While I don't think it's stunning the way an 18,000 dollar bag should be, these photos don't do it justice.

Companies usually buy the skin from farms where Crocodiles are often caught with huge hooks and wires and reeled in when they drown or become weakened from blood loss. A PETA undercover investigator at one of these farms in Florida, Gator Jungle, documented workers? smashing animals over the head with aluminum baseball bats and cutting through their spinal cords with steel chisels and hammers. Some alligators remained conscious and in agony for up to two hours. Be chic not ignorant. Please don’t be ignorant and don’t buy crocodile handbags.

Of course I didn't agree, they spent hundreds of euros a month on phone bills, alcohol & smoking, partying and cheap H&M clothes and never gave anything to charity. So I pointed that out to them. Honestly, Katy, do YOU save up to give to charity? Do you ever cut down on your spending to help others? Some people are just such hypocrites. By the way, I'm quite sure most people who have $18,000 lying around for a handbag are generous and wealthy enough to give some (or a lot) to charity, others, like me, have to save up for a handbag and actually have to work really hard (and still give to charity) but that just isn't your buisness. ^I’ve had this kind of reaction when I bought my chloe paddington – many of my class mates were like ‘you’d better give money to charity instead of spending so much on a handbag’.

I wonder if someone at least got to eat the crocodile meat after they took its skin to make this briefcase bag. Good point, Katy!
