See, and I understand that logic, but it's not for me. I get BORED with any bag that I have within a couple months and want a different one. It makes more sense for me to get a $30 or $40 bag (not usually Target, usually more like Kohl's) and get a new one every season. My dad bought me a wonderful handbag when he was traveling in Korea on business. It's eel skin with lambskin lining. It's unbelievably durable and a classic style. I carried it for a while, then really wanted something different. I keep it and bring it out every 3rd winter or so to use it again..lol. Then it goes back in storage for a few more years. I don't really care if mine fall apart quickly because I don't want them for long. (that's the same reason that I can't imagine getting a tattoo... I like change!)
