Bags review!

I'm sure you girls know by now I'm hopelessly addicted to bags

and so I thought I'll share my personal opinion on the bags I own!

Because I am leaving my job soon, 

I wanted to buy a bag a month for the year of 2012 hahaha crazy I know

and that's why the recent increase in the number of new bags you've seen on my arms lately.

I'm not like that usually.

Really.

After I quit, I won't be buying (as often) anymore :(

Today, I'll be reviewing the 2 newest additions to my collection:

- Chanel Wallet on Chain (WOC)

- Celine Phantom in Small

 I've been searching like crazy for a silver WOC but it's out of stock everywhere!
When I finally saw this in London's Harrods, I wanted it but it was the last piece.

So I went on to two other boutiques and they have only one left as well

and they were all display pieces.

I went back to Harrods, gave it another round of thorough check,
found no defects and I got it!

I was soooooo happy I think only H can understand hahaha.

Review: 

Its name states very clearly, it's really just a Wallet. On chain. 

It is pretty useless as a bag 'cause it fits only your cards, cash, and your phone.

That's all.

It's perfect as an evening clutch/purse carried short length or for clubbing.

I love it because I can carry it in 4 different ways depending on the occasion!

Here, I twirled the chain once around the bag and the length suits my height.

I sling it with the original length in this outfit.

Definitely not a bag for the girl who cannot live without all her barang barang while out shopping
but it's perfect for me since I don't carry much out anyway :)

And now, the IT brand that everyone wants a piece of.

 With my shopping partner in HK and now Paris!

This, I also went to 3 boutiques before I finally found it.

What's with the hardships I've to deal with before I buy a bag!!!

Celine bags seem to be out of stock All. The. Time,
and the boutiques don't sell the pieces on display which is quite a pain
especially when you DON'T MIND display pieces.
But the happiness after I found the Phantom, it's like I've found gold :)

Review:

I prefer the Phantom over the Luggage Tote (Mini) because it's not as stiff 

and I love the slouchiness the Phantom possesses due to the nonexistent of a zipper.

I also loveeeee the luxurious feel of the suede interior!

Extremely roomy bag thus we'll tend to throw a lot of stuff in 

but it's a really heavy bag on its own and as the day wears on, 

the bag feels heavier and ...heavier.

If you're petite like me, 

carrying it on the shoulders would be another option (it looks good on shoulders too!)

though it is a little bulky!

I was never a fan of big bags and this is the biggest bag I own to date and I love it! :)

Am pretty obsessed over Celine at the moment
and the next bag I would love to get from the brand is the Box Bag!
Or maybe the Nano?
Oh mannnnn too many wants and not enough money.

If you like me to do a review on any other bags of mine, just leave a comment! :)
