this week's simplicity tips

Oh my! I have completely forgotten to post this week's simplicity tips from My Simpler Life. This week has been the craziest and busiest ever for me. So, for those of you who left messages in my cbox asking for more personal updates, I'll get back to you with more, I promise hahah! Also, I'll catch up with your tags in a wee bit. I lost a few pounds because of my toxic schedule and looks like I took some weight loss pills because I never lost this much weight in a week's span. Anyways, here's your weekly dose of simplicity tips from My Simpler Life, we still have time to catch up over the weekend right?

I'm doing number 1, I have a huge purchase which I need to return. tsk tsk. bad bad. Next time, I purchase something big online, I should check out reviews about it before getting one.

1. Evaluate recent purchases, can you return any?
2. Build your life around what you have been called to give the world.
3. Can your word be trusted?
4. Think of some simple solutions to a nagging problem.
5. Decide not to look for what’s wrong in a person, situation, or thing.
6. What are the 5 most important things in your life right now?
7. Let someone be "right" for once.

Have a good weekend everyone!

glowing purple purses.

I love big bags, but I don't want them so deep that would leave me looking for some stuff. However, this product is just a wee bit too much, it seems to me you are carrying a refrigrator bag. The bag lits up when you open it, similar to your fridge lol! Interested? check it out HERE.

Do you hate looking for your keys? Do you spend a long time searching your purse for your cellphone? Well, the Glowing Purse by Kawamura and Ganjavian, will
bring an end to your misery. The purse uses micro-LEDs, which are attached to the inner fabric of the purse. You can switch the lights on and off as you wish and, when the power dies off, just recharge it or get a new battery.

another to drool purple bag.

Saw this from Purseblog.com. Add this up in my wishlist.
A Marc by Marc Jacobs Dr. Q Liz Bag.

i wants!

Forget about getting myself a Phentermine without prescription to shed off the excess weight. I'd rather do it the natural and cheaper way. I'd rather put the money for the diet pill into these bags! I want want want!

For many months, I have been scouting for the perfect coach bags. They usually end up being so bulky or so small. But these 3 are just perfect for my taste. Truly affordable. I want talaga!

i knew it!

I anticipated this already.
I just knew that the LV Monogram Vernis is coming out with an Alma MM collection (much more in violette!) and they did. Oh my goodness, I can't stop myself from drooling and salivating altogether LOL! Available in 3 colors and with a tag of 2000 bucks!

• Rolled patent handles with link attachments

MJ for Sephora.

What are these? These are Marc Jacobs products exclusively sold at Sephora. If you cannot afford his designer bags read: LV LOL! These are very affordable for your vanities! They're adorable and very compact. Prices ranging from $40-$80!!! Not bad! I especially like the white classic bag. It has two drawers, three trays, and two foldout pockets. Very very nice! Very very tempting! I left my traincase in Manila so I better get one here hee.

Check the products HERE!

not one of those designer bags.

Oh yes, the title says it, this Verona Suede Laptop bag maybe priced at par with those designer bags but this one's for the laptop only. This is made from beautiful suede and offers style with convenience. I find it very elegant especially knowing that it's made from top quality calfskin leather and suede. The area where you put your laptop is all padded, so no worries if you accidentally hit the ground with this bag. And it's very light at 3.90 lbs! I would love to have this for my laptop if only I was working fulltime.

i have a story to tell about this bag.

I have a story to tell about this LV Monogram Canvass Eva.

While hubby and I were doing some comforters shopping at JCPenney, a petite girl which looks to me, age ranges from 12-14, was hitting the ground with that bag! I think she was throwing some huge tantrums because apparently her mom didn't brought her shopping at Hollister (hihihi tsismosa ako). My goodness gracious! Super kawawa ang bag as in --and her mom. I think she was a spoiled (rotten) brat. She should be very grateful that at her young age, she was already able to own a luxury bag, which looks like brand new to me(and not hand-me-down from mommy). Oh well, what can you get from a teener who usually care about their OWN self most of the time. God save that LV Canvass Eva tsk tsk.

perfectly new.

What can you say about these new LV bags?
Other than their un-Classic designs and sky-rocketing rates, I'm quite sure that you'll find perfectly fake versions of these in greenhills, ayee! Am I right or am I right? I just think these LV bags are easier to copy than their classic monogram series.

How was your Mother's day celebration? Mine was gloomy and lazy. The weather's been very bad! All that Hubby, the little boy and I did was laze around in the bedroom save for the family dinner we had to recap our Mother's Day celebration. There is a total of 5 mothers in my hubby's family here and all of them are in the 50's up. I was the only young mom, so just imagine the mommies talk LOL! We received some little goodies from the young ones and the dinner did stuff me really bad, hay naku sira ang diet!

While waiting for everyone to start dinner, I did some window online shopping, my favorite pastime these days. I am almost going to get myself a Crocs Malindi in Turquoise but there weren't any size 6! Hahahah! It was truly a blessing in disguise because if there was a size 6 and I pressed the purchase button, oh no! It will end up to be an impulsive online purchase again! Tsk tsk very bad me!

I visited Bagsbuy.com for the 1st time, Shoebuy's sister company. And I am drooling and contemplating on getting this The Sak ashbury linen shopper bag in white trim. Truly a beauty! Another sizzling Spring temptation! I am also becoming a wise online shopper by comparing prices and I was surprised to find some nice finds and cheaper prices at Piperlime.com. The hottest items in this website are the Gladiator Sandals and here are my picks!

So before you make any purchase, make sure to compare prices. If you thought Shoebuy.com will give you the cheapest prices, check the items with Endless.com and Piperlime too. Happy shopping!

dooney&bourke Spring collection

One time, hubby made a very nasty remark on my favorite brand, Dooney. He said not to invest on any of their products as to him, Dooney is a major LV copycat LOL! He said that after buying me a Dooney wallet ahahah. I mean, coming from a guy, he only means 1 thing: If I were to buy an LV bag and Dooney Bag, I have to choose only 1, to save some more household budget.I like Dooney because it is so girly and very affordable. They have designs that can sport your everyday to elegant wear. Some styles are crappy, though. But if you are on the look out of some very chic and fashionable bags yet very affordable, check out Dooney&Bourke's Spring 2008 Collection. Ooohlala moment!

paint your own FENDI!

Mahina collection

This LV Mahina Collection is such a breath of fresh air. It is something out of their usual monogram hard leather series. Grabe katakam! The soft and supple leather makes it trendy yet classic. But with USD3k up, would you???

PURPLE is the new spring color

Purple shades are for Autumn season right? But, hey look at the latest campaign ad of LV! How nice! I wanted it to be my blog header instantly but copyrights are copyrights boohoo!

how kikay!

Multicolore Pastilles Key Chain, fashionable or smashionable?

amazing Louis Vuitton

Upon seeing the amazing A Journey is not a Trip by Louis Vuitton in Mama Mee's blog, I can't helped but youtubed LV's 1st TV ad which I saw the other day. Have you seen it? Amazing! Watch it here. Titled as Where will life take you? All of us can truly relate with this ad err except for the bags which some of us is still aiming to own. LOL!
