When I buy a purse--less than one per year because they tend to last for awhile--I spend about 19.99. Thank you, JC Penney's!

That's supposed to read (15 and eighteen) above without the emoticon. For some reason, I cannot edit it out of the text. Every time I type an eight, I get the emoticon!
I bought an almost new coach bag at a yardsale of a rich Smith College student for $12. And yep...it was the real deal, tags, and cleaning instructions were still in the pocket.

If you are going about your everyday business, bags don't matter much. But if you hob-nob with influential people, power lunches and all that--bags are noticed.

We've got some weird built-in thing as humans for status and hierarchy.
