Buying your first designer purse can be quite an experience. You first have to know what type of bag you're looking for as well as if the designer you're looking to purchase from has anything like it. Most of the time, you've already seen the bag that you want and it's just a matter of spending the money to get it. This is where the problem can be depending on if you have the money to purchase the bag or if you're going to try and find the same designer bag for half the price. The problem with finding designer bags for half the price is AUTHENTICITY. Authenticity comes with a price. If you want the good stuff then you have to spend good money. High Fashion is exactly that High Fashion and you have to pay to look the part. Sure you can look the part for less but does it feel as good as knowing for sure that what you have is truely authentic. The answer is NO. The high fashion designer bags that we all know are the Gucci, Fendi, Louis Vuitton, Chanel and Coach to name a few. There are noticeable differences in the real thing and the fake. The craftsmanship that goes into designer person are well above the work that is put into the fake designer bags. Things to look for: the materials and fabrics that are used by the manufactures of designers bags are top quality. The material is of good quality. If it's leather then the best leather is used, if fabric only the highest quality of that paticular fabric is used and if the fabric is printed then all the spacing or whatever design the designer is using at the time is all spaced and distributed evenly throughout the fabric. The quality of the stitching on a designer bag is sewn professionally with no skipped stiches or hanging strings. Everything about a designer bag is pretty much the same. The zippers are made of the finest quality as well as buckle and straps. Today it is getting harder and harder to spot the fakes because the knock off manufacturers are so good at duplicating a replica that you just may not be able to tell. I've seen some really good knock off bags but if you do your research or just purchase from the designer you can't go wrong. There are authorized dealers and websites that can sell designer bags but check them out first before purchasing. Ebay is another place to get a designer bag but make sure it says Authentic and the seller has positive post and contact information. With all that said, before purchasing your new designer purse make sure you get what you pay for. |
