Aight, so it started as kinda a joke, me posting on here, but here is an honest question.
THis summer while in Tokyo I offered to buy my fiance a new bag (along with the nice ring I brought with me to make her my fiance). She thought about buying something like a coach or LV bag but she decided she didnt want something that most every other girl had. I found a Hermes bag that was rather reasonable and I thought looked good, but it didnt do it for her. While in Osaka we were shopping in some little mall by the Hep5 building and she saw a Samantha Vega store (on our way to Anna Sui). After browsing around there she decided that was the brand she wanted to go with. Not ubiquitous in design (like monogram stuff, yawn), moderately priced, and fairly popular but not too popular. She couldnt decide on which color and size she wanted so I told her we could just get it back in Tokyo after she did a little more looking around. On a shopping trip in Ueno I gave her a few 10,000JPY bills to put toward which one she wanted. She settled on a medium sized Samantha Vega heart quilted design bag (IIRC it was black... or white the hearts kinda stuck out like they were quilted together). She loves it the last time I checked.
Does anyone else have any experiences with this brand? Good/Bad? I know nothing about women brands. I was thinking of ordering her a wallet to match the purse, what do you think?
