basic - long bag wishlist post!

Marc by Marc Jacobs Sale $327.60
I can buy it after Christmas since I'll get money as presents most likely and I have a lot of work during the second half of december and could totally pay off my parents AND buy this gorgeous, buttery-looking-leather bag. Is is gross that I can almost feel the softness and velvety feel of super soft leather? I need to get more schedules for work! Haha. Drool drool, I want you MBMJ Totally Turnlock Quinn Bag. I know it's me since all I wear is black and I've bought lots of cheaper bags but I've still stuck to my trusty, shiny "snake skin" leather dooney and bourke bag, my first somewhat designer bag...so I know I'll keep using this one. Plus it's way bigger and I could fit my whole life into that bad boy!

I'm planning to ask for a good leather purse for my graduation present. Some kids ask for cars, computers, money to party...I'm probably going to ask for a lovely leather handbag...preferably Marc Jacobs?

Others I'm contemplating :



Mayle Sale $325
I don't know this brand but I'm drooling over this purse, this is my second choice...a very close second choice! The leather looks exquisite but the straps look short and I like to throw it over my shoulder especially since I'm probably going to jampack it since I will use these bags when I go to college/university in the fall!! yay!



Jill Stuart $375
This looks a bit on the small side but it's got lovely details, I'm only iffy on it since I might get sick of the little features. I really just need to get a sack to make me happy haha. I like her other bags too, they're all very reasonably priced compared to other bags (Sienna Miller's line is selling a bag for 800$, I believe as long as you don't really have a name for yourself in fashion...YOU ARENT ALLOWED TO SELL BAGS FOR EIGHT HUNDRED FRIGGIN DOLLARS &end rant.)



Oh hello there you sexy beast of a bag!
Marc by Marc Jacobs $528
I don't have too much to say about this one besides that it's gorgeous but I think I like the first one better...yeah, I do like the first one better but I don't really think I'm going to ask for the last one 1) too expensive 2)I'm not flipping over backwards for it like the first two 3) I feel like I'll get sick of it easily.

Now for some fun stuff....lol...things I look for in a bag :

• SIZE - I like my bags HUGE. I put everything in there, phone, pencil case, make up bag, agenda, lunch, water bottle, reading books, the occasional school book....the kitchen sink...
• Longer Strap - I hate carrying a hand bag. I feel like it's too low and since I'm short and I love big bags I'm scared the bag will scrape against the floor as I walk. I need to carry it on my shoulder since I put tons of stuff in it...therefore I need my shoulders to carry all the weight.
• Colour - This one's simple... BLACK
• Material - Leather, Leather, Leather!
  
• Minimal details and accents, if I don't want to get sick of the bag it needs to be ultra plain and simple :P
  

I really, really like the last bag but I don't want to ask my parents for such an expensive gift because I'd feel guilty and because I'm a jerky little only-child who will probably want more than one gift for grad haha, I shouldn't really be proud of that.

Anyways thank for reading this ... if you did haha. Long post, but I just really want to make sure I don't waste $300+ on a bag I'm not completely in love with. I don't mind saving up for something expensive I just have to make sure I don't make the wrong choice. Haha, this sounds like a big life-changing moment, but it almost is since my life is pretty much in my hand bag :)

New in store!

These are the new listings up for sale in my store now! I have a nice lace top, very popular for fall, and a red quilted bag now up for sale.

Tristan Lace Top $20

Red Quilted Bag - $9

Wooden Bead Necklace - $3

Prada Fairy Bag

They've been around for a while and at first I thought they were hideous little things but after looking through them I've fallen madly in-love. They're gorgeous in a weird, whimsical, imaginary-world, ugly/pretty way. Many celebs are being spotted wearing the coveted bag and theres supposedly a huge waiting list for one. I could decide to save up for one once I get back to work and I could probably get it after a few months of work...I think the price tag for the smaller, white ones are around 2200 or so (something I could afford as long as I don't spend a penny for like 6 months...HAHA and beg my parents like there's no tomorrow). Okay nevermind, I can't really "afford" it in the sense I know it will only be around for fall and by next spring everyone will be stashing theirs in the back of their closets. I, at 16, with a tiny pay-check cannot afford to do that. I need to be able to buy a bag and use it for 10 years +...haha. I'm really contemplating in investing a classic black leather bag, I love the balenciaga motorcycle bags still. I don't think I'll ever get over them haha. Anyways until I get back to work, I will simply keep dreaming about these lovely purses.

Souliers!

K so I finally got around to taking pictures of my "new" shoes from Old Navy. They were such a deal I had to buy 2 pairs, hehe. Anyways I've also included pictures of these feathered hair accessories from Urban Outfitters, my leather jacket I scrounged up from my aunt's closet and my huge patent yellow tote from Superstore. Also...presenting my new laptop...on my extremely messy desk haha.

I plan to wear those sandals and stuff with the new socks I bought from this sock sale from The Bay! They're kind of painful though so I might remember to bring some flats when I have to walk to the bus stop haha. Sucks not being able to drive....
