How many times have you walked down the street and seen a woman who you just KNOW is carrying a fake bag? Why is it that seeing something like that, although completely none of our business and we may not even have a real one ourselves, makes us say in our head, "Oooh...that's a FAKE!"

Well if you are that woman, or happen to be friends with that woman, tell her to check out this post. In the video, Jenna from Fashion TV shows us when shopping for a new handbag hot to spot a fake vs. the real thing. Great information, especially when most women purchase their designer handbags from eBay! Note: eBay does allow fake handbags to be sold as authentic.

Another note: Jenna is from Fashion TV in the UK. The information still applies to us here in Baltimore. When she mentions pounds, keep in mind one British pound is roughly equal to $1.50 in the US. Quid is simply a nickname for pound, like moola for dollar in the US. Bet you didn't think you'd get a currency lesson today, did you?

Thanks to Gabrielle for mentioning that koodos does quite a big business in all fashion categories in the US as it ships internationally. But if you'd like to shop another site, shop bluefly.com. They have great deals on authentic designer handbags.
