  • Happy Handbags

         While I'm waiting for the pictures to be uploaded, and following the epicure assessment of Europe, is the Paris Shopping recap.

    I'm generally not a handbag person... okay, I'm a closeted handbag person. I really couldn't help splurging on bags in Paris. At the quintessential French leather shop, LV, I picked up the Beverly bag for my mom.

     

    JC's mother and got the Madeleine bag in Black. Grandma liked the bag, so we got her one too!

    From Longchamp, the mom's also got the Le Pliage (Medium Tote), and we picked up a bunch for the cousins and aunts the Le Pliage Handbag. It was so much fun picking out the colors. We got one of each color below except for yellow and brown. The green one is my favorite. Looking back I should've gotten one for myself.

    I'm not the total altruist. I was on a hunt for a little leather shop at 233 Rue Saint-Honore. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find my bag online. I was in the shop for 20 minutes when this baby of a Goyard came home with me:

    I am officially DONE with my spending, and I'm now into super savings mode. NO MORE SPENDING!
