Rhianna Has Big Feet

My mom was flipping through my last issue of Vogue and came across the Gucci Ad featuring Rhianna and gasped out loud. Being that I don’t really like the tattoo bag too much, I was kind of surprised at such a reaction. She looked up to me and said ‘Look at how BIG her feet are!!”
LOL.

Got to LOVE the different perspectives of others!

Hayden-Hartnett for Target

Ok people, I am SUPER disappointed with the new and anticipated Hayden-Hartnett for Target and I’ll tell you why.

The pictures that were all over the internet had me super excited, but as I rushed over to the store, all sweaty and stinky after my workout, I see the bags and they were SO cheap looking. Like UBER cheap. The designs were really nice, but the material for most of the brown bags were horrific. AND get this – I don’t know why I didn’t see this before, but the big fake gold plated metal label on the bag says Hayden-Hartnett for TARGET. I kid you not. Ugh. Major disappointment!

Purples Are Out

I told you all that purple would only last so long. I didn’t like it from the get go, but I do admit that I went to the Coach store and thought the purple fringe bag in person was ravishing!!

Would You Pay 1k for A Coach Bag??

What happened to Coach being the introduction to designer handbags?? Remember the steps of induction? First comes Doony & Bourke, then comes Coach, then comes Louis Vuitton. And for those of us that never could really get into Doony, it was just a basic signature Coach.

I’ll tell you what I think happened…and that is the Outlets KILLED the Coach bag. Coming from a town where every chick with a job has a Coach bag, I went into uber-high-gotta-have-it mode to escape from that group, I had to be BETTER than Coach.

And then it happened. First, Brianette sent me the link to the new Coach print. 48 Hours later, I saw tables full of Coach vintage print at Macy’s on sale for 40% off. I didn’t buy any, of course, because I’m a Louis Vuitton girl now, and I’ve got to tell you I am digging the committed relationship.

After thinking about the new Coach print and the out of the blue sale at Macy’s I began to think and wonder WHY could this be happening? Is Coach trying to get in where they fit in, during a time of economical turmoil? Are their stocks doing good? I mean, they ARE an American company, and with Barack Obama being our new leader, it will be hip to be American again. And didn’t LV say that their sales were only doing good in China? Interesting.

And so I logged on to the Coach.com site tonight, out of sheer curiousity, and saw this. A purple fringed Coach Bag for $1000.

Get outta here.
