What would you buy for $400?

[NewportJenni]

For mothers day my husband bought me a pair of Louboutins

He says I can get a purse too but I have a $400, maybe $500 if its super fabulous! What would you buy? Any suggestions?

The BEST $400-and-under bag I have ever purchased is the Isabella Fiore "Audra" (the 2005 original version). The retail was $385 but unfortunately it's long sold-out and the 2006 versions (albeit more expensive) are not nearly as nice.

I think there's actually somebody selling their 2005 Audra in brown in the WTS section.....if that's still available it would be a great deal!....especially considering how eBay prices for '05 "original" IF Audras have really skyrocketed.

DKNY has some nice bags for $400 or less:

Coach has some nice bags- you could get 2 huge ones at the outlets for that price.

Thank you for the infomation on Gerard Darel bags! I wasn't familiar with his bags-the Charlotte is absolutely beautiful! I want one!!!!
I wonder, if Bergdorf doesn't have the bags on their website, who else (legitimately) sells them on the web?

At this stage in the season, I would hold on for a bit longer and hope to get an $800 - $1,000 (or even $1,500 - if you're really lucky!) designer bag in the sales!
