Sometimes I have felt this way too. Lately I am finding joy in more affordable bags as long as they are still well made. Try all your stuff in the totally and stand in front of the mirror, if it is the one you will feel it. Also don't be like me if you keep the bag use it. I had actually saved for the totally myself and then decided against it. I was trying to stay away from more monogram bags. As silly as that sounds since I ended up with a signature bag from Mk. I originally bought the leather one that is zippered completely at the top,but the place I ordered it from sent me one with a strong odor. Then I went in person and bought this one.
