So, want to know what "power shopping" means? It's kinda like "power napping" but more satisfying.... hahahhah. So, I went straight to the "invitation" only presale area for Nordies Anniversarry Sale. And this is where all hell broke loose. I quickly grabbed 3 watches.... in 5 minutes! I swear! I do not have expensive stuff, except my bags---but for some reason, these watches are just calling my name... like crazy. At this point I called Fridah to meet me there instead of the cafeteria. And then, this is when all hell broke loose times ten. She shrieked when she saw the Michael Kors watch she has been lusting for a very long time since she saw it in the movie The Blind Side. We looked around a little bit more and quickly dismissed the MJ
bags-- because we are trying to be good. Heheheh! Then, we saw this gorgeous Gucci sunglasses and being good went down the drain as quickly as you can say Gucci--- as opposed to saying Ba-len-cee-ya-gah! Fridah picked up the purplish shade, looks black on different angle and lighting. As I was deciding between the watches ( because I thought 3 watches is just way too bad-- even for me), I somehow stumbled over the yummy Rebecca Minkoff Morning After Bag Mini in this yummy magenta shade. So, should I let go of the watches and just get this bag? Or, maybe I will just get 2 watches instead of 3? Or just the watches since I bought 4 bags last May? So many options, too little time. This is about 2pm and I needed to be at work by 3pm. I hate work! It interferes with my hobby. Hmmmp! I should give up work and focus on my hobby, right? Hahaahah!
I am so excited I can not wait to show you pictures. I will not tell you anymore stories but let the pictures speak.
This is the SA we worked with. From this day, she will be my accessories SA. She is so sweet and fashionable---very pretty---and looks and smells yummy. I am OCD about working with people, either my hair dresser or my sales associate. Her name is Celina. Even her name sounds plush, huh?
"Oh my God, i can not buy this, just no budget for this right now." NOT!
While all the chaos was ensuing, I was fidgety because 1. where will I get the money to pay all these?
and 2. i need to go to work, also known as "paying machine".
So, here's what we got in 25 minutes... enjoy...! Try power shopping too... it's---very liberating!
First off, the watches:
My first ever Burberry item. I do not like BB bags. Maybe, this will grow on me. So Brit.
Oh, I so love this watch. All black, all ceramic. Feels very industrial. In fact, it is very heavy. Love it, love it, love it!
Here's Fridah's Gucci sunglasses. It is so in your face but subtle enough because it has those Icon Bit Gucci signature that is so not very recognizable except to the fashion babies.
It's purple but in different lighting looks black. I love it.
I so love this Gucci too, but for some reason, Gucci frames just don't work very well for me. I gave my one and only Gucci to my niece, Michelle.
Presenting to you my dear friends.... another bag! Yes, a bag! Wait... 2 bags--of the same color, size and design--- and now ( say and now like those booming voice from tv shows after commercial breaks)... I present to you Rebecca Minkoff Morning After bag mini in magenta---exclusive color for Nordies Anniversary Sale....
It is foil stenciled to look like croc leather.
As with other RM bags ( the MAB is her signature bag), this is beautiful. The hardware is polished gold and has that extra strap for when you are tired carrying it satchel style.
This photo is to illustrate to you how the bag looks when full and how soft the leather is. The bag at the back is slouchy without stuffing but if you carry it, it still maintains the shape, thanks to a very well thought of design of the pipings.
Fridah's Gucci and MK
Watch galore. 3MKs 1 BB
Twin bags.... again. This is the 3rd time me and Pits( I call Fridah Pits) have the same exact bag. We both have an MK clutch and MJ Large single.
Fridah's loot
What we purchased in 25 minutes total!
Oh, I pre-ordered this Bobbi Brown set and was delivered yesterday too. Yesterday was just a magical day! Haahhahaha. This set is specially made for the Anniversary Sale only. For all these, you only pay $75.00, which I thought was a steal.
So, my total purchases ---so far ; ) ...
And Joey says.... "no more?"
If you feel you need company when you shop, please call me. I am so banned from shopping, I just want to live vicariously through you. Please call me before I go insane!
