My Favorite Designer Bags: 2022 Edition♥

I just want to share 5 of my favorite designer bags.  I am not rich and not sharing this to brag... (Sharing this to inspire those who dreams of having their own designer bag).  I really saved up in order to afford these bags.  

It's every girl it's a dream to have a least one Louis Vuitton bag or Chanel bag.  Well, Chanel bag is a dream... (and still is...)

1. Louis Vuitton Montorgueil in PM size or simply the LV Monty.  - This tops the list of my favorite because it's my first luxury and Louis Vuitton bag.  I got this in 2015 and is already discontinued.  So this is a collector's piece already.  I have also shared a review of this years back: Louis Vuitton Monty .

2. Prada Tesutto B1843M - What I love about this bag is that it's lightweight and very spacious.  This was also my first Prada bag, I have doubts at first of getting this because it's nylon - but I realized it was worth it.  It's very versatile - you can use it as a hand bag, shoulder bag and cross body.  I also use this for work and when I travel because it's spacious and lightweight.

3. Marc Jacobs Snapshot - I'm not really into small or tiny bags, because I carry lots of things. But I really fell in love with it's design and the classy way you can carry it.  This has become my errands bag since then especially when I need to buy things in the grocery.  

4. Katre x Hello Kitty Camden Tourist bag - Katre is a local bag line owned by Kat Erro.  I just learned about this local brand when they collaborated with Sanrio (Hello Kitty).  Aside from having a Hello Kitty print in the bag I love this bag because it fits a lot of stuff and it's a two way bag.  I also wrote a review on this : Katre x Hello Kitty Camden Tourist bag

5. Furla Tessa Tote - I got this during our Japan trip.  Aside from its color (pink) that I love, it will always bring back wonderful memories of my first Japan travel.  I also made a review of this bag in my previous posts: The Furla Tessa Tote    

How about you? Do you have a favorite bag? You can share it on the comments below...

Golden in 2022♥

Happy 2022 everyone!  

This is my first post for the year.  Actually I was planning to post something on the first week of January, but unfortunately a lot of things happened.  My nephew got sick (his family is living with us), and our family doctor advised us to isolate for 10 days.  He did not required us to have an antigen test anymore, because we are all fully vaccinated (and majority of us have been boosted).  I am super worried also because I have senior parents but "Praise God!" that they did not get sick or had any symptoms (that's why - vaccines really help!).

Quarantine Celebration:  I never thought that I will celebrate my 50th birthday on isolation.  When the pandemic started last 2020 I was very optimistic that by 2022 we will be back to normal.  Unfortunately,  we are still in this situation, I was hoping to celebrate my birthday even with my family and close relatives.  (Since the cases last December was low).  I was broken hearted at first but I realized that there are a lot of things that I should be grateful for.

Had a simple celebration with my family, I just ordered food at Contis.. I also received surprises from my relatives and friends: food from my Tito Ric , Tita Baby and family, balloons  from my cousin Cha, fruits from Elmira.

Next day, my friends in the US celebrated my birthday there... they meet up and had video chat with me while they were having dinner... it was very heartwarming.

I also received a lot of birthday wishes on my social media accounts.

My heart is so full... Thank you so so much!♥

There are still a few weeks before this month ends.. 

But hopefully everything will be okay...

Ooops... my wish?

I don't really ask for any material things...  For the past years I always wish for - all our wishes to come true... Healing for those who are sick, Strength for those who are going through a lot and suffering and Love for those who feel that they are unloved or neglected.  

I realized when you get older... you become more sensitive to the people around you and just wanted happiness for all. 

xo,
