    Wink Help buyying my girls b/day present?

    Helllooooo guys.

    As some of you may know, I am returning to the Phils in August to see my girl in Cagayan for her 30th birthday.
    She wants a shoulder bag, and I just don't have an idea which one to get her??
    So, am asking all you Filipinas out there what styles you like in a bag
    As a guy, I have no sense whatsoever with this sort of thing.
    Am an engineer, hehehehehh


    Thanks alot.

    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    Before go to her town, drop by at Greenhills, you can see loads of branded (look like original) but its immitation from Hongkong legally, loads of bags down there nice and affordable, she will like it for sure

    But if financial doesnt bother you, buy her from UK, pinay like imported brand thou at least its from UK, arrgghhh

    My share,

    well in my opinion it is best that you take her to rockwell so she can choose her own present.. a handbag is very difficult to choose for a partner, but if you want to surprise her you can always go to harrods and get her a louis vuitton
    God grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change, the courage to change the things i can and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those people i had to kill because they pissed me off.

    Don't worry about the style Phil, when it comes to Filipina's it's the brand that counts. As long as it's known in Phils as an expensive or exclusive brand she'll be over the moon with it. Of course if it looks nice and classy as well that's even better.

    It's also more impressive if it's a brand that can't generally be bought in Phils.

    Fitzy,if its an original LV your after Kingston mate Bentalls I always drool at the Rolex's in there,especially the gold ones,just cant justify it at the momentYour going to save yourself 60-70 quid if you get it there on Harrods prices,though your not going to get a plastic carrier bag with HARRODS name emblazoned across it,but neither will you be charged a quid for a wee Bentalls toilets are free
