This past weekend, I found myself shopping in department store after department store looking for the perfect purse. Though I couldn’t really afford anything in the store, I do love taking my time to look. I came to the section of the store that has women’s purses. To my surprise, I found that not a single price tag was something that I could even pretend to afford. How can anyone spend so much on a handbag? I looked down at my own cheap purse and just walked away. My Blue Betsey Johnson handbag has been a constant companion for me over the years, and though worn out, has been one of the best purchases that I have ever made.Years ago, I vowed that I would never spend a small fortune on a purse and to this day I have kept that pledge.
You’ll see a lot more replicas of Juicy Couture walking the streets than authentic. Most of the replica cheap purses are identical to the authentic purses that you”ll spend a fortune purchasing. In fact, if you see an average person walking around with a purse that flaunts an expensive brand name – chances are, it is a replica.
We want purses that are affordable, stylish and durable. Seriously, we put just about everything in our purses and we would expect nothing less. Sometimes I even surprise myself with what I find in my handbag – it is amazing that you can store so much in them.
If you are trying to stay trendy and keep some money in your pocket, expensive purses are probably not the answer that you are looking for. Do yourself a favor. Look online and find a store that sells affordable handbags that are stylish, but not outrageously priced. Besides, there are other things (besides purses) that you need your money for.
