as some PFers might know, my mulberry bayswater and its contents were stolen from me last night. fortunately the security guards at the mall managed to find my bayswater in a disused stairwell but everything in it - my wallet, ipod, cellphone, watch and even my cosmetics (!) - were taken by the thief. other than the trauma of having had my bag (which i had placed right beside me, on the floor though) stolen from right under my nose, i was just thankful that it wasn't my first prada bag that was stolen!
just a couple of hours before the theft, i was in the prada store trying my luck in finding a bag that was from seasons past. surprisingly, the SA i spoke to knew exactly what i was talking about, smiled at me and disappeared into the stockroom. a couple of minutes and several skips of the heart later, he came back with THE EXACT BAG I WAS LOOKING FOR! my day couldn't have been better and of course i left the store toting a large paper bag with my virgin prada.
i had originally intended to transfer the contents of my mulberry into the new prada but i was running late for classes and left my new purchase with my mom instead. who would have thought that had there been ample time and if i really had gone ahead with transferring the contents and using the prada bag instead, i reckon i wouldn't be making this post right now because the thief would probably have made off with the prada!
so i'm counting my blessings for now and on hindsight, i guess scoring a new prada and something which doesn't come by in the stores so often does alleviate the pain of having had my things stolen.
as a sidenote, is it the norm for boxes to not be included? or should i be marching back up to the SA and asking for a box to go with my new baby?
here's my new precious virgin prada!
