One of my resolutions in 2011 is to redo my wardrobe. This basically includes weeding through my stuff, getting rid of whatever doesn't fit, or I haven't worn in a long time, etc. A few months ago, I weeded my once 200+ purse collection to about 40. And before you get too excited, a good quarter of those were Vera Bradley purses (more on my love/hate relationship with Vera Bradley in a later post).
Anyways, I have discovered I need a good brown or dark khaki leather purse. Can I afford any of these? God no. But can I drool over them? Yes.
BE & D Gable Bag, ShopBop, $1,095
MICHAEL Michael Kors Large Hamilton Handbag, Macy's, $298
Marc by Marc Jacobs Saddlery Loulou Bag, ShopBop, $558
Marc by Marc Jacobs Saddlery Sophie Bag, ShopBop, $478
Michael Kors Skorpios Shoulder Bag, Saks Fifth Avenue, $995
Chloe Partay Large Tote, Saks Fifth Avenue, $1,995
Gucci Marrakech Shoulder Flap Bag, Saks Fifth Avenue, $2,190
First and foremost, I want all of these. But if I had to choose, it would probably come down to the Gucci, BE & D, or the Marc Jacobs hobo. While the Marc Jacobs is the chocolate brown I really love, the Gucci has tassels. I love tassels. I will gladly pay an extra $20--if not more--if whatever I'm looking at has tassels. So in the end, the Gucci would probably win.
