My New LV Empreinte Petillante Clutch

Isn't she gorgeous? When I undressed her (take her out of the box and the dustbag), she took my breath away and soon the smell of the famous Empreinte leather seduced my senses. I actually bought this bag last week but only have the time to write a review now.

I have always been a handheld and a clutch bag kinda girl. Shoulder and cross-body bags never really appeals to me. I think it's because they look too casual for my liking. The first time I really like to carry a clutch for day was when I got my Alexander McQueen DeManta clucth then I really started to fall in love with clutches when I got my Balenciaga envelope clutch. Then I bought my LV Eva for clubbing butunfortunately she's too small to carry all my artillery.

DeManta and Balenciaga Envelope are nice but they are flat so it's kinda difficult to bring a lot of this in them coz all the stuff that I always carry with me make them look bulgy. When I went to LV shop in Cologne to get my Speedy I saw this clutch on the display but she hadn't called my name yet. Then I saw on youtube this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdDZxFtdBN8 suddenly I felt like I was hypnotized! I gotta have her!!!

So here she is sitting on my desk looking hot and sexy! The bag is actually very functional. The size is 27cm x 16cm x 10cm. She has two outer pockets with a zipper each, inside there are a cellphone pocket and a lipstick pocket, and under the flap, there's a leather pocket. Empreinte leather is actually a calf skin with caviar texture and embossed LV monogram. To see how the leather is processed, please have a look at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQ00ZbKrp8c&feature=related

The color of my bag is called Flamme, it's a burgundy/brownish dark red. The color is actually neutral and can be paired with any color that I have in my closet. Inside, the bag is lined with cotton textile. 

I'm so glad I got this clutch. I guess LV Alma Vernis PM has to wait to be in my closet!

My New LV Denim Bandeau in Cherise

It's my Prada Saffiano Fori bag's birthday today so I bought her, errr, my self an LV bandeau as a birthday present. The name might say Denim but it's 100% silk. It's sooo smooth and silky (DUH!). Today I wore it as a girl-tie. Yep, I knotted the bandeau around my neck the way men knot their ties and it actually looks good! But it should be looser.

I choose the color Cherise because it has some brown that would compliment my LV Speedy in Damier Ebene

This bandeau is very versatile. It can be worn as a scarf, bandana, bracelet, belt... The possibility is endless. I can also tie it on my Speedy bag as a bag charm!

For autumn I will buy the scarf version. That or Logomania wool scarf.

My New Louis Vuitton Eva

I actually bought the bag about three weeks ago but I only have the time to post it now. I saw this bag first time when I bought my Speedy but it was in monogram pattern. Then a week later the rubber sealer on my Speedy handles peeled off so I had to return it. Louis Vuitton exchanged my Speedy with a brand new one, no questions asked (LV has the best customer service in my experience). That's when I saw this LV Eva in Damier Ebene. I fell in love instantly and a few days later I went back to the store and bought it. The size is actually small but somehow it fits all my essentials that I always carry with me when I go clubbing or partying. I love, love the bag. I could pair it with casual outfit, party outfit or formal outfit. I love the shoulder chain and also the cross-body strap. This tiny little clutch has multifunction. Available at LV stores world wide. It's one of their classic line that will always be available no matter what season.

 

My Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene Speedy 30

I never understood what the craze about Louis Vuitton Speedy until I my self got one. I never thought I would buy it actually because there are so many fakes out there and I had always been afraid that people would think I carry a fake bag. But I saw this lady carrying one and she looked so lovely and the bag set off her style. She had a trench coat on with a pair of Louboutin heels. She just looked so modern yet effortlessly chic. Then I thought why not? I really liked the bag so I bought one from LV Cologne, Germany. I'm so in love with the bag now. And I don't care if people think I'm carrying fake because I know I'm not and people who actually own LV bags would know that mine is authentic.

My New Miu Miu Matelasse Clutch in Brown!!!

I tried to order this clutch from Miu Miu website but somehow I have a long address and I couldn't write it all there. So I figured that maybe a Miu Miu shop could help. I wanted it in black but it seems like it's sold out everywhere, even in all Miu Miu shop in Germany. When I called Miu Miu Frankfurt, they only had one in Brown so yeah I thought it should look nice as well and maybe it's lastbetter than black. So ordered one last week and it came today! For a clutch the bag is medium size 25x17 cm. It's not too big but it's big enough to put whatever I need during the day. As you can see in the second picture I could load my passport, MAC Studio Fix Powder, L'Oreal lipstick, two cellphones, a coin purse, eye liner and eye shadow, and a small bottle of foundation. I can use the clutch as a day or evening bag. This is so practical!

My BCBGgirl Heels!

I was so bored and felt kinda lonely so I cleaned up my closet. Instead of skeletons, I found these gorgeous BCBG shoes that I haven't worn for ages. These actually one of the first pairs of shoes I've bought in Germany. But I do remember why I stopped wearing them. The front part of the soles had rubbed off. I took them out of my closet and brought them to the cobler and had them re-soled. Voilá! They're as good as new.
By the way the heels are 12cm high! The shoes are of good quality and they are very comfortable. Will be wearing them for a party this week-end. All eyes would be on my feet!

My Jimmy Choo Mahala

This is my new bag. It's Jimmy Choo Mahala from 2008 with liquid patent leather. I got this bag last week actually. I won it from an auction on Ebay for only 250 Euro! The bag is perfect except that there are some peelings on the handles but that what makes it special and it's a proof that the bag was loved (carried a lot, lol). The bag is heavy but hey, to look good is to suffer! Hahahaha.....
I also love the fact that there are multiple pockets inside of the bag. This bag is sexy, kinda reminds me of green snake. Never thought I would say a green snake is sexy!
