Those last few months are brutal, so you definitely deserve a reward.&nbsp;I did the same thing when I&nbsp;finished mine about a year and a half ago. After&nbsp;I got home from celebrating, I ordered myself a&nbsp;Kate Spade satchel I'd had my eye on&nbsp;for months -&nbsp;I even splurged on overnight shipping.&nbsp;Mine is on the smaller size, but they have other options in your price range. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/handbag-shopping-suggestions#post-1036225 Sun, 22 Sep 2013 17:44:37 +0000 merwoman 1036225@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations Megan - that's a huge accomplishment.<br />I know it's outside your price range, but I'm thinking you need a Chanel bag to crown this achievement. Will last forever. White - since you're heading into summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/handbag-shopping-suggestions#post-1036222 Sun, 22 Sep 2013 17:30:03 +0000 Adelfa 1036222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In that price range I would look at Rebecca Minkoff, Marc Jacobs, Brahmin.... also Coach but I can't figure out how to save their pics. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/handbag-shopping-suggestions#post-1036221 Sun, 22 Sep 2013 17:28:00 +0000 catgirl 1036221@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm biased because I just bought Rae's Brahmin and LOVE it... I'm not a bag gal but this bag makes me googly-eyed.&nbsp; It's durable and well made and seems like it will last for the rest of my life.&nbsp; Check out the current styles - within your budget and well worth it for the price!</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/sr?keyword=brahmin&amp;origin=keywordsearch&amp;contextualcategoryid=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/sr?k.....tegoryid=0</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/handbag-shopping-suggestions#post-1036213 Sun, 22 Sep 2013 17:19:45 +0000 Peri 1036213@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not a bag girl, but congrats!

I don't have a huge budget so was thinking around the $500 mark.&nbsp;</p> <p>I currently have a Michael Kors large Hamilton tote. I'd like something a bit smaller- mid size rather than large.&nbsp;</p> <p>It's heading into spring here in Aus so I'd like a lighter colour.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'd appreciate any suggestions :)&nbsp; </p>
