not guilty?

i'm a big fan of the latest trend of fringe, and of course, any fan of fringe would delight in this bag. however, as a bag-a-holic, forever21 cannot fool me.

don't these look familiar? well, duh. gucci released their babouska line spring 2008. just because gucci released this bag last year doesn't mean you can copy it, forever21. i know some people will argue that their clothes also copy blah blah blah whatever. forever21's line of handbags are no different to the illegal replicas being sold on the internet and corner shops. it just makes me mad that they do these kind of things.

but if you do choose to support forever21 and their lack of creativity and intelligence, the bag is $34 whereas the gucci babouska shoulder bag is $2290. honestly, if you're looking for street cred, get a job and save for the gucci. but if i see you with the replica... shame on you. i'm pretty sure there's going to be a lawsuit filed against forever21 (not like this was the first time).
