a whiff of soft, buttery leather.

Let’s face it, women can never have too many bags. Or shoes. Or clothes. You get my drift.

One of the brands of bags that I’ve been dying (I am only half-kidding) to get my hands on is Alexander Wang—I love the nonchalant, casual feel of his bags.

My heart did a funny leap when I saw the following A. Wang bags on Reebonz:



Alexander Wang Small Emile Tote Handbag – RM4,360 (save RM1,315)



Alexander Wang Marion Sling Leather Bag – RM3,148 (save RM1,029)



I am leaning more towards the clutch, but at the same time, a bigger bag seems more practical… Decisions, decisions. It’s hard being a modern-day woman wtf.

Indeed these 2 bags are very tempting, because check out the savings that I would be making! More than RM1K for either bags! All thanks to the brilliance of Reebonz.

If you’re a long-time reader of mine, then Reebonz will not be foreign to you, as I’ve talked about Reebonz here before. Heck, even if you’re new to my blog, surely you would have heard of Reebonz, a member's only shopping site that offers luxury items and services at a discount of 30% - 70% off retail prices!

Reebonz holds exclusive private sales events, which lasts 2-3 days for members to purchase. At the moment, I am eying these babies of the current ongoing events:



Yves Saint Laurent Oversized Iconic Muse Tote – RM6,103 (save RM1,945)




Yves Saint Laurent Easy Satchel – RM5,199 (save RM1,978)




Prada Spazzolato Flap Bag – RM3,444 (save RM1,350)



Cannot…resist…such…discounts…

The scary thing is that Reebonz actually offers Malaysian 0% instalment payment schemes via credit card from 6 participating banks, including alliance Bank, EON, HSBC, Maybank, MBF, OCBC and Public Bank. Scary because these luxury goods suddenly become shockingly affordable!

Because…I only need to pay RM143 a month and the Prada Spazzolato flap bag is mine!! :O

Cannot…resist…such…affordable…luxury…


Besides that, Reebonz.com offers a 14 working day return policy and currently delivers to 16 countries free of charge (Malaysia is one of them!). Delivery takes between 3-5 days subject to customs clearance, and the best part is: we don’t have to pay for custom duties and taxes-- which is a major relief, because taxes can be a real bitch. Case in point: Teeny paid a higher amount of taxes than the actual purchased item itself when she bought from Net-a-porter sometime ago. -_-

Dancing Fish.

The highlight of my week is that there's a new printer in my household.
Yippee.





Lunch at the 'dancing fish' place (little did I know that it's really the name of the place) that my mom has been raving about for yonks.




















I was really pleased with the restaurant the moment I stepped in... Chic, simplistic interior, silent but efficient staff... Until my sister accidentally spilled the Indonesian snack (above), and the waiter used his hands to pick up all the pieces and put it back into the bowl for us to eat. -__- I mean, fine, you don't want to serve us a new bowl of chips, but do you have to use your bare hands to pick them up??

The sambal was awesome though.








Nonetheless, nice place, great food. Wouldn't go there unless someone else is paying though, nyehehe.



Outfit:







Bird print tank: Sass & Bide
Block bias hem skirt: Azorias
Silver layered chains: Teeny's from Korea
Black chain link tassel necklace: Holiday in Korea
Ring: YSL
Black leather studded clogs: Stuart Weitzman
Black leather/ pony hair zipper clutch: Furla

Virus taking over my life.

My laptop crashed again.

-____________________-


My BRAND NEW laptop.

-____________________________________________-


It got taken over by some rogue anti-virus program (people, if you ever see an antivirus program called Security Protection warning you that you have a gazillion viruses on your computer, DO NOT BE CHEATED), which just keeps telling me that I have to purchase the antivirus program-- and it stops me from opening any form of executable programs including Mozilla Firefox/ Internet Explorer and even Task Manager.

My computer is my lifeline. If my computer doesn't work, how am I going to work!!????

Anyway, long story cut short, I reformatted my laptop today, and everything is reset to factory settings. Le sigh.

By the way, besides my laptop, I also kena virus.
Having a flu today. Meh.

Am not in a mood to blog properly, but I am going to be kind and let you guys have something fun to read!
