It’s ok to like expensive handbags..

Have you heard of A.P.C? My friend at work sent me a link to a jacket he was looking and I thought it would have been rude not to check out what else A.P.C had to offer. This my friends was a very silly mistake. I now have a list of (expensive) things I want from A.P.C which doesn’t really go hand in hand with upgrading my camera because that raises a little cash money situation. One of the items I can’t stop thinking about is this shoulder bag, it’s white and navy which is a classic colour combination and the shape is beautiful. However at €265 I don’t think this is something I should be lusting after especially as I am pretty sure I could find something very similar but vintage. I actually had an all navy bag in a similar style which I wore till it broke, it was vintage and cost only £2.

I don’t think it’s wrong to lust after expensive handbags, watches, camera or whatever your chosen thing is. We all have different priorities as to what we spend our money on and everyone is entitled to do that. I see so many haters on Youtube leaving horrible comments on vlogs asking where they get their money from or why they spend it on certain things. I think that everyone can spend the money they earn on whatever they want. There are things I would never dream of spending large amounts of money on – but you might. I am into photography and I wouldn’t think twice about purchasing the Canon 5d Mark iii (if I had the money) and if all of a sudden I find I get some more freelance work in and can afford the A.P.C shoulder bag then I would be very likely to buy it. In the world of Prettygeentea you can do what you want. However, the truth is I don’t have the money to buy these things right now and I don’t do credit cards. My plan is to work hard and then I will be able to treat myself.

Stop hating on the vloggers.

I love A.P.C too! I have a few items of clothing by them, all pretty much bought in the Net a Porter sales. I’d stalk it until then, they tend to have 80% in July and January. I want to save for my first designer bag too, it’s no one else’s business what I do with my money. I earn it, so I’ll spend it!

Hear hear! There is indeed TOO much hate on the blog network (though not as much as the love, obvs!), people should just respect how people feel about purchases. Personally, I wouldn’t spend over £50 on a bag unless I won the lottery, and then even then I’d be hard-pressed, but who’s to say that’s unacceptable if it’s their choice? If I were to spend loads of money on CDs or going out or holidays… surely they would be equally “bad”? ♥ Claire @ Jazzpad

Never heard of this brand before but that is one pretty bag. I lust for expensive things too, but when it comes to actually buying them I cant bring myself to drop down that kind of cash.

I think it’s your money your choice, I don’t know why people feel the need to hate on people. I see it so much on you tube, people have to put in a disclaimer now! Crazy. I think if you want the bag, than go for it. I always feel guilty when i spend money, it’s horrid I feel good that I have saved and purchased, than think crap I should have saved the money. Oh well xx

I will never understand why people on the internet go around hating on others, if you dont like someones vlog/blog than dont watch it or read it, so simple!
That bag is so sweet, its definitely nice to look at expensive things just important to live within your means which means I do alot of looking rather than buying.

I love this bag. I think whilst you are responsible with your money, don’t get yourself into debt over it, as that is major problem in this society, I think it’s down to the individual. I could get into whole debate about this, but it’s neither here or there, nor do I condole trolls or any type of bullying.
