Bag Snob Exclusive! Bottega Veneta Paillette Hobo

bottegaveneta_ pailletteshobo.png

This bag has not been seen or featured in any other publication or website! Bottega Veneta decided to debut this latest must have with yours truly, Bag Snob. I mean, who else has the bottegaveneta_paillette_detail.pngsnobbiest and most discerning audience? =) It may look like a woven bag with sequins but don't let your eyes deceive you, the technique used to achieve this effect is mind blowing. Each leather square paillette is actually laser cut on the bag, they are not sewn on. The same process is used for each sequin. A layer of leather and sheet of acetate is adhered to the layer of woven leather. Next a laser precisely cuts the acetate into small square sequins. The same laser is then used to cut the underlying layer of leather into larger square paillettes. The panels are then carefully hand finished. Needless to say, not a lot were made, there is a limited run of only 250 pieces worldwide. This rounded hobo with the foldover closure is also a new style for Fall. It is absolutely perfect that such a novelty finish is done on a classic bag so that you can have glamour every day. And fit everything, at 12" high by 13.7" wide, you will never need another bag again! A brown version will be available shortly but the black is now in stores. You must go in to take a look in person,

Jennifer Aniston's Favorite Ferragamo


Jennifer Aniston has been sporting different designer bag and chanel handbags lately, and now she is on the set of her latest movie, Bounty Hunter with Gerard Butler, wearing the Mediterraneo Alce Satchel. Ferragamo suits her style, not fussy, trendy or edgy. She has a true classical sensibility, nothing too exciting or snazzy but she always looks sophisticated - clean and crisp (kinda like her diet, she has a great body but she works hard for it!). This satchel is a bit too conservative, almost briefcase like, but as you can see, it does slouch to give it some charm when carried. It is always fun to funk up an old fashioned piece, you get more grit from the contrast. Distressed jeans and crazy high feminine stilettos would be perfect! Great option for those who have a job that requires strict professionalism but still want some semblance of style. At Neiman Marcus for $1650.

UPDATE: There is a gorgeous taupey beige at Saks Fifth Avenueicon. So much nicer than the black!

I Want Cheap Designer Handbags And Also Big Shining Diamonds

China’s developed manufacture industry has helped the handbag replica industry gain rapid development and many consumers from Europe and America adore the quality and cheap cloned designer handbags, as according to some consumers that they are the same, why should I spend two or three times the money on the authentic?

Replica handbags are available, we can get them through online store, like replicaestore.com, but how about diamonds, another favorite of women, can they be available at low price? Sure, consumers in China have already been able to enjoy this benefit. In China, people can buy a one karat diamond at 19999Yuan online, 50% lower than market price. The price difference isn’t due to the quality of the diamonds, but costs saved by the unique management mode of online sales such as high admission required by coach wholesale shopping malls, rent, fitment, personnel, logistics and propaganda.

According to observers, internet direct sale in fact has unveiled the quick profits of diamond industry. First of all, the price of most diamonds sold online is only half the price of those sold in traditional jewelry stores. For example, a high quality diamond ring with a two karat diamond asks for 250,000 RMB in a traditional store, while through online direct sale, people only have to pay about 150,000RMB. Mr. Zhu says a diamond ring has to travel through many persons before it reaches the buyer’s finger, from mine owner, cutters, wholesaler to retailer, the cost of a finish product is higher than its own. Before diamonds reach the retail terminals, they are changed hands as many as five times by middlemen, and still 30% of the sales of every diamond sold has to be handed in to the jewelry store, therefore, retailers can only get about 10%. No doubt the cost of diamonds in traditional jewelry stores is prohibitive.

“To open a jewelry store in a middle and large-sized city, only the rent costs almost ten million Yuan a year, which amount the websites have returned to their customers.”results of an investigation frome martsexpress.com. Meanwhile, own to e-commerce’s characteristics, there are no real shop costs to be paid, little and even no inventory cost and lowered cost of circulation, diamond products sold online enjoy certain advantages in cost and their pieces of diamonds of same quality can be 20% to 50% lower than traditional jewelry stores.
