Designer Handbag Bible

Fancy a flashing messenger bag? This might be the one for you: Silver Prada Gauffre Messenger Bag.

See how Jessica Biel handled this? She really fully loaded it!

It suits Sandra Bullock more.

This messenger looks like a diaper bag. With that long strap you will have free hands to hold a baby. With that roomy space you can store more than one milk bottle!

A replica in silver. The trim should be in a slightly different color, not the same color.

The lining of a replica - creamy Prada logo lining is wrong.

An authentic one on eBay:

The authentic lining is black Prada logo.

If you find the authenticity card has the correct name for the bag, 90% of chance this is authentic because most Prada replica come with a wrongly-named card!

After Prada nappa stripped bag Miuccia Prada introduced another similar nappa patch bag under their younger line: Miu Miu. They are similar in style: one with colorful nappa strips and the other with colorful nappa patch.

The less expensive Miu Miu is originally designed to attract the younger audience. But its girly design also attracts those that want to reminisce their girly past: i.e the stylish queen Victoria Beckham.

An authentic Miu Miu Harlequin Tote. The leather looks vintage, you can see the color looks fading and it is slightly cracked.

Miu Miu vitello patch

A replica. The color of this leather looks very solid and dull.

It comes in many color combination.

From this photo, you can see the color of its leather looks fading. I saw this real bag from a posh lady in Chelsea London. The bag looks worn, since the color looks faded even if it is a new bag. I guess this is the feature of this bag.
