Champagne Taste on a Wine Cooler Budget


I saw this purse in the window, I could've sworn I heard the purse yell my name. I backtracked and went inside. Asked the salesperson where I could find the bag, she said, it was the last one. She brought the purse out and I had to smile to keep from passing out over the price of the bag. Now, let's be clear, I'm not up with the latest fashions, brand names, what's in, what's hot, what's not.

I'm not a fashionita or whatever the cool names are for people that have great taste in clothes, etc. I can tell you if and when I see something that catches my eye, I stop in my tracks. Well, this is what happened when I saw this bag. CUTE! Well, the price tag sizzled my eyeballs.

Again, let me explain, I thought to myself, this purse might be at least $100. Well, I was off...I was WAY off. Try $350! THREE hunnid fiftee dollas! Yes, people. I thanked her and ran out of the store. RAN! Made a mental note of the store and looked up the reason why this bag was so expensive. Turns out EVERYTHING is expensive but, excellent quality of course.

I've never heard of the store in my life. I saw the bag in the window and loved it.
Thus explains the title of this post.

You could find similiar purses to the one in the picture at Chinese Laundry. Their shops could usually be found in outlet shopping. I wouldn't recommend their website because I tried to purchase something a while back and never received it and customer service was awful. We have the same taste in purse because the one in the picture would have caught my eye to.

LOL! I have never spent that much money on any type of clothing or purse or whatever, but I have been tempted.

That is REALLY cute! I think one day I will wind up with a designer label purse, even though I normally don't care for fashion.

Nice bag! My daughter & I both love Brighton stuff. We love to look at it then cry because we can't(or refuse to)buy it! :-(

Very nice(not the price, just the purse), and I don't even use purses. I just have a wallet and/or use the diaper bag.
