Surprise Gifts from Friends

Hello everyone!

This is once again going to be just another quick post. I'm trying to get into the habit of posting as frequently as I can, and an easy way for me to do that is basically through quick posts. That does not mean that I will be stopping my beloved long posts however. It just means that they will be postponed for the time being. ^^; So bear with me there!

Anyway, this time I had received some surprise belated birthday gifts from two very good friends of mine, which was very nice of them since I was not expecting such things. xD I had gotten a ring and a headband.

The ring is very sparkly and has a big pink gem in the center. 

The headband is very nice. It has two big pink gems on either side surrounded by rosettes and sparkly glass beads. I like how the center has a white rose along with some "dangly bits". It adds to the whole girly look of the headband. 

Unfortunately, it looks like some of the beads came off during transit, as seen here. :( But where are the rest of the beads?

Oh.... there they are...

Fortunately, not all hope is lost, for I can easily repair it back up and possibly make it better than ever! Anyway, those are my gifts! I cannot wait to wear them, but not until I finish fixing up the headband. 

Guess Amour Bag Haul

Hello everyone!

This is just going to be a short post on my latest bag! To be honest, I did not really want or need a new bag, since I already have way too many in my closet. None-the-less, if it's cute, might as well buy it right? Nothing you can do about it. xD

Anyway, my latest bag is the Guess Amour Dome Tote. It has just about everything that a hime could want in a bag. Quilted pattern, check. Cute dangling charms, check. Pink or pastel colour, check. Lots of space for the bare essentials, check! I had seen this little beauty when I was shopping with my mom and my sister at the Bay. (Actually I lied. It was my sister that had seen it first) With me being a poor sucker for cute bags, I just can't resist getting it, plus it was part of a sales promotion as well! The original price was $160, but with the addition of $50 dollars off and a 15% discount, I only had to pay around $93! Not bad for a bag that was not really on sale at the time. I will probably use this as my new school bag.

I usually don't buy Guess bags. None that I had seen up to now had really appealed to me, though I like their Amour series. (the same series that this bag is part of) From what I can glimpse from another blog, apparently the word "Amour" means love in French, which is really fitting for the collection.

Anyway, with that being said and done, what are your opinion on Guess handbags?
