My first encounter with Longchamp was 2 decades ago




I knew Longchamp for more than 2 decades ago when for the first time my dad bought my mum a Longchamp leather satchel. At that time I was still a high school student;) I remembered that the leather of my mum's bag was very supple and the style was classic. It was my mum's favourite bag.

Fast forward to 2006, My husband and I was travelling to Europe (Italy and France) and we had a stop at Longchamp's counter at Galeries Lafayette in Paris. It was during a summer sale and the Longchamp sale was simple crazy in terms of prices (so so cheap). And I saw an huge Le Pliage bag in shocking pink colour that drew my attention instantly and it was sold at an unbeatable price (soooo cheap, but I can't recall how much was it :p). Before getting the bag to the cashier counter I remember that I was thinking on how it would be a very handy bag to carry our extra stuffs back home. Hence without further thinking, I bought the bag which later I found out that I bought the extra large le pliage.
The bag was immediately used during our return journey to our hometown and I observed that how durable the bag material was. Well the bag got minor marks on its nylonm but it was acceptable as the bag was put in as checked in luggage.
Since then, I highly acknowledged the bag from Longchamp and gradually started to get the bag for my collection, until now.

Now, I am on a mission to collect Longchamp's special edition bags and I hope I can achieve my aim. *thanks to ebay and online shops*

Balenciaga FW11 Colours

Balenciaga Work Nuage RGGH









I have been a Balen addict in the past 2 years. My collection has been growing tremendously by 1 one year of obsession. Iut at one point of time, I started to cut back. Yes, It was at the peak of my collection where I had "seven teen" Balenciaga bags in various styles and (of course) colours. Yup, no typo here, it was 17 Balenciaga bags like a year ago *big grin*
Now I only have 10 Balenciaga bags where I keep the styles and colours that I favour most. But the 10 Balenciaga bags were only yesterday statistics, as I Just acquired a brand new Work Nuage in Rose Gold Giant Hardware.
Bought from HGBags and Nuage happens to be the hottest colour from S/S11 collection. It was not a love at first sight. But rather I took quite some time to consider whether I should go to this colour.
But when I opened the box today, I was so speechless Nuage is so pretty. So, definitely there was no regret *smiling*

Hence, as per today, I have only 11 Balenciaga bags. I plan to take the family pics, but I simply too busy nowadays and have no time to do it......
