I know. Me too. Such a milestone!!![]()
adorable! And if you got the big preston, you can go ahead and send me your alpine moss borough since you clearly don't need it anymore! <snicker>
Aw. Well, I did the same thing last summer and my girl was 15, nearly 16.
I really wanted to get her a Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC. I just thought, "No, don't. She doesn't know the difference." And she didn't.
I was on all the buying sites several times a day when one evening the bag was marked down on Amazon to $137 so I snapped it up.
She loves it and it's a great looking bag. Nice leather and silver hardware. I love her bag (and I do have some MACs!).
Then she spied a Coach wristlet last September. It was a flight bag wristlet, in mirrored metallic /peachy color. But at $148 I thought I just shouldn't buy it for her on a whim.
But I did order it for her-- for Christmas. That, and a Coach leather cross body with chain (raspberry leather). I cannot recall its name, but she she loved them all.
Today, her 12 year old sister appeared carrying a new black shoulder bag. I asked where she got that? It was quite cute but I hadn't seen it before.
Turns out her sister, my older daughter, had passed it on to her.
I asked where it had come from and why did she give it to Maggie? It was really cute.
"I got it at Body Central last year," she told me, "but I only wear designer bags now."
Uh-oh.
I did this
