My mom and I are the bag hags in our family. Shopping for bags is an addiction we both share, much like a bonding-slash-exercise activity for us inside malls.
There are instances we bought bags behind each other's backs and went ga-ga over the incidents. We interrogate one another of the purchase and never fails to mention the date we have bought the latest bag in our collection.Well, mostly my mom interrogates me with my new bag, making me worried sick to the point that I experience buyer's remorse. But, whenever I return the favor, she always puts on the puppy dog eyes and narrates the perpetual story that she never buys anything lucrative for herself except for bags. I'd like to put on a brave face in order to smack her with a rebuttal but then it's too late for me for smoke gets in her eyes. Damn! My mom's good, no? LOL
I have never lusted over a bag before (swear!) but this Proenza Schouler bag was absobloodylutely an exception.
I love the color (but I'm also lusting the black one), plus it's semi-utilitarian-but-still-stylish in the looks department. I also like the fact that even if it's a bitch bag, it still looks sexy enough for a guy.
The bag retails at around $1,995 at Barneys. A little pricey for me that's why it's my goal from hereon to find a good alternative before I'm tired of stopping myself to go broke for this bag.
