Celestina Nora Aunor clutch

Yes, your eyes did not deceive you. That is the actual name of this clutch I found on Outnet, the sister company of Net a Porter.

The clutch is described as:

Tiger Pen mosaic shell box clutch with ebony wood edged trim. Celestina clutch has a suede lining and comes with a small wood framed signature mirror. Some natural inclusions may be apparent in the smooth finish, which are characteristic of the natural materials used and simply add to the charm of the piece.

Do you think it's fitting tribute to the Philippines' very own Superstar, Nora Aunor? I'm sure most of the international buyers may not be familiar with the significance of the bag's name. If you are interested, the clutch can be purchased here. It's 40% off.

Lanvin Paris Sale in Hong Kong

With the swine flu epidemic, I am as afraid as the next sane person about travelling to a foreign country. Hence, you can understand why this announcement from Butterboom is making me weep. The Lanvin Grand Sale is a 4-day affair from 18-21 June 2009 with up to 90% off on ready-to-wear and accessories.

It's not too late to purchase that ticket and spend a weekend indulging in retail therapy. The Hong Kong sale season has started and it promises to be really good
