Christmas 2015


This was Mr. JS's xmas pressie....he sure lurves carmouflage to bits. From pants to shirts and accessories, he wanna be invisible in the jungle...*apparently or so* But Monkey told him nobody takes a Valentino into a jungle, prollie you will be the very first few. Ishhhh~~~~~~
This would be the second camouflage looking bag that Monkey got him. He was a eppy boy ripping the already bare minimum packaging coz I didn't have time to wrap it, and it was too huge and I refused to have its box coz it's just too bulky for me to carry onboard in Hong Kong.

The Dove added that extra detailing into this bag making it even more unique. Dove symbolise PEACE :)))) If u like this bag do visit ur nearest Valentino for this is a limited edition and comes in limited quantity, and they have doin their annual year end sale.

as for my xmas pressie, Mr. JS got me like 2 months before xmas LOL. For he has the tendency to do this all the time, be it birthday or xmas. For his philosophy is....have it early and enjoy it much more.


Lurve my limited edition Chanel Boy Brick Bag....it was the very very last piece at Chanel Rue Cambon so one gotta have it. It's alwiz a manic to shop at that particular boutique. So sometimes it's good to go next door and take a breather at Faure le Page. I guess it's only about time before consumers discover this brand too and begin the "takeover" craze.

and I've been using it, seen here with Hong Kong TVB star Johnson Lee during his recent show in Malaysia, sponsored by Hennessy VSOP. Seriously I need to educate myself and catch up with all these amazing talents from Hong Kong. Nevertheless it was a privilege to meet the man himself.

 
As for myself, I bought these dandy pairs of heels :))))) Hua Hua Hua gonna take them out soon :))) Just noticed that I've bought the same stuffs for Christmas 2014 for both JS and myself. A backpack and a pair of shoes.

Faure Le Page Calibre 21

I've finally got it...
after marvelling it and posting bout it in July *read here*, it has become my must have!!! So in mid July, Monkey was actually in Osaka and visited its store and to my dismay....they don't have the Calibre 21 for it's only available in Paris.

T_T
there's only 2 stores in the world...I hope they will have more stores soon.

Faure le Page started out as a firearm maker back in 1717. So that explains the lil cute gun on this bag. There were a few colors of choice and I guess dusty grey is so me right now :))) You can use it as a body over sling or even as a handbag. Love its versatility.

Object of Desire 0020: Faure le Page Calibre 21

My limited edition Cabas Daily Battle in Vert with yellow trimmings. She's so study and pretty at the same time!!!

Monkey & JS lived down the road from Rue Cambon in Paris, so passing down this road was mandatory no matter what bcoz we HAD to use this street to get home. Each walk, each stroll, there's so much to see along the windows.

See wat I mean? The mother store of Chanel with Madame Coco Chanel's apartment upstairs. But this trip, Chanel did not excite me....items that we wanted were sold out. That one month in Paris, we couldn't and didn't manage to spend with Chanel. Huahahahahaha.....so all those money were chaneled to...

oh well not far away...just next door
Faure le Page

You'll be surprised to know that Faure le Page started out as a firearms and gun-maker since 1717 for multiple revolutions. From King Louis to Bonaparte, Faure le Page is very highly regarded among the great writers of its time. One of them is Alexandre Dumas - remember the author of The Count of Monte Cristo?
*cropped pic of me working.....yes working....*

and bcoz I've hardly blog bout my purchases....I was thinking this would be a nice posting bcoz I am waiting for my next ownership of Faure le Page. This one was another special unique color combo of blue and yellow from the Petit Parade collection. I lurve it so much....elegant and yet fun at the same time. Works as a clutch or sling :)))) how versatile.


and bcoz Monkey was having so much fun shopping, JS decided he didn't wanna miss out and picked his working bag as well. It's seriously so so so so exquisite. The fact that the leather is hardy plus it's a semi canvas bag makes it much of of an everyday work bag.

JS was so eppy and as usual we ended up buying bags for each other to the delight of the shop assistant.

"Oh bonjour madame et monsieur!!!"
yes it's us again so what's new for the day? the danger of staying so near, we could just simply walk in everytime or just to have a cup of coffee and chitters chatters with the staffs there. 


next my eyes are fixed on these....:))))))))))
Faure le Page Calibre 21 which is available in the standard colors of blue, green, black, burgundy and light blue. It's so ME and so cute it's hard to say NO!!!

My first world problem now.....there's only ONE boutique in the whole wide world with 2 more pop up stores in Paris and Japan. So time to make visit(s) soon :))))
