Monsoon Ready

Now that we, here in Mumbai, experienced a few mild showers I figured it's time to prepare for the horrible season in which you can't wear socks, use leather or wear white. Because the rain hates us.

I have MANY leather bags which are bound to get spoilt due to the humidity, if you have leather jackets or bags make sure to keep them in a plastic bag, sealed, and in a dry place.

 Things to buy:
1. Waterproof bag
2. Umbrella
3. Raincoat
4. Monsoon footwear
5. Pocket Tissue

Umbrella: Forever New, Jellies Footwear: Forever 21, Pocket Tissue: dad's

Dubai Haul: BAGS

So as  I mentioned in my earlier post my exams are finally over so now I have more time to blog!
So I figured why not post about the stuff I picked up from Dubai...
I picked a lot of stuff I actually needed to complete my wardrobe but I did not pick just random stuff and waste money....I shopped smart.

Click the link to see the product on the online store.
So here are the bags I picked, their brands and prices:

First I'd like to start with the smallest one. It's a wallet from Call It Spring. I actually stepped into the store to buy a pair of heels but this wallet just grabbed my eye so bad! It's got the sailor-anchor essence with the blue and white stripes and it just has soooo many compartments!
You can keep 10 cards, change, cash and it has a back zipper too!
Cost: Dhs: 79, Inr: 1,343
Call It Spring India Store Locator



Next is a Cross Body Bag / Sling from Bershka. I didn't pick up clothes from Bershka because I knew I'd get pretty much the same collection in Zara back home. Bershka is from the same retailer as Zara.
It has a magnetic button lock and pretty spacious inside, a small zipper inside too. Love For Pastel!
 So moving on to the price : Dhs: 75, Inr: 1,275 (they're selling it for 40 something now wtf.)
I don't think they have an Indian store but they do sell online on snapdeal and places...



Next is an actual handbag. I'm not a handbag person so I decided to buy this for my mom who denied to buy it given she already has so many but I insisted and now we both will share it. It's from: New Look ( I couldn't find this product on the store :( but they do have the amazing products!)
It's such a spacious bag:  Loads of space, Phone holder, zipper inside and outside...It's just bliss <3
 Cost: Dhs 145, Inr: 2,465



 ( It can be made into a cross-body-bag too! yay!)

Now that we are talking about New Look Products I bought another bag for myself from there! It's a small aztec Back-Pack! With fringe! Can you believe it? All trends in one little bag! I'm so in love with it right now! It's pretty spacious for it's size and it has zippers and a magnetic button!
I again couldn't find it on the store :( but do check out the link!
Cost: Dhs 75, Inr: 1,275




Lastly I picked this completely Black Fringe Bag from H&M! It's just amazing as a handbag and cross-body bag...My best buy! Spacious again..I just love these bags!
Cost: Dhs: 129, Inr: 2,193



I picked one other bag from Global Village ( an exhibit mentioned in my older post) It's unbranded but it's just very very pretty...it's a black bag with gold detail. It's actually completely my mother's bag :P so I didn't mention it here but it's big enough to fit in my laptop so I would use it at times!

I hope this has been helpful...bookmark my blog or put my posts into your reading lists to refer back to when you go shopping.
My main tip for all bag-shoppers is to pick spacious bags with zipper-locks. Do not pick open bags and risk pick-pocketing. Buy neutral colours if you have a varied wardrobe or else pick colours you know would go along with everything...

Wishlist: Yellow Push Lock Satchel  New Look
Never can have enough bags...
