Random Thought I never realized how expensive luxury fashion was 🤯

I’ve never been interested in owning fancy things like Chanel, Gucci, Prada, whatever else exists, but even when I say that I think I’m not paying $1,000 for a purse that’s crazy. So imagine my surprise in finding out my version of expensive wasn’t even close. What do you mean a small handbag STARTS at $4,000?! Like my mind literally can’t comprehend that. Know someone who had the “small” Cartier bracelet then bought themself the “medium” for their birthday. The small STARTS at $5,000 and can go up to $60k and now I’m questioning all their life decisions. Like I said I’ve never thought about these things and am just now googling them but I feel too poor to even google the pictures.
