It’s almost the end of my series and I wanted to add a little bit of my story into this post. Some of you are my fans and some of you are my new amazing readers. So I want to make this post to be a little bit more special and for you to learn a little bit more about me.
I was born and raised in Bangkok, Thailand where fashion shopping is like going to McDonald’s drive through here in the US, it’s everywhere, easy to find and access. If you didn’t know, we have a lot of open markets that sell lots of clothes, handbags, earrings, shoes and many more fashion items. It’s where my love for fashion had started.
I was always passionate about fashion and design. At one point in my life, I was designing and making bags and wallets to sell online.
When I was making bags I had put my heart in it and spent so much time creating them. I bought my own industrial sewing machine, and learnt how to use it by myself. I had to draw the design, make the pattern, cut fabrics, sew, decorate and then try to sell them online. It was a successful selling experience but it was too much work for me at that time. I was still in college and had to leave the house to go to class as early as six in the morning, just to beat Bangkok traffic. Came home around six, seven o’clock at night and had to work on making bags until one in the morning. Sometimes I was crying when I was making them. The amount of money I got wasn’t really worth my time and energy, so I decided to stop.
I’m still thinking of having my own bag collection one day though but for now let’s talk about an inspiring store that creates leather bags and accessories here in the USA.
Because I know exactly how hard and time consuming one bag can be made I respect the people who put their hearts and time in making these bags. That’s why today I want to introduce you to The Leather Expert, leather bags and accessories shop based in San Francisco, California, USA. Every bag is carefully cut and made by hand in their art studio.
If you are loving retro-classic and minimal- modern style, this store will be perfect for you. They use premium full grain vegetable tanned leather to make their bags and accessories, which is the leather that is tanned using non-toxic organic barks and leaves over a period of 30 to 40 days (unlike fast-made low-cost chrome tanned leathers that are harmful to health and environment).
Their bags have a natural organic look and sweet earthy smell of vegetable tanned leather which develops a gorgeous patina with time preserving the story of its owner and making each piece truly unique.
Here you can find from small accessories like key holders and wallets up to large travel bags and laptop briefcases. But today’s product I’m showing you is a black leather bag with tassels.
I love how fun but yet modern this bag looks. The tassels are really jazzed up and make this bag so cute and classy. White rose, brown and black are the available colors. This bag will go amazing with any style of clothes you put on and it’s perfect for all seasons too. You will love everything about it and never regret purchasing this bag.
The best part is you can ask the store to add a personal touch to your product with a monogram. Not only that, you can save up 10% by using this code “GOODVIBES”.
You can visit The Leather Expert to learn more about their store and see more designs here.
I hope you find this post helpful that you can add one more item into your Christmas Shopping lists. I recommend getting this bag for yourself or give it to someone who cares for a good quality leather product with timeless design.
See you again tomorrow my loves!
Enjoy the rest of your day!

Today’s gift idea is for someone who loves to put makeup on and loves beauty products. If you or your friends love to look gorgeous at all times, this gift will be perfect for you. This palette will be perfect for someone who loves to travel too because it has everything in it. It’s one of the Marc Jacobs beauty holiday collections and it’s a limited edition, that means if you miss it you won’t be able to find it anywhere. It’s an exclusive palette for the face and eyes with a blush, bronzer, a limited-edition luminizer, and six sumptuous eye shadows. The packaging is super beautiful and glamorous, you can also use it as an evening clutch. I’m putting this palette in my Christmas shopping list because I can’t get over how beautiful, the value and the quality you will get from this product is. So I’m putting it on my list and will get it soon.
This palette contains:
– 0.02 oz/ 0.56 g O! Mega Bronzer in Tantric
– 0.02 oz/ 0.56 g Blush in Exhibitionist (peachy rose)
– 0.02 oz/ 0.56 g Luminizer in Make a Sheen (cool gold shimmer)
– 6 x 0.04 oz/ 1.13 g Eye shadow in Lights On (beige shimmer), Candlelight (golden shimmer), Dimmer (matte light tan), Violet Hour (matte lavender), Twilight (deep plum shimmer), In the Dark (deep brown shimmer)
– Vegan patent leather case
If you’re planning to get it for yourself I recommend you go to Sephora or Marc Jacobs’ counter to try the colors and the texture of the palette on by yourself first, just to see the colors on your skin complexion. If you want to get it for your friends and/ or family members, I recommend doing the same thing so you will know for sure they love the product too. No one will waste their time and money buying- returning it.
I hope you’re getting one more new idea from my blog today. I hope you come back tomorrow to see what I’ve gotten to share with you.
Have a great day and an amazing night!
See you tomorrow my loves!

What perfect than statement accessories on a lazy day. Putting your favorite t-shirt and a pair of jeans on and add a little bit of fun by putting personality full accessories like these pairs of earrings I’m going to talk about. It’s just so perfect.
I found these pairs of earrings on bando.com but they’re already sold out today.
I’m still waiting for my pair to arrive. But don’t worry I found the store on Easy,
Benu Made, where the earrings were originally designed and created by, Pauline Hagan in Prague.
Benu Made is a creative jewellery brand combining shiny metallics, bold shapes and beautiful leather textures. They have a lot of beautiful designs you can choose from. You can visit their website here www.BenuMade.com
These playful hand earrings are made with high-quality leather and it comes in two sizes (6cm or 4.2cm high). I got the big one for me and I will feature them on my blog when I get them.
As you know everyone loves to feel special. I love my accessories to feel special too which mean I love custom made products. Here at Benu Made, you can custom make your pieces. Just reach out to the store and let them know what you have in mind. They can make it happen just for you. How wonderful is that?
If you know of someone who loves fun accessories, these eye-catching conversation piece earrings will be the right gift for them.
I hope I am giving you some new Christmas gifts ideas to put on your shopping list.
When it comes to cute bags I am so bad with saying NO. It gets even worse when the bags are on sale. Like the bag I’m going to talk about today. It’s a Zac Zac Posen Mini Eartha crossbody. This exact bag is on sale right now for $79.99 with the code “SAVEBIG” on Saksoff5th.com
I can’t believe this sale is happening right now. I don’t think it will last for long. If you don’t want to miss it, make sure you visit Saks off 5th, take a quick peek, put it in your cart and buy it before it’s gone for good. This promotion is driving me crazy right now. It makes me want to get 3 more bags in different colors. Lol!
I recommend you give this bag to your fashionista friends. Someone who loves structured types of bags. Someone who loves to have a statement piece in their closet. Someone who loves something cute. If you’re on budget trying to shop for some luxury bags, this is one of the items you can get your hands on and enjoy the discounted price.
We have a few more days to go until the end of our series. I hope you’ve gotten tons of ideas already but please make sure to come back tomorrow for the new idea I have to share with you. See you tomorrow my loves!
Enjoy your day!

How was your black Friday shopping experience today? I hope you had a great time shopping and saving some money on all the good deals today.
This black Friday weekend is so perfect to go Christmas shopping. Lots of stores came out with discounted prices, special gift sets, gifts with purchased promotions and many more products that can make great presents for this Christmas.
Today’s gift I’m going to talk about is actually one of the gifts that came out especially for black Friday and you can only find it at Macy’s. It’s a set of Clinique body creams, Sugared Petals scent, Berry Blush scent and a Clinique Happy Perfume Rollerball.
I first got the Clinique Happy Perfume and body lotion as my wedding gift from my girlfriend. I love the citrus and floral scents so much. It smell so good, no wonder why it’s on the best-selling women’s fragrance list. This year they came out with Gelato Body Cream. They’re perfect for any girls who love to smell good and like to have hydrated skin at all times.
This product has a value of $35.00 but because I purchased it on Black Friday, I was able to get it for only $12.00. It is a good gift to buy if you are on a budget or you’re traveling for the holidays to deliver your gifts.
Who’s this gift for?
You can give this gift to almost anyone who loves the scent of sweet flowers and citrus.
This set is the perfect size for someone that just wants to give it a try.
It is also good for someone who travels a lot because of its compact size.
I love the Berry Blush scent so much that I can’t wait for the perfume scent to come out. Let me go put some Berry Blush gelato cream on right now. I am sure I will have a happy and sweet night. See you tomorrow my loves!
