Welcoming the New Year

It has been almost a year since I started this blog. I was a bit apprehensive when I first started blogging as I am not a good writer. I dont know how to write interesting reviews on bags and engage readers.  I hope next year I will have more confidence in my writing and perhaps able to write interesting, thought provoking blog and more reviews on bags.

I am glad to have made new friends in this blogging experience and will want to continue to know more people beyond my own circles of friends. Someone told me to be an entrepreneur is crazy. I like that idea of being one, though I am not sure if I will be successful. Next year I will be focusing on trying to bring thedeborahshop to the next level.

I hope to be more creative and bold, to bring in new ideas to improve our service to you. I am toying with the idea like  "Handbags parties". In the 80s, there were Tupperware parties, where the sales person of the Tupperware company is invited to sell Tupperware in your parties. I hope to be invited to parties and bring our handbags to give your parties a new meaning to parties. It will not just be great food and lot of booze , there's also a little shopping spree right at your home.


There are so many things I want and need to do to revamp the whole shop and hope I am able to carry out in 2012 and not forgetting to give you the best bargain in town.
Thank you for your support. :)


Have a great year ahead.

A message to my friends, customers and fans

Another year is almost gone and soon a new year will emerge.

I wish that time can slow down. This year has more downs than ups for me. I have far more enthusiasm in life than I have actual energy. Nevertheless, I have friends to cheer me up, hand me a tissue and help me stand up again. Thanks to all who have been a great help to me.

Thanks to my readers who have been faithfully reading and following my blog. The contents are not as informative, provocative, mind blowing or humourous enough but I am willing to learn along to way if you will continue to provide valuable feedback.

A big thank to my customers. We hope to serve you better in the coming year
While I reflect upon my life this year, I wish I can do better next year, having more equipped with experiences and wisdom.

I wish you all the best for the coming year and stay happy.

Review on 2 Prada Bags

The Prada nylon bags are known for its waterproof quality and certainly come in handy for rainy seasons. I have not seen so much rain in S'pore my entire life, honestly.

BR4001, $860



I like this blue turquoise Prada sling bag, BR4001 for it's unusual colour and big enough to carry my daily items, not forgetting the umbrella and a book in case I get stuck in the MRT. It is causal and yet stylish. It will go well with jeans.  It also comes in black which is the Prada classic colour. Colours do spice up the gloomy days like today.

The other bronzy colour, BN1840 bag is my the other favourite. I like the structured and semi-serious look which is perfect for weekends and office. It is not too small that you can't stuff things in it and not too overwhelming big. It is a right size for minimalist or on days where my shoulders are aching.

Both bags are super light weight so the weight you are lugging is the actual weight of the content.

What about some  matching wallets to go along? I prefer long wallets as I like my notes straight. I have the tendency to stuff receipts into my wallets so I do need a wallets with lots of compartment. Black colour wallets to give the additional mileage ( it wont show if it is dirty).
Prada wallet, $480 onwards
The prices indicated here are only valid for a limited period of time.

No Frills Concept

Someone came to the shop and asked if we like to increase our sales by ranking top for Search Engine/Marketing or to work on a new website....hmmm... This thing do come with a price tag.

Our shop is not fancifully decorated. Our website are done up by a start up web designer company. Pictures of bags are taken by a novice who wants to improve his skills. Everything here is very much DIY.

We are starting out and trying to stinch on all possible expenditure. So we will not pass this cost to our customers. The real competitors are ourselves and not comparing myself with others.

Cheers to all start ups and bloggers who sell their items on blog or shops that are DIY everything.
Tammy, I admire you. You are also your own model for your shop.
