Bag Crush: Cath Kidston’s Bowler Bag

05.09.2016 by Leah // 7 Comments

I’ve always wanted to own a classic bowler bag, so you can just imagine my excitement when I saw that my favorite British bag brand has come up with one, in its signature design and material (PVC coated cotton):

Cath Kidston’s version of a bowler bag is perfect for me who doesn’t like high maintenance bags and would like to enjoy it for everyday use.  No luxury leather material to maintain, no glossy/shiny hardware (that’s prone to scratches) and just plain cuteness with Cath Kidston’s classic buttons print.

Cath Kidston’s bowler bag comes in 2 sizes: a regular bag that measures 35 x 21 x 17 cm. and a mini version (which I prefer) that measures 25 x 19 x 15 cm.

The adjustable, removable strap gives one an added flexibility of carrying it as shoulder bag too.

Don’t you just love it??  And the price is absolutely pocket-friendly (as compared to signature bowler bags).  This mini version that I heart is priced at only £55.00 (reference: cathkidston.com).

But for sure the Cath Kidston shops in Manila will sell it at 2x the online price (are duties and taxes really that expensive??) so I am thinking of ordering it online.

And while I’m at it, I might as well get this limited edition birthday book bag commemorating the Queen’s 90th birthday!

      Hi Donna! You’re right; my orders can’t get through as well. I’m still checking if they have changed their online shopping guidelines. Sayang dami pa naman naka-sale!!

    I like this style; I find it a classic. 🙂 Was browsing through their selection of bags at the Trinoma Branch, pero ang mahalia! Kaya hanggang browse na lang ako. 😉

9 months ago this feisty little cat we named Gigi 9 months ago this feisty little cat we named Gigi came to us super dirty (gusgusin to the max), malnourished and is in bad need of treatment for worms and fleas. Who would've thought that she will bloom into a really pretty cat, with salmon-colored nose, beautiful doe eyes, a prominent white hair scarf, and powdery white cheeks. 

But she is very far from innocent, and is now feared by the male cats here twice her size because she is #GigitheCatBully pala 😅 

Happy 9th monthsary, Gigi Ganda 🥰

To My Father By Georgia Harkness A giant pine, ma To My Father
By Georgia Harkness

A giant pine, magnificent and old
Stood staunch against the sky and all around
Shed beauty, grace and power.
Within its fold birds safely reared their young.
The velvet ground beneath was gentle,
and the cooling shade gave cheer to passers by.
Its towering arms a landmark stood, erect and unafraid,
As if to say, “Fear naught from life’s alarms”.
It fell one day.
Where it had dauntless stood was loneliness and void.
But men who passed paid tribute – and said,
“To know this life was good,
It left it’s mark on me. Its work stands fast”.
And so it lives. Such life no bonds can hold –
This giant pine, magnificent and old.

~

To our shelter and safety while he lived, we miss you so much.
Happy 2nd Year in Heaven, Daddy ❤
