Designer Handbags - Just Can’t Do It

My friend has the Coach Carly handbag, and I am so envious! It’s just the right size, has a great look, and costs $348. Take a look…is this cute, or what?

Coach Carly Handbag
As much as I want it, will I ever get one? Highly doubtful…for me to spend that much on a purse, it would have to last 7 years at a minimum, and I get so bored with purses I’d want to change it out within a year.

I went to Mexico and bought a Louis Vuitton-like purse. I thought I had really scored, especially since I bartered the price down 50 bucks, until someone pointed out the initials were wrong. Damn!! It’s a really well made handbag, but I have too much pride to carry it now. The fake Dooney and Bourke is too small to hold anything, but at least it looks real.

The day I was supposed to go to my niece’s purse party I got sick - that was such a bummer. I was so hopeful I’d find a faux-Carly there.

Now I hear Marshall’s is carrying Coach at a discount. The same friend with the authentic Coach bag found a darling pair of Coach shoes marked down from some ungodly price to $100 - maybe there’s hope yet.
