WHAT'S IN HER BAG

Monica's essentials

see what's in monica luu's bag
1 1. Gaspard et Lisa 2007 schedule & pen The illustration, featuring one black and one white rabbit-like dogs, is done by French husband and wife team, Anne Gutman & Georg Hallensleben. I love their unpretentious, untamed and direct style.
2 My Sony DSC-T7 A birthday gift from last year. Helps capture images of daily life; often turning into some ideas for projects later.
3 Sonyericsson W800I cell phone Love it, hate it, can't live without it.
4 Marni Wallet Love the color. However, it's hard to keep it clean...
5 Marimekko's frame fabric pouch
Got it while in Tokyo. Went the the flagship store and had the urge to buy everything in the shop. The pattern makes me happy. Inside: foundation, blush.
6 iPod in a handmade wool felted pouch made by me. I love this model for the capacity. I enjoyed reviewing all the travel images on the plane. Currently listening: Mongolian singer, Urna's music.
7 Burt's Bee Res-Q ointment a great emergency little helper!
8 Key to my Mini Granted there are public transportations. However, it's liberating to leave the city when I needed.
9
Aranzi Aronzo's pouch When Peggy came to visit this past summer, I got one for her and one for myself. The graphic symbolized our friendship. Inside: wet tissue, cough drop, container for my contacts.
10 Muji's candy in honey lemon flavor. A great relief for sore throat.
11 DHC oil blotting paper To avoid looking greasy, practically every single girl in Asia carry this kind of product in their purses.
12 Key to our sanctuary We have an apartment that has view of Taipei's valleys and mountains. The first 2 months after we moved in, my husband, Bingo would get up before dawn and watche the sunrise every morning.

monica luu
who: Monica (a.k.a. egg) Luu, an interior stylist and designer based in Taipei.
sign: Virgo

notes from peggy: Monica is like a sister to me. We met 24 years ago at a all-girls Catholic school in Taipei. I've always admire her sense of style; clean and simple. Monica travels with her designer husband, Bingo, at least twice a year. A very inspiring couple who offer me unconditional love and support...
