Everyone wants brand name accessories, especially in the trendy fashion circles. Many of us have been tempted to buy one of those Louis Vuitton replicas, but we surely wouldn’t want to be seen carrying it around. I think you all know my stance on replicas and knockoffs. In my little world, they are simply unacceptable. Fashion is my life, and the market in replicas undermines the stability of the industry I have grown to love.

For the price conscious shopper, there are other alternatives available. A number of the major department stores have started to carry designer accessories and handbags, at greatly discounted prices. While there are some that believe that high fashion is the exclusive domain of the wealthy, it is my opinion that fashion should unite and not divide. The love of fashion can and will continue to bring people of common interest together.

I recently went upstate for a weekend to visit some friends and family, and I was thrilled to discover a factory outlet for Coach. I picked up three amazing handbags at very reasonable prices, and I intend to go back sometime soon. To be honest, I was amazed to see a company like Coach with a discount outlet. I have spent countless hours exploring their flagship store on Madison Avenue, and from I could tell the outlet store had almost the exact same inventory. At discounted prices, no less!

Upon returning home, I did some research on sales figures for Coach. It turns out that the discount outlet I had just visited earns almost as much revenue as the flagship store in NYC. In 2005 this particular outlet store earned over 20 million dollars, and they are projecting earnings over 25 million for the current year! These are astounding figures, in my humble opinion. Why aren’t other designers pursuing the discount market?

My feeling is that is has a lot to do with the elitist attitudes that pervade the fashion industry. There is a strong feeling, in fashion circles, that discount stores dilute the luxury image that so many designers are trying to cultivate. While there may be some credence to this argument, I am of the opinion that fashion is for the people. I would love to see more companies taking the approach that Coach is taking. Purses for the People, I say!

I was smiling to myself when I read the story of Linda (name changed but the story is true and factual).

One day, a photograph of a big oversized girl in her early twenties was splashed throughout the newspapers in Malaysia. The photograph showed a plain looking oversized girl who was sitting on top of a hapless man, pinning him down by her sheer weight.

When I read the news story, it told of how Linda was the victim of a snatch thief who went for her handbag, but this gusty oversized pounder of a girl was not going to take it lightly. She pounced on the snatch thief and pinned him down, and yelled for help.

Oversized, and unflattering in looks, she spoke of having to walk alone back from work at a photo studio where she worked as a clerk, as she had no boy friend.

Three months down the road, I was again surprised by another photograph.

This time the photograph showed the same Linda but as a dashing, slim and attractive girl. Gone was the fat, the flabby thighs, and what remained was a vastly improved Linda with new attractive looks, and a new wardrobe.

How did Linda make that transistion from oversized and shunned lady to a desirable siren?

What transpired was that when her photograph was published in newspapers nationwide, there was a boss from a Weight Loss and Slimming Centre who knew Linda would benefit from a course on dieting and weight loss and control. This owner sponsored her for this course, and so 3 months later, he had transformed Linda to a dashing beauty.

The crux of this story is simply this You can undergo a course of dieting and weight loss, and emerge a physically better person. Going for a course means discipline, and stems an air of finality that you are taking the initiative to get yourself back into shape and better health.

For those who are in need, you can pick up a lot of pointers, tips and techniques for natural weight loss methods for free by reading testimonials and reports by others who have been through it all…and have gotten their shapes and sizes back. What remains is a self imposed discipline to take action. The battle of weight control starts in the mind, and that is where you need to start if you wish to have the best size, shape and weight. Once that is done, you are well on the road to an improved weight and better health.

You want the perfect designer handbag, but you don’t know how to go about it. Finding a top quality designer handbag can be a difficult and frustrating experience. You want a bag that is both stylish and that will suit all your life style needs. Selecting the name brand, color and style is always a challenge when there’s plenty to choose from. You should ask your selfsome questions on choosing the right bag for you.

1. Are you looking for casual, trendy or classic?

2. Do you like or prefer style, practical, or comfort?

3. What size do you want it?

4. Will all the items you carry with you fit?

5. Do you want adjustable straps or handles?

6. Do you want a bag for evening or day or both?

7. Do you have color in mind?

8. What material or pattern do you prefer?

9. Are you trying to find a purse that will go with all your outfits or just one?

Take into consideration all the questions you ask your self and evaluate them. Remember as reference when shopping for your bag. Even though you are going shopping for the styles and brand names you like, not all styles will be flattering. Simple plain onecolor bags are easier to match but multi colored bags add color, flair and punch.

Ask your friends and family about their own preference on designer handbags. Not everyone will have the same opinion but does help you to make your own decision on what you want and like. Plus they might offer you some insider advice about the quality or certain designer that they deem worthy for workmanship.

Think about the shape of your body, not all styles and sizes will fit with your physic. In most cases if you are tall and slim then opt for a round or square shaped purse. If you’re shapelier, a slight larger, rectangle bag might work for you. In the end look in front of the mirror with bag on your shoulder and you be the judge on how it looks on you.

Although searching for the prefect designer handbag might seem like a lot of work it can be a fun and exciting adventure. All you have to do is simply a bit of preliminary work beforehand. In no time you’ll find the bag that meets all your requirements.

Every fashionista knows that Italian luxury handbags are synonymous with quality and style. Unfortunately, not every woman can afford fashion accessories made from exotic skins like python, crocodile, and ostrich. Thanks to a new manufacturing process, however, handcrafted purses, clutches, fashion handbags, and tote bags are considerably more affordable.

The CoccoLigator Process

The secret is coccoligator skin. If you’ve never heard of this innovative skin, you soon will, as it’s taking the fashion world by storm. The ligator process involves taking the natural fibers of the alligator’s and crocodile’s second layer of skin, and then subjecting it to heat. After that, the skin is varnished to a high gloss and glued on to highquality leather. From there, the leather is used by artisans to create Italian luxury handbags.

Different Patterns and Colors

Whether you’re shopping for wholesale handbags for your retail store, or are looking for an accessory for your personal use, it’s important to know that there are two different patterns used in coccoligator bags. The regular coccoligator pattern utilizes both the belly pattern, which is large and irregular, and the flanks, which are smaller and rounder. The hornback pattern is like that of the back of an alligator, which is a bit more rough and wild.

Coccoligator is about more than just patterns, however. It’s also about color. All Italian luxury handbags are timeless, but the color palette changes with the seasons. These fashion accessories are available in myriad colors, including black, mahogany, cream, gold, Bordeaux, white, honey, red, blue, gray, and dark green.

Style is Key

When you’re shopping for purses, texture and color are just two elements to consider. The third, of course, is design. To achieve a truly puttogether look, women need a handbag for every occasion. Fashion handbags, for example, are the perfect accessories for casual or daytime outfits, while classically styled purses are the bag of choice for women who want to convey elegance and sophistication. Clutches are a musthave to accessorize eveningwear and special occasions, while tote bags and organizers are crucial for women in the business world.

A Wonderful Alternative

There are many reasons why coccoligator is a great alternative to the exotic skins used in many Italian luxury handbags, but the two primary reasons are conservation and cost. Thanks to the unique ligator process, much more of the reptile is used, enabling us to enjoy fashion accessories while minimizing the impact on the species. In addition, the price of a coccoligator bag is a fraction of what we would spend on a crocodile purse.

When shopping for coccoligator handbags, make sure to buy from a company that prides itself on generations of tradition in handcrafting Italian luxury handbags. When you do, you’ll not only own a gorgeous purse, but you’ll also own an exquisite piece of art.

Few breeds are as widely loved as the Maltese. This intelligent and affectionate pet is popular all over the world with the rich and famous as well as the commoners.

The Maltese is a playful and adventurous little dog with a rich history dating back more than 28 centuries.

As with every breed there is some disagreement about the first traces of the breed. Some say the dog originated in Sweden and is a descendent of a Spitz type dog.

The Greeks believe the first Maltese originated in the Isle of Malta. They called this dog “Melitaie Dog”. Melitae was the ancient name for Malta. Some sources indicate the Maltese originated in Asia.

The earliest artifacts resembling Maltese dogs was found in Egypt. These date back to between 600300 B.C. suggesting that the ancient Egyptians worshipped early forms of the Maltese.

There are many historical pictoral representations of these dogs. Greek cermaic art and many Greek and roman philosphers also mention the Maltese. Aristotle and many other noteworthy philosophers and historians mention the dog. The Greeks even erected tombs to their Maltese.

These tiny dogs most likely made their way through Europe and the Middle East as nomadic tribes migrated. Some say the little dogs were used in bartering and in this way the Maltese found its way around Europe, and beyond.

The Maltese was regarded as a upper class dog, prized by aristocrats, statespersons and royalty. In the middle of the 19th Century it was regarded as quite fashionable to have a Maltese in your pocket or handbag. Some even believed that the dog possessed magical healing powers.

The first records of the Maltese in Britian is during the reign of Henry VIII. Many royals have enjoyed Maltese companions since then. Queen Elizabeth I and Queen Victoria also owned Maltese.

Nobody documented how the Maltese came to America. The Maltese were first seen in the US in the late 1800’s. The first Maltese was white and listed as a “Maltese Lion Dog” at the first show in 1877. The American Kennel Club started recognizing the breed in 1888.

Maltese owners come from all walks of life. Many pop culture icons have owned these good natured little dogs. Marylin Monroe, Elvis Presley, Elizabeth Taylor and Tony Bennett are some of the famous owners.

Most likely its white color and long silky coat had a great deal to do with its popularity. It also has alot to do with its great personality
