I'm talkin a couple thou, over a bag. Is it worth it? At what point is it just a waste of $$? At those prices, you're not just buying a bag, you're buying the name, the brand, etc.

I was just thinking about this the other day ... my sis would easily spend £400 on a bag, whereas I'd MUCH rather go on hols or do something else with it .. however, I've seen a watch for £399.99 and I've been wondering to myself whether I could actually spend the money? It's designer, but the second I saw it, I just knew I'd love it, not to mention I've not really got a 'lasting watch', you know, one for the 'special' occasions!
I don't think I'd do the bag thing very easily, but others, heck yeh! |

I have a few mid-priced bags $250-300 and I love those bags. They are VERY durable and the compartments are numerous. I spend that on a bag if I think they are adorable and different, like my Juicy Couture bags (I just love Juicy bags). I also have a couple D&B bag because of the unique colors and styles. I also like that if anything goes wrong with those bags I can send them back to be replaced. Those are good quality bags without breaking my bank account. To spend a $1000 on a bag, no I haven't seen any bag that will make me go crazy YET...but if I did and I have the funds I will..
 For my birthday/Christmas, I want a LV bag just to say I have one Last edited by Prinzez Diva; 09-10-2006 at 12:14 PM.. |

I can't stand carrying a bag. When I go out, all i need is money, credit card & lipgloss. With the exceptions of feminine products or like my girl who likes to carry along her flask...wtf else do u need with all those compartments? I mean on a daily basis, not when ya bag "comes in handy" for some event where u need to throw in a bunch of stuff.

I just got a really great Marc Jacobs leather tote from Neimans, which is not like a Chanel bag or anything but as I understand it was pretty pricey. I love the thing, I can stick all of my papers for work in there with no problems and the leather is so soft, alas it was a "back to work" gift. There is no way I wouldve paid nearly a grand and a half on one bag.

 Soft and supple leather is embossed with scrambled letters spelling out "Marc Jacobs" on this slouchy tote. Two front pockets bear round brass buckles that tie in with the round links on the comfortable rolled leather shoulder strap. Finished with a vibrant interior. Soft and supple grained leather embossed with scrambled letters of "Marc Jacobs" Smooth leather trim with contrast topstitching Brass hardware Two front flap pockets with buckle closures Folded top closure Rolled leather shoulder strap with round links; 10.5" drop Vibrant psychedelic floral print interior with zipped pocket Protective metal feet 13.5" x 12.75" (at sides) x 6" This bag is just adorable...and the color is really nice and different. So to me this bag is worth the $430. |
