When I think of knock off bags, this is what comes to mind….


When Christian Dior saddlebags were all the rage, I had a blue jean one with patches and a cute little button on it I got for like $65 from my purse “dealer” (I was a broke college student at the time..that was all I could do). I though I was the shiz and got compliments on it all the time, but always hated that dreaded question….”Which store did you buy it in?” I wanted to say….”Uh, the booth behind the Christian Dior store beeotch” but never did.
The day I would wear a knock off bag was forever buried (along with Paris Hilton’s panty collection) after the Sex and the City episode aired where Samantha bought a “fake Fendi” from the trunk of a car in LA. She later attacked a Playboy Bunny at the Playboy Mansion when she thought the Bunny snatched her bag…only the Playboy Bunnys bag didn’t say Made In China inside.


For those of you that don’t have the funds to buy a designer bag…there are options.
My best friend just got a bag from baghhaus.com and loved her knock off Marc Jacobs bag, although she fears for the dreaded day she will have to knock over a glass of water a la Dave Chappelle Black President episode and break out running like Superhead to the BET Music Awards (ok that’s the last random Superhead joke…but she is so easy…literally!)
