The other day my mom in law gave me a gorgeous GUESS bag. I wore it twice and without a doubt got compliments on both occasions. This got me thinking about GUESS bags and their lust-worthy followers. I have quite a few bags, and although I love them all, there is just something about the GUESS bag that makes it stand out and totally irresistible.
I previously owned a very blingy, gold and black GUESS bag that, to be quite honest I couldn’t afford, but got it on my credit card in any case. In fact, I think I’m still paying it off!? Anyway, everywhere I went with my gorgeous bag, heads turned, jaws dropped and women complimented. When they weren’t telling me how gorgeous it was, I caught their eyes seducing every angle of my bag.
Sadly, the evil eye caught up with my favourite bag when the slider broke a few months later. I took it back to the store and was impressed when they offered me a brand new bag. Sadly they didn’t have the same style – so I settled for a simple black, doctor-type GUESS bag, also very blingy.
I now have two GUESS bags in my collection, and I often find myself eyeing out other GUESS bags every time I walk past a store that sells them. Im sure someone, somewhere has sprinkled lust-dust to make these bags so appealing. When chatting with a friend the other day, after drooling over her gorgeous, oversized GUESS bag, she told me that she put hers on a lay-by for three months, and it was worth every penny and the wait. She also had a tendency to hug her bag every time I looked it – I could definitely feel the love.
What is it about the GUESS bag that makes you lust after it so much?
GUESS Accessories and Brand manager Sandra Das Dores says “it’s because they are simply fantastic. GUESS bags are of the highest quality and simply put, they really are ‘statement eye-catching bags’. Whether it is over-sized and embellished or a sophisticated patent leather clutch, a GUESS bag will always get you noticed and it is the perfect accessory to complete any outfit!”

I love Guess bags, they are stylish and their range is impressive!
Lust dust indeed!
I have a total bag fetish. It is quite problematic. The way most women feel about shoes is how I feel about bags. The bag always fits!
I adore guess bags! But looking at what’s coming is just cruel! Now I’m going to be dreaming about number 1 till I can get my lust dust covered hands onto it! Too divine for words!
