Here's the big not-so-secret: everyone is carrying fake designer purses. Might seem like a no-brainer for those of us already up on the thrifty trends, but a recent article exposes the fact that nearly 90% of all the Louis Vuitton bags swinging around on the arms of stylish women are, in fact, fake purses. That's a startling amount, folks, but it is a testament to the affordability and integrity of a well constructed replica.
   
Vice presidential hopeful Palin made the headlines with her fake purse scandal, which only goes to show that this trend goes all the way to the top. Fashion industry insiders are in a tizzy as they try to tell which is a replica, which is an original, when viewing paparazzi photographs of mid-level celebs.

Designer purses are hot and desirable, but at the exorbitant prices charged by big name brands like Chanel, they're also often unattainable. That is why we have seen a strong upswing of demand for gorgeous clutches and handbags which have all of the style and class of the original, and we have come to know what to look for.

Stylish and smart women are on the lookout for good stitching and clean lines. Know your product, ladies! It's all about getting the best replica, into which the most care has been put. It's a great time to be shopping for replica items. Interest is high, which means expectations are too. Design teams know what they're doing when they construct a handbag, which means that the ever-increasing consumer market for fake designer purses can expect to be doubly pleased by the product.
