Baggie bags woes

Guess I have been too deprived of new bags recently (Well, I can't splurge every other month as I need to save up for my new home and wedding). I kept having the urge to buy a bag. A nice bag. But at the same time, I don't want to spend a few thousand dollars on one (though I really like Prada and Chanel..arghhhhhhh):(

I am thinking of getting the good old speedy with a nice bag charm as I had always like speedy but didn't get it all these years as a zillion people are carrying it. But, as I am on a budget, speedy is cheap! and I like the combination of the beige leather against the iconic canvas.

But what Mdm Boo said set me thinking as she mentioned that I do not have a proper bag (aka boring and dull and down to earth) for job interviews (which I may be going in future). All my current bags are way too loud for interviews :(

Hence, if I am not getting the good old speedy, which bag should I get?

Before I show you'll all the boring bags, I came across this interesting bag from Diane Von Furstenberg :)


 I personally like the colors and the style of the bag.

Now to the proper and cooperate and down to earth bags. I can't decide as there are quite a few ones on the market.

Mulberry Hayden tote


This is a classic simple tote bag from Mulberry. The color is certainly boring but I guess this is more 'tone down' and would be fine for interviews. But then again, this bag comes in a nice purple too!

It looks so much nicer right?????

I am also looking at the following designs...

The Alexa! Though it doesnt look all that fantastic in brown..But it's still not too bad.

Basic Miu Miu bags. Not too loud and expensive.

And lastly,

Bottega Veneta. This is the brand's signature design. Nice??? It's simple and classy.

I seriously can't decide what bag to get. Any suggestions?

Busy Sunday Busy BB

BB had been real busy recently because he needs to rush his work for his upcoming trip in June. As many of you had already know, he is going away for 4 months. Yes, it's gonna be a looooonng long 4 miserable months for me :(

He is so busy that he went back to office to rush his work on a Sunday. After his friend's baby shower, we bought some snacks and went back to his office. It is my first time in his office and I finally saw his boring work desk. Hahhaha..


His work desk is very boring. Nothing interesting..no interesting cards, no snacks..just tons and tons of paper. But I found this plasticine aeroplane on his friend's desk and BB says he's the one who moulded it!

My BB is quite creative after all. Hahahha! Then I decided to spice up his boring desk calendar with my ugly drawing :p






I was doodling on both our birth dates. He had marked down mine but his own date is empty. So I drew that onto his date (and I doubt he saw it cause he didnt flip the page over to the month of June) as he will be out at sea on his birthday :(

As I was exploring around, I found a 'treasure chest'!



Guess what's inside???

Taaaaaaaaaaaadaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!


A treasure chest full of snacks and with more spilling out on the other side! Quite cool right? To have a 'treasure chest' to store all the goodies instead of lying them around.

While BB is slogging away, I am having quite a good time eating, snacking and drinking my favourite bubble tea and of course, updating my blog. Hahahaha..

Hope BB is able to finish his work early and we can go back home ^^
