My birthday is coming up (64 days to go) and I've been scouring online stores in search for things for my dad to buy for me *haha I'm that excited* and I've come up with a number of pressies that I fancy most. I just need my dad to agree to let me buy those things :| and that's the hardest part. Haha! Though I hope that he'd give in cause it's gonna be my 21st birthday! :P
I've taken the liberty of making snapshot photos with their prices (in USD and GBP) for reference.
FIRST OFF! The BlackBerry Bold 9900.

Preferably in white. The 9900 isn't available in the market yet, and if it still won't be available in time for my birthday, I think I'll just get a white iPhone 4. Dunno. Or I'll stick to my old Bold 9700 for the meantime. At least until the 9900 comes out or the iPhone 4S (!!!)
Second on the list is a Louis Vuitton Speedy 35 Bandouliere
It's a new take on a very iconic bag shape, in Louis Vuitton Monogram no less! A lot of LV Speedy owners (myself included) get arm pains due to the weight that the handles put to your arm. Some owners in fact buy a separate shoulder strap which they connect to the handles of their Speedy so that they can carry it around their shoulders even though it's not advisable to attach such strap onto the bag because it was never designed for it. But now, help is at hand! I'm not completely sure about when they released this style but I've heard that it's going to be a permanent bag style by the house of Vuitton. The Speedy B, as they call it, comes in all the different sizes that the regular speedy is available in. That means it comes in 25cm, 30cm, 35cm, and of course the 40cm. If you want something bigger though, the Keepall Bandouliere is the next best thing. Sadly, the Speedy B only comes in the Monogram style. Maybe sometime soon they will introduce the Speedy B in Damier Ebene and Azur (or maybe even Epi!) But for now, my eyes are glued to this. Lol
The third and fourth ones are actually options... I'm not prioritizing the Louis Vee because my heart belongs to the two bags you see below... the Balenciaga Part-Time with rose gold giant HW (RGGH) and the Balenciaga Velo, both in Anthracite color lambskin.
I've been lusting for Balenciaga bags since 2005 and have always wanted to own one since. Before they only had the First, Twiggy, City, Day, Work, and the Weekender styles with the small Ruthenium HW. But now, they have the Town, Brief, Hip, Pompon, Envelope, and Move-on styles in a plethora of colors and a wide range of hardwares! Although for me, I'd rather stick to the classics so that I can maximize my bag's mileage to it's limit. I'll be going to HK next month and I could probably get my hands on one if the HK$ will be fair to me and have an exceptionally low conversion rate to the peso since B-bags are reportedly heaps more expensive in HK than, say, SG (a Mimosa City GGH reportedly costs HK$17000 in Joyce Central Rd.) Also, I might have a hard time looking for a very specific style and trim due to the fact that Hong Kong doesn't have it's own Balenciaga flagship. Only Balenciaga resellers carry B-bags as well as pre-owned bag stores such as VIP station, Milan Station etc. and I doubt that they'd have my specific want. But who knows, right?
I just hope that everything will go according to plan for my birthday as I feel that it would be my last (WHAT) hahahaha I'm kidding. I just want my 21st to be perfect! I want a great start to my year so that I could keep myself at the same pace until my next birthday.
Care to tell me what your plans are for your birthday/what you want to get/where you're celebrating? :)
