So I have a passionate love affair with gold and metals. Had the iPhone for almost a month now and was trying to figure out exactly what kind of case would be the perfect one for me. It had to be neutral, fit well, not bulky, not one I'd want to switch or change often and had to be affordable as well. I've never been a fan of prints, patterns, colours or much else when it comes to accessories. SO after some much thought and consideration, I finally decided that brushed metal would be IT. Found one online for about $50 (too steep for me) but debated on buying it right away (as I'm known to do) until I found one for a lot less. Came across these babies on eBay for about $7 total for both! The only things that bug me are the tendency to pick up fingerprints and such (on all surfaces except the padded interior) but it does hold securely (can hardly get it off my phones!). It also only covers the side as it's not a flexible material so I suppose I'll have to put up with it. They do look gorgeous, if I do say so myself. Hehe. And the added bonus is that they look expensive. But posh. :)
The Ivanka Trump bag is a lovely bag I spotted during a recent shopping excursion at The Bay. I always do love their handbag selections and saw that the Ivanka Trump collection offers some really nice, classy handbags and evening bags. The black bag with gold hardware would be about ....the fifth or six black and gold bag in my collection (yes, probably could be referred to as an obsession). I don't care what brand it is as long as it's a good quality bag so I'm glad that the designer came out with this. Plus I love classic glamour! It's at the right price point as I thought it would be great for my everyday bag. It's the right size, has a zippered top opening (hate flaps) and includes a nice front pocket. I would love a strong single handle/strap but this works. I just love it and can't wait to wear it out! The only thing I don't like is the interior. It has this Ivanka Trump logo just monogrammed on a gold fabric lining with a red Ivanka Trump metal plaque...the overall look of it reminds me of Baby Phat. Not fond of that but whatever. Going to wear the crap out of this bag. Lol.
