A death in the family

August 01, 2006

Tasha German Shepherd Dog at 13 just before she passed awayA member of my family: a pet of my family, actually of my cousin "LaLa MaMa," just passed away. We are/were all very close.

I'm probably not going to post on Kiss Me, Stace for the rest of the week. I should take it easy and be there for my family, but I still need to keep up with business aspects. (I'll try my best.)

You'll notice posts from me on Pursed Lips all week, as I got very [a bit too much] purse-posty last Friday. I was generally purse-obsessed last week, but priorities have been knocked into me for the time being, and I don't care as much about those things right now.

In honour of Tasha, LaLa will post something very special on Pet, Pet (our pet product blog) whenever she feels that she can tackle such a special project.

Coach Chelsea Op Art Satchel

August 01, 2006

Anyone who puts down Coach should check this bag---and its price---out.

Coach Chelsea Op Art SatchelCoach's Chelsea Op Art Satchel has a body of brown suede with rectangular strips of metallic leathers and such. The Coach signature-styled corner stitching even gets a boost of the different style, with multi layers of 90° angles to match on the opposite end.

The body even has a new design, this particular satchel shape is unique to Coach, being---of course---rectangular. To match the newer Chelsea line elements, there's a turnlock closure on the top of the bag: gorgeous, especially in this new satchel shape. To top it off, design-wise, there are round rings and buckles.

Sounds like perfection at 13 ¼" length. But are you ready for the kicker points? Those accessory strips are: suede, dusted suede, metallic calfskin, patent leather, & "lightweight" leather. Add a silk/satin lining and what have we got?

Are you ready?

Another rare expensive designer COACH price of $798!

Well, it is divine!

Want something similar at a more cost-effective pricepoint? There's a matching wristlet for only $198 and several other satchels in this shape of different materials, including basic pebbled leather and Optic Signature, both at $358.

My New Vintage Gucci

August 01, 2006

I went to my first-visited antique mall (my friend has a booth there) on my vacation to Florida.

And I saw a vintage Gucci bag!

It wasn't my perfect dream and it was more expensive than I'd want to pay for it. But I continued to look.

Vintage GucciI bought this vintage navy monogram Gucci doctor satchel with a red stripe!

I couldn't post about it until (well, first I had to photograph) I was struck with just the right name.

Well, I came to "G. Love." (Yes, my bag has got sauce.)

I am passionately in love with this bag. This bag is my lover in an affair.

(I am in a polygamous relationship with Coach [and we are about to have a baby], the other bags are just my friends.)

What can I say, I'm a bag girl and I love the Gucci!
