What I Got For My Birthday 2021

Thank you for checking out my blog post in which I share with you what I got for my birthday 2021.  I celebrated my birthday Thursday February 25.

I had a desire to get a new handbag for Christmas 2020 but that didn't work out but I got the opportunity to do so for my birthday.  I didn't know what color handbag I wanted and how much I wanted to spend.  So when I went into the store I saw this beautiful navy blue handbag and fell in love with it without even seeing if it had all the characteristics that I like. 

I purchased a navy blue handbag in Trinidad a few years ago but did not really like it.  I like handbags that stay upright even when its empty.  This handbag would just fold over when it was empty.

I purchased a navy blue Alyssa 3 piece hand bag that is spacious on the inside and lined with leopard design fabric.  There is no division but has two pockets on one side of the bag and one on the other side of the bag. This pocket has a zipper.  The bag is secured with a zipper which is a great feature me when traveling.

On the outside on one side of the bag is a zippered compartment which is great to place my cell phone and keys.  On the other side of the bag there is a flap with a fake gold locket.  There isn't any compartment here the flap is just a design.  I'm thinking after a while the fake gold locket will get discolored.  The bag handles are flexible which I like.

As I mentioned before this is a 3 piece hand bag so the other pieces that came with the hand bag are a wallet and pouch.  The wallet is spacious and I love the feel of the outside of the wallet.

The other item that I got for my birthday is a beautiful purple lace Bali bra.  I've been wanting to get one like this for a few months now.  The bra pads are lined with lace which are loosely attached to the pads.  

I was greatly disappointed when I wore this bra for the first time.  It doesn't support my breasts firmly and there is 'spillage' under my arm.

This next item that I got is a comfortable slippers that I can easily walk around town in.

The day before my birthday my husband sponsored my visit to the hair salon to have my hair colored and the next day we had lunch at loose Mongoose. The photo below is of a Reggae Callaloo Soup that I ordered for my appetizer.  I was so excited when I made my order thinking I was getting a callaloo soup but it was a pumpkin soup and the green thing is Jamaican callaloo.

My son gave 12 sponge cup cakes each coated with vanilla icing and topped with raspberries and blue berries.  Super delicious
