Investing in a Luxury Designer Handbag

Here's the thing about designer handbags, they're expensive, but unlike other expensive things, when you resell you can actually end with more than the original value, recouping the price tag amount you paid for. The value of a luxury handbag is determined by the design house its from, the rarity of the designer collection and its current elite fashion status (possibly a year long wait list just to buy it). You may find one socialite or celeb toting a lux bag as a badge of pride.

If you're ready to use your savings and secure one of these fine investment pieces, going the pre-owned route may be a good baby step. Before actually acquiring a top tier luxury handbag at its regular retail price (and by that, we mean upwards $1,500 no less).

You can find true bag classics and Pre Owned Designer Authentic Watches at Inseller.com 

They have a variety of luxury designer hand bags available at any given time, but don't expect the bag to be available for more than a week. These bags-to-die-for get sold real fast.

The luxury consignment market is all about shopping for pre-owned designer items at the convenience of your mobile phone which means buyers exclusive access to top-tier fashion items. Bag hunters in the market for vintage finds or avid fashion bag collectors can always find something to add to their ever growing bag haul.

The Fall of Harajuku Fashion

Once upon a time, around the the mid-2000s - Ganguro, Hime and Decora girls littered the streets of Tokyo's fashionably notorious Harajuku district (a Tokyo neighborhood of roughly a square mile). Wielding their own candy-colored styles with flair- you can expect one or the other wild trademarks: the bleached hair, tanned skins, dramatic eye make up, plus the twirling parasols. They aren't hard to spot Harajuku kids would easily pose for a random photo op if asked nicely. But the creativity right up on the Harajuku streets is incredible.

However, the Harajuku movement is now being utterly killed by the emergence of fast fashion global chains H&M, Uniqlo and Forever 21. Setting up shop in the Harajuku district. These stores often showcased styles that are a huge contrast from the often bright, Kawaii eclectic styles found in the Harajuku streets. As Uniqlo's muted tones and minimalist clothing line took off, you can say the Japanese fashion scene got a bit tamer and less showy.

Sadly, the once wild frenetic energy and creativity of the fashionable wunderkind around Harajuku, known for greatly pushing the boundaries of Japanese fashion for years has now found its influence rapidly declining.

Burberry Prorsum: Cara Delevingne under an Umbrella

Perfect for London weather, Cara Delevingne rocks this muted stripe umbrella at the Burberry Prorsum Fall-Winter 2012-2013.

Quite a grip! Gloves studded in shiny rivets compliment the curve of the similarly adorned umbrella handles.

Burberry Prorsum??? Prosum? Opposum? No, its not mispelled, "Prorsum" is Latin for "forwards" and has mainly to do with the Burberry insignia featuring an Equestrian Knight.

Prorsum is part of the Burberry trademark.



In 1891, the first Burberry store opened in London at 30 Haymarket.

The Burberry Prorsum S/S14 show

Really soft on the pastels for the 2014 season for Burberry Prorsum.

Rockin that polka circle scarf plus check out that manly red murse!

Clutch and Go: Duffle bag with red polka dots

Burberry Runway alert: its reds, polkadots and micro floral prints for the Prorsum Menswear S/S14 runway.

Ah, the future of British menswear: Soft leather, relaxed fleece coats mixed with bright pops of colour dominated the Burberry runway.

The watch is aptly dubbed Windsor Red. I'm guessing the clutch is Cambridge Yellow? Well, Burberry is indeed back in Britain.



My kinda show: Max Chilton, Chen Kun, Suki Waterhouse, Tinie Tempah, Douglas Booth, Serena Williams and YES! Hugh Dancy. I wouldn't mind a Mads Mikkelsen sighting either at the Burberry Menswear S/S14 show.
