406. Recent Life

A few weeks ago my mom and I went to Holt Renfrew to look for a new bag for her..we spent a loooong time at the Prada boutique, trying out pretty much every style they had. In the end she decided on this one. She gave it to me to use for awhile but I haven't used it yet..the colour doesn't seem to match any of my clothes.

I have been using my new Fendi a lot though! It is a great summer bag. I got the heatstamp done with my initials. I was pretty surprised at how small the letters came out (as all other Fendi tags I see have bigger letters) but I guess I can deal with it. Also got a new Clover Canyon dress recently.

Picked up a brand new bag last week! If you follow me on Instagram, Facebook, etc I'm sure you'll have already seen it. I will post some photos of it in my next post. It's a Fendi Petite 2jours. The colour I got isn't on the website though for some reason..

As much as I love this bag, I realized in the past couple years that I no longer get as excited as I used to about material items (which is a good thing). These days I am more into spending on experiences (mainly travel) rather than things, or saving/investing. I'm going to head out to Holt Renfrew again after I finish this post to get my initials heatstamped on the bag. Hopefully it won't take too long (I've heard it can take anywhere from 1-3 weeks?!). I also have a gift card from them that I picked up at the private shopping event last week. Now I need to force myself to buy something else hahah. This probably relates to my previous point but I'm having the hardest time buying clothes these days. I usually only buy something when I REALLY love it. In the past, I always find 3-5 things I REALLY love whenever I go to Holt Renfrew, but my past few times there I found nothing. I don't know if it's just me or their selection of clothes is getting worse now. The only brands I like these days are Clover Canyon, AQ/AQ & Smythe. Hopefully their new collections came in.

344. BOSK

Quick post to sum up my weekend. Been so busy these days. I wish I could say why but it's still too early to reveal..For more updates check out my other blog! I promise I'll have more time for this one soon.
On Saturday my friend & I went for lunch at Bosk, the restaurant inside the Shangri-La Hotel. I also brought home a box of macarons. It was the first time I've seen macarons there. They were decent but unfortunately still not up to Laduree standards! I really liked the passionfruit flavour. The foie gras was pretty interesting. The food at Bosk was really good though, especially the salmon and tapioca pearls dessert.
