What I Got This Christmas

Hello friendships! How's your weekend?

Since we set our goal to save more, we agreed (hmmm that's what I thought) not to buy expensive gifts for each other this Christmas and for the past months I've told you that we have a matured perspective on spending my husband's hard earned money. 

Since I do the budgeting, he lets me hold his payroll atm and he will only borrow it when he needs to top up his bus card which happens once a month. My husband is an old fashion when it comes to his earnings, he follows the traditions where the husband submits everything to the wife, that works for us and might not work for other couples, different home has different ways on what will be the best for the family. And the day he borrowed the atm was the time he bought his gift for me. My gift for him was just a simple sweatshirt wahehehe,,, although I looked for something with good quality I still felt a little guilty and embarrassed when we opened our gifts. 


Who would have guessed na bag ang laman nung box na yan, kala ko damit lang din :)


meet my first burberry bag Haymarket Check Bowling Bag, My husband knew that I love handbags than shoulder bags, kaya love ko talaga ung mga speedy type, I noticed that the handles are longer than the speedy, and the texture of the bag is also thicker than speedy, it holds up in shape better than speedy din, I haven't use it pa but speedy is lighter and the pattern is more classic. As for the brand and price, hindi nagsasale ang LV unlike Burberry kaya hindi masakit sa dibdib pag nakita mo na bagsak presyo yung binili na bag, sa burberry naman may opportunity naman na makascore ng super sale na bag di ba, masaya din un. 




Together with my speedys for comparison


Medyo mas like ko ang dust bag quality ng LV


Honestly ang saya saya ko (please dont judge me) hindi din talaga biro ang maging housewife, setting aside yung pagging idealistic ha pero gusto ko lang mag vent out ng mababaw lang naman siguro sa iba hahaha pero "namimiss ko na ang mall" hehehe promise, coming from Philippines at Singapore na kabikabila ang mall sobrang miss ko na hehehe,,, kaya din siguro nirewardan ako ni husband ng gusto ko kasi mahilig talaga ako sa bag kahit wala akong sapatos at tsinelas lang ako, kahit wala akong ginagamit na relo (may phone naman katwiran ko) kahit super sale ang damit ko, kahit hindi ako updated sa gadget at sobrang laos at bagal na ng phone ko, basta mahilig ako sa bag, college pa lang ako palagi akong naghahanap ng good quality at unique na bag, talagang nagsasave ako ng baon ko makabili lang ako ng bag na maayos, di ko makakalimutan yung iniyakan ko ung bag na nilaslas yung gilid nung nakasakay ako sa jeep one ride lang naman ako from dorm sa morayta at tup sa taft kaya doon lang talaga, tapos sa school ko na lang nalaman na sira na pala, walang nakuha pero iniyakan ko ung bag. 

Alam ko hon na nagbabasa ka ng blog ko,,, Salamat ng marami, I appreciate everything, every single day na magkasama tayo, kahit walang mall hahaha basta't kasama kita... :)

PS. may mall naman dito pero iba yung mall sa Singapore at Philippines hehehe,,,pati tinda iba, way cheaper sa SG at PH tapos magagand pa, pero kasi window shopping eh solve na ako hehehe,,, dito kasi sa H&M lang ako masaya hehehe,,, kung very affordable ang body shop sa sg, dito e sobrang mahal, kung sa sg e pang gift na un pasok sa budget dito e hindi ewan ko nga kung bakit :)
