shopping life lives on and some random things

Though I may have not updated my shopping trips here, rest assured that I am still up for it. Because I believed that once a shopper will always be a shopper. But that does not mean I really have to buy loads of items but maybe a few. Just so you know!

Anyway, for the the record I am proud to announce to the world that I bought a new purse. Its from Louis Vuitton-- Speedy 35 in damier. Just google for pics because I am very lazy to take pictures of it. The reason why I bought it is because I told my sister that I had been working too much I need to compensate myself for doing so. Besides that, I've been nice to my folks back home since I tried to convince our father to see a doctor for a general check up to check him if there's anything that needs to be address with his health. My persistence paid off, he went to the doctor and agreed for executive check up-- he spent 2 days in the hospital diligently following every test the doctors had ordered for him. Thank God!

So, after my dad's successful hospital stay, I drove down to AC pier mall, where designer items priced from $500 and above are being displayed! hhahahah I felt like I am a wanna be Joneses! Then I decided to pick something from LV. Gen & Mel went with me too and we both shopped like we have tons of money!

on to shopping note

My close friends knew me as a shoe loving gal, ohh well its every woman's trait I think. For the love of shoes my closet is filled with numerous pairs of different footwear designs. Back then when I wasn't working yet, I limit myself on buying shoes, I see to it that I have the money to pay for. I saved from my weekly allowance and from the remainder of our weekly household budget. Now that I am working, I splurge, everytime I see a nice looking pair I would never think twice.

During my days off, I am frequent to the mall, Macy's and Nordstrom are my favorite places to shop. I also shop at my favorite boutiques like Guess by Marciano, Bebe, BCBG, CK, Ann Taylor... to name a few. I am more of a shoe and purse, unlike J my closest friend, she is more of jewelries and watches. Majority of my frequent purchases recently are shoes and dresses. I wear them few times and send back home when I felt tired of the item. Purse is different I keep them except the coach handbags which I already outgrew, I only kept 2 handbags for sentimental reasons. I once mentioned to my sister that coach no longer entice me. As a matter of fact she asked my first Marc Jacob purchase but I refused because it was the last item of its kind. I told her if she wants me to buy a different one but she don't want rather asked me to buy an Ipad  which I agreed but not right away.

Right now I am saving for my dream handbag as it costs my entire month's pay. I'll buy it for my birthday. Since I had been working a lot lately I bought quite few interesting pieces which deserve another blog entry with pictures of course.
