    I’m glad you’ve got the strength, because you need to start carrying that bag all the time – it is gorgeous, and you’ve never be caught without something you need.

    It’s amazing, so so nice. Love giant bags, love leopard, logically, I must love giant leopard bags…Just kidding, that’s not a logical argument at all. But i do love giant leopard bags.

    Since you described it as bigger than a breadbox, the question becomes: How many baguettes can you fit in your Prada?

    Fabulous bag – are both dogs inside it?

    I’ll never be able to give up my giant bags! And good point on the working out. Probably the only reason why I work out is to be able to carry my big bags and walk in high heels. J/k! Lol!

    Should you ever go through a minimalism moment, I will gladly take that bag off your hands. No offense to Mr. B., of course.
