My weight has fluctuated quite a bit over the past few years (after having lost massive amounts of weight), but my bags always, always fit and that gives me a feeling of comfort and confidence.
happy & excited! though i hope no one notices my bags, i also feel a little self conscious carrying designer bags.
... and as part of a personal experiment in trying to combat 'white coat syndrome', I raised my new Will Leather Goods Hazel deerskin bag to my nose and took a long whiff while my blood pressure was being taken. My blood pressure dropped enough to calm my doctor down.
So that's how my bag makes me feel...
Nope, not pathetic at all. Honest, self reflective, humble, and with a great sense of humour.Carrying my favourite bags makes me feel confident and happy.
When I carry my designer bags, however, I think that they make me feel like I'm worth something, you know? I've been bullied so much in my life and I'm not a very pretty person so carrying the right bag makes me think "stuff the lot of ya, my bag and I can conquer the world!" lol.
...Come to think of it, what I just wrote makes me sound really pathetic, doesn't it :rain:![]()
