I would never spend less than $15,000 for a bag. I can't carry a bag that other people are carrying.

There are nice, quality bags for $100-$200. Hopefully the one you buy will be closer to $150 than $1K.




There are people who would say that $100-$200 is excessive for a bag. They can go to target or walmart and spent $30. Price is relative to income. You can't fall trap to that game. My mom would have never spent more than $50 on a bag. I won't spend more than $3000. Does it make either of us bad people? No--different lifestyles, different incomes.....just because someone can't or doesn't want to spend money on a bag doesn't mean that those that can/do are wrong.

Hermes Kelly. It comes with its own rainhat and "has never been carried". 8)





Exactly. Why would anyone waste her money on a cheap bag that has already been carried? I can tell the difference in quality instantly. You might as well buy your bag at Walmart.

OP here. Holy crap. What is wrong with you people?
I haven't had time to check DCUM in a while so I was excited to check back and see if anyone found me a great bag ..... And needless to say I was surprised to see 11 pages of fighting about whether rich people hang picassos in the bathroom and other such fascinating topics.

Anyways, thanks for the suggestions I did get - I liked Rebecca minkoff and kooba too!

(And, FWIW, I not feel the slightest bit bad about buying myself a nice bag for my 40th bday, and no amount of DCUM vitriol will change that. I rarely treat myself to such things, I can easily afford it, and I deserve it!)



WHY do you "deserve it" ? That's such a cheap advertising ploy, and you fell for it hook, line, and sinker. Why does someone inherently deserve nice things over other people? Aren't other people entitled to nice things too? Don't tell me "I work hard." Other people do too, harder than you for less money.

What an inane waste of money. It's obscene, really.

Just remember the people who would save for a month to buy a $12 pair of shoes for their child. These people do exist, and live in trailer parks all over the country.

There are nice, quality bags for $100-$200. Hopefully the one you buy will be closer to $150 than $1K.

Use the extra to pay off your mortgage faster, save for a special vacation, party, or day to spend with loved ones. Create some memories!

I was thinking the exact same thing! Wouldn't the steam from the shower essentially ruin them? Doesn't truly fine art require special handling (temperatures, lighting, etc.)? No one who would care that much about preserving such fine works of art to pass down through the ages would treat those pieces like this. I call BS on the idiotic poster who claimes she knows so many of these people.



You're the idiot. I mentioned later in the thread that the painting was in a powder room. No shower steam in a powder room. Believe what you want to -- doesn't matter to me.


Then you should have said that up front, since I didn't see your clarification until AFTER I sub,itted my post. That doesn't change the fact that putting such a fine piece of art in such a room is just plain idiotic and asking for it to be ruined.


I did that because, like other posters you've been arguing with more than me, I don't believe you actually know these people. You brought it on yourself with your high and mighty, holier than thou attitude. Next time keep that in check if you don't want people like me to give you a hard time.

Ok, but you didn't have to call me an "idiotic poster" just because I knew someone who kept fine art in the powder room. It's not my fault.

I'll echo: Why is it in bad taste? Just because you wouldn't do it? I like my expensive bags. I'm sure you spend money on things I would fine pointless. What does it matter to you how I choose to spend my money?
