I’m paralyzed lately getting a new handbag. I just don’t like the “slouchy” look that is all the rage. Honestly, I love a good handbag, but I just can’t seem to part with the funds that my hearts desire is drawn to.
Why oh why do they have to cost so much money? Do “real people” really spend this much money on these handbags or do they have an “in” that I don’t know about? Someone tell me! Please…I think they have a secret that no one knows about!
This season, it looks like I’m totally absorbed in Marc Jacobs and Dolce&Gabbana go figure! Can’t you just “see” the difference!
I like purses with structure, and simple classic shape. Don’t give me bling and I’m not into hooks and rings. Just a beautiful classic leather bag. No “stuff” on the outside of a bag that advertises for the designer. Talk about “free” advertising. How crazy is that! Subtle elegance is high on my priority list!
Maybe someone will “gift’ me one of these one day! Until then, I’ll have to stick to the labels everyone knows Coach, Kate Spade, and Brahmain for example. Ho, hum! As I use to tell my children, just because I like doesn’t mean I get!
How about you? Are you drawn to accessories that are totally out of your price range? How do you do it? Do you go there? I think, I really do think that there is a place that we don’t know about that sells handbags for a fraction of the cost and are as good quality as those that are thousands of dollars. It’s called “knockoffs” or “fakes” and I won’t go there either! Real or nothing for me! Until then……
“Look Good, Feel Great and Have FUN Doing It!”
I love this article. I love purses but I agree with you, the ones I love, I can’t or won’t pay the price. So I’m sticking with Kate Spade, Michael Kors, Gusto and others that have the simple but fashionable appeal. Even those purses, I make sure I purchase on sale!
Have a great day!
Good for you that you can find them on sale! I only wish I could find the ones that I love at a reasonable price!
