Accessories : Burberry Mini Towels
I found another designer items I would like to collect as well : Towels ! (LOL).Sounds a bit silly collecting towels but this is just something that I found accidentally. So I was browsing through my usual consignment store that usually sells vintage scarves (the one that I bought a few designer scarves from), and that day I saw they have a couple of mini towels from various designer brands, from Burberry to Polo Ralph Lauren to Fendi, etc. I was intrigued by it because it was the first time I ever saw the mini towels in that store although I frequented that store.
When I said mini towels I meant it's the small towels that you use for hands or face. There's also a small bathroom hand towel that has longer shape and size. When I saw them I thought I could use these for my travelling. Maybe for washing face at the airport or for an extra towel at the hotel. I could also use these as my sports towel. Well I only do yoga as sports, but I can bring this mini towel to my yoga class to wipe any sweats and it would be cool, right? hehe ..
So I ended up picking three Burberry mini towels that day. Two of the smaller size / face towel and one larger size / sports towel. The two mini ones each have different patterns and color, I picked up one in red/pink hues and the other one in the usual Burberry color theme but with stripes pattern (as seen above).
While the larger one or the sports towel as the store says, is of Burberry's signature check pattern and color. The sports towel has fluffier material so it feels a bit more luxurious than the two small ones. But nonetheless I love all of them. I use the sports towel for when I go to my yoga class or for swimming (just to tap the water excess off my face and hands after swimming), and sometimes I use it as my hair towel too, for wrapping my hair after I done washing it. The size is great for short to medium length hair.
As for the small mini towels I hang them near my sink as a hand towel in my bathroom. I use them alternately so when I wash the other I can use the other one ;) This is perfect for guest bathroom too because you only wanna use your fancy towels on the guest room, right? LOL.

Actually I did buy another mini towel afterwards, which is an MCM face towel in it’s iconic color and logo. But right now I couldn’t find it so I can’t include it in the pictures on this post. As soon as I find it I will update this post again, but meanwhile let’s just focus on the Burberry towels for now ;)
I hope I can find more designer brand accessories just like this, maybe a discounted blanket or home decor items? I would like to adorn my home with more quality items as well, so they would last me longer than my regular items and can save me money in the future.
I'm slowly trying to upgrade the things around me with better quality items because now I realize that better quality items have better wear time and they don't break so easily. But because they're expensive so I can only add them one by one, little by little, if my budget permits. Hopefully in the long run when our income would eventually rise so does our ability to purchase the finer things in life :)
