Hands down an ugly fake Marc Jacobs stam purchased for me from a friend off of eBay. Had to explain to her the virtue of authentication!

Ya the worst thing is having to politely explain to a friend or family that fakes are not o.k.. I have been called some mean things by people who don't get it. So I tell people " don't try to buy me a bag, get me something you love instead, not something you THINK I'll love."
 
A Dooney & Bourke charms bag, which was a similar knock off to the LV Murakami bags. It had a weird smell and the quality felt cheap for the price. I ended up returning it the next day.
 

Why didn't you like the Peek a Boo?? I've thought about purchasing one! I'd love to know your take on it!

For me, my biggest bag disappointment was a Coach satchel. It was black and silver Lurex jacquard C fabric and it just seemed cheap. Not only that, but the zipper was a pain and it was heavy because of all the chunky hardware.

Also, after only about a month of use, the fabric started fraying and it drove me insane.
 
The wort bag was a S.W.O.R.D satchel I got from shopbop. In the picture, it was a lovely grey color, looked like a Hermes Birkin for young people (you know with a cool edge). In person, it turned out to be too huge, too slouchy, and the leather was too distressed. Also, for the price I paid, I expected the bag to have a lining and at least one inner pocket but it didn't. A very costly mistake and I never use that bag :( . It's neither beautiful nor practical.
 
Two bags, for opposite reasons:
1. Kooba, large cognac tote, beautiful leather, but too big and too heavy
2. Small Mulberry Bayswater, too small to hold even everyday things.
 
For me I would say, Marc Jacob Memphis Stams..is the most heavier handbag in my entire life. It weights about 6 lbs I know... Can you believe that??? 6 lbs (O_o)" Everytime I carry this bag for shopping trip I always wanted to go home because of how heavy the bag is~~~!!!
