Purple Star emoji 43 items

The Handbags I’d Lose My Mind Over

The handbags I admire, screenshot, revisit and then remind myself that I have bills to pay. 😂 Designer, beautiful and absolutely not necessary — but if one of these appeared under the Christmas tree, I would completely lose my mind.

Now THIS is why I created a section called The Handbags I’d Lose My Mind Over. 😂 I absolutely love the Coach Tabby — it has that gorgeous classic shape that isn't going to look dated five minutes after you've spent the money on it, and the 36 is big...
Tabby 36 Medium Leather Shoulder Bag

Right, we've gone from “I'd really like that handbag” to “I've apparently won the lottery.” 😂 But LOOK at it. Black quilted Saint Laurent with that gorgeous gold YSL hardware — it's classic, a little bit rock-and-roll and exactly my kind of bag. If ...

Oh COME ON — it's burgundy Prada with a tiny matching bag attached to it. What exactly was I supposed to do, scroll past? 😂 I love that this isn't overly dressy or precious either. It's got that slightly sportier, edgier look that I'd genuinely wear...

Okay, we're definitely not buying this because we need somewhere practical to carry the weekly shop. 😂 This is basically a gorgeous little piece of Bottega art that happens to hold a few things. I LOVE the woven leather and that knot detail — it's u...

And HERE we go — the first of what I suspect will be many leopard-print things on this wish list. 😂 I love leopard print in fashion, bags, shoes… basically give me half a chance and I'll find somewhere to put it. This Zadig & Voltaire clutch has...
Rock II Metallic Leopard Print Leather Clutch
 
colleen donegan profile picture
I LITERALLY just warned you there'd be more leopard print. 😂🐆 This one is completely different from the Zadig & Voltaire though — that one's rockier and metallic, whereas this gorgeous calf-hair clutch is proper statement leopard. I'd wear some...
Leopard Print Calf Hair Envelope Clutch

Okay, THIS might be the leopard-print bag to beat. 🐆😂 Saint Laurent, pony hair, big enough to actually carry my life around in AND covered in leopard print. What more do you want from me? I'd wear this with the simplest outfit imaginable — black tr...

Well, apparently millionaire me now needs a Christian Louboutin clutch too. 😂 I always immediately think of the shoes when I hear Louboutin, but this Paloma is SO good. It's the sort of bag I'd bring out when I actually make an effort and want one g...

Everyone needs a pink handbag moment, okay? 😂 I've been looking for the right one on Etsy and haven't found it yet, so naturally the next logical step is… Prada. Completely reasonable escalation. And I LOVE that this is a proper pop of pink — I'd we...

Perfumes I’d LOVE to Find Under the Tree

You already know I love smelly things, so naturally my fantasy wish list requires some ridiculously gorgeous perfume. 😂 These are the bottles I'd LOVE to unwrap — beautiful fragrances that feel extra special, indulgent or just a little harder to jus...

One of my clients — who also happens to be my one and only posh friend 😂 — wore this and I have to say, it smells genuinely DIVINE. Proper “what perfume are you wearing?” territory. So this isn’t me being sucked in by a fancy bottle or Victoria Beck...

colleen donegan profile picture
I genuinely LOVE this perfume. Whenever I'm at the airport, I spray it before I go away and then again when I come home because, let's face it, a sample is about as much Bal d'Afrique as I'm normally prepared to afford. 😂 But in my imaginary life? O...

Well, obviously my imaginary millionaire perfume collection needs CHANEL. 😂 I already love CHANEL fragrances, so this isn't me throwing something on the List just because the bottle looks expensive — although let's face it, that certainly doesn't hu...

If you’ve seen my other perfume List, you’ll already know this is my number-one fragrance at the moment. So if money is no object, why would I ask for a little bottle? 😂 Give me the biggest one you can find! And look — it even matches my Dolce &...
Dolce & Gabanna Your Devotion Eau de Parfum Intense

Beauty Splurges I Can’t Quite Justify

The beauty products and gadgets that make me think ‘Ohhh, I REALLY want that’ immediately followed by ‘Do I actually need it though?’ 😂 Probably not. But this is a fantasy wish list, so we're ignoring sensible thoughts like that.

Look, it's got GOLD PEPTIDES, okay? Do I know precisely what gold peptides are? Not really. 😂 But it's Dolce & Gabbana, the packaging is gorgeous and apparently my millionaire skincare routine now involves a $170 pot of face cream. At that price...

For My Home, Obviously

Of COURSE my dream wish list has a home section. 😂 Give me a beautiful appliance, clever bit of tech, gorgeous interior piece or completely unnecessary kitchen upgrade and I'm happy. These are the home splurges I'd love to own if the budget wasn't g...
