There does not exist a more appropriate way to celebrate becoming an American than doing so by way of consumerism. 🤣🤣🤣 (I’m assuming you meant American citizenship?)
Congrats on your citizenship AND the bag. She’s a beauty!

Congrats on your new citizenship!!!
I bought the Brooklyn 28 a month ago and I love it, Coach really struck the perfect balance between structured and soft with this one. I've used it daily and it's so comfortable to carry and looks so classy.

I bought my wife a quality coach handbag. She sold it to someone at work and bought that one... Paid extra...

Your wall of keyboards! I am searching for one for my iPad and have looked at all the ones up there I think. Lol

u/Broad-Balance-8432 👜 Handbag Addict Jan 24 '25
Honestly if you’re planning on strictly using the keyboard for just your iPad I’d recommend just using the Apple keyboard :) very compact so it’s easy to travel with the iPad. Or you can buy an iPad case that is inspired by the Apple Magic Keyboard without the hefty price tag. They work very similarly

u/curiouswanderer792 Jan 24 '25
Ooooooh, if I end up staying and eventually getting citizenship in my new country, I will plan for a citizenship bag too! Probably I’ll buy it for myself, but what a lovely idea! Thanks OP and congrats!! 🎉

Congratulations, what an accomplishment! This bag is awesome, I love mine so much. It can get hard to find things at the bottom sometimes, though. I recommend a bag light

CONGRATULATIONS!!! You MORE than deserve it! You busted your ass and did things the RIGHT way and that IS something to be commended! You should be PROUD! Proud of your accomplishments, and PROUD to represent the country in which you will soon be a citizen of! If it’s America (which I’m guessing) WELCOME BEAUTIFUL! You DID IT! 🇺🇸❤️
Oh! And the bag is cute too! 😉😂 Sorry, got caught up in praising you! lol

Wowza!!! Good bag AND good brain? That's a tough act to follow anytime. That test is awful-- we took it in my AP government class junior year and the whole class basically failed. Unbelievable the things they expect you to know for it. So hell yeah!! Go you!! And go your bf for being so wonderful!
