Are Designer Handbags Good Value?

By Lee MacRae

Women today, young and old alike, want to create a stylish statement to the world at large. And one of the ways to complete a fashion statement is a great handbag by a designer like Hermes or Sydney Love. But one of the worries is the money you have to pay to buy one. Are they worth the money?

If money is not an issue, then the question is mute. But for those who want to get the most bang for their buck, you want to be sure that DKNY purse is going to last. The good news here is that most designer handbags use only the very best materials such as leather. Leathers will give your handbag a great appearance and will last a long time as leather resists abrasion and handling very well. Leathers that are top quality grill so extremely supple. If you look inside a handbag and can hear the material cracking, put it back!

No doubt part of the cost is the name of the designer. But it is also true that you're going to pay for quality when you buy a name brand product. Top-of-the-line designer handbags by Baby Phat or Vivienne Westwood use only the very best leathers.

Here is a good thing to know, top leather handbags have a fine lining material as well. The cheaper products will not have that. Makers of cheap products are always looking to lower the costs. Cheaper handbags have low-grade linings and low grade hardware on them. You're wasting your money. Full grain leather products are made from top grade natural hides without imperfections. Top grain leather's are extremely long wearing. It is extremely durable and over time, develops a rich patina that increases natural beauty. Full-grained handbags are usually created from the hides of young cattle and are highly sought after due to their fine quality and smooth texture.

So is it worth it to purchase a leather bag made by Brighton or Sydney Love? Yes, yes, yes! You'll be getting a fine quality product that will finish off your outfit perfectly.

Robbins designer's got the funk for a beautiful ending

"Hot tranny mess" may have been the catchphrase on Bravo's "Project Runway" last season thanks to winner Christian Siriano, but if Robbins native Terri Stevens has anything to say about it, "funkin' beautiful" will enter the pop-culture lexicon in a big way.
