You Can't Fake Fashion

If you ever shopped for designer bags/shoes/accessories on ebay, then you are definitely aware of how many fakes there are out there.  Over the years ebay has been more active about pulling auctions that are for counterfeit items.  Now eBay and Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) are launching a new campaign called "You Can't Fake Fashion."  50 exclusive totes were made available on the eBay store Fashion Vault.  Designers such as Coach, Betsy Johnson, Foley + Corinna, Calvin Klein, and Judith Leiber.  The designers were asked to take a bag and make it original.

The best part, was that I knew who designed most of the bags just by looking at their signature additions.  Coach had a turnlock, Betsy Johnson made theirs LOUD and colorful with buttons and pins, Anna Sui's had lace and a blue bow, Lily Pulitzer's had bright flowers, Tommy Hilfiger added a preppy nautical touch with a rope for the shoulder strap, and Stuart Weitzman's bag had sketches of shoes on it (and their shoes are TDF!).

They were all priced at a reasonable 150.00 and sold out ridiculously quickly.  Good news is that the regular You Can't Fake Fashion tote is still available for 35.00.
