Totally sane post for 3am

Watched the beautiful Avatar today.
Everybody go watch so they can make a sequel!!

Im a sucker for anything fantasy (Vampire stays with Vampire Knight please) so I thoroughly enjoyed each second without noticing the time.

Here I am with the epic Country Road version of the PS1.
Someone from TFS was, I quote 'disgusted' enough to send Proenza an email about Country Road.
Oh my god.
There are some big baby whingers out there.

Its not like the people buying the $200 bag were likely to buy the $4000 bag in the first place.
If Proenza goes bankrupt from depleting sales then that is their own fault.
Leather and suede is ridiculously cheap.
Read Fashion Babylon for insider details on how some (*cough*most*cough*) designers manufacture in China and stitch the last things on to add the 'made in Italy' tag.

That girl won't have one thing in her wardrobe that hasn't been a stolen idea from another designer.

My conclusion from this messy argument is, Proenza is making $4000 per bag (In Australia) and Country Road is making about $200-$300.
They both use leather and suede.
Whose to say the cheaper alternative gives you less style than the dearer one?
And don't be so bossy on what other people spend their money on.
Boycott it and move on with life.
Gees.

RUTH said...

yuur insane 3 am??
i love your glasses where did you get them?

Mangotatoes said...

i love this outfit! everything from the sequin vest to the bag to the flats love it

Macy said...

the way I see it, if you like something and you can afford it, then why not get it? Even if it is cheaper. I think the bag looks pretty fantastic, despite the fact it's a copy. Clearly not everyone will be able to or even willing to spend thousands of dollars on one bag, and if you can find something just as good for waaaay cheaper then it's totally worth it.

I'm glad you speak your mind a lot. Don't change this post, it's completely honest. I like.

"Its not like the people buying the $200 bag were likely to buy the $4000 bag in the first place."


Agreed. If someone is happy with the cheaper version who cares ! They both have the same purpose, to lug around girls crap haha :) The bag looks fantastic.Bagus!
