Two Thousand Things : January 2017

Most Worn Item of 2016 + [Bag Review] : Coach Reversible City Tote Bag

My most worn fashion item of last year is probably the Longchamp Le Pliage bag that I have reviewed here. I've heard many great things about the Longchamp Le Pliage tote bags and I had the opportunity to own one (thanks to one of my blog sponsor), and I cannot stop telling people how they are indeed a very great bag to own! Mine is in Large size with long handle (LLH) in Gunmetal color (which is basically a grey-ish blue shade according to my eyes).

I basically worn that bag all through the year until it looks kinda tired by now, Lol. That's how frequent I wore it. And it's still going on strong!

I wore it almost everyday because it is such a versatile bag. The shade I chose is pretty neutral color to be worn everyday, and it makes it easy to mix n match with my daily casual outfit. I can wear it with jeans, shorts, skirts, dresses, basically everything. The high grade nylon material of Longchamp bags are also known for their super durability, so my Longchamp Le Pliage bag has gone from hot summer days to wet rainy days, even a heavy storm once! It also has sit on dusty surfaces, on hardwood floors, on a damp fishermen boat, and on top of very dirty sand-filled luggage on a back of an island car. And it survives it all! (^_^).

Anyway, that was my most worn fashion item for the year 2015 through the start of 2016. Now how about last year? Well my most worn item for last year (2016) is also another designer bag. A bag so versatile I could easily wore it everyday of the year if I want to :)

With the success story of my Longchamp Le Pliage large tote bag I was afraid I would ruin it before it gets old because of my frequent wearing. I already seen a few signs of usage in my Le Pliage and I don't want to push it even further, so I thought it was time to get another versatile bag like the Le Pliage. I did bought another Le Pliage tote bag but it was the small size with short handle. And I needed another large tote bag.

It was a coincidence too. I wasn't actually planning to buy this bag when I first saw it, but at that time I just lost my dear father and I was sad and was feeling depressed for days and days..., until my hubby (blessed him for his good heart) tried to cheer me up by offering me to buy a new bag to help my mood turn brighter a little bit.
So this bag was actually a gift from hubby and I will cherish it because it has many memories behind the purchase.

Anyway, I needed a new big-size tote bag that I can carry for daily or weekend errands (that I can use alternatively with my Le Pliage so I don't abuse it too often), so I purchased this Reversible City Tote Bag from Coach which I saw a couple times online before I finally purchased it.

I was intrigued by the reversible function of the bag and it also came with a detachable large pouch inside too! I chose the basic color of black/white shade because I was in need of a white bag and also a larger black bag. So with the reversible function and free pouch I basically got 3 bags with only 1 price :

- A Black Tote

- A White Tote

- A Large Pouch

The price was also very good because I got it during the sale season so it was less expensive (even now I still couldn't find store that sell them even cheaper than the price I paid for). So I thought I got a really good deal and I couldn't passed up the deal.

So here is a thorough review about the bag incase you wanted to buy the same bag and looking for the review. When I first purchased this bag there were not many store (online or offline) that offer this bag because it was a new type. But now I see them around in many local online store and bag boutiques that sell genuine designer bags, so I thought I'll write the review here for those of you who are looking to buy this particular bag (just make sure that you buy the original Coach bag, okay? ;p).

Reversible Side :

This bag's official name is the Coach Reversible City Tote Bag.

Mine is in Black/Chalk color. The size of the tote is big and large, and I believe they don't come in different sizes, only one size. It is overall a big tote bag, with a very big opening at the top. The bag has no zipper on top so it's an "open top" bag. There's no pockets, no style design or anything except for the Coach logo and a small tag attached at the handle.

Inside it you will find an extra large detachable pouch that you can also carry as a stand-alone pouch/clutch ! So I personally think that it's a great idea to purchase this bag as you will get to wear it in 3 different styles.

It came in many different color combinations and patterns. Mine is in the Black/Chalk color with a solid pattern (meaning: it has no pattern). I've seen other variations with patterns such as the signature pattern, a floral pattern, a leopard pattern, etc.

The material of the bag is like a pebbled / cracked leather. It's the one that looks like the skin of orange fruit. The bottom is structured enough so it can sit but the rest of it is a little bit flexible and lithe. The style though, is very simple and a bit blah, because it's only a solid colored tote bag with no pocket on the inside. There are no variations or extra details on this bag, you'll get a very basic tote bag with no pockets and basically no style.

But I get it, though. When it's a reversible bag it's hard to have pockets on the inside because when you turn it over into the other side then the pocket would hang on the outside, and it would be weird, right? So with reversible bags like this sometimes you'll have to sacrifice style 😜

You will get a detachable pouch inside in matching color/design. Your additional pouch would match the color of the bag. Mine is in black color with a white text design on the front as you can see on below photo. The pouch is also quite large in size and it's thin and slim but flexible enough to fit a lot of random things inside. Compared to the free pouch in Louis Vuitton Neverful Tote this one has more of a felixibility in it where as the LV pouch is more stiff and very thin and slim so you can't exactly put anything bulky inside it. So I prefer this free pouch from Coach because it has a little bit more room inside. The zipper also comes all the way to the side, making it more wide to put in bulky stuffs such as my BBW hand sanitizer or my thick BB Cushion :

the zipper comes all the way to the side, enable it for a larger opening

The size of the tote bag itself is almost similar as the Longchamp Le Pliage tote bag in large size, but this one has no zipper on top so the Longchamp is safer to use. So every time I use this Coach tote bag in a very busy place I must remember to keep it close to my body so that no one would try to pull out anything from my open top bag. My LV Neverful tote bag also has an open top but that one has a hook system near the top opening so I can hook it to make the opening smaller, hence making it a little bit safer from potential thieves.

But anyway, I do love how big it is because I basically can put anything and everything inside this bag. The only flaw is it has no compartments so when I put in all my things inside it would be a little bit harder to try find the item afterwards. Usually I would put my items into different smaller pouches so it would be less messy inside my bag. I would also use the detachable pouch it came with to try organize my things inside the bag.

Another thing I love about this bag is the reversible effect. I'm the girl who always love to dress up matchy-matchy, so when I travel or when I have a stay-over and need to change outfits this bag would be on top of my choice. Because I can just bring one bag (this bag) and it would match every outfit that I plan to wear during my trip.

For instance, I can use the black side of the bag for day one, then on day two I can use the white side of the bag to match my other outfit. And then at night I could use the detachable pouch to go for a dinner or event. So I don't need to bring many bags anymore just to match the outfit and the events. Now I can only bring this one bag and all my outfit would be complete 🙂

(large opening)

(logo and tag)

(care card)

Oh and one thing to note, reversing the bag from one side to the other was actually not that easy. The texture and material of the bag is rather thick and a little bit stiff so it's not that easy to reverse it. And I also don't wanna damage the bag if I reverse it too often so I try not to reverse it frequently.

So, to recap :

+ Reversible so I can wear two sides / two colors
+ Came with detachable pouch
+ The material is durable
+ It came in different colors / patterns
+ It's a big tote / perfect for travel

------------------------------------------

- It's a little bit too big on my petite frame
- There's no pockets and compartments
- It's an open top and the opening is large so it's not safe for crowded places

The price for this bag is on the lower range of designer bags price level, and I would say that it is a bargain considering you will get two bags (because it's reversible) + 1 Coach pouch in one price.

The tag says original price is $350 but I'm sure this bag is always on sale because I keep seeing resellers offering way cheaper price than that. I think you can also get this bag in Coach factory outlet store so it's always on bargain price. I myself got this bag for around 60% off the original price in Indonesian Rupiah. So always look for a steal or bargain price for this particular bag, don't settle for the full price, Lol 😜

That's it for my review. If you like these kind of reviews just let me know in the comment below, and I will try to make more designer reviews like this because I know how important it is to research first before buying things like this. I don't have lots of money but I always try to save some money towards buying the things on my wish list, and when I finally accumulated the money I would usually do a heavy research before deciding to buy. So that was my intention when writing reviews like this, so I can offer more knowledge that could be useful in helping you decide whether or not to get a particular designer item (because I know they're not actually cheap and we have to weigh in first and think thoroughly before deciding to buy them).

I also include some pictures from when I first got the bag so you'd know how it would look like when it was fresh from the store. I hope this review would somehow help you decide, especially if you're looking to buy the same bag. Meanwhile, thank you so much for reading my blog!

Hugs n' Kissies,

[Guest Post] : Three Ways to Wear Your Luxury Watch in 2017

Did you receive a brand new watch for Christmas? Lucky you! Now, how to style it?

Sure, you can wear it the ‘old-fashioned way’ and slip it on your wrist. Or you could try something different in 2017? Blaze a trail when it comes to style and stand out for all the right reasons.

Here’s how to wear your watch this year:

Turn It Into a Quirky Accessory
You might not own a pocket watch but you could still turn yours into one – and don’t be afraid to wear one in this way as a woman. Generally, pocket watches are worn by men but the vintage look is still very much a thing in 2017 and this is a cool, retro wear to style your favourite timepiece. Why not pop your watch in your pocket, fastened on a brooch or even around your neck on a long chain? If you do decide to try any of these ways to wear a watch, keep other accessories pretty minimal so there isn’t too much going on in your outfit.

Want to be really quirky? Wear your watch upside-down; a simple flick of the wrist will ensure you can still tell the time but it’ll add interest to your outfit and may also prove to be a fun ice-breaker at parties and work events.

Make a Statement of a Subtle Watch
Did you receive a simple, delicate-looking watch as a gift? Make a statement of it by pairing it with several bangles or small bracelets. Choose multi-coloured pieces to ensure a plain silver strap really stands out on your wrist. This look works best when your outfit is pretty understated – a black pair of trousers and a crisp, white shirt – but it can look just as good when dressed up too. You could also wear your watch over your shirt or sweater, to give added oomph to a simple-looking piece of wristwear.

Attach it to Your Handbag
As far as style statements go, this is a fairly bold one. But if wearing a watch on your wrist irritates you, why not find a way to attach it to your handbag so you can check the time at a glance while still showing your new timepiece off? Be very careful when attaching your watch to your handbag; you won’t want it to drop off onto the floor. If this doesn’t take your fancy, try the method we mentioned above: fashion your watch into a brooch and wear it on your coat.

How do you style your watch? Do you have another unique way to wear it that we haven’t mentioned here?

2016 - Year In Review & Acquisitions

I know I am super late in posting this but it's already in my draft for a very long time so I might as well post it now :)

So as you might already know (if you're a regular old follower here in my blog - thank you by the way!) I usually put on some kind of a "yearly review" at the start of every new year. It's just for my own personal notes and reference, to see what I've been up to all through the year, and what are the highlights as well as the downsides of that particular year. So here's my yearly review of last year (2016).

Last year was not an easy year for me. Life as we know always have its ups and downs. Most years I got lots of things to be thankful about, but last year was one of those years where life gave me so much lessons to think about. I do still appreciate and grateful of things that I had (or successfully acquired last year) but it was also the year of many sadness and loss that hit close to home. After a few months of what I called a "mini depression phase" I finally stood again and started to walk the path that has been given to me. For that period of my life I'm really thankful to God Almighty for giving me my husband who has been very attentive and supportive and who went and did everything he can to make me feel happy again. I know I couldn't move on without his endless support and attention, and I thank you dear hubby for allowing me to have you by my side ...

----------------------

Okay, now enough with the sad story, now let's get on with the notes ...

JANUARY

At the start of last year me and my big family had our annual "family retreat" at Camp Hulu Cai (approximately on 2nd & 3rd January) for an outdoor family adventure trip. I did a detailed review of Camp Hulu Cai which is located at Tapos, Puncak area on my other blog "Tigerlily's Book" if you wanna check it out.

And after experiencing a miscarriage in the previous month (December 2015) we did another check up at the obgyn office and found out that I need to do a laparoscopy (a minor surgery) but I'm still thinking about whether or not I should do it because I never had a surgery before and I'm afraid to do it. For this whole month I was upset and basically living in sorrow because of the miscarriage (we've been trying to have baby for so long). Apparently my dear Hubby noticed my deep sadness, and to get me out of my misery he offered me to buy a new bag that I want, that has been on my wish list for so many decades! It's not just a random bag, but it's MY DREAM BAG!! Isn't he a dearest? He really knows how to make his wife feels alive again, which is buying her the ultimate item that's been on her dreams for so long (Lol, I love you ayang if you're reading this :p).

So that's the story of how I finally got my top-of-the-wishlist bag: LV Neverfull MM in Damier Ebene !! (Finally, my dream bag ... Alhamdulillah). Big thank you to hubby for spoiling me!

At the start of the year I also did a little designer haul : a CK jumper from their Performance line, and I also found a vintage Fendi "Luggage" & Celine "Medallions" handkerchief / mini 50cm scarves from a vintage store that I frequented.

FEBRUARY

There was nothing special happened during this month except that I bought another item to add to my collection. It wasn't that pricey because I know we just splurged a lot last month, so it's just a small item that I thought would be great to store my phone inside my bag. It is a preloved Coach Tassel Wristlet in purple color. After it arrived I found that it didn't really fit my phone though, so I just used it for my makeup pouch (it only fits my Mac Studio Fix compact, my Burts Bees Cherry Lip Balm Shimmer, and a random lipstick). Or I would also use it as my wallet replacement if I'm just heading out to nearby mini market or laundry.

This month also marked the beginning of my skincare frenzy! This was the month when I started to get crazy with skincare, learning more details about them, starting to incorporate acids and facial oils into my routine, and so on... :)

MARCH

This month I joined the Sociolla team as one of their official Sociolla Blogger, yay! I have loved shopping at Sociolla so I was happy to join their sociolla bloggers squad. This month I also did another mini purchases. I was in a shopping mood since the start of the year because that's how I cope with my sorrow (it's kinda pathetic, I know). But that's the truth, shopping makes me happy (although just until the euphoria wears off). Anyway, this month I saw one of my wish-list bag on Reebonz that I thought was in a really good offer. They were having double discounts and I still have my reward points to further reduce the price so I thought it's just too good to passed up. So I went ahead and bought my second Longchamp bag which is the SSH Le Pliage Bag in Beige. My first Le Pliage was a Large with Long Handle, and I fell in love with Le Pliage bags ever since then. So I've been wanting them in all three sizes. The one that I bought is the SSH - Small size with Short handle - which is exactly the style I want. Now I only need one more, which is the Medium size with Long handle to complete my LC Le Pliage collections (^o^).

One more luxury purchase this month was a Laduree Macaroon Keychain (well actually hubby bought me this one ;p). I've been wanting to dress up my bags with bag charms and keychains as these styles were popular around this time (actually until now), so I've been eyeing this Laduree keychain with pretty macaroons charm that I imagined would look pretty on my LV Damier Ebene and my MK Jet Set Tote Bag (because I order it in brown color to match those bags). So I made a purchase-order through a seller and got the keychain via Laduree Japan, it was so pretty and it sparked my bag-accessorizing phase (^o^).

APRIL

This month my nephew Raka was born. He is my brother's son and my parent's first grandchild, so we're all very happy and lucky to have him. This month I also had a campus reunion so we went to Bandung and I had a lot of fun time with all my old friends. It was really a blast and it lifted my mood, feeling like a young 20 something again, LOL. Me and hubby also took our time to check out the Farm House Lembang which was a popular destination at the time, especially because of the "Hobbits House". We're lucky that it wasn't at all crowded because we arrived there just after the rain has subsided, so not many people visited this place probably because of the rain. Also, this month was hubby's last day in his old office (Th*e*s), so here's hoping for a brighter future!

Another cheering up session is our overseas trip. This month me and hubby had our first Singapore trip together! Yes believe it or not, each of us have went to Singapore before but never with each other (;p). So I guess it's due for us to have a S'pore trip together as we both love Singapore as a travel destination. Our main destination this time is the USS because this was my husband's first USS experience. We had a great time walking around everywhere and I did my first ever designer footwear haul too! It was at the Changi airport on our way home bound to Jakarta that my feet are killing me and I almost couldn't walk anymore because my feet and shoes were hurting so much from too much walking for three days. So I did an impulse shopping, I decided to buy new shoes because my feet just couldn't take it anymore. We went to Coach store and couldn't find anything that I like so we went to Tory Burch and I decided to get the TB Two-Tone Jelly Bow Ballet Flats in Classic Khaki/Black. It is actually more like a taupe color in real life instead of khaki. Because of the jelly material it feels very cooling on my tired feet so I decided to get that one because it feels nice on my aching foot. This was my first Tory (!), and my first designer footwear too.

Another purchases this month are a white swarovski t-shirt and a black swarovski tanktop that I got from the Bebe sale.

MAY

May is my husband's birthday month. We celebrated by treating my hubby's family to a weekend-stay in Grandhika Iskandarsyah hotel. It was a stay-cation because the hotel is still in Jakarta greater area, but yet a stay-cation is always fun! A review of this hotel would come up soon on my other blog "Tigerlily's Book".

This month I purchased a knitted cardigan from Morgan De Toi at a branded outlet sale. I also acquired a not-so-ordinary haul this month because one of my regular vintage shop offered their new findings: designer brand towels! It is not your ordinary haul items but I thought I'd give it a go because I'm thinking that I could put these fancy towels in my guest bathroom in my future house (*EdisiNgayal*). So I bought a couple of them anyway because the store offered me good discounts: a Burberry sports towel which I intend to use as my traveling towel, and a couple of smaller (hand) towels from MCM and another one from Burberry which I currently use as my face towel.

JUNE

This month.

Oh this month was the hardest.

..........

On June 30th, just a week before Ied day, my beloved father passed away :(

We were all shocked with the sudden passing of my Papah (even I'm still shuddering when I typed this). It was very sudden, he fell on the stairs and had a major head trauma. It was a very hard moment for me and my family, and we went through despair and desolation for many weeks and tried our best to get our feet back up again from the saddest moment of our life. I'm thankful for my friends and extended-family's supports during that hard time and even until now I'm still sad thinking about my dad as he was a very loving figure in our family. You were gone too soon Papah... but I know you're happier in where you are now.

Anyway, this month was also the Ied month, and due to my father passing away just a week before Ied day so this was the first time we celebrate Ied without our dad. I didn't go to Bandung as usual because we were still in mourning.

At the end of the month, again hubby tried to cheer me up and lifted my mood by offering me to buy a new bag. He is always the sweetest, and he knew how to make me feel happy. He treated me to dinners outside, strolling the malls, and took me to wherever I want to go just to cheer me up. He also treated me with some new shoes from Payless and also another bag to add to my acquisitions (thank you hubby!). I chose the Coach Reversible Tote Bag in black/white so I can have two bags with one price! Also, there's a big detachable pouch inside which I can also use as a clutch. So it's basically getting three purses in one price. I think it's worth it :)

(the reversible tote bag)

JULY

This month hubby is trying his hands on a new business, flipping and selling cars in partnership with his friend who owns a showroom. It is his first time doing independent business because all this time he's been working in a corporate office, so he's learning how to do business from the bottom up.

This month also marked my phase of "green decor". To steer myself out of grief I decided to have a new hobby so I wouldn't have much time to think about all the sad and stressful things in my life. So I took up a new love for green decor in which I decorate my apartment with greenery / plants / flowers and so on. I also added a couple of new things to decorate my apartment that involves some live or fake greenery, just to make my place more cheerful (at least when I looked at them I'd feel happy).

I also received an early birthday gift from hubby this month which is a new lens for my Sony Alpha Mirrorless Camera. It is a nifty-fifty lens which has been on my wish list ever since I got the camera last year. My birthday wasn't until the next month but there was a special promo going on during this month that hubby thinks is a very good offer, so we decided to get it before the promo ended and think of it as my early B'day gift instead :)

AUGUST

This month marked my dad's 40 days of passing away in which according to our religious + local custom we had a communal prayer in our house. Can't believe it's already a month since he passed away and our hearts were still broken. Not long after the communal prayer we had in our house, we heard another sad heart-breaking news. My uncle who was my mother's closest brother, who has been a father figure to me and my brother since we were babies, also passed away in a sudden heart attack. Just two months after our dad's passing away. My mother was mostly devastated as she lost both her husband and her closest brother in just a short time. We all had a hard time coping with the sudden loss in our family :(

Again, to steer me off from depression I tried to do things that would occupy my brain so that I don't have time to mourn all the time. I started to redecorate our kitchen just to take my mind off things. This month was my birthday month and our anniversary month too, but due to the great loss that we experienced we didn't have any energy to celebrate anything. We dutifully mourned and prayed for those we have lost...

SEPTEMBER

I always said that there's usually two things that a girl would do when she is sad : Shopping & Cut their hair in beauty salon (although not necessarily in that order :p). So this month I finally decided to cut my hair at the Blow+Bar Kemang for just a nice trim and nothing drastic. But I haven't cut my hair at the hairdresser for three years! All this time I just trim my hair at home by myself using a hair-cut tools I received as a review project a long time ago. So this hair-cut at Blow+Bar is something that I haven't done in three years ;p I thought my hair needs some serious styling this time instead of just self-trimming at home, Lol.

I also did another shopping spree this month as part of my mood-buster therapy to cope with my depression. My acquisitions this month include a Kate Spade Bow Dress which was on sale, a preloved Miu Miu Dress and Isabel Marant wool knit Sweater which was still in very good condition, and a pair of Next Jeans which was also on sale at their counter. Oh and we also have a new cat this month! She is actually a stray cat that comes to our house and decided to stay (^_^). Then we found out that she was having this huge lump of mass underneath one of her front legs and although she is a stray cat but we decided to get her to the vet and hubby paid for her operation so that she can be healthy again. She is a sweet cat and we even took her to our apartment to rest for a week after the surgery so that she won't be bothered by our other cats at my parent's house. Alhamdulillah she is now healthy and the huge lump underneath her shoulder has gone now. Hopefully she would have a long happy life now.. :)

OCTOBER

I didn't do much blogging and/or other freelance jobs this year due to the many sad moments that happened in my life this year. At the beginning of the year I was still in misery due to losing my first pregnancy so I wasn't really in the mood for blogging. Then near the middle of the year towards the end of the year I was having a mini depression phase due to all the loss in the family. So that's why this year I didn't have many experiences and blogging stories to tell. I just kept shopping and shopping all through the year because that's how I cope with sorrow and depression (aside from praying of course). I haven't been able to come to events because I didn't feel like socializing due to the mini depression phase I had, but this month I made the exception. I went to Asmaraku blogger event as I was part of a new community which is the Blogger Ceria Community.

This month I also did another haul from Reebonz because I spotted a great discount on a pair of shoes I've been coveting. Espadrilles were very popular at the time and because I couldn't afford the most coveted Chanel ones, I went with the less pricey option: the Kenzo Tiger Espadrille. This was on my coveted list of designer footwear, so when I saw that Reebonz has it in different colors and in good price offer I immediately calculate on how I could afford it without being broke, Lol. I finally decided to get the Kenzo Embroidered Espadrille in Aqua, a really nice sky blue color in canvas material and the iconic tiger at the front. Because I'm a Leo so I love anything with a tiger on it (^_^).

NOVEMBER

This month I tried to be a little more active again in my blogging, by collaborating in the Juara x Clozette project, and also got invited to the Sociolla soiree - but sadly I couldn't make it at the last minute. Hubby finally got a new job this month, Alhamdulillah (and as Asst Mgr too!). I also decided to start a new TTC program with chinese herb medicine : I'm taking fukepenkayen & bai feng wan for my hydrosalphing problem (google it). So wish us luck!

DECEMBER

At the end of the year we had one more vacay trip that we all think we desperately needed. My uncle generously asked my family to go on a vacay trip with his family to Anyer. My uncle felt that our family needed this trip and we do indeed! We had fun during our 3 days 2 night stay, and this time we stayed in Sanghyang Hotel (which I would also review later on my travel & home blog "Tigerlily's Book").

This month I also heard another sad news about a blogger friend of mine, Rini from Rinicesilia.com who recently passed away just after doing a blogging stint in Bali. She was a very popular Korean-style blogger, and she was one of the bloggers I know since my first days of blogging many years ago. We had known each other from the start and I watched her grow her blog until what she had become, yet she still stays humble and probably IS the MOST humble blogger I know personally. She was also gone too soon... and may she rest in peace..

This month we also had our nephew Bagas spent the night with us at the apartment. This was his first time staying over a little bit far from his home and we're glad that he really enjoyed it much (^_^).

Lastly, we also didn't go fancy for the New Year's celebration as we were not really in the mood for that. We just spent it at home with my in-law sisters and brothers, had a barbecue night, and the next morning we went to my mom's house to have lunch together.

Although it's not my best year but I am still grateful for all the lessons I've learned and all the blessings I received during the year. It is a heavy burden to lost someone so close, but yet it helps us value life and value those around us. Thank you so much 2016 for all the hard lessons, and here's hoping 2017 to be a much better year for me and my family!

Amien...
