I know that there are plenty of Prada designer bag fans out there, but even if you generally love the creations of Miuccia Prada, surely you can agree that this latest Prada Pizzo S Satchel is a little OTT? Well, it seems I am out of line here because this bag is being rationed by major outlets. The retail price is $1950 and you can only order three copies each month, so there is clearly still a hungry market out there for this example of excessive sombre lace trims. The bag is made from nappa leather with a lace overlay covering the whole bag plus more black lace erupting along the length of the top. There is a zip closure, perfect for catching the lace every time you close the bag, and zipped pocket inside. Two grab handles on the top, and it measures 13″ wide x 7″ high. Perfect if you have a sad occasion to mark, I suppose. Or if you need acne treatment you can hide behind it.

What a closed little world I have been living in - writing about designer handbags, craving the latest addition to my accessories, the prices do not phase me even though I can only afford to buy ones in a blue moon. Yesterday I was flicking through a newspaper in the pub and there was a photo showing the price of everything the model was wearing - including her Prada Fairy Bag, priced at £1100. “HOW MUCH?” said my Mum in the way that only a Mother can. “It’s a Prada” I shrugged, but it made me think. How much hype have I been taking in when I don’t think the price is high? OK, the Prada handbag is made from buckskin and the printed fairy picture is a delight, but why is this limited edition bag able to sell at that price? Scarcity always makes us want something more: tell us we may not be able t buy the bag and we want it even more. Put us on a three month waiting list and we are the envy of our friends, so if I had a beautiful bag as worn by Tilda Swinton, Sienna Miller and Jennifer Love Hewitt, I would be pretty smug. And the price would just be a minor detail. After all, you could pay alot more for used Harleys.

Make sure you do not get left behind in the rush to get this year’s designer handbag. The best new editions are shown here:

Prada previewed the new Glace purse in the Autumn catwalk shows, and sales of this desirable bag are now limited to three per customer due to huge demand for the new bag. The reason for its allure are clear: the edgy Prada bag presses all the right style buttons with extra zippers, stud detailing and faded leather which combine to please women everywhere. alarm system monitoring

Because genuine designer handbags are priced well beyond the means of millions of women who would love to own an exclusive bag, many handbag manufacturers are now offering designer replica purses, which are remarkably good reproductions of the authentic designer handbags produced by the major fashion houses. Good quality replicas - sold as copies - are very affordable. The high quality and low price of these replica designer handbags combine to make imitation designer handbags immensely popular with women who crave the designer look on a budget. By Replica handbags I am talking about handbags which are sold as lookalikes of major names, NOT counterfeit designer handbags. As long as you know what you are buying, then you will be happy with your purchase. The terrible thing is that millions of ripoffs of designer bags, especially Louis Vuitton, are passed off on innocent customers as the real thing. In June 2008 eBay paid a fine of 20,000 Euros after court action by luxury goods designer Hermes for the online auction house’s role in the sale of three counterfeit handbags online. Theer are mnay warnings and guides posted on eBay to help you check whether your bag is authentic. The truth is, unless you buy from a retailer accredited by the designers, you cannot be sure whether your bag is authentic or a cheap copy.

Impress Others And Look Classy And Elegant
Women have found that carrying designer replica handbags is a great way to make a lasting impression on others, and can mean the difference between a merely attractive and absolutely stunning appearance at important occasions. There are a number of very compelling reasons why women should forget about struggling to afford the money for astronomically priced original designer bags in favour of designer replica handbags.

The original Fendi Bag was small, neat and held little more than a lipstick and mirror. In 1999 Prada brought out the Prada Bowling Bag, sometimes called the Bowler Handbag, at the other end of the scale. This is a bag designed to hold as much as you want to carry around, whether it is simply a copy of Heat magazine or something more intellectual, this handbag was designed to take it.
However for most women this was a bag that taxed the muscles a little too much. But regardless of its size and practicality, the Prada Bowling Bag remains a covetable classic designer handbag.
