Pursebloggers, I am confused by the Barneys New York Chic Chain Bag on a few levels.
First, I’m confused that Barneys really makes house-brand bags. Of course,
Hermes Evelyn, I knew on a factual level that they did, but really? Do luxury goods customers want house brands? Even if the house is a good house? I can’t imagine anyone looking to spend a large amount of money on a bag would look first to something not even made by a proper design house. As much as I like buying supermarket-brand milk and cheese at the grocery store it’s the same stuff,
Hermes Bolide! Cheaper!, I would never do the same with money that I saved up to by something special and luxurious.
Second, BURLAP?? EVENING BAG? Did those two concepts just collide on one handbag? Couldn’t someone at Barney’s marketing department come up with a slightly more fashionable word for the material? Burlap’s really all they’ve got? Asking all these questions is starting to make me dizzy and more than a little annoyed. But they have to be asked, because this makes no sense.
Lastly, $950?!?!?!?,
Beats By Dre monsteroutlets Blog Archive Brecept!?,
Dr Dre Headphones monsteroutlets Blog Archive CE! For a BURLAP EVENING BAG? If Megs and Vlad would allow me to cuss,
Hermes Birkin, this is where it would be happening. I find myself offended at the implication that anyone should be spending $950 on anything made out of something that’s widely regarded as packing material. And I think I need a cocktail. Buy through Barneys for $950
