[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here thank you, my husband despite not liking it and feeling she did this more out of spite then wanting to get her a great gift feels its best to let it go.

There have many other 'digs" in the past and what started on my part as a type of admiration for her style/finesse has grown into a deep dislike for her blatant disregard for my feelings knowing very very well my stand on these things. It wasn't like an LV wallet but a full on bag.  I did send my brother an email this morning he is ridiculously busy so  know it might take him some time to get to it but I know he will see my side of things.

She has made fun of my Marshalls and TJ Maxx purchases many times in front of other family members including her stepdaughters. I come from the background where you respect a parents wishes/boundaries and would never dream of overstepping them by getting something so elaborate if I  knew the parents would not approve.[/quote]

Why are you bothering your brother with this non-sense?  At least she got your daughter a gift.  Put it away for when she's an adult or let her use it for special occasions.  They can afford it.  I would have preferred a nice piece of jewelry for my daughter over a purse.  She can afford it.  Or, she was trying to get a reaction out of you and she did.  I feel sorry for your brother's ex-wife with all this drama.  You are overthinking this.  In less you specifically said do not buy my kid an expensive XXX, she probably didn't realize it. It may be a normal gift in her world.[/quote]
