H&M in Hong Kong

Yes, my dear friends, H&M will open their first store in Asia on March 10, 2007 at Queen's Road, Central, HK

Shriek!!!!!!!! Finally, an H&M store within our reach!

H&M is set to open another store in Shanghai Spring of 2007

Here's my shameless open letter:

• Dear Retail Giants in Manila,
  
  Please take this opportunity to consider franchising H&M as they are now willing to expand in Asia.
  
  Filipino’s would love to have H&M alongside Topshop and Zara.
  
  Love,
  Shopgirlmanila
  

Fox Trot

Talk about serious traffic-stopping stilettos
Christian Louboutin’s coming strong spring 2007; this “Fox Trot” Louboutin peep toe is fierce, its strong stance on a too-tall heel, its silver piping highlighting a bad boy black patent leather.

Christian Louboutin's Yoyo Zeppa slingbacks in nude patent with white raffia platform. Very pretty, though I can imagine how hard it is to keep the white raffia platform - white; especially with the pollution here in Manila

Other drool-worthy Louboutin's

Arm candy withdrawals

• Withdrawal - The act or process of withdrawing, as:
  a. A retreat or retirement.
  b. Retreat of a military force in the face of enemy attack or after a defeat.
  c. Detachment, as from social or emotional involvement.
  d. A removal from a place or position of something that has been deposited.
  e. Discontinuation of the use of an addictive substance.
  f. The physiological and mental readjustment that accompanies such discontinuation.
  

My situation would have to be both c & f.

Yup, you read it right – The thought of losing the Goyard St. Louis bag is giving me nightmares.

Just got back from a Christmas Holiday and I can’t stop thinking about the green St. Louis PM that I so wanted BUT didn’t get to buy. I went back to the store 2 times - thinking, contemplating... Boohoo…

Though now I think I’d rather get the blue one. Whatyathink?

The St. Louis is so ME, it’s functional and big enough to carry my life around.

I’ve lived by the rule my mom taught me – “When shopping and you see something that gives you butterflies in your stomach but you’re not quite sure if you need another bag/ shoes (or if you can’t afford it) put the item on hold and sleep on it, if the next day your stomach still cringes from the thought of it, then it’s time to BUY”

And yes, the bag is haunting me and giving me nightmares. Perhaps, the bag is not meant for me, at least for now… *wink*

Happy New Year everyone!

Love the clothes, Hate the hair

I never thought I'd say this but I LOVE LOVE Mary Kate's outfit. Love the clothes, the shoes, the bag, EVERYTHING! I love it!

She's over her "Feed-me-im-homeless" look

She looks all grown up now...

The Azur has landed

In light of the baghags poll on new bag purchases…

I finally got the bag I’ve been lusting for the looongest time!! I fell in love with the Damier Azur the first time I saw it about 4 months ago. And I couldn’t be happier and more satisfied with my new bag purchase! I love it to bits!

I highly recommend it to fellow bag lovers, especially those who feel like the Monogrammed and Damier canvas is too matronic for their taste =)
