Mulberry Alexa
Melie Bianco Ariana
A replica version of Mulberry
If you are like me, who loves fashion, then at one point or another you probably ran into the problem of falling in love with a product head over heels at first sight, but the one thing standing between you and IT is the price tag.
One of my current obsession is the Mulberry Alexa, priced around $1,600. If I save a bit here and there, sure I can afford one. However, should I purchase a $1,600 bag (great quality, genuine leather, and probably paying for the name Mulberry) Or should I find an alternative (great quality, genuine leather, not Mulberry)
Let's break my mind process down.
Q: Why am I in love with this bag
A: It's the perfect fall bag, it's laid back, there are multiple colors to choose from, the leather is extremely soft, it is very versatile, you can carry it or throw it over your shoulder.
Q: Am I in love with the design of the bag, or the designer label
A: I am in love with the bag, however one of the reasons that is keeping me from getting a knock off version is because I'm afraid the quality won't be as nice, and the seams work won't keep up (falling apart before the original). Not to mention the color dye job, as well as the softness of the leather. Last but not least, I would not want to betray a designer by supporting knockoffs.
Q: If there is an alternative to the Mulberry Alexa, and it's at a fraction of the cost would you trade in the Alexa for the alternative.
A: As much as I don't want to admit this, but given the situation and the time in my life, I would trade the Alexa if I could find an alternative.
Love, Meeeeshell
