Kate Spade Part II

And yes, Astro Girl's second Kate Spade bag finally arrived today!


It is a Kate Spade Charlottesville Small Darla cowhide leather handheld tote with zipper closure. It has an interior zip pocket and double slide pockets, and sports custom baton rouge rose print on faille lining, 14-karat light gold-plated hardware and ksny blind embossed signature on body. Grass in colour, it measures 9" x 9.9" x 3.1".

This uber-chio bag was first spotted by Eric Banana, who managed to convince the impossibly thrifty Astro Girl to buy it. Haha, most guys can't wait to stop their partners from buying bags. Eric Banana is the exact opposite. Anyway, back to the bag, the shape and size are just right, and the colour is eye-catching a.k.a. outstanding without being outrageous. Although Astro Girl already has a very nice Kate Spade tote bag, she knew deep inside her heart that she couldn't give this a miss. Well, to Eric Banana, different bags serve different functions on different occasions.

As to why AstroBanana do not buy Astro Girl's Kate Spade bags from the local boutiques, they do not quite like the attitude of the sales staff, who seem more interested in the art of ceiling appreciation. Besides, buying online at the right time is a cheaper option, even after factoring in the shipping costs and GST.


Eric Banana: So, any thoughts on your new Kate Spade bag?

Astro Girl: It matches the other one.

Eric Banana (puzzled): It does?? How so?

Astro Girl (in a cheeky tone): They are both tree colours - one green, one brown :P

Eric Banana (lost for words): ...


P.S. Kudos to DHL for making an exception to deliver on a public holiday.
