Three-Way Purse from Oz

21 December 2007 1,126 views 7 Comments

Three-way Purse, Sister's GiftOne of the things I’m thankful for is having a sister who also has an eye for fashion, intentionally or not. Also, that she knows what sort of gift to give me. Hehe. On her recent visit to Manila, I got an early Christmas prezzy — a three-way purse that traveled all the way from Australia.

Let me explain why I called it that way. It’s because it can be used as a handbag, a shoulder bag or a purse or clutch (just take off the strap). I wish I can tell you guys what brand it is but there’s no tag to be found. Sorry.

Don’t you find it so stylishly versatile? Not to mention, very practical, too! I’m actually fond of using it the last few weeks cuz it’s so easy to carry around and, surprisingly enough, can actually store a lot of things, i.e. extra lens, wallet, notebook, cigarettes, etc. It’s the bag I used with my outfit for the Aoki night. Twas a great bag for clubbing!

Btw, I wouldn’t be surprised if shoulder bags make a come back. I spotted something similar last week over at Topshop, which costs around Php 1,500.00.

    Heh. An eye for fashion, huh? Probably unintentionally - since I just buy whatever I like. Heh. Hmmm… sounds like a blog-possibility: The Unintentional Fashionista. Hah.

    Anyway, glad the black bag’s still in good use. I really like that too. In fact, I wish I bought one for myself. Hehe.

    I forgot the name of the brand. It’s Aussie-made, I believe. I remember snipping off the tag because the price was on it. I just know it had an Aussie-made print on it. I’ll let you know if I ever get the chance to see the name again.

    Hey, that’s an interesting idea, I wonder how you’d develop it. You joining us at the Beauty & Style Channel, too? ;)

    How I wish I had more generous sisters. They’re pretty fashionable, though. I can drop a hint about this bag to my sissies and see where it’ll take me.
