Ever since I was a little girl I have been into handbags. Much like shoes they always fit and a great bag can totally make an outfit.
To me a purse is something you can totally justify spending a good chunk of change on. Because unlike the rest of your outfit you are likely wearing your bag over and over again; like EVERY day.
So today I am talking Big Ticket Christmas gifts. You know like that 90 inch TV that your husband is trying to pawn off as a FAMILY Present? Well now it is time to get in on those big-ticket items for yourself. And I propose that the IT bag should make it to the top of every husband’s, boyfriend’s or partner’s Christmas list.

2. Lanvin Small Shoulder Bag in Red
3. Chloe Marcie Large Shoulder Bag in Black
4. Chloe Marcie Small Bag w/ Strap in Tan
5. REED KRAKOFF Hand Finished Leather and Linen Boxer Bag
6. Proenza Schouler PS1 Medium Leather
7. 3.1 Phillip Lim 31 Hour Bag
8. Fuchsia Embossed Calf Leather Pashli Satchel by 3.1 Phillip
9. Alexander Wang Rocco Duffel with Gold Hardware
10. CLUB MONACO Jane Mayle Tote
11. Coach Classics Leather Field Bag
12. Foley + Corinna Mid City Tote
13. Clare Vivier Messenger In Cognac cognac
14. CLUB MONACO Kera Suede Hobo
15. CLARE VIVIER Fold Over Clutch
All of these bags are expensive. Some are more than a month’s rent, more than our montly mortgage. Others are around the price of a car payment and the least expensive bag is just under $200. But not any more than a MacBook Pro, a fancy DSLR camera, IPad or big screen TV which are also Big Ticket Christmas gifts.
My guess is most girls hearts are more set on Chloe than Sony, or set on Alexander over Mac.
Which bag would you add to your Christmas list?

Love the large Chloe Black bag. These high end expensive bags are simply gorgeous, you are right to compare them to a 90 in TV!

Yes we often think nothing of spending the Big Ticket money on a TV or computer but not on luxury clothing & accessories! I think we should start a new trend ;)
