Branded goods and me don’t go hand in hand. The one branded item I ever owned was a Guess watch which I bought for myself when I got my first ever pay. It was love at first sight. I saw the watch on display, and I conquered it.
Unfortunately it died on me in less than 2 years and all the watch repair shops I visited told me to accept the fate of my watch. I stopped watch-ing after that. That’s how true my love was. I don’t think it would stop my soul from leaving my body if my time is up but yeah I really loved that watch like a lot, lot and I still think it’s a classic!
Recently I thought of giving myself a treat and was seriously considering Fara’s Kate Spade wallets but guess what arrived in the form of a gift from a contact in Myanmar? A handmade cloth/straw wallet!
With this on hand, I no longer have a good excuse to splurge on a Kate Spade wallet right now! 
Yes God I hear you, You want me to live simple. Cloth and straw it is for now.
Cloth and straw can’t possibly last very long right? A few months maybe? Muahahaha.

Oh, the cloth & straw will last for at least the next 5 years, haha :D
By the time this wallet will wear out, Sameer will be old enough to be able to buy it for you from his salary ;)
You know what I fell in love with that same guess watch when I was in P6!! And it seems all the girls back then was using that watch! But it was too expensive for me back then... I wanted it even all the way till I was in Sec 2.. Sighs... now I dun think they have it anymore!
Nadia, life can't be that unfair :P :P
Sue, now these watches are antiques! the reason i could'nt get it repaired was because Guess don't have the spare parts for it!
