Givenchy!

I am sooooo excited about this! I finally bought a Givenchy handbag. I have wanted this bag for a few years now and in October of this year, I set my mind on it and began saving! I am a self confessed shopaholic, I love to buy new makeup, clothes, everything! I just love to shop, so saving for this bag was very hard. I know people will think I am crazy for buying this bag but I love it, i'm so happy with it and I work very hard. When you work hard you deserve a treat and mine was a designer handbag. 

From a young age I have loved high fashion and designer items. I would never have a fake of anything. My first designer item was a hand me down Louis Vuitton purse from my auntie and I carried it everywhere, I must of been 11! Then in high school I got a Michael Kors watch for Christmas, they wasn't popular when I got mine. Then for my 18th birthday my mum and dad bought me my first Mulberry bag, it was a small bag but a classic bag and I think that is the most important thing when your buying a designer item. You want something that is classic and timeless, that you will have forever. Then this year after working hard at prom season (a very busy time for any makeup artist) I bought myself a Moschino belt again a classic item that I will have forever! Like I said I have always loved expensive things, if you want nice things you have to work hard to have them. This bag is the most expensive thing I own and I bought it myself, it symbolises hard work. When I look at this bag I know I worked hard it get it and I am proud of that! So let me show it to you!

This is the Givenchy Medium Antigona bag. It is a classic Givenchy piece. Net-a-porter call it an essential! It is so so beautiful! It's a big bag, which I personally like because I tend to carry my life in my handbag! It's a good sturdy bag, it will be perfect to travel with as it can fit everything you need in! Even though it says 'medium' it is the biggest size in the Antigona range, I got the smooth leather, it has pale gold details to it. I preferred the smooth leather to the grainy leather, and the grainy has silver hard wear and I don't really wear silver. But each to there own. The smooth one was the one I saw two years ago and that was the one I had my heart set on. I would love a nude/tan one in the future but let's not be greedy. I love designer bags/items and I always have, this bag has definitely given me the bug to buy more! I always knew I liked nice things, and I knew that I wanted nice things, so I work hard to earn the money to buy myself the things I love and want. I think there is nothing wrong with that. I have never just been handed money, I like to work for my money, so when you buy something you have to work and save for it means a lot more! 

I know some people won't understand why I bought this and i'm aware it's very expensive but I am so happy, I get so giddy when I look at it. It makes me want to work harder because it shows me that hard work pays off! 

I bought mine from Selfridges.
