Now that I’m in the “real world”, I’ve noticed that I’m a lot more into purses. Not to say that I wasn’t into purses before that (because I was), but I think I’ve grown more appreciate of nice bags that will last for years to come. Basically, I’m a girl who wants a closet full of designer handbags. Is this realistic? No. But now that I’m out of college and making money, I’m willing to shell out some money for a well-made, professional bag. Proof: I bought this Rebecca Minkoff tote for work, and have used it everyday since. Sure, designer bags are pretty, but a lot of times they’re also constructed well and can last a lifetime if you take good care of them. This has been and will continue to be my justification for why I support a nice handbag. Below are just a few (of the many) that have recently caught my eye (and are threatening to take my next commission). Stay strong, Olivia. Stay strong.
Top: Tory Burch, Kate Spade, Tory Burch
Bottom: Fendi, Jimmy Choo, Gucci
I agree! I just recently purchased a new Kate Spade tote for work and I couldn’t be happier with my investment! I am a true believer in the right bag for an interview. For my very first ‘career’ interview my bag (at the time a Coach Gigi tote) actually acted as an ice breaker to connect me with my interviewer. You never know where it will get you!
Have fun planning your next purchase 🙂

Great selections! That Fendi is on my dream list. 😀 It is definitely true that high quality handbags can last for years and years. And if it’s something that you use every day, it makes sense to buy something you really like!
Gaaaah I have been drooling over that Fendi for months!

I think once I start getting a big girl paycheck I am also going to get my first “big girl” purse.
These are sooo beautiful! The tiny red Tory Burch totally stole my heart ^^
