Miu Miu Bow Satchel Vanessa Hudgens Style

Here is Vanessa Hudgens with a very cute Miu Miu Bow Satchel.

An authentic one from Net-a-Porter. This is a new collection of Miu Miu Bow Satchel with the new silver hardware.

A replica bow satchel:

The normal criticism against this replica is the leather is too stiff and the top cannot be folded down. The leather needs to be very soft to fold down the top. I found another photo of a replica. From this photo, it looks like the leather is very soft. But the sad thing is the authentic Miu Miu bow satchel doesn’t come in this color!

Prada Royal Calf Clutch

Does this Royal Calf Clutch from Prada 08 Fall Collection remind you of roses? They are star-shaped pleating, somehow it looks like roses to me.

See how the replica looks like - the pleating on a replica looks like daisy!

The authentic clutch costs $1060. That is a lot of money for a tiny clutch. But after you see the replica you should know the real clutch does worth the money. The craftsmanship is way too complicated on the authentic clutch.

CHANEL 2.55 REISSUE Flap Bag

Haylie Duff, the little sister of Hilary Duff, went shopping with her CHANEL 2.55 REISSUE bag.

It is the new collection with the new chain handles.

Check out some replica here. The leather looks distressed on this bag.

But the chain straps are wrong. The authentic CHANEL 2.55 REISSUE Flap Bag should have only 3 rings on one strap. This chain strap has 5 rings!

An authentic one in grey distressed lambskin:

A close look of the chain strap - this is a replica! They got the chain strap right on this bag, while the clasp in front is too small for this size.

Marc Jacobs Small Cecilia Tote

This Marc Jacobs Small Cecilia Tote is similar to the famous stam bag: quilted leather with signature zip pull.

Net-a-Porter has it for SALE now.

Here is a replica. The photos are excellent while the shape of the bag looks different from a real Marc Jacobs Small Cecilia Tote.

I believe the replica has the same size as the authentic bag. But the authentic bag’s leather is softer, so it gives a different shape when it stands.

Christy Turlington for Chanel East West Bag

Christy Turlington is back for the Spring Chanel collection. She does look a bit old in this photo. It is not her skin or wrinkle but her bone structure that made her look less fresh. But I agree she ages very gracefully.
