What is your signature
accessory?
Everyone most likely has some sort of
signature accessory. Some people spend big on high-end watches, some like designer
sunglasses, expensive shoes, etc. when you become noticed for that item that
becomes your signature or trademark. For Carrie Bradshaw on the popular Sex and the
City, one could say her trademark is signature shoes.
What is your signature accessory? If nothing comes to mind
then maybe its time to consider rewarding yourself with a signature wristlet. A
signature wristlet is not worth owning if it does not have a brand name, which can
make a statement about you. A leather signature purse is more about quality first
and foremost. You can be sure that utility will also be found in your selection.
Quality leather purses will last you more than 10 years if properly cared for so
why not make the investment and buy a quality signature wristlet?
The "It" Bag when you want to travel light is the
Wristlet. Essentially the same size and shape as a clutch, it includes a compact
wrist strap, which comes in handy for an active night out, and most importantly,
the handy strap can prevent you from leaving your bag behind. Wristlets are a great
idea for travel. Their compact size means you can pack several in the space
you would need or a single purse. You can take a different Wristlet for each
outfit. Plus they’re easy to throw in your briefcase or beach bag!
Large handbags are the norm for today’s work or play. But
when the sun goes down and your dressing up, designer or signature wristlet purses
have a distinctive look that is stylish and wont detract from an outfit in fact
they look adorable with any form of dress except maybe pajamas. “The evening bag of
the moment is a wristlet clutch,” declares one Los Angeles designer and stylist to
the celebrities. “Exotic leathers like python, especially the timeless classic,
crocodile are popular right now.” “Patent leather will be hot this year,” says
another New York designer “People want shiny and colorful.” She also agrees that
leathers, like crocodile are in great demand.
Here’s a look at some of the signature wristlets of the
moment, For those who can afford spend more on a small purse, the following top
designers offer a wide array of choices. Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent and Fendi all
offer expensive clutches that are amazing works of art. Some of the choices are -
alligator, lambskin, calfskin, and python. Another popular manufacturer of
signature wristlets is Coach. This well known company ensures that each purse
encompasses the perfect balance between style and functionality. For example, the
Zoe leather clutch coming in at around $250 is a sleek little bag combining a
modern look with classic detailing. Constructed in colorful Nappa leather with
leather trim, it has an inside zip pocket, a cell phone multi-purpose pocket and
secure turn lock closure. You can choose between chartreuse and brass. The Coach
signature purse is multipurpose. That gives you the flexibility of using your
leather bag for all occasions. While the priciest bags are certainly pretty, you
may not want to forfeit a fortune when buying a new wristlet purse. Consider Hobo
International, this company offers stylish clutches at affordable prices. According
to their website their product line is designed by women, for women. Most of their
wristlets are from $50 to $100.
Where to buy your signature wristlet? You may want to
check out eBay - there are deals to be found. Just remember to do a little research
before you buy. Lets use Coach handbags as an example. Here's what you can do to
protect yourself. Once you've found the perfect purse, check on the sellers "other
items for sale" link and "completed listings" link, make sure the majority of those
items are Coach products. Check that the seller is selling primarily Coach handbags
and has a Feedback rating of 99% or higher. Make sure the seller has sold at least
300 or more Coach handbags as well. I want to be clear that primarily Coach means
just that! You will be pretty safe if you follow these basic rules. A seller would
never reach the 99% positive mark because of complaints if they were fraudulent.
However, if they are selling mostly other types of items and then decide to sell
one Coach bag they picked up at a flea market, then this advice won't work and I
think you can see why. Remember, if the price looks to good to be true, it probably
is! Ebay can be a great place to buy signature wristlets. Are there fakes
on the site? Sure, But not as many as you may think. Still, you must use a little
common sense and do a little investigating of your own for a truly confident
purchase. Remember, a good seller will always answer your questions. The best place
to buy a designer wristlet is from a reputable on-line store. Now let's go
shopping!
