Hi Purseholic
I have recently been promoted and would like to reward myself with a nice designer bag. My budget is not more than SGD3000. I prefer something made of leather than other materials such as canvas and I do not like trendy bags, preferring something more conservative. Would you be able to recommend something worth [...]
Hello Purseholic
I am a 30-year old corporate lawyer in Hong Kong and a purseholic. I have been dreaming of owning an Hermes Birkin bag ever since I bought my first designer bag with my first pay cheque (it was a Gucci). Since I have been a good repeat customer to the Hermes store in Central, [...]
Hi Purseholic
I am buying a gift for my wife’s 37th birthday. We have been married for 12 years now and I am looking for something rather expensive and special. I am torn between a watch and a handbag. My wife wears a Seiko watch which I bought for her 5 years ago. She also owns [...]

I need to buy a bag for a woman in her late 40s who is a client and I don’t know what bag will impress her. My budget is around $2000-$3000 and I would like to buy something special from a big brand that suits a classy woman.

Hi Purseholic
Just curious, what are the bags on your wish list now?
Jay, Singapore
Hi Jay
I don’t wish to burst your bubble but honestly there is not any one bag high on my wish list for now. Blame it to the designers who, in my opinion, have been slacking on the man bag department lately. For the [...]

Dear Purseholic
I plan to get my mom a nice handbag as a Valentine’s gift this year. The thing is my mom is never much into designers such as Louis Vuitton and Fendi and more to old Nina Ricci and Hermes. I can’t afford any Hermes now and Nina Ricci bags now are different from the [...]
Hi Purseholic
SAs in Louis Vuitton stores always tell me that it is worth buying their limited edition bags as the value goes high after being discontinued. What do you think? I own many classic Monogram and Damier Canvas pieces and still love them much but I am thinking of getting one Louis most people do [...]
Hi Purseholic
I am a big fan of designer bags but I have turned Vegan for over a year and tried to avoid buying leather goods as well, including beautiful leather bags. I can see that you are a big fan of full leather goods yourself, the more the better. I have no judgement or qualms towards [...]
Dear Purseholic
Is Hermes Picotin bag worth buying? With the price I could get a more elaborated bag from another designer.
Jessica in Singapore
Hi Jessica
The thing about Hermes bags is that its price is almost never justifiable for just a bag. I am going to give you the same advice as I have always given when it [...]
Hi Purseholic
I am a purseholic myself and i really really love your blog. I have been saving up for 2 years to get my very first self-purchased designer bag and i am a big fan of Gucci. Could you recommend a shoulder bag (I am a shoulder bag gal) which i could use for work [...]
