Christian Dior

okay this is worh breaking away from studying.

i've been looking for a small bag to hold under my arm pit kind cause for all of you who know me, i'm the one with the bag pack or the huge sling bag, none of which coordinates with my clothes. i'm the sneakers girl, in jeans and t-shirt.

anyway, i can't shop, nor am i the person who will willingly part with my money for such trivial shopping accessories.

my mum is cleaning out her closets. and my parents used to be pretty well to do, i'd admit. and friends and relatives buy really expensive gifts. back then, EVERYONE was pretty well off.

so my mum has this bag. and she doesn't want it. she doesn't like it. to her, it's so small, it's an odd colour, it's an even odder shape. i can never use this. i can only assume she was gonna give it away. i saw it. simple, blue, small. it was perfect. i tried it. hey, it looks great. then i see the CDs on the straps. huh. oh! my god. it's Christian Dior, isn't it? oh okay. is it expensive? like... hundred bucks?

now i'm a dumb dumb. i don't know labels or brands or whatever. i see hey it fits. hey it's nice. hey it's cheap. alright, i'll take it. she said it's an expensive gift. i dun really know.

i find it online.

it's selling on like ebay and amazon for like $500!!! and then i see that its freaking retail is $900!! USD no less!!! it's looking pretty intimidating now. but when i see the pictures... something ain't right. i thought maybe the picture had added on something. i opened the bag and looked closer and realised...

oh my god...

my mum cut out the leather strap of the bag. never mind, designer brand, whatever. i don't like this part, i'll just snip through it.

yikes.

at least i got a new bag...

people please, say whatever you wish on this startling discovery. i need to know people are reacting similarly to me!
