ksmithI like nice handbags. Call it a weakness.
I didn't used to care. I once bought a Kathy Ireland dark green nylon and vinyl mini knapsack from KMart at an age when I had no business buying Kathy Ireland anything. I used a seamripper to pick off the KI logo badge, and used the thing until the strap tore. Five or six years. Pretty good for a bag that, iirc, cost me $10-$12 at the most.
Then my tastes changed. Maybe getting out of the lab and into the office played a part. All I can say is Thank God for eBay and nice used bags because brand new just is never going to work.
Scored a very nice used Coach shoulder bag. It arrived today. I don't think this particular style is on sale anymore, which makes it vintage. Or something.
