Women like handbag. When women go out, there are lots of things that they need to take, such as cosmetics, mirrors, purse and cell phones. These things cannot be carried by their hands, so they choose handbags to serve as their friends. When you read at this you may see that women are troublesome, yes, to some extent. Women should makeup when they attend some formal occasions, so they need to take their cosmetic to refine their makeup. What is exactly the good handbag for women to take their belongings?

This stinks. I buy non leather bags, trying to live a cruelty-free lifestyle, but what can you do? I can still buy fabric bags, but they usually aren’t as durable. Oh well.

Interesting to say the least. I think that for so long, every item in our closets, and what we wear has been disposable or thought to be disposable. I think the real question is, if there is lead in the bags, and it is in contact with us, and as they wear it gets worse, how do you know it isn’t affecting us. Cancer is on the rise in this country, at major hospitals they are building new oncology units in order to house all of these patients. So the real question is, when are we going to see that this directly impacts our environment. The working conditions in China often are not good, and sometimes even not fair trade. The runoff from these items goes into their drinking water, and ours if it is made here. So the real question is, to support designers who are trying to make less of a footprint on the earth, like Stella McCartney, Linda Loudermilk, Muratori handbags etc. And buy handbags from companies that are doing their best to have stellar practices. They may not be the cheapest, but you cannot have it both ways, as it costs often 30% more to produce these items, in a fair trade place with chrome free leathers, vegetable tanned. It is not easy, but it needs to be done in order to preserve what we have. So the question is not whether or not their is a conspiracy with the leather handbag owners vs the others, the question is when are we going to take responsibility for our actions?? and when are “they” the companies going to take responsibilities and change their ways?

I felt the same way about REBECCA MINKOFFS outsourcing. I had just told my manager who went to check the new merchandise on the floor and told me it says made in China. Not that there is anything wrong with that, but I am a huge supporter for American made products…we need an economy boost. And this certainly explains RM’s minor price adjustment.

I bought an all leather hand bag. I just read the inside lable, it says 100% cowhide leather with polyvinyl chloride, made in china. there is no way to tell the difference between the leather and the vinyl trim. I think I will return it , but what do I buy now ?

I have an all leather bag that I bought at JC Penny, on the inside tag it says 100% cowhide leather with polyvinyl chloride trim, so that means it has lead in it, right ? Looking at the bag there in way to tell the difference between the leather and the trim. I’m thinking I will return it Penny’s but what is safe to buy now ?
