Every now and then I get an urge for a nice purse ($200-$400). I have some nice Cole Haan, Coach, Kate Spade, Michael Kors and Gucci bags. The Cole Haan and Gucci bags are more traditional/classic while the rest tend to be trendy. I also have some cheaper bus from Coles and a fake Louie that I got a a flea market. I'm not a bag person but find that I spend more on bags now then I used to. However, I don't think I could ever spend $1000 on a bag, even if I had the money. Many people I work with (I work in Manhattan) have beautiful bags but I's rather spend my money on bikes and gear
