Although I’m on my way through a next chapter in my life, I still do not leave my first love behind – bags :). I used to go online to do my homework about bags and always end up settling with those super-branded ones which are very expensive. I normally do this when I have an upcoming trip (especially going to HK) to add to my collection. But last year, I came across this local brand called Ni Qua and never had second thoughts of buying this brand.
Admittedly, my first time to buy a local brand, I find this simple but very elegant, best for office use or even just going to the malls. I’m not really used to buying online stuff especially when it comes to bags- I have to feel it first before I buy it! So when I learned that this Ni Qua was having a small kiosk in Century Mall last year (yup, my another long over-due blog!!!), I immediately dragged Lester (thanks to my husband for allowing us to skip a Pacquiao fight for this) so I can see the bags personally.
Made of good quality leather, Ni Qua, during that time had less variety of designs but you can customize the colors. But this brand has grown a lot thus releasing more designs. You may check their site for more details.
I got (or husband got me!) a Bespoke Manico Large sized bag in Burgundy color. It came with a free leather pouch (free during that time, they had a promo) that I use for my phones. I love the leather; the bags don’t have a lining so you are sure about the quality of the leather. Another good thing about it is that the handles are not sealed with a black thin rubber which sometimes tends to fall off after a number of use (and especially when you do not use them at all!). Although it doesn’t have zippers or pockets, this bag still fits me because it’s spacious and really sturdy. And the best part- they can have your initials embossed with a minimal fee to personalize it.
Girls will never have enough bags.
