DonnaKaranPurpleBag.jpgThe bags that I most have a craving for aren't the flashy, glitzy, jaw dropping ones, strangely enough, but ones like this. I think a beautifully made bag with gorgeous quality, deeply coloured leather is more attractive to me then a Judith Leiber masterpiece.

This amazing plum example is a Donna Karan, and is so practical, I bet you could fit everything in there! The Crosstown leather messenger bag is £1,065, which, okay, may be a bit steep. The biggest weapon a girl has when it comes to justifying an extravagant purchase is that nugget, 'price per wear'. As I would happily use this bag forever and ever, I think that roughly works out to 0.152p per wear, yes?

Bargain.
