THAT Bag

I do not come here before you to tell you how to live your life. I have written stories and information that pertain to me with hopes of entertaining you. However, I must put my foot down on one thing that doesn't exactly pertain to me: that got damn Louis Vuitton bag.

You know exactly which one I'm talking about. That brown bag with the tan "LV" and tan designs that like the suits from a deck of cards and snowflakes. Now I know I haven't crossed dressed in awhile (2005 to be exact. And that one time in Cabo) but I do know a little about women's attire. I know that some shirts work better than others on a certain body while some can wear heels and some cannot. Don't even get me started on women's jeans...


I will admit, though, that when it comes to handbags and purses, my interest and knowledges diminishes. The fascination girls and women have with handbags and purses is something I will never understand. The classic line is always "you can never have too many". Um, yes you can. You can when you start to have no room to put them and ask guys to buy them for you. I don't know which is harder for me to understand with women: the fixation of purses and handbags or the lack of ability to go to the bathroom by one's self.

I cannot give advice on purses. I will give advice on that spring dress you want and I will on that pair of heels but purses I cannot. The damn thing dangles on your arm or you carry it in your hands for a few hours. You stuff a bunch of unnecessary sh*t inside it and then complain and ask why you can never find anything. Nope, I speak of nothing when it comes to this part.

But coming back to Louis. I cannot figure out what is so great bout this standard, lackluster bag. The colors of the bag, like Meg Ryan, are mediocre at best. The all over print of "LV" and wacky designs are too much on the eyes and take away from what the individual is wearing. Observers are drawn to the bag instead of the individual('s clothes). A bag should complement what a person is wearing, not take away from it.

I'm not positive, but I would be that a lot of people who own this bag (or looking to buy one), have it because it is "the bag" to have. It is everywhere. Everyone has the same one. Now, last time I checked, girls HATE when other girls have the same things. OK, you can't knock someone for getting the same company of jeans or the same color hair tie, but a purse? How does that look when a girl and her friend go out carrying the same Louis bag? Not good. Who wants to have the same bag as 200 million other people anyway?

If someone could let me know what is so sexy or great about this bag, please do so.

All I'm saying is you gotta throw in your own flavor and make it original.

Spice things up, ya digg?
