CNY mood

Happy CNY again peeps!

Surprisingly this year CNY is rather quiet. There's lesser lion dance troupe around my area and lesser visiting session compared to the previous years, but the gambling sessions were still on for the past two days..hehe. Dad started working today. It's only the 4th day of CNY and I'm home alone. So quiet now that I can only hear the birds chirping.

The day before CNY eve, me and sis went to my grandma's. And we made these...

nice? It's traditional pineapple tarts from the sifu...my granny :p

Pancake

This was ages ago...

Me and sis decided to make some pancake for supper. It ended up this way...

Homemade Pancake (taste more like thick Roti Canai)

First sift the flour and break the eggs into a bowl

Pour in the milk
(After mixing the eggs with the flour only we realised that we are out of milk...haha...so we mixed the condensed milk with water!)

Mixed everything together until it forms a batter

Sis said pancake were suppose to be fluffy. So, we randomly added some baking powder...hehe~

we remembered the instruction behind the instance pancake mixed wrote "add in some oil". so, we added some into ours

to the frying pan

remember to add some butter to the pan to make the aroma nicer

and also flip it. Cook till it turns golden brown

and it's ready to be served.
We ate ours with honey and passion fruit. You can try yours with banana or ice-cream :P

Latest hang out

Our latest hang out...

Yups...it's a fine game of badminton! so healthy hor...It was kinda our New Year resolution >> To play badminton at least once a week. Since it's already our last sem, we must fully utilized the campus facilities...hehe~

After 5 long semester here, last week was the first time we stepped into our uni's gymnasium. We thought it quite stupid to pay 50 bucks each semester and yet we are still spending money to use the court outside. So, me and Carrine has already booked for this week and next week...hehe~

Fake LV?

Every girl would wants this!!!




A Louis Vuitton Well...at least for me I wished to have one~

For one who couldn't afford a new LV, like me, you may opt to search online for a second hand. But, how can you identify an authentic Louis Vuitton. Curious huh? Me too. I was so bored that I goggled for it.

Telling the fake LV from the real ones takes a good eye, some patients and a little of the product knowledge. So, here's the conclusion so far.

Taking the most common Monogram Canvas for example...

Telling it as a fake one if it has cracking or discolored leather. Real leather grows deeper in color over time due to contact with the oils on our hands, but should arrive looking even and in LV's case, the handles should come in a light beige.

Unaligned/crooked/overlapping/threading stitching may be a sign of fake LV. The authentic ones always has solid straight bright yellow stitching (unless old, then its brightness may be dulled by dirt). And also indented embossed line along the yellow stitching as well as deep maroon seal between leathers, seen on handles and straps.

Stitching should be very even and regular. The same number of stitches will be found in similar locations on similar bags... for example the leather tab that the handle attaches onto on any size monogram Speedy bag will always have 5 regular.

On a authentic LV there is always a continuous/continuity of canvas. The next piece of canvas lined up with the previous at the hems or the "matching point".

The LV logo should never be cut off. Regardless of where the individual monogram symbols appear on an item, they should all be whole. If you have an LV with a "cut off" logo...yups...it's fake!

The actual LV monogram is usually (with the exception of some vintage pieces) symmetrical from side to side in all monogram styles.

A real Louis Vuitton will have all the Monogram LV's facing down on one side of the bag. If you turn the bag around the other side should have all the monogram LV's facing up. The reason for this is that Louis Vuitton uses one continuous piece of leather that wraps around from the front to back, without a seam on the bottom. Thus, the backside has upside down logos. This is true on the Speedy styles (except French Company Speedys), the Keepalls, Papillons, and some similar styles. Most monogram pieces (any piece with a separate piece of canvas or leather on the bottom) will have the LVs rightside up on both sides.

Happy 2009
