Lust vs. Must – Valentino Handbag
Seldom do I find myself head over heels in love with Angelina Jolie’s fashion (although she’s awesome). But the white bag that is Valentino she was sporting last year is… Love at First Sight. The retail price for the genuine Valentino Histoire bag is marked in the $1.8k dollars. I found a replica for $269 (pictured below). And even the $269 is still obscene to pay for a replica. But I found a similar bag that has the colouring and the braided goodness. The picture at the right below is marked on sale at metrostyle.com for $25. Now that’s what I call a bargain and it does look expensive.
