Handbags: Kate Spade

I hate that I'm always late on all the latest things. I'm just never in the KNOW! I was shopping at the Houston outlet place with my family and went inside Kate Spade while everyone else was at other stores. Of course I make a beeline towards the sales area. I really like how incredibly colorful all the bags were. If I were a mature adult, I think I would spoil myself with a bunch of Kate Spage purses. It's not outrageously expensive and it's not cheapy looking. Like COACH. Sorry all you Coach wearers. Haha. Anyways, who cares what I think. Wear what you want to wear! So I'm browsing the sales and damage items and I come across this white patent clutch that is designed to look like one of those old-fashioned envelopes. The ones with the blue and red edging. OMGawd I fell in love with it instantly. I wanted it so bad. I was standing there just mulling and mulling away. The clasp on the clutch was broken and so it wouldn't be able to stay closed. If I bought it, it would mean that I would have to take it to a place that would repair it for me. Since it was damaged, there was a 25% discount on top of the already 30% off everything in the entire store. Even with all those discounts, the clutch was still a good fifty bucks. And that's not including the money I would have to pay additionally to get it fixed. Oy vay! Ai yah! Choi oi! So I somehow managed to tell myself not to buy it and left. Fifteen minutes later I dragged my cousin into the store to get her opinion. She gave me the how practical is the purse non-sense and also said it wasn't worth it especially since it was broken. While having lunch with my mom and aunt in the food court, I asked my mom if she wanted to buy me a purse. Haha! Man. I was willing to jump through hoops! And PLUS, she's USPS! She's gotta love the fact that the clutch looked like the envelopes she used to use back in the day. But nope. She was also too practical and sensible to buy something that was broken. If only they had a one that was mint. I think she would have bought a brand spankin' new one for me since I never ask her for anything. Man. I think I like taking my ma shopping. And if you're wondering. I could not find the clutch anywhere online. I think it was like a holiday line and it sold out pretty quick. I want! The style is called Par Avion. It comes in three styles, a cosmetic case, the nikolette is the one I wanted and then there's the medium shopper.

Handbags: Louis Vuitty

It's been quite some time since I've made oogily googily eyes at a designer handbag. I was flipping through this magazine and this purse just caught my eye! Well there were actually two bags that caught my attention but I wasn't able to locate a picture of the other one. In any case, the bf already vetoed my request. Boo! I guess I'm only allowed to ask for pricey camera equipement that I have no idea how to use. Yay to that! The biggest problem with the purse is it's color. I have no business handling nice things because I'm not capable of taking care of it and keeping it minty. But it's so purrrty! I would look like such a mature little lady carrying it around. Bottom line: Will my camera fit in there?

Handbags: ALG

I love that comic strip Angry Little Girls. It features these girls just saying really mean things. My favorite is Kim, she's the angry little asian girl, and she literally could have been based off me! Haha! These clever little characters were created by Lela Lee who is based in Los Angeles. As a constant wanter of things, there's this really cute bag that I have my eyes on.
