Hope Ammen
A lot of rich people spend a lot of money on a lot of ugly things. Now if f I was a millionaire, I think I would buy only beautiful things. I am not a millionaire. However, there is a satisfaction in simply finding beautiful things. It's nearly as fun as having them. Just less expensive. So rather than filling my shopping cart with all these beautiful things, I will simply put them in Her Octopus Garden.

Sure beats a Wal-mart backpack

Thursday, July 22, 2010

This is a big decision, this whole 'looking for a bag for college' thing. This bag is going to hold the essentials of my life. This bag is going to contain the keys to my success: laptop, textbooks, binders, pens and pencils, snacks for class. This bag is going to be my everyday companion, the one thing I will always grab on my way out the door.

This bag is CRUCIAL.

And, if I had aaaaaaalll the money in the world, I would simply drop a few bucks on this one. Because it's beautiful. And it's from Fossil. And it looks vintage. And I love it.

Not that this one isn't cute or anything ; )

>>EDIT:

Actuuuually, this is the bag I reaaaallllyyy want. Seriously. I've had my eye on it for awhile now, and one of these days I'm just going to suck it up and get it. Unless I can successfully find a truly vintage, military bag from an army surplus store between now and then. The search is on.
