I'm craving a new bag from Tiffany's

I want a bag from Tiffany's new handbag line.  Yes, I realize they are mostly about marketing.  Yes, I realize that $500 for a bag is ridiculous.  Yes, I realize that I don't go anyplace to warrant wearing a Tiffany bag on my arm.  But I WANT ONE.

Intellectually I get it.  But there is something magical about the simple, generic-ish designs that makes me WANT one. 

That magic, for me, is Tiffany blue.  I am in love with the Tiffany blue color.  I love it so much I want to eat it.  It's creamy and sweet on it's matte-finished smooth boxes and I want some of it on top of pure vanilla ice cream.  But my biggest problem with Tiffany's has been that I could never WEAR the color, I could never OWN the color.  Because all of their jewelry is either silver or gold.  Not Tiffany blue.

But that has all changed now.  The game is on.  And I want a Tiffany blue handbag to go with my Metalicious jewelry.

I would carry the Morgan clutch to all the fancy dinner parties I imagine myself going to.  Look at how the baguette 'gems' give it a modern feel:

And the TRT: Tiffany Reversible Tote would become my son's new diaper bag plus I could bring home that baguette loaf for dinner.  Who cares that it's only large enough to carry a big wallet?  I clearly have one to be able to afford it.  *sashays away*


Maybe if I carried both of the above bags PLUS this Avenue Shopper Tote I could fit a diaper.  Or the baguette.  Or a pair of Christian Laboutins.  Or maybe it would become a tiny beach bag.


*sigh*  Thank you for indulging my whimsical trip to if-I-was-a-gazillionaire land!  What are YOU craving?
