“Social media in general has made it easy for people to feel inferior about their lives…”

“I have to ask myself whether I want a bag because I’ll love it and use it, or if I want it because I’ve seen other people with it and want to keep up”

“Now that I have broken into the world of Hermès, I completely understand the obsession and cannot wait to add more to my collection”

“For me it’s the pieces that mean the most to me because of memories…those are bags I will never get rid of”

“Now I try to stick to what I consider classic styles that I can wear for a while”

“I had this false illusion that you had to wear wealth to get somewhere in life”

“I walk down Madison Avenue…and it’s there I see NYC women with the latest bags, both classic and trendy. Lots of inspiration just on the streets”

“Quality over quantity has become my motto when it comes to all fashion choices”

“I buy things to use them and accidents happen when you’re running around a crowded city”

“I love the research behind getting a new bag and the anticipation. It’s almost like a night out, the getting ready part is sometimes more fun than the night itself!”

“I have spent years curating my collection and only purchasing what I truly love”

“I’m more of a buy it and figure out how I’ll afford it after person”
