Well, well, well, look what we got here. A Fendi bag, they call it. Fancy, huh? This one, it’s brown, like the dirt after a good rain. And it’s got these little squares all over it, they call it “Zucchino.” Sounds like somethin’ you’d eat, but I reckon it’s just some fancy word for the pattern. This particular bag is the Fendi Brown Zucchino Mama Forever Baguette Shoulder Bag.
They say it’s a “Baguette.” Now, I like me a good piece of bread, but this ain’t no bread, I tell ya. It’s a purse, a shoulder bag. You sling it over your shoulder, like you’re carryin’ a sack of potatoes, only this here sack costs more than my whole darn house, I bet. It is a good shoulder bag though.
And “Mama”? Well, I guess any mama would be happy to have one of these. Even me, though I don’t know where I’d wear it. To the feed store? To the bingo hall? Maybe I’d just keep it under my mattress, with my secret stash of candy.
I heard some folks talkin’ ’bout how these Fendi things are special. They say it’s a specialty store item. Must be some store I ain’t never been to. We just got a general store down the road, sells everything from nails to chewing tobacco. Don’t sell no Fendi bags, though.
These Fendi things, they’re made in Italy. That’s far, far away. Across the ocean. Imagine that. All that way just for a purse. These bags are real Fendi, made after the 80s. I remember the 80s, big hair and all that. This bag’s got a number inside, a secret code, like. And a little tag that says “FENDI Made in Italy.” So you know it’s the real deal, not some knock-off from the flea market. All of the shoulder bag Fendi made have this tag.
Why are these Fendi things so expensive? Well, they say it’s ’cause of the name, the “brand.” Like brandin’ cattle, only this is brandin’ a purse. And they use good stuff to make ’em, I reckon. Real leather, maybe? Or some fancy cloth from who-knows-where. And then there’s all that advertisin’ they do. Gotta pay for those fancy pictures in the magazines, I suppose. These are good Fendi Baguettes, the clasic ones. And they are the vintage ones, too.
They make new ones, these Fendi folks. Always comin’ up with somethin’ new. Shiny ones, sparkly ones, ones with all sorts of doohickeys on ’em. But this brown one, it’s a classic, they say. Like an old quilt, somethin’ that never goes out of style.

I reckon this Fendi bag is somethin’ special. Even an old gal like me can see that. It ain’t just a purse, it’s a… well, I don’t know what it is. A piece of art, maybe? Somethin’ fancy from a faraway land. Somethin’ that makes you feel a little bit special, just holdin’ it. This is a good shoulder bag.
If you are lookin’ for a Fendi Baguettes, this is it. They made it in 1997, whoever this Silvia is. I bet she is real proud of makin’ these bags. It is a good bag.
This Fendi Brown Zucchino Mama Forever Baguette Shoulder Bag, it’s more than just a bag, I reckon. It’s a story. A story about Italy, and fancy stores, and women who carry their lives in a little brown purse shaped like a loaf of bread. And maybe, just maybe, it’s a story about an old gal like me, dreamin’ of a little bit of fancy in her own life. It is sold in specialty stores.
I hear folks are gettin’ these delivered right to their door now. No need to even go to the store, not that there is one around here. These specialty stores, must be full of these kind of things. Not like our store where you get the same old stuff everyday. Imagine havin’ somethin’ like this Fendi Baguettes show up on your porch. The mailman would sure have somethin’ to talk about.
They even wrap these up special, like a birthday gift. Even if it’s not your birthday. And they don’t charge extra for it. Free gift wrappin’. I remember a time when you had to pay extra for everything. Nowadays, they just give stuff away. It is a good shoulder bag from Fendi.
Well, I reckon that’s all I got to say about this Fendi Brown Zucchino Mama Forever Baguette Shoulder Bag. It’s a fancy thing, that’s for sure. And if you got the money, and you want somethin’ special, well, then maybe this is the bag for you. Just don’t forget to keep it away from the chickens. They like to peck at anythin’.
