MISS November 2010 X Coach Furoshiki Scarf

P/S: My post draft was wiped off as my internet line was disconnected 🙁 So I have to re-compose.

FINALLY! I got my reservation issue of MISS November 2010 issue comes with Coach furoshiki scarf brand item. This magazine is selling at RM51.75. Furoshiki is the cloth used to wrap bento boxes. Comes in 2 design with limited copies so it’s just the matter of luck which design you get. But I guess any design will do as it’s still Coach. When I went over Kinokuniya on 29th Sept to check on magazine shipment arrival, I was told that the 1st shipment will only arrive late evening of 30th Sept. But its only 2 copies. I was like huh? Just 2 copies? How is that going to be? What if 20 people makes their reservation? Who will get the 2 copies then? Poor lady was in confusion too. I did expect the low stock which is why I decided to make reservation just in case but I didn’t expect 2 copies. As far as I know, me and SaltVinegar placed our reservation. Could it be the 2 copies is ours? I was mumbling and mumbling to mummy for days and she said “maybe the copies is for you both. Maybe no one make reservation?” Hahaha…maybe =)

Too bad the other magazine title was not arrived yet otherwise I could have bought them together. I couldn’t believe that I actually have the magazine. Even when I was holding it. Even till now. Think about it. There’s only 2 copies in Malaysia and I am the 1st to have it in Malaysia! 

I reserve the pleasure of opening the magazine and surprise till I reach home. I was talking to mummy in the kitchen while opening the magazine. I poke an opening line along the shrink wrap at the bottom of the magazine and stuck my fingers in to reach for the brand item. Then I screamed and give mummy one hell of a shock. It’s the design I wanted!

Picture sharing time 🙂

The magazine & brand item which is a special collaboration for MISS 22nd Anniversary.

After you removed the clear plastic, there’s a window-cardboard cover. Even the cardboard is alluring…

The cardboard back cover.

After removing the cardboard, there’s a milk white plastic with clear window wrapper for the scarf.

The furoshiki is huge. Measuring at 70cmx70cm, it’s not filmsy and made from polyester. The print is on 1 side only.

Coach logo print on the bottom right of the scarf.

MISS logo print on the bottom left of the scarf.

The care tag. Yea I know. Its made in China. Just like other Coach products.

Brand item blurp on magazine front cover. Japanese magazine blurp is always so tempting!

Here’s the magazine scan of the brand item.

The 2 designs of furoshiki available.

Instruction on how to wrap your bento box & bottle.

The picture that totally changed my decision on the design I wanted. Tie it to your bag.

Or make it as a stylish head band!

I totally love this brand item as I’m a Coach freak and collecting Coach brand item is just the right thing to do considering the price compare with the ones in store. Looking forward for more Coach related brand item.

MISS X Coach November 2010


Placed a reservation on MISS November 2010 issue cause it comes with a Coach scarf! I’m a Coach lover & collector and this is a “must-get” item. I was afraid Kino KLCC didn’t bring in a lot of this magazine as this is not “hot” magazine so I decided to book it in advance.

Coach Poppy Clear Cosmetic Bag

I received my order of Coach Poppy Clear Cosmetic Bag c/w gold charm from a seller in Singapore on Friday. It doesn’t come with the “With” August 2010 magazine as she said it’s expensive to import in?? Weird. It doesn’t even cost much if getting the magazine in Malaysia.

Oh well…Here’s how the pouch looks like.

The box front cover (seller didn’t include the brown protective hard box in so this is folded flat)

The box back cover

The pouch itself

Looks blurry huh. That’s because the front & back print is on each other so what you see is a blur picture!

The gold charm. I actually thought this would be plastic but I was wrong. Its metal and its quite heavy.

Share with you “With” August 2010 issue magazine cover.

Oh yea. The cute girl’s name is Goldy Chan LOL

Simple adorable.

Japanese Magazine LeSportsac Mook Review: Magazine Tsumori Chisato

Japanese e-MOOK

e-Mook in another word magazine + book or fashion magazine plus freebies or the japanese would prefer it to be called “brand item”. This is how japanese magazine is sold nowadays. Without this “brand item”, the sales dropped badly. Most of the brand item supplemented in japanese magazine are branded like Agnes. B, Cher, Anna Sui, Coach, Tsumori Chisato and many more.
I must be the last person on earth to find out about this a month ago *slap forehead*. I first started to find out about this when I do my usual checking on “Coach” in eBay Malaysia. Normally when I type the word Coach and all the items will popped out. On this unusual day, I saw something rather different. Its Coach Poppy clear cosmetic bag from August 2010 “With” magazine. Then I started googling and boy I was swept off my feet! Not by a guy but by all this!
I made my way to Kinokuniya KLCC during my lunch time on Tuesday and I was disappointed as I didn’t found what I wanted but after a few browsing, I decided to buy Tsumori Chisato 2010-11 Autumn & Winter Collection 20th Anniversary mook which comes with “special tote bag”. The mook is selling at RM66.70 and 20% discount is applicable if you purchase another item at any value on the same day and receipt. Then I saw the LeSportsac 2010 Spring & Summer mook which is still available! The mook is selling at RM66.70 as well and it’s without 20% PWP discount. But I need to reconsider. I just returned to my ex-company and I’m still earning just plain basic which is barely enough. To make things worse…my car insurance, road tax, car service, medical card is all due on the same week of the same month =( I was struggling with the angel and devil of myself and I decided not to buy anything. I was happy and proud of myself with the decision as I walked out of the shop. Of course I couldn’t stop thinking of mook. With the extra day off of holiday, I told mum that I wanted to go KLCC to buy the mook I wanted. If its still available, means its fated to be mine. To my suprise, Tsumori Chisato and LeSportsac is still available! I wasn’t suprise Tsumori Chisato is still available….I was more suprise at LeSportsac which is still available. Its barely touched at all since Tuesday which other mook is all sold out especially the Loewe tote.
Well, here’s my first mook purchase 🙂
The tote was badly sewn and the worse is there’s a hole poked at the zipper and the zipper was in bad shape. So I returned to Kinokuniya and got an exchange. I suspect they gave me the one displayed instead of opening a new one and the CS denied it. I kept quiet as the replacement was way better than the one I bought.

The tote features



I actually thought I’d be more satisfied with the lovely tote due to the reviews from other blogs compare with LeSportsac but I was actually happy with my LeSportsac pouch. The workmanship was superb and worth the price which is just a fraction from the store.

Comes in 3 different design; 35th Avenue, Robin Egg Dot & Black Glitter

35th Avenue


Robin Egg Dot


Black Glitter

And of course being the girly girl me, I bought Robin Egg Dot.




Can be a sling bag as well!

I LOVE MY FIRST MOOK PURCHASE!
