Christmas Past: Dooney & Bourke

I'm married to one of the cheapest people I know. He doesn't like to spend money and he only makes two exceptions to that rule.

He's addicted to smokeless tobacco and wastes...um...spends $60+ a month on it.

He also loves spoiling me. For two out of the three Christmases we've been together, I've been the receiptent of a designer purse.

I'll be honest the Coach purse just intimidated me. I was going to keep it in the closet, in the sleeping bag, and only carry it on special occasions. Mr. Right nicely told me that he didn't pay that much for me to have a designer bag in my cloest. He bought it for me to carry and enjoy.

I'm getting more use to it all the time, but it is still a little small for everyday use. (I don't even wanna know what the bigger Coach bags cost!)

His follow up gift the next Christmas? A Dooney & Bourke handbag.

This one is a little more practical because:

*I know it wasn't as expensive.
*Its bigger.
*I'm out of bullet points but the other two looked so lonely.



Please forgive the PJs.
And the hair.
And the lack of makeup.

I love the purse because it makes me feel rich and pampered. I love the purse because it is durable and I don't have to worry about it wearing out. But mostly, I love the purse because it reminds me how much my hubs thinks of me.
