And honestly? I get it. They’re… well, they’re *accessible* luxury. You know? Like, you don’t need to sell a kidney to afford one (usually!). My sister, bless her heart, saved up for, like, *months* to get her first one. It was a little crossbody thing, I think. She thought she was the bee’s knees. And, okay, she kinda was! It looked pretty darn good on her.
But see, here’s where I get a little… meh. Michael Kors is EVERYWHERE. And that, for me, kinda cheapens it a little. I mean, don’t get me wrong, they’re usually well-made. But the sheer volume? It’s just…a lot.
Like, I saw this article (or maybe it was just an ad? On my phone? Ugh, can’t remember) for a *clear vinyl tote bag*. A CLEAR VINYL TOTE BAG! Michael Kors! I mean… seriously? What’s the point? Everyone can see everything! I guess, maybe, if you’re super organized and only carry aesthetically pleasing items? But let’s be real, most of us have a jumble of receipts, old lip balm, and that one pen that never works rattling around in our bags. A clear bag just screams “unorganized chaos!”
And then there are the “Bolsas de Ombro” and “Bolsas Transversais” and “Bolsas de Viagem” – all the different *types* of bags. It’s overwhelming! You go to the website, and it’s just a sea of leather and logos. Like, how do you even choose? It’s too much choice!
I guess what I’m trying to say is, Michael Kors purses are fine. They’re… *fine*. They’re a decent entry point into the world of designer handbags, and some of them are genuinely cute. But for me, the ubiquity, and the occasional… *questionable* design choice (that clear tote, I’m looking at you!), just makes them a little… eh. I’d rather save up a bit longer and get something that feels a little more… special.
