My Louis Vuitton Montaigne bag has arrived and it is so beautiful!! I love it!! I am so happy to get this gift and it's all thanks to my HonHon, he is the bestest! So excited to use my new handbag!

Gucci - Sukey Large Python Tote

OH MY! Beautiful Gucci Tote! Wish I could afford one cos they are a perfect match for my new Stewies! Exotic python leather, crafted with great detail yet simple and classic shape. Thank goodness Gucci went back to the classics cos I have no idea what they were thinking when they decided to bring THESE out....??!!??

Avail at Saks Fifth Avenue $3195 and due to popular demand, only 3 purchases per month!! Sheesh, wish I could even afford the ONE!

Ellie

I love these Ellie handbags, they are so beautifully designed and crafted in Italy. I think I have found my newest addition (and a much needed colour!), only $245 USD.

Xmas Present 2008

Yes I know I am a bit early with this one but I need to do a little bit of research and check out the newest and latest styles when it comes to purchasing a new handbag for my collection. I do not have and really need a basic black handbag since I do not own one, well I do have a tiny black Fendi clutch but it's too small and I like my every day purses to be roomy. I was really excited about getting a Katherine Kwei black "Donna" lambskin tote but Holt Renfrew only carries a few items from her spring/summer 08 collection and this one is not available. I did send Katherine Kwei an email about this and she replied back that I could order one in from her to be shipped to HR but the mark up at HR is RIDICULOUSLY HIGH so no thank you.

I do love the Dior handbags so I am considering one of the following two:

What A Week!

HonHon arrived on Friday, Feb. 8 and he brought back a ton of Hello Kitty goodies for me! All the HK items are so very cute and of course, I was spoiled yet again! Of all the items I received, my fave items are the bathrobe, the bathroom mats and the door curtain. His suitcase was super heavy but it wasn't all me! He also brought back some stuff that my mom had left behind in Hong Kong (jars of XO sauce) and my sister sent some cute outfits for Ari! He got a cute denim jacket and a cheongsam. We tried them on him and they are so cute! Need to get some photos of him in them :)

There was so much that we had done, I'm just gonna write all the highlights of the week:

• Gifts, gifts and more gifts! Apple Classic iPod for me and 5 or 6 Wii games for Kay
  
• Louis Vuitton - All in the Monogram Vernis line (my very fave!) in 3 different colours: Koala wallet in pomme d'amour (candy apple red), key and change holder with name plate in amarante (deep dark purple/black), and the agenda of course which I purchased earlier and oh yes, LV 2008 refills for my small agenda.
  
• V-day dinner at West on Granville which was lovely. I love dining at West, it's my fave restaurant in Vancouver, worth every dollar! We only go once or twice a year and it's a time where I get to dress up and feel like royalty. I ordered the smoked sablefish and HonHon ordered the tenderloin, both dishes were incredible!
  
• IKEA for mattress shopping, we finally found an inexpensive queen size bed for HonHon's condo in Burnaby and what a day we had putting the pine bed frame together, apparently, the screws and brackets were misplaced!
• Trying out new restaurants and re-visiting old favorite ones! We must have eaten out every day at least once!
• Home-cooking twice, once HonHon made us dinner and I made homemade pizza for him.

It was nice to spend some quality time with him and Kay. I took the week off and Kay was allowed to take Friday off (every Friday is half a day) as HonHon's flight was tonight. Can't believe he's left already, it's very quiet and empty. But in a couple of days, we'll be over it. Usually, he leaves on a Sunday but China Air switched the times around and HonHon does not like these times. But overall, it was a great visit and it was so nice to see him, hug him, kiss him and spend some long overdue quality time together as a family (even though he did a lot of sleeping as you can see in the photos! I guess cos he's on vacation or jetlagged?!?!). The only thing I really regret is that we made a verbal deal about Louis Vuitton. No more Louis Vuittons until my birthday in August .... of 2010!! Yikes!! But I still love him even though we made the almost impossible deal. Well there are other luxury items that I love! :) It was such a great visit and we sure do miss him tons.... gosh did I mention that it feels quiet and something is missing.....
