The Age Old Dilema: How to shop for thee designer handbag that best suits you!

Yesterday a good friend was asking me advice on which Louis Bag i thought would best suit her. from that sentence don't think she isn't independent and what not - because she is, she just knows we both have an ever lasting love for Louis and i'd be completely honest. So now since that i explained the blog begins.

Simone textes me and asked me which bag would best suit her. The Damier Azur speedy 25 or the Black Multicolour speedy 30 with pocket detail. I instantly responded with "let me find a place to sit down and i'll get back to your asap, i can go on for hours" When i found a place to sit i said. "what do you want to convey with the bag." She said what any person who doesnt want to buy the wrong bag would say, or do? She gave me a kind of pro's and con's list.

The Damier Azur Speedy 25: Its classic and clean, and i responded with my friend has one and theres basically denim stains on one side of the bag so its a bitch to take care of.

The Black Multicolour Speedy 30: It shows her personality (which is always good and i deffinately can not fight with that) because we all want a bag that best suits our personality.) Its fun its bright. Basically we went back and forth saying yes it would basically show her personality but what about the class aspect that the Azur brings? We both agreed that it would be very difficult to convey Class with the BM then we got back in the personality discussion.

In the end after going back in forth with "maybe the azur in a bigger size would look fabulous" and the "are you sure you want a bag that you have to be choosie with which accessories you can pair it up with." We... Well she decided to go with the bag that best suits her personality which is great because sometimes a girl just wants to have fun with her purses and not be well. Boring!

You go girl and good luck with your first LV purchase!

PS: Tell me how you guys shop for your bags! Whats questions do you ask yourself? Whats the deciding factor?

Street Chic: Head 2 Toe

I've been meaning to get around to making a segment on my blog called "Street Chic." Yes, yes every blogger does it so i may as well help keep that tradition alive. Who will be there first person to be featured on my Street Chic post, If you haven't guessed by now. Its yours truley. Me! Haha

From head to toe: One of my new summer accessories, H&M fedora, Marc Jacobs charm necklace, Jimmy Choo Pour H&M Grey t-shirt with small pocked detail, H&M Biker Jacket, Quarts watch, an H&M leather studded belt (which you obviously can't see. Sorry!). Another one of my new summer accessories is my vintage Yves Saint Laurent clutch which i've recently discovered can be tossed onto any casual to chic outfit and can still make an outfit scream glamour. Jeans: random, probably urban behavious- inexspensive but long lasting and last but not least my brand new- vintage army/combat steal toe boots very cute and very "hard"

Stay tuned for more amazing Street Chic outfits from either yours truley or a random stranger or two.

I just spent the whole night editing my facebook albums, just deleting and sorting photos. Then i noticed some pictures i haven't looked at in a while, and there photos of some of my dearest friends. It made me sad because i don't get to see them as offen as i wish i could but we still keep in touch so its all good! A certain album i was looking through deffinately got to me. Its of my friend Shelby and Sarah and of course me. It was when they both came to Toronto to catch up and to see Kelly Cutron at MTV Aftershow and at her book signing for her new book: If you have to cry go outside and other things your mother never told you!" We had a great time romeing the streets and designer shops of Yorkville, i miss them terribley but i know we'll get together soon and we'll have an even better time!
