*huggles mommy*

It's an Authentic Vera Bradley purse if anyone is wondering. My mom got it at a discount :).

:D

[Kalei]

Awwwww It's adorable! I just love the pink and black and the cute elephants:D Your mom is definatley a great mommy:D

Very cute Bri. I got a Vera Bradley purse for my birthday as well and almost got that same print except they did not have it the style purse I liked.

[Marigold2]

How very special your mom is. I know those purses cost a lot and she must have been saving her pennies, nickles and dimes for a long time. Enjoy the purse, it's as lovely as you.

[Roxyluvsme13]

Thanks! :D

I could just squeeze my mom, lol.

Amber, what print is yours?

[gemini9961]

This is the one I have.

I LOVE Vera Bradley!! That was really sweet of your mom.

[CathyBogart]

It's beautiful! What a nice gift!

[BC_MoM]

That's very nice! And a pricey bag (I'd never pay that much for ANY bag... :o )

[Roxyluvsme13]

Yours is cute, Amber! I've already fallen in love with another one online :o. Apparently the woman my mom got this one from goes online with her daughter and they buy them from like Ebay or something and then resell them for discounted prices. My mom's going to see if she can find the one I like online.

I don't think they're really all that expensive compared to some others that I own, :p. My Dooney and Bourkes (which I got a couple of years ago might I add) were $225 and $145. :o

Maybe it's a good thing we've never met, then. People who waste money on accessories like that really get my knickers in a knot.

Ah, well, I don't really consider it "wasting" money. I love my designer purses but I can also be happy with a simple $5 purse from Wal-Mart.

[BC_MoM]

lol, well, when you look at it this way:

Spending that money on vet care for your pets instead of purses

Then it IS wasting money. ;)

Well, it's not my choice as to how my mom spends her money. The purses were gifts after all. And you also have to remember this was before Lily, Skye, and Gizzie. At the time we only had Roxy and our money situation was a WHOLE lot better.

I LOVE it Bri! I'm not a fan of expensive purses myself, but I really can see myself wearing this. I loved the cute elephant print that it has. You said that it is for some sort of cancer awareness right? Well good for the purse! :p Anyway, I love it!

Please don't start an argument over the price of these purses that she got years go, before she had the financial issues that she's having now. They were gifts from her mother. If you have anything bad to say regarding her purses, please take it to PM.

What arguement? Suddenly a discussion is called an arguement? :D

[dogzr#1]

xD Well, no. But I had a feeling that it might turn into one, bringing her finances into it and all. As well as past threads that have turned into arguments. I just didn't want another of Bri's threads to turn into an argument is all. She just wants to share her new purse.

Happy birthday (in advance?), Bri!

Hehe, thanks.

It's still 19 days away. :p

Learner's permit! :D

What a great early birthday gift, Bri. :) I'm glad your mom made the extra effort to get you something special. You ARE special and deserve something nice. Happy "early" Birthday!

[Pawsitive Thinking]

The title of your thread made me smile - so glad you and your Mom seem to be getting back on an even keel again. Good luck to you both for the future :D

[JenBKR]

I am glad your mom was able to do that for you. Happy early birthday!

[Roxyluvsme13]

Thanks. :)

I'm totally in love with my purse. <33

[AdoreMyDogs]

I love that purse! I want it!!!!! :) Happy early birthday, Bri :)

[jennielynn1970]

Gotta love getting new purses and shoes!!

I'll admit that even if I'm on a budget, if I really really like a pair of shoes or a handbag, I will figure out a way to justify the expense, lol. Hey, we all deserve to have little luxuries. Some of us get very little of those in life.

Congrats Bri!! Your mom got you something very sweet and thoughtful! Who wants something practical on their birthday?! Not me, that's for sure!! (I had a boyfriend once who bought me an IRON for my birthday.. and brought his dress shirts up with him when he gave it to me. :eek: :mad: Can you guess how much longer THAT guy lasted?! :p ;) ).

Happy early birthday!!
