Bags 101: My Valentine Dilemma :-)
If I’m dreaming, don’t wake me up…
Last night, hubby and I were strolling after dinner (HHWWPSSP), and as usual we were talking about many things… Then he asked me what I wanted for Valentine’s Day… I couldn’t think of anything because I never really thought much about Valentine’s Day, except that we had already made plans for a dinner date…
Hubby: ”What do you want nga?”
Me: ”Nothing, really… uhmm, anything…” (I’d be happy with flowers, though.)
Hubby: (After 1 hour of prodding) “Ok just pick your choice… bag, necklace, or bracelet?”
Me: “Bag?? You just gave me a bag for Christmas…” (my thoughts zoomed back to our closet and apartment.. hmm not much space for an extra bag…)
Hubby: ”Are you sure you don’t want an LV bag?”
Me: ”LV bag?! Are you serious? That’s expensive!” (crossed my fingers in my pocket)
Hubby: ”So?”
Me: (Pakipot for 30 mins.) “uhmm.. well I guess it’s now or never.. ok, ba-a-a-g??”
Hubby: *smiles* “I knew it! Ok let’s buy it this weekend.”
And I thought to myself:
“Whoah, that soon? I’m not ready yet… I need lessons in Bags 101… Uh-oh, I AM clueless.”
A signature bag is something that I have always secretly wanted… something that I knew I would someday want to buy, but it wasn’t really my priority so I never went into stores like LV, Chanel, Gucci, Balenciaga etc. to check the hottest designs (except a few minutes in Louis Vuitton Champs Elysees, where the salesperson didn’t really bother to attend to me haha)…
(PONDER-MODE: During lunch, I went into my ponder-mode, and asked myself what I really wanted… But what I really, really want is too difficult to have coz only God can grant it… I want only ONE thing, and that’s good health for my parents and our whole family. I would not think twice of dropping LV’s and signature stuff in exchange for my loved ones good health…)
BUT for now… who would say no to Louis Vuitton?
So, I have to find MY PERFECT BAG soon. All I know is that I like bags that are sturdy, simple, not too fancy, not much frou-frous and blings, classic, and in plain colors that would go well easily with different clothes.
Something that I won’t outgrow for a loooong time. Maybe not necessarily LV. That’s negotiable.. hehe.. Would love to hear your tips and advice!
I feel so lucky with my hubby… I wasn’t expecting this coz he’s usually very practical… Hmmm.. he must be very happy with the food I cook for him… Nah.. he must really love me. Awww…
Uh-oh.. here comes Dilemma #2… I can’t think of anything to give him for Valentine’s! ;P
