Since the Dot COM Boom in the late 90s,
the Internet has slowly taken over the way people
in society live, work and play. The days of endlessly pouring over a
textbook to find a hidden answer are long gone as you can simply "Google
it" (or "bing it" depending on your preference). I
often marvel at how my Dad managed to get a degree without Google
scholar or even Wikipedia. Thanks to the geniuses behind YouTube we can
now procrastinate for hours on end watching sometimes completely random
and irrelevant videos.
Now I freely admit I am an addict. I am addicted to what’s in my bag/ purse videos.* Why you may ask, well the answer is more complex, so much so that even I am not entirely sure why I watch them, because quite frankly why would anyone want to sit for 10-14 minutes and see the contents of another’s handbag, receipts and random hair ties included. However the top viewed what’s in my bag video, by Blair of the Elle and Blair Fowler YouTube fame, has clocked up almost 3 million views leading me to come to the conclusion that there is something fascinating about how others fill and use their bags and obviously I am not the only one watching this strange YouTube Tag.
My handbag obsession was what first introduced me to What's in my bag videos as I was scouring YouTube for various handbag reviews and came across a what's in my bag/review, that was only the beginning, soon I was routinely searching YouTube for updated what's in my bag. After watching copious videos, my wish list for different handbags was so long that I could not keep track. So I have decided to document my various fashion wants and wishes in this blog, yes I am jumping on the blogging bandwagon and have decided to name it the most obvious thing I could possibly come up with (I was the type of child that named my first ever pet goldfish fish, creative I know).

Now I have finished babbling about myself, I
want to know about you what are you fashion wants and wishes? Please comment
leaving a link to your favorite what’s in my bags on YouTube or if you have
done one of your own I would love to see it as I am always on the lookout for new
what’s in my bags I haven’t seen (I did say I’m addicted) My next few posts
will be about my purchasing goals over the summer and my major wishes.
If
only I was as witty as the writers of gossip girl I would have written a clever
exit to my post, oh well maybe next time

*I am also addicted to Epic Rap Battles Of History on YouTube but that is a entirely different post!
