✨Brand: MARHEN J 🇰🇷

🛒Product Item: Ricky Mini Canvas Shoulder Bag

💰 Price: Got it as a birthday gift so not sure of the cost.

👍Why I like it: So durable, comfortable and waterproof! Even after placing so much things into the bag, it doesn’t feel heavy at all. Doesn’t strain your shoulders too. Many compartments & you can even place a small water bottle at the side compartments.

Rating /⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: 5

2. 🛒Product Item: Lavie Canvas Shoulder Bag

💰 Price: Got it for ~$90 SGD in Seongsu, Seoul after tax refunds. Many bags were on sale there but I got this instead cos I’ve been eyeing it for ages!

👍Why I like it: I use the bag for both school and work, fits my macbook (& definitely other kind of laptop sizes too). The bag is so spacious & there’s also 1 side compartment inside to place your bottles.

Rating /⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: 5 again!! I really love Marhen J bags. So so comfortable & water-resistant!

✨Brand: STANDOIL 🇰🇷

1. 🛒Product Item: Square Low Bag in Red

💰 Price: $115 SGD (includes the pouch)! Got it for sale on their official website & had it shipped to SG.

👍Why I like it: The red colour is so gorgeous IRL! I was a bit hesitant in getting it as I’ve never had a bag this red before. But def no regrets getting it cause it’s got that classy vibe about it.

👎 Why I dislike it: It’s personally pretty straining and painful on the shoulders if you tend to just put a couple of things in it. Think it’s not pretty comfortable if you’re using it for the whole day.

2. 🛒Product Item: Chubby Bag in Brown

💰 Price: ~$100 SGD. Got it at a sale price on their official website too & had it shipped to SG.

👍Why I like it: I actually only purchased the bag because Le Sserafim’s Yunjin looked so good carrying it. Haha. But then also the bag design looks really cute too! There are 2 small compartments in the front to put some mini things, although it’s also not very spacious.

👎 Why I dislike it: Similar to the red bag, can’t put too much stuffs in it as it can get pretty straining on the shoulders if you’re carrying it for the whole day. It’s def much better if you’re taking turns carrying the bag either by hand or by shoulder.

✨Brand: SAMO ONDOH 🇰🇷

1. 🛒Product Item: Pocket Mug Bag M (Goat Chocolate)

💰 Price: $130 SGD, got it from Seoul!

👍Why I like it: The bag looks small but it can fit so many things! There are so many compartments; the front, sides and the back, & even inside the bag itself. I love the material also because it feels so soft thus it doesn’t feel heavy on the shoulders. It also doubles up as a cross-body bag. If you’d like to put your macbook, get the L size! It’s much more spacious and bigger.

Rating /⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: 5!!!

P.S If I had to only use 1 bag for life, it’s def this bag!! 🤭

2. 🛒Product Item: Trio Belt Mug Bag M (Black)

💰 Price: $115 SGD. got it from the official website!

👍Why I like it: the belt designs are so pretty! and you can even mix and match with the belts to create a totally different design. It also doubles up as a cross-body and has adjustable straps.

👎 Why I dislike it: I actually bought the wrong size… Was intending to get the L size but got the M size instead. The M size is pretty small and there isn’t much things you can put in it.

✨Brand: MATIN KIM 🇰🇷

1. 🛒Product Item: Side Zipper Two Way Bag

💰 Price: $150 SGD, got it from seoul!

👍Why I like it: Doubles up as a cross-body which is something I really love in bags. The inside is really spacious so it can fit quite a couple of items!

👎 Why I dislike it: There are no inner or outside compartment pockets 🥹

Rating /⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: 3

✨Brand: THE PAPER BUNNY 🇸🇬

1. 🛒Product Item: The Vessel Bag in Rich Eclipse

💰 Price: $99 SGD

👍Why I like it: It is so spacious, water-resistant & the leather material makes it so durable & soft. There are 2 zip pockets at the side, good for stashing your wallets/passports. Also I love the built-in charms at both sides so I can hang lots of my keychains! Also doubles up as a cross-body bag & has adjustable straps!

👎 Why I dislike it: feels like the elongated V-shaped bag doesn’t suit me that much. also when I use it as a shoulder bag, the strap keeps dropping down (i’m guessing also it could be because of the material!) as my friend who got the nylon material said hers was alright.

Rating /⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: 4

2. 🛒Product Item: Bottle Buddy in Gloss Milk

💰 Price: $39 SGD

👍Why I like it: good to use when taking a walk or exercising or just grabbing a quick bite! made of

water-resistant material & of soft nylon material. it also includes a snap loop which i can hang my keys/airpods & a side zipper pocket to stash my cards/cash!

👎🏻 Why I dislike it: the bag is sealed using a velcro so after using for such a long time it has gotten loose! would have preferred if TPB could use other methods instead. And also when carrying as a cross-body, the bottle bag tends to shift towards the side instead of the front which makes it a bit weird.
