It's finally Friday! TGIF! In between crazy work hours and mad weather recently, i've been doing some online shopping. Some of my favourite items to buy via the internet are dresses, bags, books and scrapbooking products :) I've always been a big fan of online shopping - firstly because i hate crowds, and secondly (and more importantly) i love the anticipation and excitement that comes with the wait for my purchases to arrive in the mail!
In recent weeks, i've been browsing a few online sites, sourcing for a new work bag and wallet to replace the 'lao-kok-kok' ones that i've been using since light-years ago. I know i want a white bag, or at least one that is not boring-black, and i'm really not a fan of monograms, so i would like a plain wallet this time. I also need classic designs that will last me at least two to three years because i don't relish the idea of splurging on a new bag or wallet every few months. Most importantly, brands like Gucci and Coach are seriously a little out of my range (and league!)
So anyway...i narrowed my choices down to two sites...this and this. And gosh, the Kate Spade designs took my breath away! So pretty, so girly, SO GORGEOUS!
Check out the new bags...
And the wallets and cases...

I'm 101% converted! In fact, i placed an order from their site last night using vPost's shipping service (since Kate Spade doesn't ship internationally). I was so excited all day, until i logged on to Hotmail and found this in my mailbox...
What disappoints me more than not being able to get the item i ordered was the fact that they didn't even bother to explain why my order could not be processed. Now i'm sad :(
Anyhow, i've emailed them to try to get things sorted out, hopefully i do get my purchase eventually...anyone here with similar encounters? Please share your experience with me!
On a different topic, i've actually uploaded all the photos of my Chiang Mai trip to a draft blog post last Saturday - over a hundred of them! I'm about halfway through the post, and i will get it up, i promise! Somehow, recently, i've been busting all deadlines except the ones to do with work...at the end of each work day, i'm really only running on 10% residual energy :( Friday nights and Saturdays are all i live for right now! (Amongst many other things of course, hehe!) Enjoy your weekend!
