Luuux.com

It is real? Is it a scam? Can you really get "free" designer handbags and an iPad?!


My friends, for now I am going to say: yes, it is real. It has been confirmed by many Youtubers that they have ordered Louis Vuitton bags, and have arrived safely and authentic.

I've just started using Luuux.com, and let me tell you: earning points is NOT as easy as it seems. You would have to be on there 24/7 to earn enough points for something nice. Is it better than spending the real money to buy it? Hell yes. The only thing I am not loving about Luuux right now is that all the pages load veryyyy slooooowly, most likely because SO many people are on there.

If you do create an account, add me! Just search for 'thatswhatcindysaid' (=

Cutest wallet! on trip to Loehmann's

I was pleasantly surprised to stumble upon (literally) the cutest wallet ever at Loehmann's yesterday!
 Co-Lab by Christopher Kon. Two-Tone Wallet.
  • Faux leather shell with purple nylon lining.
  • Gold-toned hardware.
  • Snapped closure.
  • Three cash pockets with eight credit card slots.
  • Zipped pocket with three compartments.
  • Wallet measures 7.25" wide by 4.5" tall.
I actually hate the picture a lot because it makes the wallet look stiff and weird, but in reality, this is the flimsiest wallet I've ever seen- in a good way. It's not soft, it's just... loose and squishy. This is a checkbook wallet, which I like because it makes my paper money flat and un-wrinkly. If you follow my blog you probably know that I LOVE zippers (and bows and cute/weird prints). I also like that the coin compartment is on the outside of the wallet, so I don't have to unbutton the actual wallet (and take the risk of losing some bills or having people see my library card picture!) to get out some pennies. And the best part about this? It was the LAST one at Loehmann's!! It was hidden under a bunch of Kenneth Cole wallets, AND it had no price tag! After they searched it up in the system for me, I was pleased to hear that it was 60% off (and I have a Loehmann's Gold Membership, so I get an extra 10% off). So, in total I payed around $6.50 for it!

In addition, I bought a Kenneth Cole Reaction Fit N Flare Hobo Bag at Loehmann's.



materials:
  • Nylon and synthetic
  • Logoed lining
measurements:
  • 10" high
  • 14.5" wide
  • 5.5" deep
  • 9.5" shoulder drop
item details:
  • Zipper closure
(details from endless.com)

To be honest, I'm not sure if I like it. I think the part I like most is that it was originally $79 and I bought it for $18. The material is a bit annoying though. It looks shiny and plastic-y, just like a black plastic bag. However, if it were convenient, I wouldn't mind so much. For school use, I wish the opening was bigger so that I can put in books and such more efficiently. I can fit a couple of books and notebooks, but I know that during the course of the school year, random stuff will have to start going into my bag, and then it'll get messy. Plus, I like to keep a light jacket with me, in case I get chills during class. If I put a jacket in this bag, I probably won't have much room for anything else. Furthermore, prefer cross-body bags over shoulder bags because it distributes the weight better, with all those books. However, I would probably carry my heavy books and binders anyway because I don't like having them weigh me down, so carrying some stuff isn't a problem for me.

Let me know what you think of it!

Going to try something else..

So the last post got a little long...

so instead of posting all the bags I like in one big gigantic list that takes forever to read (and forever X10 to edit), I'll just put up individual posts whenever I see a bag I like ^^. To view all the bag-related posts, just go to the LABELS section on the right hand side and click "bags".

Cindy's Big Bag Wishlist

I know school isn't going to start until September, but I am bored at the library and decided to look for a new bag/ backpack for the fall. (= Of course I could never afford most of these, but here are some bags I think are cuuuute and would VERY much appreciate getting as a gift! *wink wink* So I guess this is more like my wish list of big bags.

CINDY'S BIG BAG WISHLIST  
(get it? like Big Bad, but Big Bag?! Ahahahahahha)
(In NO order):

Brogue Houndstooth Day Fluffy Velour Tote by Juicy Couture


This bag hasn't even come out yet! Until August 17th, you have to pre-order it. I like the black and white one, also known as "Angel White Multi". Tres cute!! It's $198 on the Juicy website, and $228 on Bloomingdale's?? O.o


Juicy Couture Small Coastal Sparrow Tote

PRICE: $148.00 on Bloomingdales.com
I like just about anything with birds printed on it. This Juicy tote just so happens to be purple (my favorite color, in case you didn't know), AND have vertical stripes! (I also like vertical stripes, in case you couldn't tell by both my blog templates.) I think any kind of tote is appropriate for school. The only think I don't like about this one is the color of the "handles". The dark-ish brown doesn't really match.

 

 

MARC BY MARC JACOBS Miss Marc Gingham Shopper Tote

PRICE: $148.00 on Bloomingdales.com

This tote is so nerdy-cute, just like me! I love it! Good for school-use because it has additional pockets for cell phone and stuff. Made with canvas! (=

MARC BY MARC JACOBS Classic Q Drawstring Leather Tote

PRICE: $528.00 on Bloomingdales.com

The drawstring and the long belt-like strap make it easy to carry around at school. It's also always nice to have the option of using a strap or carrying your bag on your shoulder.

Juicy Couture Gen Y Exquisite Mess Canvas Bow Tote

PRICE: $78.00 on Bloomingdales.com
I like the front. It's no secret that I adore bows.  I like the feather design thing. BUT THE BACK IS SO UGLY!! I hate shiny cheap-looking writing. ughhh totally ruins this bag. But since it's only $78 (well, cheap compared to the other bags!), I would just buy a piece of fabric and sew it on the back to cover it. 








LeSportsac EveryGirl Tote in Vaudeville


OMG OMG OMG. THIS HAS TO BE THE CUTEST TOTE EVER!!! I HAVE TO GET THIS. Donations are appreciated (= just kidding! Once I start making money (hopefully very soon) I'M GONNA BUY THIS!! I like the pastel colors and CUTE rabbit and cat print.

Ooh!! there are so many different styles from the Vaudeville collection:




Alexander Wang Donna Leather Hobo

$795 on Saks
I like the split zipper in front! I would buy the black one, but I posted a picture of the "Mocha" -colored bag just so I have more colors in the blog post. Perfect size for school!

  

Salvatore Ferragamo Ms. Vara Bow Tote

$890 on Saks.
BOW <3



Valentino Denim Medium Nuage (Exclusively at Saks)

$895. The color and texture are pretty! Although it is hard to tell from the front view, it has a big bow on the side.



...Still a little hard to tell )=

 



L.A.M.B. Celendine Leather Zip Tote

Nothing too special; the front pockets look very convenient.






$398.00 on Saks.









Nothing too special; the front pockets look very convenient.
