A Miche Bag Designer Bag With a Shell?

With a break from designer bag information as such as per our last post Designer Bag or Designer Inspired Bag?, this installment is going to introduce a new designer bag maker with a nice big flashy banner and a bit about what they're about!

First, some background:

Around three years ago, Michelle Romero owned a handbag she really liked. Then she went and spilled something on it. She was upset that she'd have to transfer the contents of her purse, then replace it with a brand new bag. Well, a thought occurred to Michelle then - Wouldn't it be convenient, not to mention fun if a handbag could have a removable cover.

Michelle disassembled that bag and made the prototype of a brand new designer bag that now had a removable shell. Well, Michelle showed it to her friend Annette Cavaness, who immediately fell in love with the concept. The two of them developed a business plan. They contacted a patent lawyer as well as a sourcing agent who helped them to find a factory in China to produce the bags. That led to the creation of what we now know as the Miche Bag.

Miche Bags are the totally greatest sensation to hit women's fashion and accessories! They make a designer handbag that actually has an interchangeable shell. Now that allows women to technically own as many designer handbags as they want simply by changing shells, not designer bags!

What an absolutely great way to own a large collection of great designer bags without busting the bank! With the Miche Bag trademark to keep things above board and totally genuine, you have a really great addition to your designer bag collection in these amazing bags.

Designer Bag or Designer Inspired Bag?

Following the last post here at My Designer Bag where we showed you how to Beat Your Designer Bag Addiction, it'd be great to look at some of the differences between true designer bags and the more affordable alternatives, known as designer inspired bags.

Designer bags are coming out in some great styles this season. Most designer bags have warranties on their products which means they'll fix any manufacturing defects or weaknesses for you should they occur. Designer bags like Burberry bag, Gucci bag, Fedi bag etc, however, carry a steep price tag which places them out of reach for many people.

Designer inspired and fashion bags, on the other hand, are much more affordable. Designer inspired bags have the same style as their designer bag label counterparts, but have enough noticeable differences which can distinguish them from the true designer bag. That prevents violation of trademark or copyright laws. They also don't display the designer bag name or logos anywhere on the bag.

While fashion handbags come in lots of great styles, they're not necessarily styled after the designer labels.

When you buy a true designer bag, it's no secret that the higher price includes the displayed name and logos. You should always be certain that you get exactly what you pay for. It's also no secret that the big designer bag names in handbag fashions refrain from wholesaling their products to small independent retailers. They also usually limit the online sales of their designer bag products to their own website or sometimes to a large national retailer who is authorized to sell their designer bag products.

Beware cheap imitations being sold as designer bags! There are many handbags being sold off as designer bag labels that are not what they appear to be.

As an example, you might pay only $300 for a designer bag that you'll find on a genuine designer bag site for $900. Well, if you did your homework and got the real deal, say something advertised as "gently used" on eBay, well you got a great deal: But if it turns out to be merely a really good replica, then you paid way over the odds for it.

If you like the style of a particular handbag and you are not so bothered about the name on the bag, then a designer inspired handbag or fashion handbag can give you the look you want without breaking the bank that a true designer bag would do. It's a great idea if you really like a particular look or style.

As long as you are aware that designer inspired bags and fashion handbags can come in varying qualities, you'll be fine as long as when purchasing them, you check out the store's return policy. Most stores that sell well made handbags, be they online or a high street or shopping mall store, will be proud to stand behind their products and be more than happy to provide some type of return policy.

So whether you go for the true designer bag or the more affordable designer inspired bag, it comes down to personal choice as much as the size of your bank balance!
