I got my first Coach bag about 2 years ago. I thought it was SO stupid to spend that much for a purse and wallet, but my husband wanted to give me something nice

We've just recently had his child support end, so we can afford nice stuff once in a while now. Before, we had to pay the support and there was never any extra after bills. So I get a new bag about twice a year now, and have three Coach and one Dooney. I can't justify the expense of a LV or any of the other high end designers, even their smallest bags are a fortune

I'd love a Chanel (and do have sunglasses by them that have held up SO well

) but those are out of my reach
Anyway, the best thing by far about Coach and D&B bags is that they hold up SO well! So I figure they are an investment, because I'll be able to carry them for years and years
