Rebecca Taylor Handbags

I've been meaning to get a good handbag for a while now. It all started when I went to go buy lunch and passed through the Isetan department store where they had this beautiful Burberry bag on display. Every time I go buy lunch I would look at it and sigh. I think that is a bit out of my league as I was just a chambering student then :P

Since I just started working, I think I should take a step back and look at other alternatives other than that Burberry bag. I've been looking at some Rebecca Taylor handbags and have found a few that I quite like. So what is the problem? Well, for starters they don't sell them here and secondly I can't quite decide from just looking at the pictures online.

But here are my top three choices:

The Rosetta (17,850円)

I really like the design for this one and the lining inside too! Yes, I actually have a thing for inside linings.




The Plum Looks (19,950円)

This one fits the criteria of being the every day nice practical bag that I can take to court.



バック（ハートチャーム付きトートバック）(19,950円)

Another option for the nice practical bag :)


Hence my current dilemma. I did take note of these bags the last time I went to Japan. But seeing how I haven't even started working at that time, I decide against getting one but got a nice dark purple Anna Sui wallet instead, which I love to bits :)

Back at work

I am now in my second week of work after my pupillage ended. So what's different? Well for starters, I have my own room now :) I think the thing I like most about it is that there is privacy. When I am making a telephone call to another law firm or to a client, at least I know that the whole world can't hear me. I have also resorted to using the speaker phone more often. That way it is easier to multi-task! My hands are free to do some typing or writing while talking on the phone hehe


Workload has been alright I think. As soon as I gain my momentum back everything should be fine. I find myself taking extra long to draft legal documents and opinions when I would usually be able to do it relatively quickly. I think I am still half in holiday mode. Need to snap out of it!

Today there was an interesting 'development' in my legal career. Its starting to have a clear direction. The partner of my practice group informed me that they need a person to focus on employment related matters and was wondering whether I am okay with taking on the role or opposed to the idea. I told her I am willing to concentrate on that area of law. To be honest, I always felt that I enjoy it and if I had a choice I would want to specialise in this area. It was after all an employment case which lead me to draft a 60+ page submissions which cited over 40 cases :P So I am happy :)

Not too long after she left my room, I got an employment assignment. So I guess it is with immediate effect :P
