Purses: Real Or Replica? by Joseph Davis 1970-01-01 00:59:59 A great designer handbag or purse is something everyone enjoys having to show off. These designer handbags simply exude style and are fabulous to own. The one thing about them that's less than fabulous is the price. A designer purse can be painfully expensive and many people simply do not have the kind of money necessary to buy a name brand bag.In fact the one thing that nearly everyone can agree on is that they don't like the price. Because they are in such high demand, and therefore are able to do so, original designer handbags come with a very high price tag. When absolutely every woman wants something, the people providing it can set the price as they please. Fortunately there is a way to get that coveted purse and not have to pay a fortune for it.Most of the time it is possible to buy a replica handbag that is almost indistinguishable from the designer purse. These great handbags cost much, much less than the real thing. The best part about them is that no one need ever know the Read more:Joseph

Buying a designer bag 1970-01-01 00:59:59 If you decided to buy an authentic designer bag, but do not want to pay the retail price you can always try to find good "deals" on the Internet. Auctioning websites such as e-bay offer a lot of authentic vintage designer bags. Although not all of them are really authentic. So here are a few advices on how to tell a fake from the real thing. - First of all, if you really are considering buying what somebody else is offering make sure you get a lot of pictures of the item. Some pictures should be real close up, so that you can see the stitches, the leather quality and so on. Do the homework, study what the real thing is supposed to look like on the official websites. (Louis Vuitton, for example, has close up pictures for most if not all of the items they offer.) - It is a big plus if the exact same model is still for sale in the official store, so please, study carefully what it looks like. You can either do it online, as I said before, or you can even go to the actual store Read more:Buying
Knockoffs. How about that? 1970-01-01 00:59:59 So, are you a bag freak, too? Don't your eyes just lit up every time you see an exclusive bag store? Don't you love checking out the most popular designer bags that all celebrities have? Don't you just love to stare at them for hours? Okay, I might have over exaggerated here a little bit, but I must say that I love the sight of a pretty handbag. When you are a teenager life is so easy and carefree. Okay, some might argue with that, but life really is much more simple when it comes down to fashion. Of course, you love shopping for new and pretty clothes, bags and shoes. But, unless you are from a rich family, you shop in ordinary stores and do not care much for designer brands. You see a pretty item and you buy it. Some of us stay like that for ever. Some, unfortunately, don't. We want things that are better, prettier and definitely much more expensive. Handbags are definitely not an exception. But what if we can't afford a real designer handbag? That is where the cheap k
Let me introduce myself.. 1970-01-01 00:59:59 This blog was inspired by the movie "Devil Wears Prada".I have always been interested in clothes, shoes, bags - you name it. Designer handbags became my obsession approximately a year ago. I started hating all these cheap knockoffs that seemed to become more and more popular. All that resulted in me saving up money (and since I am a student, it is not that easy to save up a lot of money) and buying my first real Louis Vuitton bag. And now I decided to share my interests with you, "people of the internet".So, enjoy! Read more:myself

bag with all its different sizes and colors has been the "it" bag for quite some time now. It is definitelly a good investment, the bag is of very hight quality and it is absolutely gorgeous.

It's in the Bag 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Combine your interest for purses with you interest for books! "It's in the Bag is a short, lively look at handbags—their history, their lure, and their emotional meaning. Gallagher invites us to explore one seemingly simple object's complex significance to the people who design, produce, market, assess, and use it. We meet high-profile designers who strive to combine talent, perfect timing, recognizable trademarks, personal charisma, and celebrity endorsements in the creation of a must-have "It" bag; fashion editors, the powerful tastemakers who shape our sensibility; psychologists who probe the purse's symbolism; and some very different women who express a range of attitudes about handbags, from an army major's antipathy to a collector's obsession."Source: http://www.amazon.com/Its-Bag-Purses-Reveal-Conceal/dp/0061137480/sr=1-5/qid=1163788880/ref=sr_1_5/002-6665798-8297663?ie=UTF8&s=books

Types of handbags 1970-01-01 00:59:59 In case you are not so familiar with bags (designer or non-designer), here is a little 101 by Cathy Feldman on the different bag types - name, style, look and feel.1. Shoulder Bag - A shoulder bag comes in many different sizes and shapes. They are usually larger, providing more space for essentials such as your wallet, books, makeup etc. Shoulder bags are meant only to be worn over the shoulder and provide a combination practicality and style in one handbag.2. Handheld Handbag - Handheld handbags are handbags which are designed to be held in the hand and no other way. They are usually smaller and provide less space than a shoulder bag. The difference between this form of bag and a clutch is that a handheld bag usually has a strap or handles. These types of bags are best suited for shopping or cruising around town...- Read the full article by Cathy Feldman-

Celebrities carrying fake designer bags? 1970-01-01 00:59:59 I found a thread at the Purseblog forum where the members were discussing celebrities carrying
fake bags. I am not good at telling whether a bag is fake or not unless I actually see it in real life or get loads of close up pictures, but some forum members are supposedly really good at identifying fakes. I was surprised when I saw all these pictures that they posted of celebrities carrying fake Louis Vuitton bags. First of all, I couldn't see that they were fake. Okay, some bags were actually obvious fakes, such as Anna Kournikova's Multicolor Louis Vuitton Speedy (she actually admitted to carrying a fake). But Paris and Nicky Hilton? Would they really carry fakes? I guess you could say that they are rich and careless and therefore do not pay as much attention to what they buy or how much it costs. But still.. Celebrities
? Fakes? I really do not know what to think of this. I refuse to believe that people that rich would buy a fake bag.
Celebrities = trash 1970-01-01 00:59:59 This post isn't about designer handbags or shoes, but I thought I'd post it anyways. Lately I've been getting more and more disgusted with celebrities. What is happening to them? Why are they dressing so badly and looking like trash? I constantly keep seeing Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears wearing shapeless torn clothes or having extremely bad hair days. They constantly look like they badly need a shower! I just want to scrub all this dirt and grease of Britney and Lindsay. Tara Reid seems to have cleaned up a little bit. But other celebrities just keep looking worse and worse. Don't they have enough money to hire stylists and hairdressers and what not? Don't they have mirrors at home? Even if they don't, can't they see pictures of themselves in the tabloids? I understand that they can't keep dressing up for the paparazzi cameras and they do want to be able to live normal lives, but I mean everyone should take showers and wear clean decent clothes. Even if it's sweatpants and Read more:Celebrities
Louis Vuitton - Sophie 1970-01-01 00:59:59 From what I've heard Louis
Vuitton has released this gorgeous bag named Sophie
to LV boutiques in Hawaii and Japan. There are rumors that this bag will be released in US and hopefully in Europe later on this year (supposedly, February). Haven't heard anything about Japan, but in Hawaii the bag is rather limited, so if you want one you will most likely have to put yourself down on the waiting list. The price of the bag is approximately $425. I haven't seen a bag as gorgeous as this one for quite some time. It was very clever of Louis Vuitton
to put the leather strap together with the chain one. It just looks so fabulous!Tags: Louis Vuitton, Sophie, designer handbags, photos, fashion, style, shopping
Designer inspired handbags 1970-01-01 00:59:59 There are many fakes out there (that are illegal and support terrorism and what not), but there are also a lot of absolutely legal handbags that are designer inspired. These can also be pretty expensive themselves as they can be of really high quality. Besso, for instance, makes really nice motorcycle bags inspired by Balenciaga. Lush makes quite nice handbags with padlocks inspired by Chloe Paddington bags. But when I saw this handbag, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Sorry, I mean I didn't know whether it was a Balenciaga or Paddington inspired. I'm speechless! Read more:Designer
Cameron Diaz Style 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Cameron Diaz is beautiful, smart and funny. What else can a girl want? She also has a very good sense of style (or a really good stylist!).

Simple and yet so beautiful. Read more:Cameron
