My mother's jaw drops everytime she sees me with a new bag in tow. The boyfriend thinks I'm insane to drop that much on a purse. The only person I can relate to about this is my best friend who is a big as fan i am. :D
 
For me, it's my boyfriend. Even though I buy my bags with my own money it seems he always has to complain everytime I want to buy a new bag. He's a little upset that I don't use the bag he bought me 2 years ago which is just a plain black leather bag from Town Shoes (it looks like the alma). It's definitely not an everyday bag. But I do like it, I used it for my entire last year at university as my laptop bag but geez is it so hard to understand a girl just likes to switch bags once in a while?!
 
my mom lol, everytime she says something i just say that it's something that i bought way back but never used.

bf doesn't mind me buying lv but he says he'll never buy me one. he doesnt like me using coach though, it's weirdd
 
My next door neighbor. I adore her but she thinks she must regularly remind me how we have the "same bag, but she got a great deal!". Hers is a TERRIBLE FAKE!! YUCK!!
 
my friends... they always point out that thy could never spend that much money on a bag... but they always seem quick to grab it and look at it... which gets VERY annoying!

My bf doesn't mind as long as i don't go over $800 ish... but if i do... watch out! lol
 
My DH-----he's $$$ conscious and constantly says the money would be better spent on the mortgage--- But he did just buy me a Tivoli PM! And... he thinks my Summit Drive and Berkely are "sharp" bags.:smile1:
 
No one really as I buy them with my own money.
But with MIL living with us, everytime I use one that she has not seen before or sees me coming home with an LV shopping bag I kinda get the look KWIM
Her idea of a bag is small awful patchwork vinyl bag, bought who knows how many years ago. We bought her a Coach bag years ago and she uses it maybe 2x a year on special occassions thinks it was way too expensive.
