Here are some of the things that you can find in the collection:  The merchs comes in white, blush, black, green and red.  Price starts at SG$39.00 Satchel : SG$329.00 Top handle : SG$349.00 Train case : SG$329.00 Genki Tote: SG$39.00 Mobile Phone bag : SG$169.00 Slim wallet : SG$99.00 Micro bag : SG$199.00 How can you not drool about these cuties?  The te...

This year new versions tiny bag came out... and they don't really come cheap.  They are either the tiny version of the luxury brand's classic bags and most of them can only fit your AirPods.   Chanel Micro Vanity bag  source: Google.com Chanel AirPods case necklace & belt source: Google.com source: Google.com Chanel micro flap bags source: Google.com Micro Lady Dior bag source: Google.com Micro Lady Dior Vanity case source: Google.com Micro Dior Caro bag source:flaunt.com Micro Dior Saddle bag source: flaunt.com Gucci Micro Marmont bag source: Google.com Gucci Micro Dionysus bag source: Google...

It's been a while since I shared a bag review.  If I could remember it right the last one was the Katre x Hello Kitty Camden bag.  It's a local brand here in the Philippines that collaborated with Sanrio / Hello Kitty they came up with this weekender but I used it for work as a documents bag.   Anyway, let's go back to business.. (haha)  This is a bag review for my Authentic Prada 1BC052.  I bought the bag in December 2018.   The Bag : Structured hobo pebbled leather bag with canvas strap (like a guitar strap) and gold hardware.  I really love bags with gold hardware.  Prada is one of the brands that has the best (gold hardware), I purchased my bag in 2018 and until now the gold hardware is still shiny, especially the zipper.  The multi colored canvas straps are detachable and adjustable.  You can wear it on your shoulder or cross-body.   Color : Noir / Black - when purchasing luxury or branded bags I usually go for black,...

Hello bagaholics!  One of the most coveted bags today - Marc Jacobs Snapshot Camera bag... Before I proceed on how to distinguish genuine from fake bag, here is a short review. The bag maybe small but it's really spacious.  It has two compartments: can fit a couple of things including a phone, car keys, a small wallet, compact powder and a lippy. Aside from wearing it as a shoulder or cross body bag you can also use it as a clutch. It's a versatile bag!♥ Authentic Marc Jacobs Logo strap Snapshot camera bag in Dust multi  Nowadays, those who produce fake bags can really make a 1:1 copy.   But when you look deeper and examine the bags you can really spot the difference.  Purchased both bags to compare.   1. Stitching  2. Brand leather stamping : The "Marc Jacobs New York" - notice the size, font and spacing of the letters. 3. Shape of exterior pocket  4.  Hardware: Metal stamping/engravin...
