Okay so I had bought this bag from my beloved Target store back last year but it the handle broke ): Ever since then, I've been looking for a replacement for it and no luck. So I'm wondering if you guys saw something similar like this online:
It was Rafe bag made for Target  its a duffel type bag or whatever you want to call it. I loved the bag because it was very roomy and it had sophisticated look to it. but i appreciate anyone's help (: |

Here's on Ebay... Quite expensive, though, for a bag from Target.

Forever21 has some cute-ish ones... not very similar, but I guess if you squint your eyes... and they'd be a nice size, too.

I don't think that it's possible for you to get that bag anymore at the price you got it at. Rafe bags are generally at least $200. So for them to sell a Rafe bag, even if it's designed for Target for $100, it's cheap. It's kind of like the limited ed "I am not a plastic bag" bags by Anya Hindmarch. The original price was about $15. But it was sold online for hundreds of dollars.

You can go to the Rafe store and under the "contact us" ask them what their policy for broken products is. Most reputable designers (Coach, LV, etc) have a lifetime guarantee on their products and will fix things for free if you send it back to the warehouse

I'll never understand why women are so competitive over fashion, no matter how ridiculously priced items can be. Do women only compete with fashion because they have something to prove to other women?
I can assure you that men really don't care about what designer clothes and purses women wear/use. So it would be quite silly if women are so proud over fashion just to make themselves look better than other women; so that it would attract men. I hope that's not the case.  QUOTE(RoyalSwagger @ Apr 1 2008, 11:52 PM) big bags are not in style or season right nowwwww. just a note. My girl used to own two large bags... I made her throw them out. And bought her a normal size purse. I hate large purses and large earrings... looks so low class. |

Why the f**k would I buy a bag to attract a guy? It's common knowledge that 90% of straight males do not have the tiniest bit of sense for fashion. And that the only thing that straight males do understand when it comes to fashion is lingerie, short skirts and hooker heels.
If I wear designer clothes, I do so for myself. And wow, sucks for your girlfriend since oversized bags will still be in for the next few seasons to come. And sucks for her that she has no backbone to stand up to you. |

I mean I understand if you're goin to the beach or even a picnic and you need a big bag... but c'mon a large bag on a tiny petite female looks ridiculous lol... What does sexuality have anything to do with with fashion?... All that matters to me is that it fits and matches with the rest of my outfit. I don't care about some guy's/woman's name on my shirt. I don't represent designers, I represent me and my style without the labels. So are you at least getting paid for all the designer stuff you guys wear and represent? lol @ trends and their seasons of trends

Hm.
First off, big bags are incredibly useful; I carry books and shit for classes in them. So please lay off the bags. Secondly, what a person wears says a lot about themselves. That's why everybody has their own particular style and why I don't really get it when someone else says "I wish I had your style." I like designer clothes, but I always stay away from graphic shirts and clothing with the label as a prominent part of the design. So no, I don't wear clothing to flaunt the brand name. And there are A LOT of guys that care about how they look. |

If there's anything worse than a really, really big bag, it's a small bag. They are f**king ugly. Please, do yourself a favour. Take the straps off your tiny bag and change it into a clutch or something.
If my boyfriend made me throw out my big bags, I'd throw him out. What a jackass. |

just to say no one can honestly say they dont follow trends or what in season or in style. Would you wear a pair of overalls? probably nottttt. Would you wear a pair of bell bottoms? then ask yourself why. and dont give you self a BS answer like "there ugly". Everyone follows trends and styles how do you think fashion changes so quickly? you think you own big bags and its YOUR style. NO its a designers style who thought of it and put it out there. ask your parents what they were wearing when they were you age. and ask them why would you were that? and they'll most likely say "that was cool then, that was in".

I somewhat agree with on the idea that we all follow some sort of trend.
But if I wear something, It's still MY style. There's a ton of styles out there and a ton of different things. That doesn't mean that I'm going to buy all of it - I have the liberty to pick and choose. A designer can design ten different types of bags and I wont necessarily like all of them. |
