I have always loved Gucci, especially their accessories. I have always wanted one of their bags but have never had one. Now, there is a new handbag with their logo (all over it!), which, on their site looks gorgeous. I say this because I am not actually sure I love it as much as I think. I do need to explain myself at this point.

A few month ago I plucked up the courage to enter one of their shops (I feel rather frightened by Designer’s shops) and had a look at several handbags I thought I was in love with. Well, it turns out I didn’t like them so much after all. Once I had them on my shoulder, for one reason or another I thought: do I want this bag so much I am willing to spend a fortune on it? Of course you already know the answer was no. In fact, I realised I wouldn’t have paid at all. I did not want any of them.

But now I have seen the new bag I am thinking again I wish I could own a Gucci handbag. This is it:

Gucci Lady web original GG canvas shoulder bag

It costs 1,300 Euros. Like all people who can’t normally afford this kind of price tag, I would like to have a logo bag. I’d like to think I want this kind of bag because I just happen to like the logo itself but I am not sure and I will never find out. It doesn’t matter, I don’t really care. I love this shape of handbag, the colours, the cool strap and the horse bit which Gucci is famous for and until recently, I had never bothered to find out if it actually had anything to do with horses!!!! It does!

I don’t know whether I will ever go to see it. I kind of do not want to miss out on this beauty, yet I wonder whether 1- I have the “balls” to enter that shop again 2 -should I really have something as expensive as that?

Will let you know if there are any developments.
