New In

A few weeks ago, I tweeted about this Céline bag that I was coveting.  You all know I have a major weakness for Céline and while I love the bag - the zipper details are clutch - I wasn't sure I loved it enough to drop $1000+ to own it.  So, I went searching for a similar bag that wouldn't cost me almost a month's rent and found just what I was looking for on eBay.  The bag is identical, minus the CÉLINE PARIS markings on the front. Oddly enough, the zippers say Céline on them (a detail of which I was unaware when I made the purchase), making me think the bag was destined to become a knock-off, but didn't quite make it that far.  I am generally a strong advocate against the knock-off, but I don't always think you need to spend thousands on a high-end brand to get a style you like.  Hence, this guy:


It does the job and now I have a few extra dollars to spend (maybe on a Céline!) when I'm in Europe.
