Gomatta Girls!!
So you know we love a great handbag and a great steal, right? Here’s a great new tip for the like-minded; check out www.GomattaGirls.com for their upcoming handbag sale. They will feature a number of styles over the course of a week at rock bottom prices. What’s a gomatta, you ask? It’s slang for a mobster girlfriend or mistress; no self-respecting wiseguy is without one. So we have a pretty good idea of how they get their discounts to be so deep. Their merchandise is discounted around 70-90%, and since these bags retail in places like Barney’s New York starting at $400, that’s some serious savings!
Don’t be confused–they sell only one style a day, and the next day it’s something new. So if you like what you see, snap it up before somebody else does. Supplies are limited, and as the Gomatta Girls say, once it’s gone, it’s gone for good! If you go ahead and subscribe, you’ll get notified when the new merchandise goes up.
Hot Affordable Clutches!
Extravagant Handbags!
| I often find myself drooling over the newest designer luxury handbags! Loving the style, texture and luxury that each unique piece displays. But I also catch myself wandering…if I had the money…would I spend it on this?? Sometimes the answer is yes, because I love it that much, yes I know very materialistic of me! But sometimes there is a big no, no no. This extravagent handbag is not worth it to me. What do you think?? | Urban Satchel Louis Vuitton Bag
Extravagant Price: $150,000
This Urban Satchel Louis Vuitton Bag exhibits a different taste of fashion. Incorporated with what designers call “urban charms,” the bag is crafted with all sorts of urban rubbish you can find from shrimp tails, band aid, cigarette packets, tea bags to gums and used water bottle.
Though it has been described as “Fugly” and was declared one of the ugliest bags, this one-of-a-kind luxury is a hit to the rich and famous teenagers. It has been said that the Olsen twins signed a multi-billion dollar deal to advertise this expensive and totally outrageous bag and are fighting over who gets to purchase it. Other rumors are that Anna Wintour and Victoria are locked in a nasty bidding war to get it. Thanks to Wetpaint.com

Solar Handbags?
 |
| Ever forgot your phone or ipod charger? It happens to me all the time. Unfortunately I don’t have a car charger either so usually I’m pretty much out of luck. I think I’ve found the solution to my problems-look at this new handbag that I found; it will actually charge your phone or ipod while you are on the go! The bag is “bavarian cowhide leather with antique brass hardware, hand dyed hemp/cotton fabric, a hemp cotton lining and sports a 12-inch by 12-inch flexible solar panel on the side. Gadgets connect to the solar panel via the cable hidden away in the inside pocket using the USB or iPod cables included with the handbag(www.geeks.com).” It’s not really known(or I haven’t found it yet) where these can be bought, but www.geek.com found a similar handbag for $476.00. With all the new “green” ideas that are coming out I would have never imagined this one making it to the market, but I think it’s a great idea if you can afford it! |

World’s Most Expensive Handbag!!!
| I saw this article on www.telegraph.co.uk and had to share it with you! This is the world’s most expensive hadnbag; how much does it cost? 1 million pounds!!! Listen to this and maybe you will understand why. The handbag is made out of platinum and has over 2,000 diamonds on it! If you are not going to carry it around town, you can take off the strap and use it as a necklace, or take off the front embellishment and use it as a brooch. Pretty cool.. but really? 1 million pounds? |  |

Fun Fashion Fact!
Fashion Shows — Pure Publicity
Fashion shows may be fun to watch, but they are pure publicity. Most designers don’t even really make what they design for the runway. The fact is that retailers do most of their buying before they ever go to fashion shows — which can cost $300,000 up to $1 million! Most fashion businesses make their money from basics — not their high-end collections.
