Lil and Kiek on a bag hunt
in Milan

Here at the editorial office, we firmly believe that purchasing a designer bag is an investment for life. The order? First save up hard for it, then consider the model a hundred times, almost go knock-out from the excitement, and when you finally feel that you truly deserve it; just do it. Life is short, my friends. And okay, maybe not everyone thinks this way, but then I suggest you this article read a bit and trust me: after that, you'll be convinced. I think. You can't really call this ‘just’ shopping. Buying a new child is a moment in itself.

Now the die-hard Amayzine reader surely knows that Lil and I were in Milan a few weeks ago for Fashion Week. And it wasn't just about the fashion on the catwalks, I can tell you that, but also in the shop windows. For months we had been talking about ‘the purchase of purchases’ and so I couldn't resist hopping into the Gucci store. With sweaty armpits and a rapidly beating heart, of course, but that doesn't sound cool at all and you especially don't let the salespeople notice. Lil had her sights set on a piece from Saint Laurent and you know what: we filmed it all for you just for the fun of it. So you could still be a little part of it. And okay, maybe you'll understand the bag ritual a bit more then. WE ARE MOTHERS MY GOD!
