Are Designer Handbags Worth The Money

By Lee MacRae

Young women today work hard to create a personal fashion style in their appearance. And a great way to complete a smart and tasteful unfit is a great handbag by a designer like Hogan or Prada. But one of the worries is the amount of money, they may have to pay. Are these handbags worth it?

For most people, of course, they want to make sure their hard earned money is used wisely. So, is that expensive Celine bag a good investment? Is going to last? The short answer is, yes they are worth. And why is that true?

Now it is true that you're also going to pay for the name on the handbag. But it is also true that you're going to pay for quality when you buy a name brand product. The best bags made by Etienne Aigner or Longchamp will incorporate only the best leathers on the market.

Want a hint to know what you're getting? Top designer handbags will always have a fine lining material inside. Cheaper handbags will not. Makers of lower grade products look for every possible way to keep costs down. And so they use a lower grade linings and even lower grade hardware such as the clasp. Avoid these like the plague. Full grain leather products are made from top grade natural hides without imperfections. This natural grain is extremely durable. It simply does not wear out and eventually will develope a rich patina that increases in beauty. Full-grained handbags are often made from the skins of young cattle and have extremely smooth texture, and very fine quality.

So will you get full value for your money. When you buy a leather handbag made by Gucci or Maxx New York? Yes, you will. And you will have a quality, long lasting handbag that will also make a fine fashion statement.

Textile artist Susie Freeman and practising GP Dr Liz Lee, are an unlikely twosome for an artistic collaboration. More unusual is the work they create - clothes that seem fluffy and frivolous but actually draw attention to medical matters.

Susie Freeman and Liz Lee are old school friends and Susie explains how their collaboration developed: 'We chat like all women do. Liz was very interested in family planning, and wanted to raise awareness of contraceptive methods available.' Around the same time, a U.S. gallery which sold Susie's work, commissioned one of her textile garments decorated with pills. Susie hadn't made such a piece but the mistaken request sparked an idea - combine Susie's dramatic fabrics with Liz's medical objectives.

Their idea, which they called Inside Out, won them a Sci-Art Award in 1998 - a grants scheme sponsored by the Wellcome Trust encouraging collaborations between scientists and artists. This set them on the path of 'drawing attention to medical decisions that people make', enabling Susie and Liz 'to express the thought processes and emotions involved when patients make decisions about medical treatment.' ...
