i am immeasurably sick of seeing everyone carying those stupid dooney and bourke bags with the hearts on them that lindsay lohan advertises around school. theyre so ugly, not to mention overpriced. THEYRE EVERYWHERE and its horrible. theyre the most hideous thing ever. geez i cant believe people actually pay for those things

also, pants with words written across the ass are still awful. and always will be, as it happens.

im sure i have more complaints, but ill get back to you after i fail my chemistry test pinch.gif

I AGREE WITH YOU!!

i can't believe that people buy into this crap either. the dooney and bourke bags i've seen look like all those people did was sew on some random letters that spell out "dooney and bourke"

i just googled the bag you were talking about...it looks like a 5 year old designs their bags ermm.gif



plus, people pay like $55 bucks for a FAKE louis vuitton wallet thing

with that, you could've bought a REAL rocawear bag for $40


or this xoxo bag for $30


AND
this tommy hilfiger bag for like $25 on ebay


if people really insist on the hearts...i really like this xoxo bag more, it's $44 instead of the $100+ dooney and bourke one ermm.gif

Dooney & Burke is the kind of bag for people who LIKE more colorful stuff. See, buying a bag with the logo simply all over it, or the logo is in one place with a plain color, then it seems boring. With Dooney and Burke, people tend to notice it a bit more, since it's more vivid and such. Yeah, I don't buy hand bags or anything, and if they make men's messenger bags one day, I'd like to see what it'd look like. Then again, Dooney and Burke is strictly women's bags and such, so it'd probably look gay.

I, personally, don't see the point in wasting money on purses, well, expensive ones that is.

Hell, I call spending $30 on a gap purse expensive ;) haha.

I HATE Dooney and Bourke. I HATE HATE HATE IT. It's a complete jocked version of Louis Vuitton. They friggin piss me off.

While we're on this topic, XOXO and Guess piss the hell out of me because they jock off Gucci.

yeah, ive seen that first one too (or something similar). but either way, whether you like color or not, that doesnt make them less ugly. because theyre EVERYWHERE and i have to look at them too

I was going to get one of the original Dooney and Bourke (sp?) bags about a year ago and then I saw the price. I don't think I'd ever spend that much on a bag..

some people like those styles. apparently u guys dont lyk them. yeah i think dooney & bourke, louis vuitton, etc are ugly.

i really like coach tho. its expensive but cute (most of it, some of it is ugly).

get over it ppl. some brands are just really expensive, thats y theyre called 'brand names' or 'designer bags'

im aware that designer bags are going to be expensive, but i see no reason for them to be so damn ugly. i wouldnt even mind that much if everyone werent carrying them, but theyre everywhere and its awful

designer bags are usually made of better material and at a better quality than ur normal gap/old navy bags which are made in china or some country that u've probably will have a hard time to locate on the map in sweatshops where people literally get worked to death.. and they usually last forever..

d&b and coach are both american brands.. and they're products are actually much cheaper than gucci, fendi, lv.. i have a d&b bag cuz it's really cheap, and it lasts.. but i have the plain logo 1.. kinda sucked that they came out after the multi color LV ones came out.. but imo, LV is the leader of bags..

LV bags get more beautiful the older it is.. and the workmanship put into each bag is incredible.. i know old people who's been using the same LV bag for more than 20 years.. and it still looks great.. i haven't met any1 who has been using their $15 bag from target for the past 20 years though.. and think about it.. average lifespan of a $15 bag is what, at most 2 years? i rather spend $500 on a bag that'll last me a lifetime and still look fashionable 20 years later than a $15 that'll go outta style in like, a day.. it's the lines and the design that's just incomparable..

like, martha stewart got dissed about her bag that's worth like, tens of thousands of dollars during her trial.. it looks brand spanking new (since it's martha, she most likely takes GREAT care of it), and very wonderful and fashionable.. yet she got it like, 14 years ago.. and it didn't got tens of thousands of dollars when she got it..

so yea.. expensive bags have a reason to be expensive..

as for this new d&b design.. it's different and quirky.. very attention grabbing, don't u think?

but i'm saving for an LV bag.. i WAS gonna get this adorable coach bag like 2 months ago.. but then coach to me looks like a chanel knockoff cuz of the C..

it's all a matter of opinion. i think that lv is hideous. absolutely HIDEOUS. every single one of the designs i've seen by LV, i've hated. but hey, whatever. if others like it, suits them.

yeah i hate coach and d&b as well. i like my uh..kenneth cole purse? so hot.

it really is based on the material of the bag but i went shopping with my friend and we went to this "fake" purse store and they all looked pretty real if you can't tell reall purses to fake ones. and so i got a louis vuitton one for 15 bucks and it looks real.
