Happy birthday to you. I know what you mean about spending so much on a bag. Until recently, the most I had spent on a purse was $1000 and I thought that was a lot. I just crossed the $2000 mark with a new Bottega Veneta. I haven't told anyone how much....one of my friends asked me about it and said, "was it more than four." I misunderstood and thought she meant $4,000 but she was talking about $400! I didn't have the heart to tell her that my wallet itself was $700. It made me feel guilty but I got over it. That's why we have this Web board!!!
