Why do women spend hundreds of dollars on designer purses?

Question

Seriously! What a waste of money.

Answer 1

I've always wondered that as well. I mean, it's not worth the money, and they're usually UGLY too! I don't get it

Answer 2

I don't know. there was a woman in the hospital for x-rays. She didn't want to leave her Louis Vitton (sp?) purse in the locker of the dressing room so she brought it to the exam room with her. Now this purse was suppose to be $300 or something like that. Her shoes on the other hand were lucky to cost $5 from the local dollar store.

I could think of better ways to spend my money. Like another tattoo or something that really matters. Can't steal my tats!!

Answer 3

some women are ghetto rich and spend more than they can afford because they yearn to be one of the "elite" snobby crowd,who always think that others are just jealous of them,whenever questioned about their expenses.they're probably the same women who flock to buy must-have designer purses or designer clothes/accessories or whatever it is that celebrities like jessica simpson or paris hilton are wearing.even women whom can afford the lifestyle but copy whatever designer is the latest hollywood trend,aren't really trendy & unique but rather the opposite,a herd of sheep that follows the crowd.i think those(not just women,men included),who mainly care about designer items look fake&tacky and are too self-conscious about image.it's one thing to look prim & proper yet practical,which is me but spending a couple hundred dollars on a single purse and making yourself a free walking advertisent for the company makes them look like a jacka**.it's not just a waste of money but you can tell what some of their top priorities are.ironically,i know some people like this lol

Answer 4

it truly is a standing image ingredient. i don't understand. i'd under no circumstances do it. I purely bypass to Marshalls and locate quite a few distinct handbags that look astounding for an similar value they are going to spend on one. some each and every individual is purely inspired by technique of brand call names. My sister virtually offered a Michael Kors handbag at Macy's till we regarded at it heavily and observed that it became made in China.

Answer 5

Hahaha! Good one ! My daughter-in-law is begging people to buy her a $400 purse for her bday. To me, it's just a friggin' purse ! Maybe because they don't spend money on cars like mostly guys ?

Answer 6

I love my Dooney and Bourke bag and you can't have it.

The quality is superior too. I've had it for over a year and it looks brand new. Now, I don't understand those people who pay $700-$1500 for a purse though. That's extreme. Mine was less than $200.

Answer 7

Sometimes it's needed to raise ur image.

There's some community who u wouldn't like to wear non-branded things.. such as if u attend a high-class community like party which the guests r the high-class, r u sure u r going to wear cheap things?? I'm sure u not.

Anyway, why not wasting money sometimes?? It do feels good.

Answer 8

i have no idea! ask my mom! my mom buys me an expensive purse all the time and im like mom u wasted this oney on this when we could of used this money to go out eating wit?

Answer 9

Frivolous fashion Statement/Trend

Answer 10

i wish i knew. guess i'm glad i don't though. i keep my money and my license in my pocket and i feel that is all i need to take with me. funny if you'd look in those purses there is probably less than the value in them

Answer 11

To be the one in style. I only wish I had the money to do that, but I could certainly find a better use for it!
