I Spy! - Kate Torralba

Another trip to visit my sisters in London and Germany next month meant another Visa application. Good thing my son doesn't need one coz he has dual nationality. So anyways, Mama and I went to the UKVACS (UK Visa Application Centre) last June 2, Tuesday. We were originally scheduled on the 1st of June but I forgot about our appointment *typical*. Arrived at the Phil-AXA building and after 10 years of waiting for the lift, we were already late for our appointment, but luckily still within the grace period *whew*.

Went in to wait some more, and that's when I spotted Kate Torralba *without make-up*

I was wondering what she is up to, going to UK and all when I saw this in StyleBible.ph


So that's why....

Anyway, she looked cute in her monochromatic outfit. It was raining that day, she had a jacket on and was carrying a really pretty Balenciaga First bag. I wanted to take a picture but it wasn't allowed inside the UKVACS.

I kept glancing discreetly in her direction to gawk at her bag *stalker* and this is what she was carrying *90% sure*

I find the color combo unusual (caramel and dark brown), but it still looked pretty. It is made of suede with leather lining. I covet this bag *paging my hubby* coz this is great for everyday use, but I would probably get a neutral shade.

I like how she pulled the outfit together, using the colors of the bag to do a monochromatic look. I'm trying to remember the shoes, and I think it was also caramel/brown... I wonder where she got the shoes?

  1. i met kate many, many years ago at my sister's exhibit (they're friends) and she's super friendly--i met her again a few weeks after she still remembered my name even if we didn't really talk when we met. she's very petite no? :) love her bag! i want a first too, in yellow or black or galet/grey. :)
