limits

Do you ever feel that even if you have the money, and could afford it, you refuse to spend more than X amount on a particular item just out of principle, no matter how much you like it? Or if you have the money and like it, you just buy it? If you have limits (for jeans, bags, coats, etc) what are they?

For example, I saw a beautiful burberry tote but it's Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon and even though we can afford it, I still can't bring myself to spend that kind of money on a bag

I don't feel that way if I really love something.

I want to tell you that I have 2 Burberry bags and they have held up beautifully! They still look brand new and are so much more lightwieght than my LV and Coach bags. They were both well worth it.

If it makes you happy than go for it.

Re: limits

Even if i was a gazillionarire I don't think I would invest in the 600 - 700 dollar shoes. But hey,who knows with that kind of $$$ I may change my mind.

That being said I am not oppsed to spending up to $300 on them even now.

As for bags, I would buy a Birkin or two.... because they are timeless imo.

Now I will spend up to 1K on a classic bag that love and I can carry for 5-10 years. I think it actually saves me $$$ because I am not out buying 100 bs bags that are quiet right.
