ModCloth Full course load shoulder bag with vegan faux leather exterior

I don’t really have a need for a bag that will take me from my “early morning Lit Theory” class until my “evening Ethics class dismisses” at the moment but I still like the look of this bag.

Shoulder bag

The fact that it looks like real leather speaks to the quality I think.

Or am the only one thinking it looks like real leather? In that case I guess my statement speaks to my inability to spot fake leather a mile away” which gives away the truth about me. I’ve never owned a real leather bag in my life.

This bag from Modcloth is only $85. Full Course Load Bag purchase details

Lanvin washed silk off the shoulder dress with Giuseppe Zanotti Crisscross Suede Platform Sandals

This dress would look great on me; but I wouldn’t have any occasion to wear a dress that costs $1″ 615. I really think that designer things are outrageously and unnecessarily expensive. This is a gorgeous dress but why should it cost $1 615? Okay so it’s washed silk does that really and truly justify the price?

I know that for some people $1 615 is probably cheap but I’m not sure if I had millions I’d pay $1,615 for a dress. Maybe it’s my background and lifetime of poverty that makes me think this way. If I’d been born into wealth I might probably think differently.

An outfit to wear with the Crimson Red Suede Bede 2 D’orsay pumps from Jessica Simpson shoes

Not sure where one would wear this outfit. I was thinking of it as being a work outfit when I was putting it together but I’m not sure if it’s generally considered okay to wear red stilettos or a red leather jacket to work.

The top is a burgundy satin sleeveless blouse from The Row.

The skirt is a chocolate 100% goat suede skirt from Ralph Lauren.

The jacket is a Giorgio Brato red leather jacket.

The bag is a crocodile-embossed satchel from Michael Kors and the bracelet is a brown and red rosewood gold set fire agate cuff from The Branch.

It would cost you a total of $6 216 to get the top skirt bag bracelet and jacket. If you have that kind of money to spend on a single outfit I’m totally jealous of you. I can’t afford anything in this set.

Christian Louboutin Sweet charity Turquoise and brown calf leather shoulder bag

Christian Louboutin Sweet Charity leather shoulder bag

 

Just came across this Christian Louboutin Sweet charity Turquoise and brown calf leather shoulder bag. It’s a gorgeous bag. I love it. I want it; but it’s $1,495 so I can’t afford it.

This suggested outfit is a nice little summer outfit with brown shorts and a draped tube top.

The top is $119. The shorts are $29.99. The shoes are Chloe Marci Cork Wedge cognac leather sandals. They are $521.

The bracelet is a $790 Yves Saint Laurent Gold-plated stingray-effect chain bracelet. It’s a pretty bracelet but I wonder what justifies charging so much for something that is only gold plated.

This is a nice simple outfit. The nicest thing about it is that you can get everything in the set for a total of $303. Well you might be able to anyway. I personally can’t. As affordable as the items are generally speaking they are still out of my personal budget range. They are items from sheinside.com. I like the overall look of the outfit.

Bright pink and green floral dress with green shoes and Gucci Tigrette suede shoulder bag

Although I don’t know if I would actually wear this outfit I love the look of it.

Thank You!

I especially love the Gucci Tigrette suede shoulder bag; but it’s $1″ 375 so yeah I’ll keep dreaming. There’s something about the dress I really like; but then I’m kind of ambivalent. The thing I like most about the dress is also the thing I fear – bold bright color. No one will fail to notice you in a dress like that. It’s bright. It’s got all these big flowers all over it; it’s not a dress designed to help you blend into the background.

I don’t know I love bold bright colors but I’m afraid to wear them.

These are a pair of Giuseppe Zanotti 6 inch gladiator sandals in yellow suede upper. They cost $745 which appears to be a mark down from $930. I love the outfit idea built around them. Continue to love how great yellow and green look together if you pair the right shade of yellow with the right shade of green.

I actually had to view the dress up close to see the polka dots. You can’t really see the polka dots in the picture in the set. I couldn’t anyway. Once I zoomed in then I could see that it was indeed a polka dot dress. I love the color of the dress and how soft it looks. I can only imagine it must feel as soft as it looks being made of 100% silk.

I was looking for silk dresses and came across this yellow Emilio Pucci Beaded mesh dress. It’s a great looking dress but whoa on the price tag.

Citizen Chic Como Brigitte

I’m guessing if you can afford that dress you’re not living at my level on the socio-economic ladder. The dress is said to be made of mesh and to be heavily beaded. The silk part appears to be the bodice lining. This kind of purchase is nothing for mega rich women. Life’s unfair isn’t it. If I could get my hand on $13″,815 right now I’d feel like I’d just won a multi-million dollar lottery jackpot/

I have to say quite honestly I find it difficult to understand why clothing and shoes should ever cost more than some major household appliances.

I guess the point is they aren’t for you if you can’t afford them; and if you can afford them then the price tag probably doesn’t make your eyes pop the way it does for someone who has no money.
