my marc by marc jacobs handbag

I told you I was in a shopping splurge during this last trip in Singapore. I needed some personal space it was a little shopping before heading down for a couple of meetings yesterday. Lo and behold, Marc by Marc Jacobs was having a 50% sale – woohoo!

I picked up a capri pants and a casual jacket going at 50% sale and standing at the cashier counter, a nice looking leather bag caught my eyes! It was a Teri Tote in the softest calf leather and I loved the shape and elegance of it. It was disappointing that the bag was not on sale as it was a new arrival. With lots of space in the 2 patch pockets at the front and 2 other interior pockets, this bag is versatile and stylish.

I came back and did an online search and found it in shopbop.com and was I shocked to notice a huge price difference (S$200), if only I do my research first! Even with S$80 UPS shipping included, I could still save some money for a nice meal in a restaurant. This goes to show that US online stores are cool places to shop and compare prices. I have to be more savvy next time I would have gone for the red if I bought it at Shopbop.com too.
