That is an unbelievable deal for the prettiest Kristin hobo there is. I just bought this and didnt get that kind of deal and I've had more compliments on it than any of my LV bags. This sounds more like he doesn't like it than finances. If that is the case, please don't let him dictate your style. This is the bag that brought me back to
coach after 10 years. It's gorgeous. If it was me, and it's not really the finances (and honestly it sounds more like it's just he doesn't like it) I would keep a gorgeous bag. Don't let anyone, husband or otherwise, dictate your style. This is a beautiful, slouchy bag in a gorgeous color that will draw admiring glances and compliments and will just get better and better. It is my favorite of any bag out by coach right now. I was kind of anti-coach and an LV girl until I saw this bag and it drew me in like no other. It's beautiful. You got it for a steal! To me, this particular bag brings me back to the gorgeous leather and quality of the coach I remember from years ago. I've only had mine a few weeks, but have had more compliments when using it than some of my bags that were over $1,000. I'm planning on a black one as well, but the light brown one is by far my favorite. Men have odd ideas on bags sometimes. My ex hated all LV bags, Chanel and BV.
To get this bag at 50% off, when it's do gorgeous and you've been wanting it so long, is one of those opportunities that may not come again. Another thing to think about too is -if it's not the finances (and it sounds more like a guy who just doesn't like a bag), how will it affect you emotionally and consequently your relationship, if you do let him dictate to you your taste and style? Those kinds of things build up and resentment builds and as a woman, we can gradually lose our self-esteem. If your worried a bit about the finances, offer to cut back for a few weeks. Pack lunches to work, don't shop or eat out for a month or two. I'd hold onto that beautiful bag though if you can. Deals like that just don't come on holy Grail bags. This is one that was worth full price and I'm picky. I was blessed to be able to get 30% off due to new friend. 50% off is amazing. Tell your hubby you'll cut back for a bit. It would be one of those regret forever things if you return though and I'm afraid the niggling resentment might not be good for your relationship, for you. Even in marriage, we need to still feel pretty, and have little special things. I worry more about the kind of emotional running down of a woman involved in words like "that thing" to talk about a bag a husband knows hiscwife loves and just bought. What happened to thinking about your loved ones feelings and excitement? Try talking to him, offer to cut back if need be, but you got a gorgeous iconic coach bag you've wanted for a long time. Keep!!
. When I read those stories on the forum it makes me mad. I'm not married yet, but my longtime bf sure as hell doesn't tell me not to buy a purse unless he knows it's going to cause me some kind of financial problem. I understand that if you're sharing finances and need to pay the bills and whatnot it's a different story, but if that bag is something you really wanted, who gives a hoot what your husband thinks. A purse causing marriage issues? No offense, but that's a bigger underlying issue.
