5 Signs You Need a New Bag

5 Signs You Need a New Bag

We’ve all been in a bag rut before. When you end up using the same few bags over and over again, no matter the outfit or occasion. Your bag has become nothing but an afterthought – and where’s the fun in that? Here are five ways to tell it’s time for an update:

1. The bottom of your bag is stuffed with useless, crumpled receipts and gum wrappers. You obviously don’t love your bag anymore. Not even enough to clean it. And the most horrific sign that you don’t give a poo about your bag anymore: Putting it on the floor of a public restroom! When I see people do this, I literally let out an audible gasp.

2. You’ve stacked all your jeans on top of your bags in the closet. Remember those days when you had proud, prized bags that stood front and center? When those purchases start to shift to the losing end of your closet, it’s time to invest in a new treasure.

3. You show up to a family dinner and your 90-year-old grandma has the same bag as you. Perhaps it’s time to update.

4. You catch yourself with a pink bag and an orange top, and they don’t clash in a cool way. You’ve stopped caring about trying to coordinate.

5. You’ve lost focus on work and everything else because you’re daydreaming about the latest Chanel, Celine, Valentino, Chloé, or Fendi. Don’t waste any more of your precious time. Just give in and buy hermes birkin bags of your desire.
