Haha, just a teaser! Whilst I was at the sale, the Loewe boutique was also offering some great deals. I spotted this GORGEOUS bag – pure soft silk held together with a supple leather handle. Hobo-style, so it slouched beautifully.. and the color just sold me – a brilliant cheery blue that would look fantastic as a casual bag with jeans!

I’m not going to announce prices because I find it kinda annoying/tacky when random people point at me and ask me how much this costs and how much that costs – it’s all in really bad taste IMHO. Unless of course it was me that first told them the price πŸ˜› So I’m just going to say that the price was slashed by $1,200, THAT’S how good the sale was! Yay! I’m really happy with it and it’s quite a rare design, so at least if I get sick of it I can always sell it on eBay and probably end up selling it for more than what I paid πŸ˜› But for now, I don’t intend to sell it at all, as I just love it! More of the (standard) Loewe handbags here, if you’re interested.

No pics of me carrying it yet though.. too lazy πŸ˜›

The not-so-great thing about living away from my parents is that not only do I hardly see them, but I don’t really get a chance to take them out and buy/give them stuff πŸ™ So this time I gave Mum my Louis Vuitton Trouville because I think it looks nicer on her than it does on me πŸ˜› It’s classy and suits her!

But anyways, I found the PERFECT thing to get for our whole family – CROCS! I’d never really noticed them before.. or rather I had, but I thought they were UGLY πŸ˜‰ But this week, they released the new Capri style – which look fantastic and are so comfortable. Couldn’t resist and none of us have super-comfy flip flops, so it was well justified πŸ™‚


CROCS for the whole family, haha!

wow that bag IS really nice. it’s so spring/summer-y πŸ™‚ cute!

i’m surprised you didn’t buy the fuschia or the sea foam CROCS since you’re really into bright and bold colors πŸ™‚
but tan is good too…it goes with everything~

I don’t think I have a bright blue bag like this, so I’m really happy with it!

Ahh I was looking at the seafoam but they’d sold out at the sale πŸ™ But I got the brown ones because like you said, they’ll match with more clothes!

I love the bag! It looks just like a silk scarf, the way it ties at the handle πŸ™‚

And I hate the look of the Crocs clogs, but those ones look pretty cute πŸ™‚

It looks almost like a DIY bag which is cool πŸ™‚ The inside is lined though so it makes it a bit sturdier and the silk won’t get as dirty whew!

I agree, the regular Crocs look so strange, esp on my skinny feet. THese are so much nicer IMHO πŸ™‚

omg that is a truly gorgeous bag!!! and silk! omg how lovely! i love the color too, so perfect for spring and summer and it sounds like you got it for a great deal!

Re: Crocs..

The original rubber Crocs don’t fit me unfortunately πŸ™ But they’re sooo popular! I like their fun colors, heh

I find it kinda annoying/tacky when random people point at me and ask me how much this costs and how much that costs – it’s all in really bad taste IMHO

not to sound like a jerk, but i TOTALLY AGREE. i’ve always been shocked to see people asking you how much something costs…. ?!?! (see also: the impoliteness of asking someone how much their salary is!)

that bag is sooooooooooo cute… and i’m not even really into handbags/purses! πŸ™‚

Yeah :X I don’t mind if people ask for something that they’re about to buy themselves, and they want to make sure that they’re not being ripped off or anything. But I CANNOT STAND people that just ask for the sake of being nosy – ugh! πŸ™ Besides, if they want to know, it’s easy to look it up online to find out..

But thank you! I like how cheery the bag is, and it’s fairly informal too so I can wear it with jeans πŸ™‚

the bag is so pretty! its like a scarf bundled and tied together. ;D

and oh, i got my boyfriend a pair of crocs some time back and he loves it! but looks like i got to “update” his pair with this new design.

Yeah apparently it’s 3 scarves sewn together or something.. I just like how silky it feels πŸ˜›

The new Croc design is so nice! Just like normal flip flops, just that they feel a lot better. I’m scared off that chunky fat design πŸ˜›

i dont like the chunky one either, looks weird, plus there is so many imitation nowadays.

and oh, how much is the slippers? the one i bought was $52

What a beautiful bag! I was waiting to see what bag you bought and this one is just in such a happy colour and a happy design. Makes one smile just looking at it. Great find! And those crocs flip flops look comfy as well.

I was really surprised when I saw the header about Crocs, and was already preparing a snarky comment about how hideous they were (just kidding), but those are really nice! I actually do think that they are really comfy, but can’t quite bring myself to buy a pair of the ugly clogs. We also have very limited styles here too, so we never get any of the newer, slimmer styles. I like the store though, it looks so cheery!

Hahha I would’ve done that too – previously I’d sneered at Crocs, they just looked kinda ridiculous? I was quite shocked to see these Capris, they look totally normal, haha!

hey, the crocs are nice! Went to the website and saw the funky pink or blue ones! Shall go check it out at the shops!! =)

i don’t like the original crocs that look like clogs, but the new ones that are flip flops are way better looking and way more comfy…hee hee…

Me neither, the original crocs are really strange and ugly IMHO.. I was so surprised when I saw these new Capri style, as they look just like regular shoes

I don’t have any blue bags so this will be really different to my other bags, and I LOVE the silk πŸ™‚

You should get the crocs! But get at the isetan sale, 20% off

At both? πŸ˜› I was actually after the seafoam coloured Crocs, but they’d sold out. Then again, these brown ones are more wearable!

do you sling the loewe across your body. the straps do look good for that. gorgeous blue, totally you!

love those crocs capri you got!!!

Oooh that Loewe bag is cute! I couldn’t imagine paying the original price for it.. $1,200 off! Damn!

Are Crocs those ugglllyy plastic shoes with the holes in them, that everyone says are the most comfortable thing ever? lol. The thongs don’t look that bad though.. might get me a pair of them hehe.

The Loewe was such a bargain I just COULD NOT resist, haha! It’s such an unusual bag too, I love it πŸ™‚

And yes, crocs are those really ugly shoes πŸ˜‰ I’m glad now they look more normal!
