Been gone a while, I know. Ever since we started on our little sideline, I've hardly had time to breathe! But today I was able to sneak in some eBay window shopping and oooh I fell in love with this clever bag:
It's the Kate Spade All Typed Up Clyde carry all. I love the bold red, the whimsical design. It's so retro-pop cool! I love it! So perfect for a writer. So perfect for me!
The price, however, is not so perfect. It's $695 or P29,850. Its retail price was $495 so I don't understand why the eBay seller jacked up the price. It's also in the US of A which means I'll have to pay extra for shipping. And someone already made an offer (I didn't know you can do that on eBay!) so by the time I save enough to buy it, it'd be long gone.
Sadness! Won't anyone out there buy it for me??? Here's the eBay listing. I really really really want it!!!
Or I can just go to a thrift shop, buy an old typewriter, take out the keys and glue it to my satchel! I think that, on the handmade leather satchel, it will look completely steam punk, though. What you think?

I wanted this Kate Spade journal clutch but the price just got too high. Considering list price was $125, I just couldn't pay the premium. Just kicking myself for not buying it when it first came out.

ReplyDeletesayang! Kate Spade here in the Philippines had this bag late last year. I got mine here.
ReplyDeleteThe image of you gluing typewriter keys to your satchel is so funny! (Wonderful idea, but please don't!) That red bag is a real beauty and yes, quite perfect for a writer like you.
ReplyDeletePS. I love my satchel (too much, I stare at it a lot. haha)!
Loopy Life, yes. I still dream about bags and dresses I let slip away on eBay haha!
ReplyDeleteMissM, I didn't see that bag here last year!!! Then again, it's a really pricey bag.
