Bag Collection (Luxe Edition)

All My Luxury Bag Collection.

Sharing Where I Got The Bags And How Much It cost, Then And Now. Enjoy.

As'salamualaikum (Peace Be Upon You) Everybody!

A short post to share my luxury handbags collection that I have collected over the past 10 years.

I will indicate the duration of the bag I had in possession for your reference to see how well or unwell the bag have lasted over the test of time and wear. I will also indicate the price when I purchased them and the price now if I can still locate the price. I hope you will enjoy this rather different post and do watch my Youtube video to see how it looks like when I carry them if you are interested to purchase similar bags. Hope it helps.

Note: I take really good care of my things, regardless of the price and how much wear I got out of them. Proper care will make them last and look good even if it's been years.

Let's go!

1. Gucci Soho Disco

Price: SGD$1410

Bought in September 2016.

The perfect bag for almost every occasion. The colour red, which is "IN" this Spring season, is perfect to add a pop of colour to your outfits. The bag compliments the outfits, be it formal or casual, weekend chill session with fam-bam or friends by the beach. It may look small, but it carries a lot and is really comfortable. The price remain the same as of today.

2. Prada Cross Body Nylon Tote

Price: Not more than SGD$600

Retail as of 2013 was SGD$1500

Bought in December 2013

I am not sure if this is the right name as I have thrown the receipts away and the card as well.

I bought this when I was in Florence, Italy at the Prada Factory Outlet at The Mall. I can't seem to find the price or the product anymore on Prada Website. Therefore I am not sure of the current price.

This bag is very durable due to the canvas exterior and it fits a lot. I use this when I need to hit the gym immediately after work or during lunch hour, as it can fit everything I need. The only downside is, the shoulder strap for cross body is wayyyy to long for me and I am quite average about 1.69m or 5'6. Usually I will carry it by toting or double the strap to carry on my shoulder.

3. Louis Vuitton Eva Clutch in Damier Ebene Canvas

Price: SGD$675

Bought in December 2009

This bag has been my travel bag whenever I go overseas, which was quite a bit, even for work and weekends for many many years. It holds my small purse, passports, lip balm and my handphone. Thats about all it can fit. It is small but convenient. Looks lovely cross bodied. I bought this in Paris and able to claim VAT on it. Therefore, it was relatively cheaper than buying in Singapore. It would have cost about SGD$840 in 2009. Not sure how much it cost now. Will try to call LV and check the price now. Will update this blog once I find out.

4. Chanel 2.55 Classic Flap Jumbo

Price: SGD$4900

Bought in December 2013

For the love of Chanel's classics and look, I bought this bag. Originally wanted to get the Medium size. Due to the price difference, the Jumbo seems more worth while and could fit more. However, regretted it as I am a small handbag kinda person and I don't carry much. I was lucky to have purchased this before the price increase and I bought it in Rome. Found out that in Rome, the VAT for Chanel is 14% instead of 12%. Therefore, it was cheaper than purchasing it in Paris as the price in Euro was the same. Mine is in Lamb Skin. It is more fragile, but it looks more luxurious as compared to the caviar leather. It now retails for SGD$7930.

5. Chanel Boy Medium

Price: SGD$6210

Bought in August 2016

I love this bag even more than I love the Chanel 2.55. It very easy to pair this bag with casual or formal dressing. I really like the size as well. This bag with this colour only comes in lambskin. I was actually looking for a caviar leather for this bag as I would want to carry it without worrying of scratching it. Thus far, its been well. But the colour is unique. Its purple. Bought it in Singapore and the price remains unchanged. This is a medium not the new medium.

6. Speedy 25 Damier Azur Canvas

Price: SGD$980

Bought in May 2008

This is one of the longest bag that I've owned. I love it. Very durable, fits everything even though it is small for a speedy. Even though I bought it in a light colour, there is no colour transfer from jeans or anything at all. Current retail price is SGD$1300.

7. Burberry Newbury Nova Shoulder Bag

Price: SGD$250

Bought in December 2009

Bought this bag in Paris last minute when I saw it at Galeries Lafayette. It was retailing for SGD$520 in 2009. More for evening wear, fits less than my Louis Vuitton Eva Clutch.

8. Louis Vuitton Damier Ebene Hampstead PM

Price: SGD$1800

Bought in July 2010

Got this bag as a baby bag when I was pregnant. It is a little impractical as the bag itself has a weight on its on. Nonetheless I still use it for work, baby bag, and gym. The red suede lining inside is hard to maintain. Mine is still in good condition over these years even though it was a military full on baby bag with everything inside, include hot water flask. As of 2015, it has been discontinued.

9. Louis Vuitton Pochette in Damier Azur Canvas

Price:SGD$420

Bought in April 2008

This bag is love. I rarely use it now coz I have been using more cross body bags. Before that, I've been abusing this small baby with all my things. Its bigger in space even though its shorter than the Eva Clutch. The thin shoulder strap is durable even though I've stuffed it with lots of items and weigh it down. It didn't snap! :D

Thats all, hope it helps for those who wants to know more.
