I have a love-hate relationship with bags…love because I love bags! Who doesn’t?!? Hate because some of those that I love, I can’t afford! And it happens most of time, I’ll see a bag and I’ll fall in love, only to find out that it’s over $1000. NYAKS! There is no way I will buy a bag THAT expensive…or maybe I will, if I win the lottery, heck! I might even buy the Louis Vuitton Tribute Patchwork Bag (which they say is one of the most expensive bag in the world>> PhP 1M++!!)
I am not bag brand conscious, I even buy bags from thrift store. In fact 50% of my bags are from thrift stores (bags for less than $10). If I love the style of the bag, I usually go for it, price considered of course 🙂 The most expensive bag I bought is around $150, the first one was a hobo bag from Nine West (original price is $200) and the other one is a Coach Satchel (original price is $300+ >>no way! haha)..and that was a long time ago (hmm like January haha).. I think I need a new bag, hey I deserved a new bag!
And because SUMMER is already here, I found some nice bags perfect for summer (if I only I can afford two or three of these lovelies!) First from my list:
I love anything canvas.. but the price of this bag is not something I love haha
This one is more affordable and perfect for overnight getaways! It can also serve as a beach bag, perfect for large families like mine.. you know, 4 sets of clothes, 4 towels and so on, and so on!
A bit pricey for a clutch, but this one is perfect for maxi dresses.. flowing..flowing…
ALDO bags are really cheap no?
Quite colorful for my taste, but this one looks very functional for summer.
Last but not the least..though this one does not have a bright vibe to it, I included it on my summer bag wishlist because I want it.. as simple as that 🙂
Quirk design! I love it.. and of course the color (and the price too!) if only ALDO ships here in my country, I will buy two!
Soo.. what do you think of my summer bag wishlist?

April 3, 2014 at 9:02 pmI want the ALDO Derolain I love that color and the design is beautiful!
Mommy Pehpot says
April 3, 2014 at 9:28 pmyes and look at the details! LOVE!
Terri | Sugar Free Glow says
April 3, 2014 at 9:18 pmBags are my downfall for sure. They are all cute and affordable–makes me want to go bag shopping now!
Mommy Pehpot says
April 3, 2014 at 9:27 pmcan I join? hahaha
Anna says
April 3, 2014 at 11:46 pmOooo those bags are so cute!! Definitely screams summer and I love them!
Jennifer B. says
April 4, 2014 at 1:25 amOh girl, you are totally speaking to the choir with this post, lol. I love, love, love handbags, but I am careful with money (except when it comes to Apple products because they just sucker me in every single TIME!), and I can’t always justify the cost. Love the Coach option, but I’m loving the Nine West one the most!
Mommy Pehpot says
April 4, 2014 at 9:30 pmhahaha so you love Apple products! I can’t say much with that, but I am usually all out when it comes to my kids’ toys and clothing 🙂

Mommy Pehpot says

Kimberly says
April 4, 2014 at 11:28 amI want 1, 2 and 4. They are just too cute for this time of year. And like you have the same feelings towards bags. I love them but can never afford them but sometimes the best ones are the cheaper ones that you find in the oddest of places 🙂
Mommy Pehpot says
April 4, 2014 at 8:55 pmI love going to thrift stores and look for stylish and super cheap bads 🙂
Eva says
April 4, 2014 at 2:55 pmGood day, I love bag’s also.But i don’t buy bags that too much expensive (cause i don’t have much money for that, LOL 🙂 Well all i can is if you have money to buy expensive bags then go for it, if that makes you happy. And for those who have very tight budget, you should buy bags that you think looks good/and makes you feel good but affordable.” sabi nga ng iba nasa pagdadala lang yan :)) :)) :))
Mommy Pehpot says
April 4, 2014 at 8:45 pmtrue ka jan! I have ukay bags no.. mga 200-300 lang each haha pero hindi halata 🙂
Pearl Paguio says
April 4, 2014 at 6:28 pmI love the Aldo Bismarck, because my bag is also my 3 kids bags hehe..Spacious bag is a must talaga when you’re a mom 🙂
Mommy Pehpot says
April 4, 2014 at 8:41 pmay you have 3 kids! so relate ka din di ba? kulang na lang buong aparador, pagkasyahin mo sa bag haha
Jennifer says
April 4, 2014 at 7:58 pmI have to be honest, I’ve never been big on bags. I’ll never understand people spending oodles of money on a specific purse because it has a Coach label! Then again, some of those bags are pretty cute. Everyone has their own obsession. 😉
Mommy Pehpot says
April 4, 2014 at 8:31 pmfor me, it really depends on the style, I don’t mind if it comes from a thrift store or no label at all, as long as I love the style and I can afford it, I’ll go for it 🙂
cococute says
April 4, 2014 at 8:50 pmI know that Bags are another Woman’s best friend it is because my Mom is always happy whenever we gift her a new bag, I hope you can buy or receive as gifts all of your bag wishlist. I think the second and fifth one are great and perfect for a colorful summer.
Mommy Pehpot says
April 4, 2014 at 9:09 pmaww that’s so sweet of you cococute!
elisa andren says
April 4, 2014 at 9:42 pmI love the color and details of Aldo’s bag..love it!
Jessica says
April 4, 2014 at 9:46 pmI think my favorite has to be the ALDO Derolain one. Love the color and the print. Now you have me thinking I want a new bag for spring. I need to color stuff up (thinking as it is snowing again here in MN!)
sherry ann gole cruz says

Istin Dizon Paigna says
April 5, 2014 at 9:32 pmI like the Coach Avery Canvas Drawstring, ALDO Derolain and ALDO Sepvlieda. How I wish I have lots of money to splurge on bags. There are so many bags to love… *sigh*
Rebel Sweetheart says
April 5, 2014 at 10:54 pmThat Derolain bag, I like! 🙂 Love the choices you posted here, Mommy Pehpot! 🙂
Patricia Rances says

Astra C. Alegre says
April 6, 2014 at 2:11 amI love bags but just like you sometimes I get shocked when I look at the prices 🙁
It’s free to dream though ( :
Patricia Rances says

Mommy Pehpot says

Pam Rote says

mommynuts says
April 6, 2014 at 9:15 pmI love ALDO Bismarck from the list above. I can imagine it wearing jeans and shirt. Perfect for weekend getaway and the price is just right.
Mommy Pehpot says
April 7, 2014 at 8:13 amtrue!
Tetcha Figuerres says
April 6, 2014 at 11:09 pmI love that Nine West bag with stripes, so colorful, perfect for summer!
Teresa Martinez says
April 7, 2014 at 8:58 amWhat beautiful bags! I don’t buy much bags because I tend to “love my bags to bits”. My mother is the certified bag lover so I just wait for her to use her bag once or twice and it usually goes my way.
Mommy Peach says
April 7, 2014 at 11:27 amType ko yung Nine West Prep It Up Multi Stripe Tote. Hala! mukhang gusto ko din bumili ng bag.
Mommy Pehpot says
April 7, 2014 at 7:56 pmbibili na yan! bibili na yan!
Peachy @ The Wandering Peach says
April 13, 2014 at 7:53 pmSandali, hahanap muna ako ng DA para may budget.
Annalyn Villegas says

aiko borja says
April 8, 2014 at 1:41 ami love the ALDO bags!!! grabe ang ganda ng mga designs wish to have them din kaya lang di pa afford hehehhe .
Ryche says
April 8, 2014 at 7:13 amHi Mommy Pehpot! If you can just see how much I’m gushing right now, you’d laugh at me! I go crazy for bags like these. I love the Nine West clutch and bag, very chic-looking and bagay for the summer. The colors are super cool and eye-catching. The great thing about designer bags kasi is the quality, it can last for almost forever. I think you deserve a new bag!
Mary Anne Tapang says
April 8, 2014 at 8:21 amI love your summer bag wishlist especially the first one, Coach Avery Canvas Drawstring I just can’t afford it though.
Patty | MrsC says
April 8, 2014 at 2:54 pmI want both Aldo bags! In fairness, they aren’t expensive naman. I am also a bag love but I can be kuripot, so I’ve never been able to bring myself to spend more than 8k on a bag. Pang pangarap nalang ang mga LV at Chanel sakin.
Mommy Pehpot says
April 27, 2014 at 7:48 pmI am not an LV fan, pero pangarap din ang mga ganyang presyong bag hahaha
Ronita Dela Rosa says
April 8, 2014 at 4:33 pmALDO Sepvlieda very nice..I wish I can buy that huhuhu
Arminda Puno De Leon says
April 10, 2014 at 9:04 amYes beautiful bags indeed! I love the Coach avery!
Marinela Diaz says
April 10, 2014 at 10:17 amThe 3rd bag is perfect for summer, especially if you’re going to the beach. I would pair this with a maxi dress, and I’ll sit under a shady tree while sipping mango shake. Haha! Nag-imagine talaga!
Mommy Pehpot says
April 10, 2014 at 9:19 pmpenge ng mango shake! haha
Chinky Magtibay says
April 11, 2014 at 7:09 pmGo na and buy a bag…..:)

Janice says
April 12, 2014 at 10:30 amI have a love-hate relationship with bags too. I SO understand how you feel. 🙂 You got a nice selection here. Love the pink one from Aldo!
Sam says
April 14, 2014 at 2:42 pmFancy bags! Beautiful! although my own summer bag is more of North Face or a gym one good for some summer trips, hiking and sports leagues :))
May De Jesus-Palacpac says
April 14, 2014 at 6:28 pmLove 2, 3, 4 and 5! I’m not a bag person but I’m learning to be one. 🙂
Camille Aguila says
April 14, 2014 at 6:54 pmAww. I think I need a new one too! I never bought any of that amount too ($100+) because I seldom go out of the house. Plus the fact that it can buy me a whole outfit. I’d go for most department store brands and if lucky enough, I hope my husband will buy me one someday with a whooping price tag. LOL. I bet I’ll disagree with that too. I’d rather buy something for my camera instead. haha
thereyoujho says
April 21, 2014 at 8:42 pmI love the Nine West bag as well,. I think ALDO has a great selection and some of their bags are affordable. We just need to save up for quality bags!:)
Cai says
April 22, 2014 at 2:04 pmI like the Nine West one with wallet, it can double as a baby bag!
Ann C says
May 16, 2014 at 2:49 pmI love the white bag,simple but sophisticated one!
