Cheap designer handbags

So as you know I don’t usually like to go too long without featuring a Marc Jacobs bag (usually under a month J)  so thought I would review a bag that did achieve somewhat iconic status in the fashion world. This purple heart purse named the “Love clutch” was incredibly striking when it was launched over a year ago. Now you may be thinking this is a little too much attention for a purse over a year old but i just noticed that it’s been discounted by over 40% at the outnet (http://www.theoutnet.com/product/86466#) in the last few days. The thing is £351 for a genuine Marc Jacobs really is a steal and if you are going to go with a real brand designer then you might as well pick one of their most famous items like the “Love clutch”.

I suppose this does bring me on to a very important point. Just how much money can you save by waiting a season (or even two) for that bag that you simply had to have when it came out? Well it does seem to depend on the designer as realistically speaking a Jimmy Choo at £1000 isn’t going to be much cheaper a few months after launch. Indeed some bags even become collector’s items and increase in price believe it or not. What I’m really talking about is a bag that is mass produced (most marc Jacobs bags) so after a season retailers get scared of getting stuck with the stock and try to offload at a huge discount. The thing is these kind of “iconic” bags never go out of fashion (mostly) so it’s one of the most sensible purchases you can make (if you can wait that is).
