in the post

it is quite a busy week for the postbox...well, the only snag is there is no postcard.

firstly, i finally got the small but packed envelope from regent in hk. she sent some of the photos in her camera from our april trip to hk and a facial mask. the photo of that woman has officially become my favourite photo of the year...lol. is it tres chic or what??? and this is the only one i have got in full length. finally those boots manage to make it into a photo. thanks to her candid shots without our knowledge that i get this. wahahahaha

next, after 2 weeks. my birthday present for myself this year. just a flimsy card but really a big step and meaningful one. dad is bugging me to get his as well since he lost it few years ago when he lost his wallet. i will just print the form and send it for him again. have you signed yours?

lastly, the biggest and most extravagant sent via ups and with an extra charge on duty fee. dang it! but luckily after conversion and all, still cheaper...i think...most probably lah.
actually i ordered a bayswater denim during their presale (10% extra ontop of the 30% given). they had even deducted the amount from my bill but there was no news of the item after one week. hence i mailed them and they told me that they made a mistake in their stock check. so they refunded my money and promised me 10% discount on my next purchase in the same month with free carriage fee thrown in. how to resist??? so these are what i got all the way from the uk.............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................


a small bayswater clutch in natural leather and a key ring. gulp...mom already gave me a scolding so dun talk to me about that. but the leather is really gorgeous...so supple and of course natural. haha.
i tried to get the price in rm by calling their boutique in klcc but they dun have it in stock yet, so no price. but they told me the price of the denim bayswater (already out of stock) and i compared with the price i got in the uk, it is definitely much cheaper even after postage and duty, the price in british pounds. so i feel relieved. i lurve mulberry for their classic design and almost logoless bags. so understated. one of these days have to make a visit to their boutique and ask about leather care.
this aint the first mulberry. there is another one bought i think 2 years ago...also natural leather but bigger and boxier...and also brown. i dunno what it is with me and brown but brown leather looks the most natural. lv speedy is in brown. fossil clutch in brown. esprit shoulder bag in brown. big calf leather bag bought in hk in the photo above also in brown. is yellow in the same category? bottega sling bag in canary yellow.
luckily i have a red working bag to brighten up the muted colours. hmmh...gimme money and i will get either a blue or grey balenciaga. hahaha....
save save save. there goes all my savings. can't help it. have to eat my own words. remember me talking about no shopping earlier? shoot me. but at least i buy with discounts and not at retail price. like that is a big relief huh?
