There happens to be a show on TV about handbags, and I'm just wondering how many of you girls wear real vs knockoff?? Its a controversial subject in my neck of the woods!!

My take on it is that if I can't afford the real thing, with the real designer stamp on it, then I buy a leather bag from Macy's or Nordstorm that I love.....I'd rather have an awesome REAL leather bag than a fake designer one. All my designer bags are real.

Sometimes you can get a real bag from the Coach outlets for less than a fake!

Re: Pocketbooks
i love bags but i dont have any designer ones. I love them all but i feel to guilty spending that kind of money on a handbag. Of course if someone bought me one that would be another story

Re: Pocketbooks
oh, i do have a fake 'prada', lol....someone bought it for me, it's obviously not real. But i feel so silly using it b/c it is a flat out knokoff....although the bag is nice. I would rather use it if it didnt say prada though....i dont want to look like i am trying too hard, lol

Re: Pocketbooks
Unfortunatly, I cant condone the purchase of fake bags. I file trademarks and handle anti-counterfeiting work for some major designers with the law firm that I work for. I spend my day filing and protecting our clients trademarks as well and surfing the web and shutting down websites/people who are selling counterfeits of our clients goods. I know of all the hard work that goes into branding a name and the money that our clients put into building their business and protecting their names. Its only real stuff for me, plus I would get fired if I client found out we were sporting knock-offs!
