A tale of two Bags….
Two bags, two different stories, one is cheap and one is well…a whopping £5000! (and this was for the mini size!). One is pictured in a high fashion magazine, the other I photographed in a local shop that also fixes phones (‘interesting’ combination..!) so I thought I’d have a little ‘fun’ and place the cheap bag on the high fashion magazine image, and the expensive Fendi bag on my local charity shop ‘fashion heroine’ mannequin ‘Stephanie’ yes! I just absolutely love the thought of my local charity shop mannequin displaying a Fendi bag! (talk about high/low fashion!) Oh I can dream…can’t I? I mean why shouldn’t my local fashion heroine get some kind of an ‘upgrade’? Oh the thought of it! I just get so carried away…I just love that Fendi bag, it reminds me of those wonderful ‘boisterous’ Victorian carpetbags, so I heartily approve! 
As for the other bag it’s got some ‘bling bling’ and does fit this Kendall Jenner pose (though I doubt she’d be seen carrying this bag…it would cost her too much in lost brand revenue and contracts…) though for this bag at £20 if she did use it and get photographed with it, it’d be quite a rebellion! (and then of course they’d be high demand for it and the ‘phone’ shop would be swamped…!).
I did spot a designer bag in a charity shop last year. I didn’t realise it at first as I was busy ‘snapping away’ as usual, when I noticed a woman following me around the shop doing the same thing! Ahhhh! So I went back to look again at the bag as I thought that’d do for a friend, when ‘lo and behold’ that bloody ‘stalker’ was buying the bag! She didn’t even notice it until I stood looking at it, and much to my chagrin I discovered later on it was an Alexander McQueen clutch bag! That she bought for £3! Oh the injustice of it! So be careful when you take an interest in an item, just pretend that you’ve not even seen it! Though I wonder…who..that ‘stalker’ was??
