How many branded bags do you owe? Is it a waste of money to buy branded bags?


i spent 2.8K on two pairs of Louboutins last month .... the most expensive pair of shoes i have ever bought!! but i love them ...
 
cuclainne, what designs were those? did you buy a classic or seasonal design? did you get them from the local shop or from the website?
 
i got them from the local store at NAC cos i wasn't sure of my size. Now that I am, it would be cheaper to get it online from places like stanley korshak, etc ... i wasn't expecting to spend that amount of money but the staff who served me was THAT good ... lol ..

i got the Prive slingback and pumps .. i think these are classic designs.
 
i think so too!

Hi! Haven't come in here for sometime.

I lurve shoes too but I can't find any that fits cuz I've got flat and big feet. Size 8 (sometime 9 in different cuttings). Flats is totally out for me unless I wear pants to cover the tops of my feet. Cuz they look fat and spoil the shoes' look. Any recommendations for flat feet?
 
little poppets ... i'm a size 9 and i prefer wearing flats cos more often than none, i have to chase after my children and hard to do that in heels. omg, just placed an order for another CL but this time ordering flats ...
 
I have like many pairs of shoes but I just can't wear heels

Somehow, I just can't walk elegantly in heels - I'll trip or fall flat on my face. I think I'm a man trapped in a woman's body man!!

Anyway, I have mainly sports shoes, platforms, wedge shoes, bowling shoes, slippers, crocs & court shoes. For me, comfort is very important. I'm the type who always kenna bunions or blisters. So far, I like Clark shoes, Everbest and Asics. Ahhh...I should add that my favourite pair which I seldom wear these days would be my wedding shoes from leapin lizard!

I think everyone will say I am nuts or shopaholic or spendthrift if I were to write down wat I owned! Whenever HB knows I am hurt by my in laws, he will buy a bag to make me happy. Might as well give me cash better right? But its still very sweet to receive expensive pressies until now.

Buying branded is a waste of money but it definitely makes me happy! Hmmm... I just find that a branded bag or watch is able to make the whole outlook different. When I wear slacks to work and threw on a branded cruise bag, it just look presentable enough for work. There is once I wore a $10 giordarno tank top with a givenchy nightingale, a neighbour asked me if I got the tank top from CK basics as she seen one over the weekend and considered to buy it or not. Get what I mean?

I find that they represents status in certain way. Just like cars and where people live, strangers look at them differently.

Its that realistic at times lo...

I must admit I feel good whenever notice what bag and wat top I am wearing. Dun bombard me pls! Hehe!
 
hi Missy, i giggled at your last sentence.. about the bombarding.. hehehe.. well, i must agree with u to a certain extent. when u mentioned abt the branded bag with gio tank top :p its realistic true but what to do, thats life (shrugs shoulders)

anyway, i heard from my gf that those coloured miumiu bags will fade after awhile (like 3 mths) cos she ever has one and fade only after 1 month and went back to miumiu shop who offer to do a colour wash for her.. but after servicing, the fading still remains the same and they then offer to change to a black one... her other colleagues who r carrying the same coloured ones also have the same problem

how disappointing cos i am intending to save up for this miumiu bag as i like the princessy look of it.. anyone hving miumiu coloured bags with the same problem also?

other than Coach & KS.. what other "branded" bags are worth to buy? for everyday use one .. not too exp else very stress when carry out :p
 
nothing to bombard lah. You just admit the shallow bit about yourself. We don't need to be so deep always anyway. And there are those that would condemn out of sour grapes as well.

But, if that's all you value in life, then seriously, you have issues liao.
 
have a few branded stuff but I don't think much about them really. not crazy over them, I do have heartland brands as well.

don't think buying branded stuff will make u a higher 'class' above the rest...its so common nowadays.
 
sailor, miu miu really give such problem? wah.. i didnt noe tat. my beige miu miu so far ok leh, just that it is easily creased after few use.

Those LV classic can buy for rough use if you have the budget, it dun get dirty that easily. And my damiers looked almost the same after 2 years. Not as princess looking as miu miu for sure.. but definitely good for everyday use.
 
miu miu uses alot of gold, feels more queenie than princessy... it's quite popular with prc/hongkee women in their late 30s early 40s... so if u looking for princessy feel, may not be the best all-round.
 
It's ok to buy it because you like it. But it's pathetic to buy because you like the attention it brings. People who are envious of a handbag are not folks you want attention from.
