We all learned a little more about ourselves when we read this, right?

I love my Coach bag. Really, I do. It will always be special to me, and for many different reasons. It was my first purse ‘splurge.’ And – even though it took several months for me to finally bite the bullet, so to speak, and actually spend the money, I have to say that I have absolutely no regrets.

Since it was bought with money from my book royalties, this bag will always be somewhat special to me. If the day ever comes when I no longer carry it, you can rest assured that it will have a permanent, cushy home somewhere in the depths of my closet. It will be with me for life.

Having said all this, imagine my surprise a few weeks ago, when a friend of mine purchased The Bag’s cousin! How can I say this….I think I may have experienced a moment of bag envy! And then, of course, I immediately felt shame that I had even let myself give the cousin a second glance…

I love my bag. Really,  I do.

But it has some really good-looking relatives too!
