None of us here has anyone room to point at anyone for "splurging" on such frevilous items.

And anyone here with kids I am sure has bought name brand items for them. You have to think, with the amount of money people like Angie has, a 2k purse is the same as us buying a $100 one.

I see nothing wrong with her buying her kids nice things, we all do it.
Very well said! Who are we to talk.

Anyway, I love miniaturized versions of anything, and this is just too cute!

Even if she did, I think she deserves the right to spend her money as she wishes. If she wants to spoil Zahara here and there I see nothing wrong with that. I know she does tons of charity work, but I don't think she ever signed a contract where she has to donate all of her expendable money to charity. Sure, that would be nice, but for her hard work she deserves rewards for herself.

That's like saying every philanthropist should live in a cheap apartment because the money spent on a nice house/mansion could have gone to charity.

Just my 2 cents.
She can spend her money however and whenever she likes-but isn't it a little ridiculous to give a 3 year old child something to "carry" around that's worth nearly $1000? What is the point of getting something so extravagant-when there are so many other things she could do for Zahara instead. Do you think Z has any clue what that bag costs?

I think it is ridiculous how some people are saying a child shouldn't have it, it clashes with AJ's humanitarian interests, etc.

First of all, this is tpf, where "shallow obsessing is encouraged." I don't think any of us have any right or place to be criticizing that somebody is spoiled or that money would be well spent donating it to charity, I mean look at us. We could probably save a bunch of orphans if we all donated our bags to them. Why is it OK for us to spend frivolously and then criticize someone like angie for it. She earned her money just like we did. Give me a break.

I don't think that unless you are donating 100% of your salary to orphans and living in box eating Ramen everyday that you have any remote place to criticize angie.

Cute but yikes. A bit early for a designer purse, I'd say.
Different strokes and all but still.

some of the posters in here really need to RELAX!

Like Angie is any less of a humanitarian because she indulged her daughter a little Who cares if she paid for the bag or got it free! Didn't most of us at one point want to copy our mom? Maybe Z loved her mommy's bag and wanted one of her own. I'm sure she didn't realize it was designer and cost 4 figures. She's a kid for pete's sake!!!

Material things only have the value we give them. Stop being so judgmental and relax esp. if it's concerning a purse being posted on the PURSE FORUM.
