Style replica AAA handbags

It’s been a while since we had a good ol’ fashioned bashing of an insultingly overpriced Versace bag, and as they say, there’s no time like the present. So let’s talk about the Versace Rose-Embellished Jacquard Hobo, shall we?I know you guys enjoy this as much as I do.

Between the black fabric and the cheap-looking silver-and-black roses that look like they were attached with a safety pin, this bag looks like it was manufactured by Guess or XOXO and is meant to be sold to thirteen-year-olds in the juniors department at Macy’s. And maybe it’s just me, but I think the patent trim at the bottom is really what does it in, juxtaposed with the fabric that makes up the body.

Now, there’s nothing inherently wrong with looking like one of those brands – I remember being thirteen myself and thinking those bags were so awesome – except that this bag is made by a major Italian design house that’s known the world over and intended to be sold to grown women with sizable checking accounts. It simply doesn’t hold up to the standard that we should all have for $1800 bags – oh, didn’t I mention that? That’s how much this bag costs.

You know, I didn’t really expect Yves Saint Laurent to go along with the stud trend. Their bags are so consistently understated and sleek that I didn’t think they’d subscribe to such an edgy and obvious trend, but I was wrong, and very happily so.

The Yves Saint Laurent Studded Satchel is a trendy bag with a decidedly refined touch.

The base of the bag is one that we’re all very familiar with – YSL has done a million and one things with it over the past few seasons and has produced more iterations than I’ve been able to keep track of (the stamped sequin version has been my favorite until now). It follows logically that if they were going to chase a trend, they’d do it with this bag as the root of the design, since it’s the shape that they use as a canvas most often. Instead of spreading the studs throughout the bag, they’re all concentrated on the stitched Y-shape in the middle of the bag, and they’re not the studs that we’ve been seeing from other designers for fall. Instead of grungy looking and industrial, they’re smooth, flat, shiny silver circles that fit easily into the minimalist bags that we’ve seen from them lately.

They’ve taken the trend and made it their own, and I’d love to have this bag in my closet.

Last week I had the opportunity to attend the West Coast Launch Party for Zara Terez Handbags. In fact, this was my first official event since I myself have moved to the West Coast. As I pulled up to the Mondrian Hotel on Sunset Blvd I was beyond excited. Representing Purse Blog, I was invited up to the Penthouse for a private pre-party where I got to meet the talented and gorgeous Zara.

Walking into the penthouse, my eye didn’t know where to look first: at the gorgeous LA skyline or at the table full of handbags and accessories. Luckily the way the room was set up, I could do both. I perused the table of handbags and found countless pieces I wanted to make mine.

Zara’s handbags are statement pieces, bags that will turn heads, receive comments and complete your outfit. Each bag boasts intricate detailing and clear thought and consideration when finalizing the bag.

Slowly but surely various publicists, stylists, models and celebs also began trickling into the private pre-party. More than anything I was beyond eager to sit back and watch other people’s reactions. I watched how each person eyed the bags and accessories, how some gravitated to a particular bag while others went towards a completely different look. Yet each person had one thing in common, they found a bag that they loved, not liked, but LOVED. I have to say I was right there with them.

As the pre-party wrapped up, we all headed to the super posh Sky Bar for the rest of the event. Paparazzi snapped images and grabbed film as everyone filtered into the party. Another fabulous feature had to be the encased Zara Terez handbags that adorned the party area. Lights hit the bags perfectly and continued to catch not only my eye but the eye of almost every other party goer in attendance.

I am honored that I had the opportunity to attend the event, meet the designer AND introduce this fabulous line of handbags to all of our readers. The images below are just some of the many in attendance. Make sure to check out Zara’s handbags and let us know what you think!

Some Bagista’s quiver at the sound of “vintage Chanel” in hopes of finding a one of a kind piece to add to their collection, or simply to admire a lovely well cared for accessory.

This quilted leather Chanel is said to be from the 80’s and for the time being, it appears to be in such great condition. The barrel shaped shoulder bag suspends from Chanel’s signature double chained leather straps and deep gold hardware can be found decoring this piece. Chic logoed C’s are found at its exterior sides and dyed grained leather lines it’s interior. Small and cute, this Chanel would make the perfect accessory to any formal outfit. With a rare piece like this comes a pretty steep price tag, you can purchase this Vintage Chanel for $2,750.
