My Paul Smith Bags Wishlist

It's the 15th day of the month and it's bills paying time again for the Sombrero household. 

Bills paying time sometimes depresses me. A lot of money comes in but I never get to buy anything nice for myself (anything nice meaning expensive things that makes Alvin's eyebrows shoot up to his forehead by the mere mention of them). It's always distributed to the house rent, expenses and house help salaries. Anika's milk and diapers are like buying two pairs of Havaianas weekly! Seriously.

Anyways, my hubby promised me a bag if I give birth normally to Anika because it would mean we'll be spending less for the hospital bills. However I delivered through C section, but because of the hard (and super long) labor I went through with Anika, he said he'd still buy me one =) Super lucky wifey here!! *big smile!*

PROOF: While I was in labor, after telling Alvin that she'll do a C-section on me na, my OBGyn whispered to me, "Don't worry, Alvin said he'll buy you pa din your bag kahit Cesarian ka". I have the nurses of Manila Doctors's Labor Room witness this. haha! =D

No pressure but he said I can buy it on December so for the meantime, I'm internet "window" shopping for the bag that I want and I found them in Paul Smith's Online Shop. I copied the description for your information and indicated the price (for Alvin harhar!)
