Samatha Thavasa's Office Handbag

Hello, office ladies! Have you finished working for the day? Or are you hiding somewhere in the office to read this office? Either way, Noona understands well because she herself is an office lady and it is so easy for the office workload to become oh-so-mundane. Other than the required skill to do our job well, one of the criteria for modern office lady is to have an "it" office handbag. If you are looking for one, Noona found out a new season of Samantha Thavasa's Office Handbag. 

Samantha Thavasa Bonnie 

Since it is now officially autumn season. Noona prefers to wear something in neutral color like beige and brown. The light brown Samantha Thavasa Bonnie bag is big enough for an office wear and it is made from cow leather. The Bonnie bag costs KRW 598,000 which is equivalent to USD 520. 

Samantha Thavasa Linda

Another Samantha Thavasa's office handbag style that Noona likes is Linda. Linda comes in darker brown compared to Bonnie. It seems that Linda has "more" structure compared to Bonnie too. This will be more suitable to those of you, office ladies, who likes to carry files in their bag. Price-wise, Linda bag costs slightly more expensive than Bonnie at KRW 658,000 which is equivalent to USD 572. 

Yoon Eun Hye, Samantha Thavasa's Muse

Okay, the bag looks nice but how does it looks like when the bag is worn in real life? Yoon Eun Hye, the current muse of Samantha Thavasa in Korea, shows how to wear Samantha Thavasa's office handbag beautifully. 

This is how Yoon Eun Hye looks while wearing Bonnie bag. Since Bonnie's color is lighter, when you pair Bonnie together with pastel color soft, you can create a feminine look to your whole look. Pair the whole combination with a strong heels (or wedges if you dislike heels). 

The next picture shows Yoon Eun Hye wearing the Linda bag. Personally, Noona thinks Linda is easier to match with stronger color like black or red. But apparently Linda comes out well when it is paired with white clothes as well. Linda bag looks more professional too, in a way. 

Samantha Thavasa has a lot of stores both inside and outside South Korea. In Seoul, you can find Samantha Thavasa in COEX department store (level B1) and a lot of Lotte Department Stores. For complete location, you can check this complete location of Samantha Thavasa in Seoul.

Where Noona is living (i.e. in Singapore), Samantha Thavasa has stores in ION Orchard and inside Tangs department store in Vivo City. 

Yoona's fashion style

Hello everyone! Has everyone has a good Friday night? Nothing to do? Well, you can always come here to have a good random read about fashion. Noona has been into one of SNSD members, Yoona. Yoona's fashion style is so versatile. She can be so classic and yet trendy. Noona is not the only one who thinks like that. In fact, a lot of fashion industry brands ask Yoona to endorse their products because oh well, she looks amazingly good in everything. Nowadays, we can read about Yoona's fashion style in various magazines and websites. While looking for some styling inspiration from Yoona, Noona's eyes come down to a cute bag from a brand called Lovcat. Which obviously is endorsed by Yoona. Noona guesses this brand is coming from Paris because it sounds Parisian. #simpleguess

What is Lovcat?

Ja~ja~ja...Lovcat Bijoux turns out to be a Korean brand. The brand exudes Parisian vibe because it mixes Anthropology and French-chic concept into its brand concept. From all Yoona's photoshoot, Noona loves this Lovcat bag the most. 

Lovcat Bijoux has its stores at all Lotte Department Stores in South Korea. While there is an avenue of buying the bag online, Noona can't determine for sure if there is delivery to a country outside South Korea because the website is in Korean.

A lot of people asked how did Noona go to Petite France? Well technically, if you want a cheaper travel, you can take the Gapyeong City Tour Bus from Cheongpyeong Station. Gapyeong City Tour Bus is a hop-on-hop-off bus which stops at a lot of tourism spot in Gapyeong. The bus comes at an interval of one hour. But when Noona arrived at Cheongpyeong Station that morning, the bus has just left. Hence, Noona took a cab to Petite France.

Denim jacket does last forever. Since Noona bought her first denim jacket 10 years ago, denim jacket is still a popular fashion item. But, Noona always wear her denim jacket together with long pants. Is that another way to wear a denim jacket. Oh, with a dress? The question is, how to wear a denim jacket with a dress?

Thankfully, in the middle of the confusion, Noona found a pictorial from Roem, a fashion brand in Korea featuring Suzy from Miss A. Roem has come up with new autumn outfit of the day by combining denim jacket and a blue dress. Really what are we looking for, right?

For the footwear, Noona think the combination of denim jacket and dress will work just fine with any footwear from flats to heels. Hope you like the fashion inspiration from Suzy! 

"Swagger: a very confident and arrogant or self-imporatnt gait or manner."

Well, Noona guesses Coach is selling its so-called "Coach Swagger Bag" to show that you can have a very confident personality by...well, carrying the bag. Not sure how true it will be but Victoria's pictorial shoot with Elle does surely show a confident and arrogant manner, in a pretty way. 

If you wander into Uniqlo around this timing, you will surely see a lot of racks full of plaid shirt. The tricky thing with the plaid is that a lot of people wear it and if you don't style the way you wear it, there is a big risk of wearing the same plaid with the same style with other people! Okay, whoa, that's a mouthful. The point is, you don't want to look the same as other people, rite?

So how can we style the plaid look? If you have belts and denim short, well, this style is for you! 

Nothing beats the comfort of a loose sweatshirt. Since autumn has come, this sweatshirt-short-boots combination will be quite fun to wear on the street. Before the weather gets colder and colder.
