Bonus gets paid out soon and I want to buy myself a "happy bonus to me" gift before I sock most of the rest of it away in boring MM stuff.
If you were going to treat yourself to a celebratory handbag right now, what would you get? I'm woefully out of the loop on these things so please help me day dream
Bonus points for medium-sized black shoulder bags, but definitely doesn't need to be that.
PS congrats on your bonus! This was a long time coming with the timing of the switch, right?
Oh yes, long time coming -- world's smallest violin, but budget wasn't really balanced last year with significant pay cut + no bonus. Good news is that my company did very well last year so bonus is quite a bit bigger than expected. So I should also mention that this is a fuck you law firm/best revenge is living well present too
That said, it need not be extravagant -- just want something pretty and more fun than, say, IRA contributions!
It does come in black and there is a strap (although, I personally do not like to use the strap that comes with actual handbags, but I believe I'm in the minority in that respect). I also like the 3 Jours and Trois-Jours style, but they don't offer straps. Congrats on your bonus.

I just had to quote to say that I like this so much. Unfortunately, I have no suggestions as my law firm is still doing the fucking.
I have this bag and absolutely love it. It was a birthday present to myself a few years ago.
I'm totally jealous! I think someday it might be a celebration of debt payoff or promotion, or anytime I can justify spending the money. Can I ask which size you have and what you think of the size?
I'm not a big handbag person, but I really want something sophisticated and professional for work, especially when I go away for conferences. I've been eyeing some Tumi bags, actually.

I have the MM...big enough to carry all my stuff for work if needed--files, tablet, etc, but not so big that my stuff gets completely lost.
The PM was just a little too small for me, and the GM was too big for me.

I love the Fendi Peekaboo. I'll get that in black someday...

It's over my pay grade, but I love it! I would not be at all mad if someone gave it to me with a Karlito charm lol.
