Designer handbags are anything but cheap. There’s no wonder that a whole side industry of replica purses is thriving. Women like those designer bags, but how to buy such things when one of them could actually feed your four kids for a month or two? Among designer purses, some of them are relatively inexpensive, Coach bags or Botkier falling into this category. Still, for some girls, even a few hundreds of dollars will still be way too much to spend on a purse, so the demand for counterfeits is there, even for cheaper bags. Many times, knockoffs look really good, making it very hard to tell that they aren’t original. However, most replicas need to be cheap, so the quality is far from being the best. Sloppy stitches, defective zippers or low quality hardware are only a few signs that warn you when you’re about to buy a fake, thinking it’s the real thing.

This video offers a good guide of making the difference between an original Coach handbag and a fake one. If you know more tips, please feel free to add to the comments. Thank you.

I finally took the courage to buy the Wagner steam cleaner I’ve been reading about since last year. I hesitated a lot because I wasn’t sure the 1500W power would be enough to clean the grout between the kitchen floor tiles. Now I’m happy I bought it, because it does a wonderful job. The grout comes out clean and disinfected. Well, I know it’s not the original color, and it probably won’t be again like new, but it looks much better than it used to when I cleaned it with a regular mop.

So, I’m happy and I can’t wait to host my Super Bowl party!
