These three companies; Juicy Couture, Botkier, and Kooba have joined such perennial favorites as; Louis Vuitton, Aramis, and Guchi as being 'must have' bags.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Juicy Couture fashion apparel company was started by Pamela Skaist-Levy and Gela Taylor in 1994 as a designer t-shirt collection. By the late 1990's Juicy Couture made a foray into women's sportswear and tracksuits. Establishing a popular reputation for their urban-influenced designs and comfortable wear, Juicy Couture tracksuits quickly became popular when celebrities such as Madonna, Jennifer Lopez, and Cameron Diaz were photographed wearing the label. With the success of the women's tracksuit, Juicy Couture expanded their line to include casual apparel, shoes, swimwear, and handbags.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, Juicy Couture handbags are known for being lush, fun, and flashy. Available in a variety of styles such as hobo, shopper, satchels, and even diaper bags; having a Juicy Couture bag on your arm or shoulder expresses an attitude of self-assured and carefree with a touch of sassy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Botkier line of handbags was launched by a budding fashion photographer in New York City, Monica Botkier. She began designing her own handbags because she wanted a bucket bag that she could carry her photography equipment in and still look stylish among the fashion-conscious crowd she had for clientele. Her first bag, the Trigger, impressed her friends, co-workers, and clientele so much that she was inspired to try her hand in the competitive world of designer handbags. With a professional's eye for detail and artistry, Botkier launched her first collection in 2003. Since the initial success, the label has grown and expanded to include such lines as Black Rose, Bryant, Cairo, and Bianca.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The leading designer of modern-vintage handbags is Kooba. The label was started by a mother and daughter team, Bonnie and Abbe Held in 1998. The use of older designs with modern fabrics and hardware got Kooba bags noticed right away by fashion show co-ordinators. The handbags were featured in runway shoes beginning in 1999 and soon after, the orders for Kooba bags exceeded the supply. Nowadays, Kooba is regularly featured in glamour magazines such as Glamour and In Style. Available in satchel, bucket, hobo styles and more, the line is noted for its designs which are stylish but not trendy; allowing Kooba bags to easily complement any outfit in a wardrobe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With such a wide selection of luxury handbags to choose from, now is a great time to find the bag that is for you.

Three of the most prominent makers of handbags in the US are Botkier, Dooney &amp;amp; Bourke, and Kooba.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Botkier label was launched in New York City by fashion photographer, Monica Botkier. Looking for a bag she could carry her equipment in and still look stylish among the crowd she photographed, Botkier began to design her own handbags. Her first bag, the Trigger, impressed her friends, co-workers, and clientele so much that she was inspired to try her hand in the competitive world of designer handbags.

With that success, the label has grown and expanded to include such lines as Black Rose, Bryant, Cairo, and their most popular line, the Botkier Bianca bags.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Dooney &amp;amp; Bourke label was launched in South Norwalk, Connecticut in 1975 by Peter Dooney and Frederic Bourke. Their first products were surcingle belts and braces, sometimes called suspenders, The belts and braces were released in many colors and patterns which made them an instant hit at department stores. In 1981, the Dooney &amp;amp; Bourke company expanded their product line with fine-leather handbags. Two years later, in 1983, Dooney &amp;amp; Bourke introduced All-Weather Leather (AWL), which was a 100% waterproof cowhide and this became the standard for all their leather purses. The waterproofing of a leather purse along with the minimal care that went with it, made Dooney &amp;amp; Bourke purses the most popular designer handbag produced in the United States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, Dooney and Bourke handbags are available in more than twenty different lines of purses. The styles range from crocodile leather to canvas totes and cowhide leather bags with zebra patterns to their most popular line, the Dooney &amp;amp; Bourke Alto handbag, with its classic lines and styling.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The leading designer of modern-vintage handbags is Kooba.

Hence this is the best idea to get them from the renowned showrooms or online shops. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you want to know more about &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.cooldesignerhandbags.com"&gt;Designer Handbags&lt;/a&gt; then feel free to visit &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.cooldesignerhandbags.com"&gt;Coach Handbags&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Article Directory: &lt;a rel="nofollow" href="http://ezinearticles.com"&gt;EzineArticles&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4760185954416403388-133717092906303126?l=kooba-handbag-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kooba-handbag-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/133717092906303126/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://kooba-handbag-guide.blogspot.com/2009/12/tips-to-buy-designer-kooba-handbags.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4760185954416403388/posts/default/133717092906303126'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4760185954416403388/posts/default/133717092906303126'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kooba-handbag-guide.blogspot.com/2009/12/tips-to-buy-designer-kooba-handbags.html' title='Tips to Buy Designer Kooba Handbags'/><author><name>Womens Handbags</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01403774160728134541</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4760185954416403388.post-2785575414990487261</id><published>2009-12-10T21:14:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-10T21:14:00.143-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='kooba handbags'/><title type='text'>Kooba and The New Classics</title><content type='html'>What is it that imbues one handbag with timeless quality, while others are dated after a single season?  Expert craftsmanship plays a large part in this phenomenon, as do forward-thinking, though traditionally rooted, designs.  Classic handbags are rule-breakers (despite being informed by carefully studied rules), that may be worn by successfully by each woman in her own distinct way, whether she is 18 or 80.  Ultimately however, it is a certain je ne sais quoi that catapults a handbag from “accessory” to “legend”.  The Hermes Birkin, the Louis Vuitton Speedy, the Marc Jacobs Stella and the Chanel 5.55 shot from the 20th century poised to stay relevant, respected and revered throughout the 21st.  Close on their tails are the nine handbags profiled below.  All have what it takes to catch up to those Grande Dames of accessories, and perhaps even outshine their legends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Novak by Alexander McQueen - $1,200&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This expertly constructed purse resembles a decadent shell, its hard exterior conveying strength, power and mystery:  Does her Novak hold a subpoena or is it hiding expensive French lingerie?  Only the wearer knows for sure.  McQueen’s Novak is a classic take-anywhere handbag for any haughty, icy, femme fatale (or for anyone who harbors one within and seeks to offer the world a subtle glimpse of her).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The L’Orient Ariane by Kate Spade - $195&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reminiscent of Chanel’s legendary 5.55, Kate Spade’s L’Orient Ariane brings American insouciance to the sophisticated continental shoulder bag.  Whether you are seeking to add a glamorous accent a serious suit, or a dash of grandeur to your favorite jeans and tee, the L’Orient Ariane is a handbag for every occasion.  Available in a variety of shades from “Luxuriant Black” to “Feminine Fuchsia” to “Whimsical Watermelon”, at only $195 each, you can practically purchase one in every color, for the price of a single 5.55.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Nicole Carryall by A+N - $185&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The “love child” of LL Bean and Prada, A+N’s Nicole Carryall expertly combines New England utilitarianism with European sleekness.  This bag is a must-have for the everywoman in every woman.  The Nicole Carryall’s functionality lends itself well to the schedule of the modern woman: careerist, athlete, social butterfly, adventuress and glamour-puss, rolled into one.  As designer Anna Medvedeva says: “We are not trying to create the new “It Bag” of the moment, nor are we trying to catch ever-changing fashion trends.  Instead, we work on creating the ultimate everyday bags so versatile, that everyone can bring her their own style to them.”  Made from weatherproof nylon canvas, in a trend-defying design, the Nicole Carryall transcends not only time, but also the elements, in functionally decadent fashion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Large Saddle Bag by Andrea Brueckner - $525&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The woven leather of Andrea Brueckner’s Large Saddle Bag carries a whiff of “I picked this up in the Mediterranean” artisanal exoticism, while its embossed sheen provides a patina of urbane polish.  At first glance, the Saddle Bag may appear to be the gregarious grandchild of the Bottega Veneta hobo, but closer inspection reveals that it is a true original:  With painstaking attention to detail, designer Brueckner has created lightness from suppleness, airiness from the earthly.  This is anything but your average handbag – don it and you’ll be sure to encounter a chorus inquiring “where’d you get that bag?!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Roxanne by Mulberry – &amp;amp;#8356;595&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The ultimate in hippie luxe, Mulberry’s Roxanne conjures imagery of well-heeled bohemian icons Talitha Getty and Marissa Berenson.  Embodying both uptown pedigree and downtown street credibility, the Roxanne, like all natural beauties, only gets better with age.  This is the perfect day bag for the woman who is more inclined to choose Masai beads over diamonds, to pair with her little black dress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Maya Tote by Kooba - $655&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“The Maya bag is for a classy working woman who is fashion conscious and knows how to make a smart handbag investment.” says Shopbop.com buyer Alle Fister.  This supple, statement bag is not for the faint of style, but it is the perfect everyday handbag for the particularly fashion-forward.  A graduate of the Marc Jacobs School of Understated Opulence, the Maya Tote oozes style without screaming “look at me”.  Kooba spokesperson Katie Fox says: “Kooba has combined functionality with style, making it easy for the modern woman to keep herself organized with plentiful pocket room.”   This is the perfect bag for the downtown girl, with a sensible, suburban past: its large size accommodates well-organized efficiency, but the design is all cosmopolitan cool.  It’s the bag for hip girls who have successfully transitioned from being “restless in Raleigh” to “chic in the city”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Metal Mesh Ruffle Clutch by Felix Rey - $196&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This isn’t your grandma’s evening bag!  Felix Rey’s youthful alternative to the dowager-favored minaudiere comes in three shimmering, metallic shades to accentuate every outfit, and highlight every skin tone.  The Ruffle Metal Clutch is everything an evening bag should be:  small, sparkling and with a sense of humor.  Felix Rey designers Sulaika Zarrouk and Lily Rafii have carefully created a bag with “hanging ruffles [that] move and catch the light, which creates an almost liquid effect”.  Both designers are long-time fans of metallics and evening bags, and says Zarrouk, they sought to create “a more modern shape with this classic material.”  Hold it as a clutch or utilize its small handle for extra “security”.  This is the perfect bag for the charming, bubbly party girl inside of us all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Fan Hobo by Botkier&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Fan Hobo epitomizes understated luxury.  It’s ideal for the woman who prefers to speak through her presence, rather than her accessories.  It’s ideal for the woman who is most comfortable in cashmere and pearls.  It’s ideal for the woman who knows that although one may not be a fashion risk-taker, she can still cultivate her own unique personal style.  Reminiscent of Gucci’s classic Medium Hobo, the Fan Hobo is always appropriate and will always exude subtle elegance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Tote by Bulga - $405&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, you’ve finally realized that your “Hello Kitty” handbag has to go and you should move onto something more grown up, have you?  Enter Bulga’s tote to the rescue!  While the silhouette of the handbag says “adult”, the playful, rainbow-like crescent and dangling tassel add playful elements.  It’s a must-have for any woman who is committed to celebrating the little girl within.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sacha Phillip is a freelance writer in New York City.

It is hand bag. A handbag is often fashionably-designed, and is used to hold a number of items such as a wallet , keys, makeup, a hairbrush, ladies product, and other several items. Handbags are best liked by women as it has proven their best friend. Women's handbags serve double purpose. One as the keeper of their valued belongings and the second as reflector of their status in the society.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Articles placed in handbags are from a sewing needle to a latest and compulsory cell phone and credit cards. Though the handbags are not worn close to the skin, handbags of different design add feather to your personality. There are so many handbags on offer for you to select from to complement your figure and go with most of your outfits. Having the right handbag that appropriately matches with the style you are sporting is the most important part of your outfit. Whenever you are deciding to grab one of your designer handbags it is important to purchase the correct size that would match your outfits. For instance a large bag is very casual and should only be carried when you are wearing loose top or a skirt to match with whereas small bags with a shoulder strap are great match to a sun dress or jeans with a close-fitting top.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Considering this, the Hand Bag manufacturers have created several different Designer Hand bags. Which are are Hermes handbags, Hermes Birkin, Hermes Kelly, Hermes JPG , Birkin bags, Designer handbags, Chanel handbags, Chanel quilted bag, Chanel Tote, Louis vuitton handbags, LV handbag, Gucci handbags, Gucci Hobo, Fendi Spy, Fendi handbags, Chole handbags, Chole Paddington, Mulberry Handbags, Mulberry bayswater, Balenciaga handbags, Balenciaga Le Dix, Dior Handbags, Jimmy Choo handbags, Prada Handbags, Kooba Handbags, Marc Jacob handbags, YSL handbags, Miu Miu Handbags, Versace handbags,Thomas Wylde handbags.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While purchasing any bag one has to be ensured about the quality of the material used, it may be fabric, leather or hardware since all designer handbags are costlier than normal handbags in the market. Not only the quality of the material but also workmanship plays a vital role for making the product lasting long. Also an important consideration while purchasing a handbag is the colour which also plays a vital role. Availability of different colours handbags allows you to carry handbag that matches the colour of your outfit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The quality of the handbag in one's possession surely reflects the one's status in the society.

We may have our special purse - the bag that we have been saving up for, but in end it won't work with all our outfits. We need more than one bag, and we can't have all of them in designer labels. Which brings us to the question: Is "Replica" a Dirty Word?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, it's really a decision for each woman to make, according to budget, taste, and priorities. But let's look at the benefits of having a few replicas in your collection.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, replica handbags are usually better-made than in the past, and crafted with such precise details that it is quite difficult to spot them as replicas. If you avoid the street vendors and use online markets and auctions, you will find a good variety of replica choices that resemble their designer counterparts quite closely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes, replica handbags may be half the price of the originals, and yes, the material used &lt;em&gt;can&lt;/em&gt; be of poor quality, giving them a shorter life-span. And yes, there is always chances of getting caught by that sharp-eyed friend, or stranger. But where's the shame in saving some hard-earned dollars?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But before you buy a replica, do some thorough research on the internet. Check the feedback from customers and those who have dealt with that particular auction seller. Gather information on the type of leather used, the quality of the zippers, attachments and straps. Needless to say, while high-quality replicas will cost more than those you would get on a street corner, that extra expense is probably worth it. And you'll still pay far less than an authentic designer handbag.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, while these replicas very closely resemble the designers, they can not be sold as authentic - though they often are anyway. Authentic designer handbags, such as Fendi, Prada or Dior, have registered trademarks that cannot be duplicated without authorization. All others are breaking the law.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, as you might guess, the law often doesn't stop a disreputable "entrepreneur" from doing what he or she wants - especially in countries where enforcement is questionable. However, with some solid research on authentic designer handbags, you can be a prudent shopper. The goal is to buy a replica when you desire one, and not be tricked when you're seeking a designer bag.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whatever your individual choice happens to be, there are definitely some advantages to choosing a replica at times. A few of the benefits: &lt;ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Prices are lower. Designer handbags are usually very expensive. You can start to build your dream collection at a reasonable price by choosing some high-quality replicas.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;They're easy to find. If you choose a replica, you'll certainly have no trouble finding one - so forget waiting lists and out-of-stock merchandise.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;There's a vast selection. Online shops and eBay have vast varieties of styles, colors, prices and features.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Styles are very similar. Well-made replica handbags very closely resemble the style of the originals.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So if you're on a budget, high-quality replicas can indeed make a great, affordable alternative to designer handbags.

You most likely have come across tons of scammers, here are some guidelines and information to help you in your venture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Buyers BEWARE of some of the Kooba handbags being sold as 100% Authentic on eBay! You can actually find actual real Kooba on Ebay, but many are fake Kooba designer handbags! They are called "mirror-image replicas" and many of the Kooba bags on Ebay are this type of handbag. They are not the same quality as a authentic Kooba! If you do attempt to buy a Kooba handbag on Ebay, make certain the seller offers a money-back guarantee. Take your bag to an authorized dealer immediately if you are unsure of its authenticity in case the seller has a limit on time for returns. Beware of eBay powersellers who use "PRIVATE" listings or who have their feedback as "PRIVATE". Most sell fake bags!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another way to spot fake Kooba designer handbags is with the TAGS! Kooba tags are two-sided &amp;amp;amp; folded and the string is connected in the corner. Most 2007 tags are two sided &amp;amp;amp; folded and the string is connected in the middle. Late 2007/2008 bags have a single sided tag with the string in the middle. Authentic Koobas from previous seasons had the single sided tag (so you may find an authentic pre-2006 Kooba with the non-folded tag). Counterfeit bags were much easier to spot back in 2006, the scammers have gotten very good now. Initially, you could spot a fake Kooba designer handbag by looking for anything other than the "brown string" attached to the Kooba tag. Now, most of the fakes have the brown string also. BUT 99.9% of the brown Kooba tags that have anything other than a brown string attached are FAKE!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are legitimate sources for Kooba handbags online, begin by making sure the source has a directory that's up-to-date These tips shop help you avoid &lt;a href="http://www.squidoo.com/Wholesale-Designer-Handbag-Suppliers/" rel="nofollow" target="_new"&gt;fake designer handbags&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Happy Shopping!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Check Out a GREAT Source &lt;a href="http://www.designerhandbagwholesalers.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_new"&gt;DesignerHandbagWholesalers.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Article Directory: &lt;a href="http://ezinearticles.com/" rel="nofollow"&gt;EzineArticles&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4760185954416403388-2417249406737934470?l=kooba-handbag-guide.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kooba-handbag-guide.blogspot.com/feeds/2417249406737934470/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://kooba-handbag-guide.blogspot.com/2009/12/avoiding-fake-kooba-designer-handbags.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4760185954416403388/posts/default/2417249406737934470'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4760185954416403388/posts/default/2417249406737934470'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kooba-handbag-guide.blogspot.com/2009/12/avoiding-fake-kooba-designer-handbags.html' title='Avoiding Fake Kooba Designer Handbags - Simple Guidelines Looking For Designer Handbags For Resale'/><author><name>Womens Handbags</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01403774160728134541</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4760185954416403388.post-2565369151508179294</id><published>2009-12-01T23:46:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-13T23:47:03.677-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Privacy Policy and Contact</title><content type='html'>If you require any more information or have any questions about our privacy policy, please feel free to contact us by email at wwday3@gmail.com.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We value the privacy of our visitors is of extreme importance to us.
