mini red satchel

 

I forgot the brand, but you can find it in SM Department Store.

Mabe still can't get over with her dolls but she's slowly getting into the tween stuff.

I know it's impossible to wish for our children to stay as kids, but please don't grow up so fast Mabe.

What's inside this BAG?

Finally I found time to go inside the small stall in 888 Mall that do prints like this. I already have a lay-out stored in my Samsung Galaxy Tab for quite some time now. Timing is all I'm waiting for, since the stall is always full of customers.

The canvas bag cost Php 170.00 (that includes the printing).

Now, what's inside this bag?

dirty ballet shoes (haha!)

this is owned by an 8-year old kid dancing ballet. I know this is nothing compared to the stuff of grown-up ballerinas. I am curious though, what's inside their bag..

Happy Thursday everyone :)

Electric Masskara opens tomorrow, see you there! 

ooppsss ballet at 6pm tomorrow...goodluck.

BAD day...a BAG saved the day.

i had a bad day. 

at 6am, with the rain pouring hard, off to school with mabe. 

no sleep (read a paperback from front to back overnight).  

not to mention the need for a United Nation costume for this morning's program in school (teacher just announced yesterday noontime).

not to mention the specific (bath and laundry soap) Holy Mass offering noted in mabe's notebook yesterday afternoon. (needed also today at the Prayer Rally). we missed ballet schedule.

just this evening i had to do some wife duties, do some errands, rain still pouring hard, dipped in baha!!!, arrived home dripping wet...

and then i saw a package....my online purchase from Chicify arrived!! 

i have been looking for a bag (not a camera bag) for my dslr, so i can carry them on ordinary days.

the moment i saw this Avignon Box Sling Bag by Hebe Manila in Chicify, i know this is it (and really is it).

i am not a baghag. far from it. 

thank you my Box Bag for saving my bad day :)

a rainy evening everyone!!!

i never, ever leave the house without my cellphone...i bring it even in the bathroom, yes i do...i just put it inside a small plastic bag so just in case, it won't get wet or what..

below are usual stuff...like the black comb, hello kitty wet tissue, CAT coin purse, a gift chosen by mabe which i paid when we reach the cashier, my red pill box (mostly dolfenal 500, paracetamol, loperamide, simeco, and my metoprolol 50mg), garnier face powder, and Sony Cybershot camera because i don't bring my Canon 1000D all the time...

then my xoxo wallet given by sue when went to the US a few years ago, hairpins just in case my hair needs it, my holy rosary stored in small purple purse given to me by mariz, a long time friend whom i don't know the whereabouts now, really...bloom lipgloss, lip balm in round tin packaging i got from watsons, small sewing kit pack for emergency use (hehe) you'll never know when your pants will burst...a piece of steriled skin alcohol cleansing prep for small cuts and wounds, i dont know why i have this in my pouch, and a nailcutter with can opener souvenir from makati, got it when i was still in republic and makati was our sister city..

there goes my travel notebook, its where i scribble my research and contact numbers, addresses of places we've been planning to go to or been to recently...then the sterling notepad for anything and everything that needs to be jut down to, and of course my pens and pencil...there's a disposable toilet seat cover, a small bottle of incanto bliss cologne by ferragamo, my carmex lip balm for all sorts of things, from dry lips to cold sores to chapped skin..the long white tube is inhaler on one side and menthol oil in the other side, cool huh...and the white square thing is a sanitary napkin, just in case. opppsss there's one thing i can't find, my alcohol!!! where is it? i put it somewhere..now i can't find it.

seems like too many but if i stash it all in its pouches, these are all the things you can see inside my bag, though most of the time there's receipts, plastic bags and trash...this is what all i got for now.

i enjoyed this! i hope you too can share what's inside your bag...
