Purse Review!!!

Purse Review!!! <3

So I found a purse recently in one of my most favorite discount stores in my area called gen x! 

This sexy purse right here! lol

Btw, can we take a moment to appreciate my photography skills as of late.lol I'm slowly getting better at this whole picture taking thing. Anyways, I saw this purse on the purse table and it caught my eye right away!  One because it's stunning. But two because its a play on the famous Chanel boy bag.

Looks like this.

The Chanel boy bag is very cute.. but not 5,000 dollars cute lol.  Thats what I saw it going for on ebay.  And that was ebay.. but that price sounds about right.

So this purse is pretty much an exact replica as you can see AND also cruelty free which makes it so much better already.  So I thought, I must get this before it disappears in the abyss that is the shopping world never to return again. lol  Im being a little dramatic but its true! You let it wait and then its gone! Just like that. 

So more about this little beautiful find.

The interior is RED which I love! Here's a little peak inside.

  It has a super classy/chic look and I love the gold hardware on this bag.  Gold and black always go good together.

I also love the hard and structured feel of this purse so much. I love a structured purse! How it looks is how it feels.I also like that it is like a cross body if you want it to be so it's like a hands free care free purse.

And I just looove the chain on this! It's super pretty and jingly when you pick it up. I kind of like a strap like this too.  Not for an everyday thing but it's really nice for like an occasion thing.

And  I think the best thing I like about this bag is that it replicates a name brand bag but not in a tacky way.

  Like for example, they didn't try to create an emblem that looks like the Chanel logo but when you get close you realize its something else lol. It's just a gold hardware piece of it's own with a twisty closure. 

The downside is not much can fit in it because its very tiny. =\  It's like a clutch really.  But I think fashion outweigh function for this one.  You can just use it for going out and doing small things where you dont need to carry much.  I used it as a dinner clutch and it was perfect! =)

What's very strange is this purse doesn't have a name... lol I thought that was so bizzare. No name to be found so it was impossible to track down online. I was really trying to hunt this down like crazy to find out more info about it but literally nothing.  So I guess if anyone is interested you might wanna try and catch it at gen x or similar stores such as maybe a tj max or something along those lines. =(  I always like to leave at least some kind of reference link or something for those that might be interested but I had no luck =/. ugh

But loooove this purse!  I give this purse like 10 hearts! lol Just cus it's that cute!

Brunch at The IVY!

Bday Brunch at The IVY! ^_^

So for one of my birthday plans this year, I decided I wanted to have a small bday brunch with my mom at the IVY! 

The IVY for those who don't know is a super popular high end chic restaurant on Robertson in Beverly Hills!  Celebs go there and it's just a very cute and quaint spot that you can brunch or lunch at lol.

I thought it would be fun to blog my experience and kind of do a mini restaurant review on my blog at the same time! =)

This was my first time coming here and I've been wanting to come to this place for awhile so this was definitely something I was looking forward too!  

So the first thing you should know about this place is that it is reservation only.  I'm so glad I happen to call in advance because I had no idea. And when I asked the guy on the phone about reservations, he was like "uh. yea.. you need a reservation."  Like that's a given! lol  Oops. lol.  Didn't know!  So I made a reservation for brunch at 2 o clock.

But ok, on to the fun part!  When you first walk in, there's complimentary champagne! ^_^  

You walk into this little champagne room area and grab your champagne and then you are seated.

Here's a pic of our champagne! =)

And this was some quality champagne!  Like one sip had you floating pretty much lol.

And then we went on to ordering our meal.

I went ahead and got the lemon chicken mixed greens salad as shown above.(By the way, this salad was like the BEST salad I ever had.  I promise. It was so freaking good!) My mom ended up going with the same and we also got matching drinks!  There's a specialty drinks list here and we got the mojitos which were amaazing! The pellegrino was complimentary too.

Afterwards, they give you a little box of cookies from the Dolce bakery on Robertson like a little gift. =) 
Looks like this

The one thing I'd say is be prepared for how small and close together everything is.  Especially inside.  I'd choose a corner table so that you have more room and more of your own space.  But I'd choose inside over outside any day.  Each table is garnished with fresh roses too which I thought was so beautiful! ..  But deff bee attracting lol.  So uh. yeah!  Inside is the way to go I think.  The roses are more fresh outside on the patio area and the patio area is kind of really cute like a little garden but I'm just an inside girl. Plus, outside you have to deal with insects (which I saw people dealing with) and other outside elements but the possible bee situation alone was enough to want to sit inside lol! sorry!

And that's my experience at the Ivy! I loooved it and will definitely go again! I recommend this place and give it 5 hearts! 

xoxo T

Happy Tuesday! =)
