SLGs (Small Leather Goods)

A few months ago I was desperate to find a cardholder/small wallet because I had just bought a Rebecca Minkoff MAC and my Louis Vuitton Sarah was way too big to fit in it. The Sarah pretty much took up half the bag and I could barely fit my essentials (ex. sunglasses, camera, keys, etc.). 

At first I was looking to get one of these from Louis Vuitton:

Louis Vuitton Cardholder $270 USD

Louis Vuitton Zippy Coin Purse (ZCP) $470 USD

I was debating between these two for a while, because I LOVE vernis leather; it's both classy and super durable. I ultimately decided against it because I didn't want to spend an arm and a leg on a wallet I probably won't use all the time. 

I ended up getting the Rebecca Minkoff ziparound wallet ($125 USD) a month or two ago:

...BUT today I discovered (and bought) this Marc by Marc Jacobs Classic Q wallet:

I like the MBMJ one A LOT better than the Rebecca Minkoff. It's more compact and also has an ID window (which is always a plus when you're a student). I never even used the RM one because it was too bulky for the purpose that I wanted it for. I got mine on sale at Aritzia for $125+tax (reg. $138). Not a huge discount, but better than paying $300+ right? I'm also selling the Rebecca Minkoff one so that offsets what I paid for the MBMJ one. 

Here's some comparison pictures of the RM and MBMJ:

After several failed attempts at maintaining a blog, I've decided to create a new one and STICK with it this time. Hopefully this blog won't fall through like every other New Year's resolution I've had for the past few years (i.e. losing weight). As for the name of the blog, I literally just wrote down the first words that came to mind.

TLDR (too long didn't read): New blog about fashion, lifestyle, & whatever else I can think about.
