1 Bag 6 Ways...

Chanel Flap Bag from Spring/Summer 2012 Pre-Collection
8.7" L x 6.3" H
Calfskin Flap Bag with modern "Mademoiselle" closure
2.6" W at the widest part
1. In the crook of your arm
2. On the shoulder
3. Cross Body one way...
4. Cross Body second way (21" space for arm/shoulder)
5. Clutch one way(double strap)
6. Clutch second way (waterfall effect)


My Verdict: Praiseworthy. This was a recent splurge for my birthday and I couldn't be more pleased! I love the versatility of the bag, colour and practicality. Hands free! Not so fond of the leather, while it's beautiful it definitely requires maintenance. I prefer the caviar leather instead, alas I had no luck with any in a similar colour way.

Try this out on any chain strap bags, I found a cute one here, black one here.

Birthday Getaway...


Inside the Getty Villa
Macarons from Bottega Louie
not the best I've had but the boxes were uber cute!
Prosciutto and Egg Croissant from Polo Lounge- I was starving hence there's only half pictured. I couldn't help myself and ate before I snapped away...
(on right)The yummy cheese and pepper bread, part of the bread basket. I had 3 slices!
Birthday night...Katsuya Hollywood
Favourite Drink from Katsuya: Watermelon Cucumber Fresh
Favourite Dish from Katsuya: Lobster Dynamite
Biggest Score: Jimmy Choo booties original price$1295, on clearance for $91!
Purchased at Saks Fifth Avenue Off 5th(sign up for their card to receive additional discounts) in Camarillo Outlet Mall
Pardon the pasty legs...Polish on toes: OPI Big Apple Red

My Verdict: Praiseworthy. I LOVE LA! Amazing food and shopping mecca! This time I was able to be a tourist and shop like a pro! For food, I definitely recommend Polo Lounge in the Beverly Hills hotel, and my favourite restaurant Katsuya. Many successes at the outlet malls and Rodeo, although the weather was not the best(I caught a cold!) would still recommend going in May.
