Balenciaga SGH Flat Clutches In Praline And Sanguine
(Reveal from 'Parcel Monday Part One...Part Deux')

Ever since my first mention about clutches and those from Balenciaga:-) I have become an 'addict'. And since Erica (HG bags) offers great pricing for her pieces and stocks more range than the Singapore boutique, I cannot help to snap up more when I get her inventory email update weeks ago. I miss out on her promotional offer of 10% discount on 2nd piece so I decided to try my luck with her ebay auctions. My eyes were keenly set on the flat clutches in Praline and Sanguine colour.

I am in no hurry to own any flat clutches therefore I leave the outcome of the auctions in the hands of the 'shopping gods' to determine if these babies will be part of my bag collection:-) I placed my maximum bid on ebay and to my surprise, woke up in the morning after the auction end date to find I won the SGH Praline Flat Clutch auction! I narrowly missed the SGH Sanguine Flat Clutch but Erica offered me a 'second chance offer' to buy the item at my maximum bid.

Well, I shall not disclose what I paid for. But I have to say it was one of the best deals ever:-) With prompt settling of payment, Erica did her usual speedy magic and the 2 flat clutches arrived at my office within days. I was so impressed with the leather of these clutches. Very smooshy, soft and beautifully distressed! They are very handy to take out for a sunday brunch or when you dun have much to carry. Perfect companion for travelling too, since I can put in my camera and wallet or even a book all inside. The external and internal zip pockets are very useful, so I highly recommend this Balenciaga design.

Praline simply looks amazing with SGH and Sanguine is my favourite red now! I am officially a Balenciaga addict! HELP!

DARN!
U bought the Praline SGH FC.
I emailed her about it during her recent clearance sale, and she replied with a "SOLD OUT!"
Had to settle with the next best alternative. Automne :)

You are so in huge trouble. I'm Bal addict, too. Having gone through 6 bags in 2 months only. The worst stastistic I've ever been in. And I have 2 more coming via my shopper. (My wallet's crying real hard now.)

Welcome to Bal's addict world.
;)

Love your Praline.
