Here at My Designer Bag its been a while since the last post, as things were cooling off a little, but they're hotting up once again as the Spring approaches and the year gets back into full swing after the Winter blues have dissipated!
What is this post all about, with the tempting title of Designer Bags for Style looming across the top? Well, its more of a ramble about the impeccable styling and quality of genuine designer bags as opposed to the more rough finishing and presentation of the fakes which are increasingly being passed off as the real thing.
So in a way, its a timely reminder to be on your guard for fake designer bags, while embracing the latest designs to have appeared in the stores since Christmas, when everyone seems to have been more intent on clearing out last year's fashions in readiness for the explosion of new styles for 2009.
The ever popular Miche Bags with their interchangeable insides are becoming more and more sought after while the ever present big names such as Prada, Gucci, Fendi et al are continually redesigning and reshaping to keep the shelves stocked with ever more stylish and desirable bags. So its a time to keep one eye on the stores and the other eye on the online outlets and fashion news sites for the earliest word on that newest Louis Vuitton, or Jimmy Choo or the very latest bags to emerge from the Balenciaga or Vera radley stables.
Don't expect bargains from any of these top names, by the way, because you will certainly have to pay for what you get. And what you will get will be a timeless fashion statement that will turn heads and cause spontaneous whispers along with widened eyes and surprised faces! Because when you invest in a genuine designer bag, you are investing in your look, which is as important as it ever was, ever is and ever will be!
Ciao for now folks!

Beat Your Designer Bag Addiction!
Following on from our last post Designer Bags and Organic Fashion, which covered the ecological issues surrounding the production and sale of designer bags, here we'll take a tongue-in-cheek look at ten ways in which you can beat your designer bag addiction... if you want to, of course!
This is for you if you simply cannot open your closet because it is so full of your designer handbags - to simply turn the knob, a tsunami wave of designer bags and purses cascade out and create pandemonium in your bedroom into a mess! Well, maybe you need some help. If you are trying like mad, but unsuccessfully to curb your designer bag addiction, here is the definitive method to help you beat your designer bag addiction in 10 steps.
2. Make a budget for yourself. You are not just going to make a budget for your designer bags by the way, listing exactly how many Louis Vuittons you can buy versus Tote bags. You will make a budget for everything in your life including rent, utility bills and car insurance, etc. It's a drag, but a necessary one.
3. With your budget in hand, you are going to limit how many designer bags you will purchase. So, of you only have an extra $200 in your budget and the Louis Vuitton handbag costs about $800, you will have to swallow the fact that you can only afford to buy one every four months. That means NOT buying the blue leather designer bag and the black Gucci bag at the same time!
4. If you are having willpower problem over not buying a designer bag, watch out for that tempting rash purchase. Maybe 20 years ago you'd just put the money in the bank, which would have put a stop to you buying a designer bag on the spot. But with shopping online, ATMs and credit cards, you are going to need to literally freeze your plastic. This is cool... Get a plastic container, fill it with water, put your credit cards in it, and pop it in the freezer. Now if you want to purchase that latest Fendi designer bag, you're gonna have to wait for the money to thaw.
5. Avoid temptations. Throw away the tabloids or just don't buy them to avoid seeing ads for designer bags. It seems that every week a new celebrity is carrying around a different designer bag. While it's nice to see who has the same bag that you want, it's just too tempting.
6. If you're feeling a little depressed about not having the latest designer bag, re-organize your own collection. Even if you only have a small collection of designer bags you can spend the time that you'd spend shopping doing some work on them.
7. If you are weary of carrying around the same designer bag, why not take some of your older bags out of retirement. While they may have been popular a few years ago, good designer bags never go out of fashion - they ARE fashion!
8. To get a new designer bag into your wardrobe, why not trade with a friend or better still, borrow one. If you don't know anyone you could do that with, check this out:
Borrow the Biggest Brands in Designer Handbags at BagBorrowOrSteal.Com!
It won’t cost you a lot of money, and no one has to know it’s not yours.
9. Designer bags are expensive items to collect, so you may want to start a different collection. Why not try stamp collecting? Stamps are cheap so you could buy hundreds of them for the price of one designer bag. On the other hand, forget that one...
10. If it's really too tough to beat your designer bag addiction, to relieve the stress you may just want go ahead and buy a nice Burberry. You’ll be truly disappointed in yourself, hate yourself even for succumbing to that temptation... but hey, at least you'll have the satisfaction of carrying around the latest Burberry designer bag!
If that doesn't inspire you to give up your designer bag addiction, then don't! Go out and treat yourself to a new designer bag instead - a little retail therapy never hurt anyone!

1. Unlike many self-help programs, you don’t want to go cold turkey and stop buying designer bags altogether. If you are addicted to designer bags it won’t work.

Designer Bag Mania
Designer bag mania is all around us! Following the last post How to Spot a Fake Designer Bag, we'll take a look at designer bag mania!
What's this?
Well, the stampede to own the latest designer bag fashion has never been so fierce as in recent times. Top brand names like Louis Vuitton Bag, Prada Bag, Burberry Bag, Gucci Bag, Fendi Bag, Balenciaga Bag, Jimmy Choo, Chanel, Tod's and many more are fast becoming the must-have accessories for those expensive evenings out or days at top social events.
With so many top names and different styles to choose from, it's fast becoming a nightmare for the fashion conscious of the social scene to keep up with everyone else.
Thankfully, there are some top fashion stores with online outlets for the stay-at-home shopper to browse through the vast array of available items making shopping for a new designer bag much easier than it used to be.
No more long waits in heavy traffic, battling to find a parking space then fighting your way through crowds of shoppers to get to the store in the first place. Not to mention the hours spent walking around the stores looking for that one special designer bag for that one special event, only to find that one you had your heart set on was sold out at every place you tried.
Online shopping does away with all that hard work.
And Affman has taken the long frustrating online search for that perfect store out of the game as well, by setting up the perfect sites to point you in the perfect direction for the designer bag of your dreams.
You can click Designer Bag to go see the place to find just what you're looking for.

My Designer Bag - Another Store
I got accepted as an affiliate of the giant US store, FranklinCovey. So I have added that store to my Squidoo lens at Designer Bag.
I've also posted another interesting article there about how to tell a fake designer bag from a genuine one which should come in very useful should you be in the market for a new designer bag and not want to be caught out by a cheap fake.
Apologies for a short post, but time has run out for today's online work, so I'll get more done tomorrow!
