I love the classic LV monogram leather. I’m not into designer bags kasi so there’s less motivation for me to save up for a bag. I like big bags and i make them “harabas” so it will be a risk if u buy an expensive designer bag. I’m not into designer bags because when I was growing up my mom had vintage Gucci’s, LV’s and Chanel’s from my lola and my mom was giving me the idea that it was somehow a status symbol if you have that kind of bag. The expensive classic bag that I have is the Ralph Lauren green and blue plaid speedy and bucket bag. But since there are A LOT of replicas out there, it’s disheartening na to buy a real one. I can just imagine how those women feel if they have the authentic bag and see another woman using a fake one. I actually get turned off when I go to Greenhills and see those bags. A friend of mine bought her LV in Greenhills for 1,500 (from 2,500) she was so proud that she was able to haggle that much, but what she didn’t realize is that it’s kinda “nakaka-hiya” to use something that you know is fake… Sorry it’s so long! first time! haha!

It’s so common, my ex is embarrassed to use it. Nice bag nevertheless.

[...] in Baguio? Where do you usually shop? What sort of things do you usually buy? P.S. I found an LV Speedy MiniLin for Php 12,500.00 and a gorgeous Chanel quilt & chain shoulder bag for Php 13,500.00 there. [...]

The LV bags are great but they’re really pricey… it’s just really a big turn off seeing all those fake ones though… it strips off the real one of some class…

The real deal is fab! But I see a lot of fakes, and it really turns me off! I don’t have enough moolah to buy myself an LV (on my student allowance? no way!), but at least I don’t go around buying cheap versions of it. That’s patronizing ‘bag piracy’, know what I mean?

Love the bag but too many people have it that it turned me off. Lots of gross imitations on “stylish” arms that it makes me want to vomit. Ew.

I like the mini-lin more than the mono and personally, I’d go for the bigger one. Lucky you!

DOF setting F 1.8 If your P/S settings can be manually set or is built with such, you can make your background blurry. Usually on Macro mode. Hope that helps.
