Project Handbags?

Unknown
edited November -1 in General Discussion
So while I and my Smith Democrat friends are out going to conventions and campaiging for elections like the mayor of Northampton and the governor of MA and supporting human rights, this, my friends, is what the Smith Republicans are doing: Project Handbags.

And I quote:
QUOTE
Louis Vuitton, Kate Spade, Prada, Gucci, and Pucci--it seems as if these names are
being flashed before our eyes by the handbags dangling off women's shoulders.
But how many of these bags are authentic? Why spend $400 for a label when you
can get a perfectly good copy on the street for $20 and only a trained eye would
be able to tell the difference? Why would it matter if a bag were authentic or
fake?

IT DOES MATTER!!!



Like, I understand supporting copyright laws and whatever, but doing it by combatting knockoff handbags???? It's ridiculous.

    What, the knockoffs or the campaign?
  • woodmaid8woodmaid8
    I guess knockoffs, I was trying to make a pun, but it didn't work. I'm a big fan of knockoffs so that gov needs to get off their back and on the back of other more important fashion related issues, like those ugly robe-y things the judges wear. Can we say tent? That style is not flattering on anyone's figure.

    Haha, no, they're definitely not flatter. Just becuase you're shaped like a tent doesn't mean you have to dress like one....

    That was actually a "What Not To Wear" quote! biggrin.gif We really are the same person!
  • woodmaid8woodmaid8
    Yes, we are. I could watch what not to wear for the rest of my life. I've been thinking lately that I would love for them to be stylists when I'm famous. They are so good. Maybe I should go on the show, there's always room for improvement.

    Do you use a sowing machine? I can't sow, so all of my ideas remain in my head.

    nah...but need to learn to.
    my tie purse i made, pics on my myspace blog. i got a regular canvas tote bag and hot glued ties together. i got the idea of hot glue instead of sowing from trading spaces. its stayed on there i've had the bag for like a month and it still looks damn good. lol.

    i want to make a bag with calvin and hobbes on it. i just need to find the right picture. its kinda going to look like the ok go bag i made like a few years back. that was such an awesome bag i made. everyone would stop me to ask me about who was on my bag, so i was basically promoting the guys and looking stylish. lol

    Dude, I could make a really sweet OK Go bag because I have a lot of OK Go shirts that don't fit. That's a fabulous idea, Denise.
