Prada Bag Reveal!

I just want to start this off by giving a huge shout out to my mom - Momma Chen!  Thanks mom!! :) This is a belated Christmas/Valentines pressie I guess haha.. the perils of living overseas you get presents... well whenever the postal service decides to give them to you haha.

I've been on the hunt for the perfect travel carry all bag for MONTHS!  Since BEFORE I left San Francisco (over 8 months ago!) I'd tossed around the idea of the LV Neverfull to the Goyard St. Louis and everything else in between!











Next to my large Longchamps Pliage weekender.


It fits both the Hubs and mine stuff for a weekend getaway!

  11. Wow, your family gives great gifts. My family usually does coupons like "One I'll leave you alone, while you're doing homework" kind of things...

  16. I like that it has a zipper...which is one of the reasons why I passed on the LV Neverfull. The blue is also a great color for travel, a great alternative to black. :-)

  17. What a wonderful mom!! Wow. That is so gorgeous and the perfect size.

  18. whoooaaa that's a big bag - but the bigger the better right? its awesome! i like the fact that it has a zipper :) and i like the colour and the fact that prada is more underrated beauty and lux than lv with the monograms all over it (although i do have the lv neverfull ;p_

  19. Your mom is too sweet! You are reminding me to get my Hayden Harnett Ibiza weekender bag out again!

  20. Yay to Momma Chen! :D What a gorgeous bag!! The zippers and the long strap really make it perfect for travel. I love the durability of Prada's nylon too.

  21. wow, that is a gigantic bag! i can prob fit in it if i did some bending hahahahaha how sweet of your mom!

  22. omnomnom suchhhhh a gorgeous bag! I wish my mum got me awesome presents like that, I think my last present was a straightener/curler in one...both of which I already owned

    ReplyDelete
  23. Great bag! Now you have to plan a weekend away ;)

    ReplyDelete
  24. This looks like a very practical and lightweight travel bag. The canvas is durable, light and so easy to look after.

    ReplyDelete
  25. MAMA did a good job!! I love my Neverful because I get to throw stuff in it and it's strong as heck but the downfall is the fact that there is no zipper. So when you bring it as a carry on and you are forced to over head it, you get paranoid that someone goes into your bag because it's open.

    LOVE THE BLUE TOO!!
