Coach bags? Like really??

What is it about brand names that people love? Why can’t we just settle for a regular forty dollar purse? There could be two exact same bags with the difference of just the logo that makes the price difference of three hundred dollars. Coach bags are big in the market. They’re one of those things that people won’t get sick of, especially women. I’m not going to lie. Even I get tempted to buy brand named items but only because the hype for it is so much. You’re thought of more highly in society. When you’re with friends, and they see the bag, it’s like you’re seen differently. You’re judged differently by what you have and what you can afford. Now those of us who can’t afford brand named 300 dollar bags end up going to places like China Town where they sell “Coach” Bags for 35-40 dollars. They’ll have the same logo on it but it’ll just be cheaper. You can walk around with it and most people won’t even realize that it’s fake, unless you’re living in New York, where most people know about this trick. ;) It’s not just bags, it’s all materialistic things like clothes, jewelry and perfume. The need to look good in society is a major issue and that’s what’s caused 300 hundred dollar purses to become 30 dollars.
