Bag Post | LongChamp and Furla
October 25, 2013
Long before I became fascinated to many things, I was first a shoe addict. In
fact if you read my About Me section, I briefly spoke about my Mom thinking I
can’t eat shoes when I’m starving. Well that is true in real life unless I
decide to become a real “shoe eater”. I still can’t resist buying shoes every
now and then when it suits me.
Then the unexpected thing happened. I suddenly started
adoring nice and pretty bags. I think this was passed on to me by my good friends
Marcy and JB whom I met when I used to work for an international bank. Marcy
owns a number of designer bags and JB too. As for me, except for some Kenneth
Cole, Mango, Esprit, Zara and Nine West bags, I don’t have much experience. I don’t have issues buying from
local designers either as long as:
- Probably a cross body bag is much better
- Fits my makeup kit, sunnies, umbrella (yeah, sue me!), keys, etc.
I am not a fan of small bags because I am tall and full
figured, unless I want to make that small bag much like a wallet or a purse beside
me (lol). Then I had a Le Pliage LongChamp in lavender last year. I loved it. Long
handle, roomy and durable.
Most of my money are well spent in traveling or makeup that’s
for sure. I don’t look at designer bags whenever I travel (obviously because
they are pricey).
But in my recent trip in Seoul, I decided to change the game
a little. I bought two designer bags from LongChamp and Furla. I bought the Limited Edition Longchamp Maroquinerie (LM) Tote at the duty-free shop shop at Incheon airport. This has a short handle. I realized
LongChamp bags are cheaper by 20- 30% in Seoul.
Furla however costs just the
same if you buy it anywhere (I bought mine at a duty-free shop in Gangnam).
I am very happy with them. Once I stop traveling maybe I can
afford to buy more! As they say, your bag says so much about you!
But heck, traveling is more fun!

What is your best bag buy so far?
