After almost a year of hiatus from this blog, I am starting over.
This blog will show a different side of me. Everybody knows me as a sweet and emotional person who always see the good in every people but I’m not always like that… Maldita rin ako minsan and I can be bitchy too sometimes. Super hirap din minsan na lagi ka na lang mabait when there are things that can really spark up your anger. I am still the same person, and I’ll always will be. I just need a place to rant where no one can judge me for the things that I want to think.
I love Juicy Couture simply because they are fluffy and usually in pink but there are a lot of fakes out there so here are some of the significant signs and tell-tales to help you spot a GENUINE Juicy Couture bag and or item:
>Bright Pink Juicy Couture Tag has a clear stitch and has the sticker printed serial number right inside of the label/tag
>”j” zipper charm/pull is made out of sturdy matt gold or shiny silver stainless steel material and is not merely coated with a dark gold paint
>heart appliques are clear and have clean stitches and the heart has a well defined shape and centered on the bag/wallet/box
>so far all those with the yorkie charms are authentic
>no neon velour colors with Daydreamer bags
>no loose stitches in the bag, no warps, no dents, no slanted shoulder straps
>the craftsmanship is obviously well-constructed and bag has a definitive shape,style and function
>all bags range from 9 thousand and higher, nothing less !
>standard packaging is constructed with the color pink, brown and gold which are the flagship colors of the stores worlwide…
Now, you can check the authenticity of your Juicy Couture.
We all know that designer bags are expensive and we must make an extra effort to take care of our beloved fashionable designer bags by learning to keep them properly. I do keep all my bags in their dust bags, all stuffed with their original stuffing. These are kept in a big closet of shelves, each shelf with 1 humidifier (the 1s in plastic boxes from supermarkets). I also put put desiccants in each bag.
Some pouches and wallet are also kept in dust bags with their boxes.
Every month, I spend an hour to air the bags, inspect these; and general clean the closet.
The best way to maintain the bags, per the experts, is to use the bag so that the leather doesn’t harden. So, do not buy bags to hoard — enjoy these as often as possible.
I have sent some bags for repair/replacement of the inner linings (even expensive designer bags’ interiors get “sticky” or damaged due to age or continued long storage) to Vintage Restore. Personally, if your bags just need cleaning — use Applegard. Vintage Restore charges too much just for cleaning — it is their base price (depends on the bag size) then they add another/other fee/s on top of the basic cleaning for any repairs. But if your bag is very damaged or has lost its luster due to prolonged storage — Vintage Restore can resuscitate your bag.
Have you ever felt like you’re here but you’re not really there? Confusing as it may seem but that’s how I feel right now. I know I’m here, I’m properly functioning and doing all my regular routines but it’s just like I’m doing it with automatic reflex and I just pass by the whole day without really knowing what I did or how I get there… I feel lost and empty, and I’m not really sure why. I am not inspired and I am not in the mood to do anything. There’s something wrong but I just can’t figure it out just yet.
It’s been awhile since I last posted here. I guess, I’m having an extended blogger’s block and I’m simply busy with a lot of things. I’ve been neglecting this blog and I vow to have a make-over here very soon…
I just hope I can find time, please watch out for exciting things to come here at Twisted Angel…
