I bought a fancy purse, because it looks like a bento box...

So there I was, having dinner with my lovely friends last Saturday---when I was coerced into buying a new purse.  Did I need a new purse?  No.  Did I want a new purse?  Depends on what it looks like.  Well, the purse in question was a Kate Spade design--and it had sushi (not real of course) all over it.

I went over my questions again.  Did I need a new purse?  No.  Did I want a new purse?  If it looks like a bento box, then yes.  Why? Because I love sushi and I love Kate Spade.  Is the purse on sale for 85%? Yes!  Sold to the Fancy Ginger, in the booth eating a chimichanga (yes, I bought the purse while at the restaurant....why wait)!?!?!!?

You guys, this purse/clutch is probably the most impractical thing I have ever bought.  It's obnoxious....yet beautiful.  Not unlike myself.  However, the Fancy Ginger has come to this conclusion---sometimes you need to buy things that are ridiculous.  If for no reason, other than to make you happy.

This purse can only fit my money, a tube of lip gloss and two sushi rolls--but it is perfect.  Now, did the fact that it was an impractical buy weigh on me?   Of course it did--and I know people will think this was a waste of money.  But, this purse represents me taking a step towards not caring what other people think.  I need to start doing things I want to do....and that includes buying pointless items.  Because in the end....they all have a point.

I turn 30 in a month....and I am beyond excited for this event.  I know a lot of people dread turning 30--but I see this as a new beginning.  I am so excited that I am going to be able to celebrate the way that I have always wanted to--going on a trip with my bestie, my best girlfriends here in town, and my sister!!!!!!

*****This post turned out a lot deeper than I thought it was going to....honestly I was just going to post about the amazingness that is my new purse/clutch......deep thoughts from a Fancy Ginger....who knew?*******

Also, I went on a lovely walk this morning and took a couple of pictures.  I am so excited that spring is finally deciding to make an appearance...aren't you?   

 Looking into town!  


Being a Fancy Ginger...

In other news-- I decided to buy a dress from Anthropologie that I have been eyeing for quite some time.  It FINALLY went on sale.  I will show it to you when I get it in.  I also bought a new spring-scented candle and a lip sheer from Anthropologie.  I think they are all being sent separately (I hate when that happens), so when they come in, I will do a little spring Anthropologie haul.   

 I am excited for my Birchbox and Ipsy deliveries that will be coming in the next week or so.  I LOVE GETTING MAIL!!!  Remember, if you would like to subscribe to Birchbox or Ipsy...they are only $10/month each--and they deliver fancy beauty products to your door every month.

I must be going--time to watch some quality television a la' "500 MPH Storm" on the SyFy channel. 

Cheers and stay fancy!!!
