Want But Can’t Have: Alexander Wang Bag

CC: Hi Bag, I love you. What’s your name?

Bag: Diego.  I know, I’m hard not to love.  BTW, how cool am I?

CC: Beyond.  I need you.  How much do you cost?

Bag: About $800.

…and scene.  I’ve been obsessing over this bag and I couldn’t quite put my finger on why. I mean don’t get me wrong, I kill for A. Wang but  I’m not the biggest fan of bucket (formerly known as drawstring) bags.

And then it hit me like a lightening bolt!  My first “designer” bag was a hunter green, Dooney & Bourke mini-drawstring bag that I got for my 10th birthday on a trip to New York ….ok, ok it was purchased on a train trip to Connecticut that originated in NYC and ended at the D&B outlet.  I was a CheapChica from very early on but the point is, this style has a dear place in my heart!

Anyway, I’m totally obsessed with this style and have started putting away all my extra money and change (I heart Penny Arcades!) to try and save up enough to buy it for my upcoming 30th b-day because I need it to make all of my clothes instantly cooler…the way only a bag of this stature can! 
But in the meantime or if/when I don’t save up enough to buy it, I can satiate my bag thirst with these awesome budget buys…and so can you!
