I think it's stupid. When I see all the dumb stuff women waste money on. It makes my head hurt.
But it's not abnormal. Can't really get mad. If your interested in fashion and that's what keeps you happy then keep dropping obscene amounts of money on those weird products.
But I will say I have a lot more respect for women who don't always go with real, designers and just go with whatever works for them. There are certain aspects of it that I can understand but I still think it's a huge waste of money.
That they're stupid. Why spend a shit ton of money that does the same exact job of something that may only cost a few dollars somewhere else. I don't care how much disposable income someone has, if they are spending a shit ton of money on something when there is an alternative that is extremely cheaper then they're stupid. I feel the same exact way about those idiots that spend $100+ on shoes just because they are Jordans. I could easily buy 5 pairs of shoes for the same price that do the exact same job.
I dont even own a expensive designer handbag. You can buy better handbags for a lower price somewhere else. Why do I need a designer handbag anyway? Just to show off and flaunt that you own and can afford an exclusive one? Other than that reason i see no reason to buy a expensive one
For me I just don't get it: I'll spend the money on something cute but not THAT much. However if you have the money girl you are entitled to spend it however you want.
It's a huge waste of money. You can get 10 awesome bags for the same price. You are just buying the label... not very smart
s I can't afford to spend that on a bag i don't really like the look of those types of bags much luckily anyway :)

If that's your thing, and you can cover your bills and aren't going into debt to buy them, it's fine. It's OK to spend some of your own money on something you like as long as you are responsible otherwise.
Objectively, those bags are insanely overpriced, but most fashion is. But, one responsible splurge a year is not really a problem.
Don't see the point. You are really paying for the brand, not the bag itself. But if you can sell it for a similar or higher price then it's fine.
Once a year? I've had the same backpack for over 11 years! And it's still in good condition. Needs a wash, but there is nothing broken, torn, or worn out.
I find it a ridiculous waste of money. all you're paying for is a name most times the quality isn't any better than something from Walmart and the like. my wife thankfully feels the same as me. purchasing designer stuff shows a lack of understanding of the value of how hard it is to actually earn the money needed to buy that junk anyway. and I do mean junk.
For you, the value of a product is in its name. For us, the value of a product is in its usefulness and quality. Unless if your $500 purse has extra pockets or waterproof seams, then I can't understand the point in buying it when you can buy a $50 one of the same quality.
I think its retarded, no offence. I've been there. I once bought a pair of 500$ jeans. Loved them but 3 years later i threw them away. Crotch full of holes from everyday use. Not worth it. You can get a ton of better stuff for a lot less and never get bored or go out of fashion.
i dont mind, i do realize that some of the exclusive things cost more and are nowhere else to be found except that brand
if its a real investment and she will use it, yes then why not?
id spend money on exclusive pieces if its not avalaible anywhere else
like those Gucci embroidered jeans
Most men here dont understand or just dont have any fashion sense
I immediately start calculating in my head what kind of fun holiday could be bought with the same money. If it makes her happy, then whatever but I am not going to judge her if she does not have an expensive handbag. I think they are frivolous.
Kind of a little red flag for me. I'd rather want a girl who doesn't waste her money that way. But at any rate, I don't care what they buy so long as it's their own money that they waste.
i do it lol. i think if you have the money then why not?
You asked for opinions. Here's mine. Buying expensive bags, clothes, cars, pickup trucks, etc. is a waste of money and an attempt to cover personality defects.
Wifey has several - I buy them for her. She likes them. She also has LOTS of diamonds.
If I can spend $$$$ on motorcycles she can have a few frikkin hand bags. :)
They are a complete waste of money. It is just a name. But if that is what she likes, and she works, then I have no issue with it.
I think they don't have a better place to spend or have as much as they can't spend or may be it's their better place of spending.
In any case, I don't think much, it's neither my money nor I want it.
I have no opinion on what you do, madam.
I just know the woman I marry won't throw money down the toilet with both hands.
Everyone has their thing they spend their extra money on. If she's handling her financial responsibilities and she wants to shell out the money on an expensive bag, i'm all for it! :)
It's a stupid waste of money and I would have serious doubts about sharing my financial future with someone who doesn't know the value of money.
Why aimlessly waste money on a bag because of its name... after all, it's only purpose is literally to hold items. The money saved on an expensive purse can be put towards something better, like a car haha
I'd think "this bitch ain't coming within 100 feet of my credit card or any financial account that has my name on it".
I can't be bothered with girls like that, if it gets serious and she pisses money up the wall on stuff like that then it'll annoy me.
