If you had $3,000 to SHOP ...

Let’s play pretend for a minute.

SCENARIO: You’re a personal shopper working for a 19-year-old snooty pampered little brat who’s been placed on a budget (at last). She’s now only allowed to buy 3 handbags until December 2007. This of course could mean social suicide since her and her family’s entire circle of friends consists of plastics. So you must be wise & choose **must-haves of this year or classics **that will definitely NOT go out of style.

ASSIGNMENT: You’ve been given US $3000 to buy 3 designer handbags* and a minimum of 2 shoes**. If you can manage to buy two matching shoes (that don’t neccessarily have to be of the same brand and type as the handbags though that’s preferable) and more, you’ll be rewarded with an extra US $1000 by her father.

  • Designer Handbags limited to Fendi, Dior, Prada, Tod’s, YSL, Bottega Veneta, Valentino, Versace, Chanel, *Louis Vuitton *(if you have another brand in mind, do mention it and I’ll let you know if we can include that in the list).

  • As for shoes, you have the above options along with Manolo Blahnik, Jimmy Choo, and as with the bags, any preapproved (by yours truly) additional brands.

I WILL GRADE YOU. YOU CAN EARN POINTS BY:

  1. Mentioning correct name of style/code/type.
  2. Adding more than one picture.
  3. Color/Silhouette Choice (based on my personal taste)
  4. Popularity of Particular Style
  5. Having at least one of the three bags be Chanel, Vuitton, or Bottega.
    … I’ll add to this list.
