How To Sell Wholesale Brand Name Handbags From Home

You can sell wholesale brand name handbags from home by utilizing the following effective strategies. If you currently sell from home, or are considering selling designer handbags from your house, you should see how you can utilize and adapt these tips to your business.

Strategy #1
Advertise your wholesale brand name handbags through Craigslist.com. You can write as many ads as you want through this free classified site. In addition to simply posting an ad for a Coach or Nine West handbag, you can also get creative and make classified ads for combinations of different bags, or even for wholesale lots. In addition to Craigslist.com there are many other free classified ad sites that you can use to market your wholesale merchandise. As you build your business, you will want to consider sites such as eBay and Amazon, where even though you will have to pay to list your goods, you will also be exposed to a much larger audience.

Strategy #2
Post flyers in your local supermarket, bank, and library for your handbag business. Because your profit margin is potentially very large, even if you spend an hour distributing flyers, and make only one sale, it can be well worth it. Let’s say you leave a stack of flyers at three separate locations, and as a result you sell a Guess handbag for $80, that you purchased from my closeout business for only $30, well that’s a $50 profit for an hour of work plus the cost of printing the flyers. What if that customer returns to buy more handbags in the future? Look at how much your home based handbag business can benefit from spending just an hour leaving sales flyers around your neighborhood.

Strategy #3
Run weekly in house sales parties for your friends and neighbors. You can attract people to your sales party by carrying brands such as Coach, Steve Madden, Nine West, Jessica Simpson, Guess, and Lucky Brand. Always ensure that you are only dealing with authentic brand name bags which you can purchase at below the regular wholesale price. You will be able to compete against established retailers while conducting your business the right way. If you want to give them an extra reason for attending your sales event, offer to donate a portion of each sale to a favorite local charity of their choice.

Wholesale Italian Designer Handbags: Why Are They So Popular?

The popularity of wholesale Italian designer handbags is seemingly universal. I receive wholesale requests from wholesale buyers as far as Nigeria, Zambia, Malaysia, Mexico, and New Zealand for brand name Italian handbags.
Their popularity seems to be directly related to their high quality craftsmanship, which in turn translates into brands which are internationally known for durability and high quality. Especially now that Chinese manufactured no name brand handbags are exported throughout the world, it is important for a high end boutique to distinguish itself by focusing the brands that shoppers already know and appreciate, such as Coach, Guess, Steve Madden, Nine West, and Michael Kors.
Although a brand name might not be produced in Italy, the point I would like to make is that the importance of selling a wholesale brand name pocketbook is crucial in a market flooded with generic merchandise.
If you are interested in the handbag business, you should take a look at:

OK... Mr. Obama

2011-09-22T20:19:00.001-05:00

NEW YORK (AFP)--U.S. President Barack Obama won't intervene in the Troy Davis capital punishment case which has sparked protests, because it is "not appropriate" to become involved in specific state cases, a spokesman said Wednesday.

"Dating back to his time in the Illinois State Senate, President Obama has worked to ensure accuracy and fairness in the criminal justice system, especially in capital punishment cases," Press Secretary Jay Carney said ahead of the planned execution.

"However, it is not appropriate for the president of the United States to weigh in on specific cases like this one, which is a state prosecution."

The comments came as Davis's lawyers were filing last-ditch appeals to delay the execution of the man in Georgia for his conviction in the 1989 killing of a police officer

Diva - My secret wish: I want land...

If you want to be a millionaire, talk to millionaires.

You have decided you want a better life, more money, more free time, a bright future, an exciting life. Make sure you talk to people who are doing it! Do not listen to your negative, bitter and twisted neighbour.

"People who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those who are doing it."Anonymous

You can do it!

You have had it with your present lot in life, you are going to do something about it, you have an idea, a business idea to get you out of your present situation in life, you decide to tell everyone about your new business adventure, wait for it, here it comes, 'you can't do that, that will never work, it's to risky, just stick to what you know, sounds crazy to me, you've got more chance of waking up on the moon'.

Don't you just love family!

Of course they only have your best interest at heart, they don't want to see you get hurt. They honestly believe they are giving you good advice, in some cases they probably are, but if you are looking at an opportunity where you know people are doing great and leading the life that you want, they are probably giving you WRONG advice.

Do not listen to people who haven't done it, if you want to be a millionaire, talk to millionaires, you can do anything in life, as long as you have the desire. Follow your heart and if it doesn't work out, get up, dust yourself off and try again, do not quit until you get to live the life of your dreams.

There is an old saying, 'Nothing is impossible to a willing mind'

If you want something bad enough, you will get it!

Someone contacted me recently and said, 'most work from home opportunities are a scam! I have spent thousands joining this company and that company, only to find out, that what they told me initially was all lies. How do I know that the next opportunity isn't a scam?'

I guarantee that this person never worked any of the businesses they tried, they signed up and because they paid money to join, they expect an income right away! When they're not a millionaire in six months, the business opportunity is a scam, they have done very little, if anything in six months, but expect to be RICH.

The trouble with a lot of businesses, is they promise fast money, get rich quick, earn six figures in a month, when this doesn't happen people get discouraged and leave.

The other problem is people don't want to work, they think that when they sign up to a business, that business owes them a living, you have to work at any business and that's the word that scares people, WORK.

To start with, you NEED a mentor and a system to follow, attend seminars, mix with the people who are doing it and are successful at whatever the business is.

Remember, if you want more from life, if you want to be successful, wealthy and financially free, desire is what you need and lots of it.

Businesses are sometimes hard, but persevere and NEVER, NEVER QUIT!

"When nothing seems to help, I go and look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that blow that did it - but all that had gone before." Jacob Riis

top 10 ways to live rich

2011-08-08T22:11:00.000-05:00

While very few of us will reach the ranks of the world's billionaires, it doesn't mean we can't live like them.

And we don't have to shell out several million to do so.

That's because a number of companies are offering temporary use of high-end products and services such as yachts, exotic cars, luxury handbags, and even personal chefs and stylists.

In Pictures: Top 10 Ways To Live Rich
So while you may not be able to call it your own, you still get every benefit of living the rich life.

"We call it the Luxury Access Revolution," says Milton Pedraza, CEO of the Luxury Institute, a research company that provides luxury information to high-net-worth individuals and the companies that cater to them. "It makes it easy for you to say, 'I'm not going to buy it. I'm going to carve out the experience and buy the experience,' because [people] don't want the hassle of owning the possession. You're seeing it across many more categories."

NetJets, a Berkshire Hathaway-owned company that began offering fractional jet ownership in 1986, caught on to customer desire for the luxe life with minimal commitment in 2001. That's when it introduced the Marquis Jet Card, which allows the user to sublease a NetJets fractional share of which Marquis Jet Partners is the owner. Individuals may pre-buy 25 hours of yearly flight time for $119,900 (excluding additional charges like tax, fuel, etc.).

Got time to kill between flights? Why not blow $3,000 on a Fendi bag? Chances are a terminal near you has that and other luxury goods for sale. Sneak a peek here.
Several other companies are following suit.

Home Cooking
Private Chefs, which has staffed the homes of Richard Branson and Madonna, will dispatch a personal cook to yours for as little as a day. Be prepared to pay a $100 agency fee plus $35 per hour, and everything else is taken care of, from the shopping and cooking to serving and cleanup.

"This is the part of our business that's been increasing steadily in the past year," says Christian Paier, PCI president. The company gets an average of 10 requests per week in each of its eight offices located in Beverly Hills, Calif.; Palm Beach, Fla.; Dallas; London; New York; Las Vegas; Seattle; and Washington, D.C. "It appeals," Paier continues, "to a lot more people than the full-time thing. It's affordable; anybody can do it." His customers often "want to splurge and have a wonderful experience, whether it's just them and their spouse, or a small dinner for six or eight friends. People absolutely love it."

It's hard not to feel privileged when an executive chef is serving you gourmet food, but when it's not simply your primary residence, but rather your only one, cabin fever tends to set in.

Solution? Get an apartment in Paris.

Ooh-La-La Life
Yes, it may be temporary, but opt for one of the exquisite, fully furnished pieds-a-terre available through ParisLuxuryRentals.com, and you're practically guaranteed an authentic experience. The company offers short- and long-term rentals in select neighborhoods, including Saint-Germain-des-Pres, Ile St. Louis, Le Marais and the Latin Quarter. To live like a local without the hassle, the company offers an optional daily or weekly housekeeping service, and an optional car and driver.

A 2,000-square-foot apartment, for example, which is considered very large for Paris, would run for about $3 million, and that's without taxes and the cost of maintaining such an investment. However, a brief stay in one of ParisLuxuryRentals.com's similarly sized dwellings, which combine the spaciousness and privacy of an apartment with the amenities of a hotel, might only cost about $10,000 per week at the higher end of the spectrum.

"It's a place of their own," says CEO Claude Nederovique. "They live like Parisians. They can really participate in life, [which is] a completely different experience [from a hotel]."

Nederovique saw the number of people requesting his service double last year. 90% of his clientele come from the U.S., and most rent from one week to one month, though some stay as long as three months.

$10,000 for a martini? It's just one on our list of world's most decadent cocktails. But better sip slowly--while delicious, these tipples will cost you.
Handbag Heaven
Even those who just want to dress like a socialite, but can't bring themselves to part with $1,200 for a Gucci handbag, can do it affordably with Bag Borrow or Steal, a site that lends customers high-end bags and jewelry from designers like Chanel, Versace and Dior, for a weekly or monthly fee.

"Borrowing is really about freedom, access and convenience," says Lynn Ridenour, senior vice president of marketing. "It gives [customers] greater access to a vast inventory of luxury accessories and the opportunity to indulge in more, more often."

Is there a downside? Of course: In the end, you do have to give it all back.

Still, says Pedraza, "There's no question that [the trend of temporary use] will grow. It is such a great convenience where you can buy the experience, not the depreciating assets.

First Vacation

Prepping for Your First Vacation

Author: David Williams

So, your boss finally gave you enough time off from work that you are able to take a 'real vacation'. So, what do you do now? Where do you go? And how much can you afford in terms of really getting a 'quality' vacation in? For many people who start off with their first vacation experience, they often find that a lot of the steam is taken out of their sails before they even get a chance to book or reserve anything simply due to the fact that there is so much more than one would think when trying to plan the perfect vacation. From figuring out where to stay (and in what country or state) to wading through the endless list of hotels, rental car agencies and plane flights- it's enough to drive anyone crazy. For these reasons (and others), it may be worth it to hire a professional travel agent to advise you on your first vacation.

Vacations don't have to be the pain in the rear that many people make them out to be though. In fact, most vacations and vacation planning goes off without a hitch. The real problems come when you don't take the sufficient time that is needed in order to effectively execute a great vacation experience. Again, this is another reason why having a travel agent help you out may be a good idea. You see, a travel agent can help keep you organized, and as many of us are already so preoccupied with a million different things that are going on in our lives, this can be a huge relief to us.

Travel agents are typically experienced as “experts” in travel for certain areas of the country. Think of it as someone who has traveled extensively in one part of the country and therefore, is extremely familiar with that particular section of the country. This gives them an advantage over other, ordinary people like yourself who may be resorting to the Internet or books to help you gain a false sense of familiarity before you head out to travel there. Travel agents can give you the inside scoop on what hotels to stay at as well as what restaurants are good to eat at, what sights you definitely will not want to miss as well as other fun activities, cultural things to keep in mind and more when you travel.

In the end, planning a vacation may feel more overwhelming than it did at the onset, which is why hiring a travel agent would most certainly benefit you and any other parties involved in your travel plans. Once your vacation plans are set, make sure that you plan out what you will need. For instance, just because it is the middle of the warm season wherever you are traveling does not necessarily mean that you should leave your sweaters and sweatpants at home. Always plan for the unexpected without going overboard. With many airlines now charging significantly more money for extra baggage that you bring on board the plane, planning to pack light is key. If you are not sure what to pack, enlist the help of your travel agent or someone else who is familiar with the area that you are traveling to. If all else fails, the Internet is always an option for additional information that you are still unsure of; just beware of the source!

Fashion in Today's World

2010-01-22T11:09:00.000-06:00

In the past, it was just enough to have something adequate to wear and people were not really concerned about design or things like style and uniqueness. But fashion has come a long way since then and the populations interest has gone beyond mere functionality and necessity. Fashion, in todays world, is deemed an expression of your personality; a statement of uniqueness, style, and lets face it - even social status.
Although it is important for people to cater to their fashion needs and requirements as dictated by the society they move in; affordability has always been crucial. The issue of whether to purchase expensive designer clothes or make do with something low priced but of lesser quality, has brought many a dilemma to people who are fashion conscious. Here's some good news, though. In more recent times, self-definition and uniqueness through fashion is not just confined to haute couture clothes anymore. There is a viable alternative presented by prevailing designer clothes trends.

Fashion Clothes vis-a-vis Designer Clothes There are clothes uniquely designed and made for a particular person usually handled by renowned fashion designers. These are often viewed as markedly expensive because they showcase the creative originality of the designer. The clothing material cost and the designer talent fee of this type of clothes are extraordinarily priced.

The current fashion trend offers fashion lines of designer clothes bearing the designer's trademark of high quality but is more reasonably priced and affordable. The truth is it was not the designer who personally created the fashion line; rather a legal agreement has been entered into for the legitimate use of the designer's logo. Although it is not personally created by the designer themselves, the manufacturers are obliged to meet the standards set by the designer to preserve their reputation. The designer has to approve all products that the manufacturers create under the logo's fashion line; thus there is still that assurance of high quality. The obvious advantage of this is the considerable reduction in price mainly because the manufacturers save money with the cutback on designer talent fees and marketing costs that include product launching parties and fashion shows.

With this set up designer clothes is indeed a more viable option for consumers, who want to have the kind of clothes that bear the logo of their favorite designer in their wardrobe yet are hesitant to pay sky-high prices. Though designer clothes are still relatively expensive in a lot of ways; they are much more affordable and more sensible to hanker for, compared to the high class exclusive fashion dresses that are personally created by the couturier themselves. Also, as everyday clothes go, they are much more acceptable and appropriate.

These designer clothes with the value and characteristics of exclusive fashion clothes created by top designers most certainly allow you to make your own unique fashion statement revealing your personality and style. You can even extend your wardrobe by using the techniques of mix and match for a more individualized style, exhibiting you r flair for the names and logos of your favorite fashion designers without carrying the burden of soaring price. So make your fashion statement with affordable, high quality designer clothes - now.

Stay Organized with these Beautiful Handbags

2010-01-20T16:34:00.000-06:00

Author: Annamarya

Imagine this – your co-worker invites you to a special gala. You have the perfect outfit in mind – a new Michael Kors black sequins dress paired with Cesare Paciotti black stilettos. But what about a clutch – and all those necessities you need to bring?

It’s a problem most woman face, finding a small purse that not only matches your outfit but also carries all the essentials, like your cell phone, wallet, keys and make up bag. Instead, you end up with a tiny number, one that only fits two credit cards, your Driver’s License, a pen, eyeliner and lip gloss, and keys. The worst part? While going for your keys before leaving, you unknowingly drop your loose Driver’s License, not realizing until you get home. Really, it’s a drag.

If you’re ready to shy away from the “Oops, I dropped my credit card and lipstick” fiasco of a tiny clutch, check out the list below for bags that are as luxurious and voguish as they are spacious and organized.

The Shido Bag

A purse organizer and clutch all in one, The Shido Bag is one beautiful evening handbag every woman out on the town must own. Featuring a stunning black satin exterior with a fold over top and magnetic snap enclosure, The Shido Bag is lined with elastic pockets so you can hold all the important necessities - like your cell phone, wallet and car keys – firmly in place. So now not only can you keep yourself organized, you can also easily find what you’re looking for when digging around your bag sightless. Plus, a dazzling white and olive Austrian crystal, which hides the snap closure, adds a touch of complexity and grace to this classic evening bag, allowing it to work as a sophisticated clutch for a neighborhood dinner party and a refined bag for a fundraising gala. With The Shido Bag, your little black dress will never be the same.

The Nicole Bag

Similar to the Shido Bag, The Nicole Bag is not only the perfect accessory to any flirty cocktail outfit, it’s also a must-have purse organizer. The Nicole Bag features a lovely brown-tinted black satin exterior with a fold over top and magnetic snap enclosure. It is also lined with elastic pockets so, like the aforementioned clutch, you can organize all your on-the-go essentials - like your cell phone, wallet and car keys – easily, bringing an end to the digging around and subsequent dumping-contents-on-the-table searches. Also, the snap enclosure is hidden by the exquisite luxe gold Austrian crystal starburst pendant. Such a fine detail adds a bit of flair and splendor to this bright and formal clutch.

The Kate Bag

A bag for the all the Carrie Bradshaws of the world, the quirky and fashion-forward Kate Bag will put you ahead of the fashion pack – and keep you organized at the same time. With a quilted black satin exterior, embellished with magnificent Swarovski crystal gems, The Kate Bag features a zipper pull and a dangling black couture leather tassel. It’s one expressive detail that shows you’re not afraid to take a fashion risk and pull it off. As for staying organized, the interior of The Kate Bag features different pockets to help you arrange all the fundamentals in an easy-to-find manner.

The Abbey Bag

Covered entirely in glittery gold Swarovski crystals, The Abbey Bag is a more than just a posh clutch for the trendy uptown girl – it’s also a staple accessory that holds more than your make up essentials, with enough room to fit your cell phone and high-end Chinese Laundry wallet. Line in lavish metallic gold leather, The Abbey Bag is outfitted with gold-tone push-lock hardware, encircled with small Swarovski crystals that are topped with a larger, single crystal. It also comes with a detachable 40-inch shoulder chain-strap that allows you to switch from a formal clutch to a causal shoulder bag. All-in-all, The Abbey Bag compliments any cocktail or jeans-and-killer heels outfit.

The Eden Bag

A truly tempting and delicious piece, The Eden Bag is an eye-catching piece for the see-and-be-seen networking professional. Shaped like a silver half-moon and lined in plush metallic leather, The Eden Bag is bedazzled with Swarovski crystals, and features a Swarovski crystal gunmetal design that drapes over the back and front of the piece. It also features silver-toned push-lock hardware, and a 40-inch shoulder chain-strap that, like The Abbey Bag, allows you to change from shoulder bag to clutch in a matter of seconds. But the bonus of this divine piece is not its outstanding beauty but rather its well-needed roominess – there’s enough space for you to organize and carry everything you need for the evening, so no more leaving home without your entire wallet.

A woman should leave home without her essentials just so she could carry a breathtaking accessory. So, when handbag shopping, look for purses that are stylish and have enough room for your everyday needs

8-Tips for Packing and Traveling Lite

2010-01-14T11:41:00.000-06:00

How-to Pack and Travel Lite

In this day and age of traveling cephalalgia, there are a few packing tactics to employ. To cut out an extra thirty to forty minutes at the arriving airport, start with packing small luggage. Since carry-ons can not exceed a linear dimension of 45 inches, you can escape the fiasco of the baggage terminal by simply packing and traveling light. To learn how to pack all your needs into one suitcase, read more.

Use the following pithy packing tips to make your travel light:

Make a list. Compose a pack list. Be sure to coordinate shirts and blouses with bottoms. To maximize your traveling wardrobe fashion savoir faire, stick with solids and versatile basics. Rule-out any clothes that do not match other items.

Roll ‘em up please. The best way to fit all your clothes is by rolling pants and shirts. First fold each item in half. Then simply roll. To try to maintain any creases, start on the bulkiest end of the article of clothing.

Gear up. How to make an awe-inspiring impression out of a basic or mundane outfit? For the most glam appeal, accessorize with a vibrant tie (for him) or a florid scarf (for her). Multihued accessories can liven up just about any attire.

Minimize bulk. After you check for space, edit outfits – ruthlessly. Try to pack microfibers with wrinkle and stain free comfort. With most of your attire, stay in the same color scheme – in case you have to layer up for warmth.

Employ shoe smarts. For men, any leather rubber-soled shoes can make the day and night transition, easy. For woman, a pair of flip-flops, strappy sandals and comfy wedges can serve all casual – chic dressing needs.

Put under garments on the top. To reduce the embarrassment of under garments becoming the side show attraction of the open luggage scan, place all panties in a plastic bag free of any clippers, lighters or other questionable paraphernalia. For expedient security review, place the transparent bag on top of your other items so security can access the bag without ruining your efficient packing method.

Lose Extra Baggage. Leave the heavy travel guide at home. Duplicate important resources to keep your luggage free of extra pounds. Since most hotels and resorts provide irons and blow-dryers --leave yours at home for light travel.

Leave restricted items at home. If you want to make it through security extra fast, avoid any firearms, weapons, box-cutters, scissors, razors, lighters and any other item that may be used in a terrorist situation.

The Pros and Cons of Relying On Workplace Fashion Trends

The Pros and Cons of Relying On Workplace Fashion Trends
Author: candyw

Each day, thousands of Americans, if not more, research workplace fashions. Workplace fashion is often a term that is used to describe the clothing or clothing accessories that are worn to work. Many of those individuals are looking for the “hottest,” trends in workplace clothing, so that they can “fit in,” with the fashionable or well-dressed crowd. Many people believe that dressing in the latest fashion trends may give the reputation of being fashionable and trendy. While it is more than possible to do this, you need to display caution.

What many individuals do not realize is that there are a number of pros and cons to relying on workplace fashion trends. One of those pros or plus sides was mentioned above. When you wear a fashionable outfit to work, there is a good chance that you will receive a lot of compliments on your outfit. This is a nice feeling and it is one that makes many feel proud.

The only thing that you need to remember is that they are many more cons or downsides to relying on workplace fashion trends than there are plus sides. For instance, workplace fashion trends do not always distinguish between jobs and careers. For instance, if you worked at a trendy coffee shop or retail store, there is a good chance that the dress code would be casual clothing and trendy work attire may actually be encouraged. However, if you were to work at a law office or an insurance company, you may be required to dress more professional. Unfortunately, many workplace fashion trends are designed for the working population in general, not specific careers. This is where you can run into trouble if you are not careful.

Before relying on workplace fashion trends or running out to buy a new work outfit, you will want to take a good, close look at the trend in question. For instance, does the trend require the wearing of a shirt or a dress, no matter what the length? If so, it is important that you look at what you do for a living. If you are in a professional office setting, a dress may be perfect for you. On the other hand though, if you were to work in a retail store as a manager or a store stocker, a dress or skirt may actually get in the way and hamper your efforts to work and be productive.

You also need to take a close look in the fashion in question. For instance, it is not uncommon for women to wear casual business suits with a tank top or cami underneath. Before joining in on this trend, you need to remember that you may not necessarily be able to take your work coat or sweater off, as some businesses frown upon tank tops or other revealing shirts. Unless you regularly bring a change of clothes with you to work, you should prepare to wear what you have on all day long.

As previously mentioned, by wearing trendy workplace fashion pieces, like clothing and clothing accessories, many people are given compliments, but not always. The last thing that you want to do is get a bad name for yourself instead of compliments. That is why it is also advised that you take what others may think of you into consideration. If you work in a workplace that is known for its gossip, you may want to take a close look at the fashions that you are interested in displaying. The business world is a tough one and although it is nice to make a good impression, you need to make sure that the impression that you would be making is a good one.

The decision as to whether or not you want to incorporate the latest workplace fashion trends into your wardrobe is yours to make, but you may want to take the above mentioned points into consideration before doing so. Unfortunately, in today’s society it often seems as if what we wear is more important than our personalities.
