Designer clothes, shoes & purses come with a great reputation. These items are often made with higher quality materials and come with a warranty of some sort. The bigger the name or reputation, it seems the larger the price tag. Owning these brands for some, are a status symbol and to others are just a beacon of quality. Whatever the reason for wanting to own designer shoes, purses & clothing is personal. However, just because they bare a designer name, does not necessarily mean they have to come with a full designer price.
