And after I go through the quotes for term life insurance I have just received, I am finally going out for some serious me time. I am going to be doing something drastic and I cannot wait to see the results!

And I leave you with a famous quote from Christian Diro, I knew there was a reason why I liked this designer!

“Happiness is the secret to all beauty. There is no beauty that is attractive without happiness.”

- Christian Dior

Always choose to be happy!
Have a great and awesome inspiring weekend!

I have been hearing about these bags for quite awhile and have seen it up close and personal but I never really got interested in it up until I saw the long-handle types. I’ve yet to see the long handle in medium which is what I am interested in but I am loving the new stocks. If only we didn’t need to shop for tuxedos for the husband for an important event, I would have jumped at a friend’s offer that was selling it for a cheap price.

Here is a glowing feedback about the bag:

It is definitely my first choice to bring to holidays. I love that the huge bag can be folded and tuck into my luggage bag. It also helps that its waterproof so I can be sure that important documents in my bag would be safe from the rain. It’s also a very durable bag; my Le Pliage bags which are already a few years old are still in tip top condition. Did I mention that it’s so spacious that I can fit a water bottle, a book, a wallet, an umbrella, makeup bag and other knickknacks in it?

Many people also don’t know this: Lonchamp has a very liberal exchange policy. If the surface of the bag has ‘bubbles’ after some time, you can change it for a new one with no question asked! That is as long as the original tag inside the bag is intact. However, I was a little disappointed that the distributor in Malaysia, BNA Distribution Sdn. Bhd, initially refuse to honour this promise. In that case, you can either file a complain (like I did) or get it changed in Singapore.

I really should be reviewing the cad drawings my brother-in-law sent for me to check but I’ve been wasting hours in the Purse Forum looking over the numerous options for a Balenciaga bag. Not that I am buying anytime soon, but when a purchase is this monumental, a girl has to plan hard. Friends are Bal converts and though I have yet to own a designer bag, I think my original plan to have a Gucci got switched to Balenciaga.

A Twiggy is something on my mind when I saw how it can be a great bag but I have always been a shoulder bag lady – gotta get my hands free so I’m looking over the Giant Day Balenciaga. The Part Time is a must-have too.

I do not need the best seo software to tell me that every time I post about bags in my blog, my site hits triple. I guess there are more baghags than shoe lovers out there?

I am obviously charmed by the new Charm Collection by Coach though.

I am a fan of soft leather bags and this Charm Collection is known for its butter-soft leather. The newsletter I received says the bags have

chunky chain detailing, butter-soft leather, and a sweet detachable coin purse for good luck

While I am not excited about the small pockets, this drew my attention:

Unfortunately it is straw and white. So no way for me to maintain a bag like that.

Check out hottie Hugh Jackman’s Lipton Iced Tea commercial above — I love a man that can dance!  And I never knew he can dance! Imagine a 6’3” man doing footwork like that – isnt he awesome?
