I'm not going to say I'm never going to pay a certain amount for anything. If I like something, wether it be a handbag or a toaster, and I have the money to pay for it and still be able to pay my bills then why not? Right now I can't afford anything over about $400 and that's pushing it because I'm about to start Grad school where I won't have much disposable income (okay so no income!). I hope to one day be able to afford a Chloe Paddington or a Spy or a genuine Croc bag. When I can afford them I will buy them because I like them and because it represents, on a certain level, that I'm proud of myself for accomplishing what I want to do and where I want to be in life.
