Bags, bags, bags!!

Oh my, what an emotional rollercoster ride Yesterday was!

I found something I didn't know I was after: The Manor Bag by Burberry!!

What I have been after is a bigger black bag for the Autumn, and have been checking Stockmann's and such on and off but nothing has really hit me.

So Yesterday I decided to go through the smaller boutiques in Fredrikinkatu and Korkeavuorenkatu.

I saw this jewel in the oh-so-pretty second hand shop Hepsankeikka in Korkeavuorenkatu, calmly took a good look at it inside out, in front of a mirror, put it in my shoulder, and carried it a little in my arm.

I left the shop, I still had a few other places to go to, and I also stopped to have lunch at Tori. I believe one should never make any desicions no matter how big or small they were, with an empty stomach. And by the way, such a delicious salmon salad with fennel they had!

I went back and the friendly lady smiled at me to which I answered with even a bigger one, and we closed the deal!

The bag is so beautiful!!

It's hardly been used, it's made of thick, black quality leather, it's got golden highlights and enough room for my essentials, even a lunch box! It's just so bloody cool I can't believe my luck!!!

This is destiny! This is meant to be!

Life really is like a box of chocolates!! Hooray!!

Here it is!!

While browsing through different shops I came close to having a stroke at Amado's in Fredrikinkatu: the first thing I spotted was the Dior Goucho Double Saddle Bag!

I have never seen one in my life!!

While we talked about it with the owner I literally got goose bumps!

Oh-My-God it's such a beautiful bag, a true classic with the big buckle, the old keys and the medallions with Dior himself in them! I think I drewled a little!

But if the bag itself is prestigious, so was the price: if you have a spare 700€ in your account, hurry up and get it! It's there waiting!

Such a vision for my eyes, look!!

I also came across something rather odd: in another shop I spotted a black Louis Vuitton Alma Bag in Vernis leather in the window. I've never been too keen on the LV's but the Alma Bag especially in the colour Amarante is quite pretty. So I went in and took a look at it. It had bigger handles than they usually do, there was only one inside pocket instead of two, it had no padlock in the zipper and the label inside looked a little sloppy. I couldn't believe it. Came to my mind if it was genuine at all. And the price was 550€.

I really don't know these bags well, there were other Vuittons too, mainly those traditional Monogram-Bags, so she must know how it is. Perhaps it was an older model, a special edition, something. Don't know.

But here's the Alma in Amarante, isn't it cute!

Ok, now there's been A LOT of talking about bags! 

It's like a can of worms, I can't stop!!

Have a good Tuesday, my friends, inspite the rain!
