MbMJ Faridah bag.

Now selling on eBay. Pictures provided per request by interested buyers ;)

The first two pictures show the spots I discovered while taking pictures. I might want to use another MbMJ dust bag because those spots were not there before I put the bag in the dust bag :(

SO BUYERS BE FOREWARNED, there are tiny white dots (possibly 3) on the bag. All three are on the lower portion of the bag (bottom of the pockets)

Marc by Marc Jacobs Faridah Hobo - Bright Purple

Anyone interested in buying my USED MbMJ hobo? It's super functional and has perfectly placed pockets. I stopped using it since I now have two other purses and I figured it needed a better owner than me/one who will actually use it. This is also a SOLD OUT color. I think it was in very limited production.

My asking price is $275 (purchased for $448+tax) since it is used. I will accept other offers (I'm not too demanding, I just want some money back for this baby ;)), but if you're interested, please email me at mbmj.faridah@gmail.com.

We will have to also bargain about the logistics/costs for getting the purse to you. I'm a regular seller on eBay so I don't mind shipping, but it would be nice to just deliver it locally.

Yay for Forever 21

I'm disappointed 'cause Forever 21 did NOT have the blue dress in a small anymore (mentioned in a previous post,) but I'm super happy because I found a cute cross-body bag! The bag only cost $13.80, and it came in red, purple, and black. I liked purple and black but decided that black would be better in the long run.


Compared to the $158 MbMJ Softy Percy, this bag is about the same size, has a lot less hardware, but is so much nicer to my bank account!

Here's the MbMJ:

Sold Out!

Apparently everyone and their mother had the same feelings towards the Marc by Marc Jacobs Softy Percy as me (and in the colors I wanted!) It's now sold out on shopbop.com *cries*

I was going to buy it because I figured I won't be going shopping during my trip to Vegas. Yes, we're going to attempt to go (even if we end up going a day later than planned.) The 15 is still closed, but I'm thinking it'll open by Friday morning.

First post...

I've decided that Xanga reminds me too much of my past (not that it was bad, or anything) and that I needed a fresh start. If you don't know me that reasoning probably sounds like I just broke up with my boyfriend or something, but that's hardly the case. I guess Xanga was just too "Asian-teenybopper" for me? Here's my old blog if anyone cares: http://www.xanga.com/maaariko

Anyway, I hope that I can keep this thing interesting and informative, so bear with me if I jump from topic to topic (fashion, cooking, restaurants, work, love) in an effort to cover a lot of bases.

Tonight I was online shopping (more like browsing) and I discovered some really adorable new Marc by Marc Jacobs purses. The color that really drew me in was a light, sky blue one called "Denim." I am infatuated with purses, so most of my fashion posts will probably be about purses that I cannot afford. Since I tend to dress in very classic colors and styles, purses are the way I express myself. Sadly my meager income cannot fulfill this expression/obsession of mine. On to the purses....

1. The Marc by Marc Jacobs "Softy Jorie" in Denim ($368, eLuxury.com). I can never get enough of a beautiful sky blue color, and this is sky blue perfection. It kind of looks like a diaper bag due to the color and front pocket, but I think it's cute. Due to the "cuteness" I think it would only look good on a 20something, and thankfully I fit into that category.

2. This little cutie is called the "Softy Percy" ($158, shopbop.com) and I am in dire need of a long, cross-body bag. All of my purses at the moment are wristlets, or huge shoulder bags with a drop of a maximum 8 inches. I realized I had a need for a bag like this when I went mini-golfing with the BF. I didn't want a huge shoulder bag getting in the way, but my tiny wristlet got in the way anyway. With this, I could sling it around to rest on my back and have the freedom to swing away (and win!)

I am tempted to get the Softy Percy because shopbop.com has a 30% off code right now, but it's still about $110. For you fashionistas who love shopbop, the code is HOLIDAYLOVE (full-priced items only.) Enjoy! I think it ends on 12/17/08 (11:59 pm PST) so hurry up!

Tomorrow (12/16) is my day off so I'm heading to Old Town Pasadena in search of some cute clothes at Forever 21 and elsewhere. BevMo is also calling my name, especially with my upcoming trip to Vegas! Someone has to help the economy, right? ;-)
