New Video // About Time Too

24 March 2013

How's your weekend going? I've been lazy for a pretty large portion of mine and I won't lie, boy has it been goooood!

I did upload a review of my Pashli Satchel to YouTube though. I realise it's been an actual eternity since I did a video (not that I did a lot back then either!) but when I tried to find a review of this bag before I got it, I couldn't. So, I thought I'd get back into YouTube by making one. So, anyone considering a Pashli can now have a proper look and hear a bit more about it. If that's you, or you'd just  like to hear my thoughts on it (plus a fair  amount of rambling), check it out!! I'm also going to try and make videos a little more regularly since I have a bit more free time these days, so if you'd like to, go ahead and subscribe - HERE!

I hope everyone has a lovely Sunday! Stop by again tomorrow for the last of my Dubai diary posts!

The Mystery Box Revealed // Phillip Lim Pashli Satchel

4 March 2013

I'm back from my trip to the UAE. And yes, the post-holiday blues have already set in! Of course, being re-united with Stevie meant I was always going to have an awesome time, but the whole trip exceeded my expectations. Each and every minute was brilliant. If you follow me on Instagram you'll have seen a bit of what I got up to. I'm going to do a series of posts about the trip, like a mini-diary showing you what I did, wore and saw.

But, whilst I sift through the zillion photos I took, I thought I'd show you what was in the mystery box that featured in my last post. I was thrilled to finally open it and find out that it was a Phillip Lim White Pashli Satchel - a bag I'd been coveting for some time! You may remember my Christmas Wish List included the black with gold hardware and I wrote a post about white bags with this included, too.

White Washed // Opinions Please

3 February 2013

With spring just around the corner and a vacation to Dubai at the end of this month, it's got me thinking about my spring/summer wardrobe. I know it's only just February but the weeks fly by and it'll be warming up in no time. I for one, can't wait to get out my brights and florals again! 

One thing that's a staple in my S/S wardrobe is a white bag. I have one that I bought years and years ago and it barely left my arm for several summers. I find that a white bag is the summer equivalent of a black bag, a must have that will go with just about any outfit. Although mine has been a firm favourite for a long time, it's come to the point where it no longer actually looks, well....white! And that my dears, means it really is time for me to move on.

So with a little upgrade in mind I've been browsing the Internet for some possible options. I spotted a Prada (here) that would be AH-mazing but that's not a realistic option, unless I cancel my Dubai trip!

These are a few of my favourite contenders:

Rebecca Minkoff MAC white Pashli Phillip Lim Alexander Wang Rocco

1  //  3.1 Phillip Lim Pashli Satchel - Top of my list currently, the Pashli has become extremely popular, especially in the blog world. I love the structured look and the textured leather which gives it a bit more staying power since it won't look scuffed or scratched as easily.

2  //  Rebecca Minkoff Mini Mac Bag - The perfect bag to sling over your shoulder, day or night. I'd like a MAC bag, since I don't have one yet, but I'm not sure it's big enough...?!

3  //  H&M White Tote - Plenty of structure and size like the Pashli at about a tenth of the cost. It'd sure save me some dollar!

4  //  Alexander Wang Rocco - Another bag that's become famous in the blogsphere. It's the studded base that makes me love this!

5  //  Brand Village Tassel Bucket Bag - Something a bit different from other bag shapes I have. I love  anything with tassels too.

6  //  Steve Madden Fringed Bag - Yeh...there is just something about tassels that I do love. Probably not the most versatile choice though, what do you reckon?

7  //  3.1 Phillip Lim 31 Hour Bag - This bag just looks so sleek and clean. I love the simplicity of it. Do you think it's too plain though?

8  //  Rebecca Minkoff Triangle Perf MAC Bag - This bag is a unique re-style of the classic MAC, I love the laser cut detailing. Still not sure it's big enough though.


So ladies, this is where you come in, I'd love to hear your thoughts on them. Which one's your favourite and which one do you reckon would make a good summer staple for me?


I hope everyone has had (or is ) a wonderful weekend!
