So my fiancé said he wants to buy me a really expensive handbag, I can either choose just one, or get a couple...all for the maximum amount of $2000. He told me to start looking around online to get an idea of what I want, but I´m kinda lost.

The only expensive bag I own is a Louis Vuitton Monogram canvas pochette, and I have kinda decided that I don´t want another LV bag. It´s classic and all, but not very "me".

And I definitely do want a signature bag/bags, after all if it´s that expensive I want people to see that it´s not from H&M or something

Any suggestions? What would you do if you were in my shoes? Get one, expensive, classic signature bag or a couple of cheaper, funkier ones?

 
I love high end bags so I'd get one of those.

I love Balenciaga, Chloe and Miu Miu bags. Bluefly and eluxurybags have good discounts so I'd check there too.

Well I honestly plan to stay under $2000 cause I hate him spending so much money on me. But he is set on the idea of getting me an expensive purse, so I´m not gonna argue with him

thanks for the suggestions, I will check out those websites. I really like the Spybag, but what if it´s out in a year from now? Plus, this one is being faked so much by now
 
You're so lucky your man is willing to buy you a pricey bag

ha!
Andi, I think if you're gunna spend that kinda money then what you buy has got to be a classic and something that won't go out of fashion quickly.

If it were me I'd go for something like this:

nevertheless that is really sweet of him

hope u find a nice bag!

 
First....how lucky are you that your man is wiling to spend 2000 bucks for a purse of your choice!!

Second....I myself would pick a Chanel, Dior or another LV. Or you could get a bunch of Coach bags.

 
I wouldnt buy such an expensive bag that soon not even if someone else is willing to buy it for me, I would much rather buy a bunch of clothing and some cheaper bags to build out my wardrobe :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

BUT if I have to choose, it would be a LV monogram, a big one or big mulberry bag, I especially love their latest collection, dont know the name....

But I looove mulberry and LV

 
thanks for the input, everyone. So far I haven´t found a bag that I´d consider perfect enough to spend $2000 on, so right now I´m thinking of getting a couple of things...definitely a Juicy Couture bag+earrings, Guess bag, and some clothes. I have been kinda bored with my wardrobe lately so maybe it´s a better idea to buy new clothes. And some makeup of course. Hopefully the fiancé will be ok with this

I think I´d also be very afraid of someone stealing a very expensive bag from me. Also, the only brands that do bags that are really "me" are Guess and Juicy Couture, and luckily those aren´t really high end. Well, Juicy is, but it´s still nothing compared to what Dior, LV bags etc cost

This bad is amazingly beautifull.! Not the ad or anything but that bag is so cute, flashy but not over bearing.Not sure the $ of it but man I would soo get that.

 
$2000! that's so difficult. I mean, that is way more expensive than anything I've ever spent on a bag, but not enough for, say, a hermes birkin. I would looooove a birkin. Or, a kelly even. But they're outrageously expensive. (The kelly wallet starts at over $2200! eek!)

I'm really not much help, I think I'm like you, I wouldn't feel comfortable carrying around such an expensive bag.

 
Oh wow, you lucky girl! Perhaps get something classic, like a Chanel?

Your idea of mixing it up and getting a few cheaper bags and some clothes sounds good to me. I'm no help either!

xoxmonicaxox - I just looked it up, that bag is $500 and comes in quite a few colours too! Dooney & Bourke: Patent Leather The Hayden Bag

 
Oooh that price isint too bad ! Id save for it.. hahah take a while tho cuz when I have money its spenttt . lol

 
I would get a Coach bag for sure! I like them way better than Guess. To me, Guess seems so 1990's! I don't know why!! Maybe I can't get that little triangle butt patch out of my mind! LOL Or maybe it's because I see so many Guess bags at Ross for like $30, that makes them lose their appeal!
