I love pebbled leather- this reminds me of the Togo or Clemence Hermes leathers- pure luxury!<br /><br />Regarding Made in China, it's very complicated. Too often people think of the China of 20 years ago, but wages have gone up and these days it's more expensive to manufacture there. China also has access to the expensive machines that can produce luxurious garments, bags etc. Bangladesh and Cambodia are far cheaper places to manufacture with less regulation, but they also generally don't have the same access to equipment that can make more luxurious items. I think you're right to evaluate each item independently in terms of quality.<br />Lindsay Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08756634487046300517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-31427344053744594702013-05-27T17:48:58.063-04:002013-05-27T17:48:58.063-04:00I went to a Celine store recently but they sold ou...I went to a Celine store recently but they sold out of the Trio.

It's a very complex issue and much is changing in china.

It really doesn't help that there are numerous books out there pointing their fingers at the chinese for cheaply made things. I sometimes want to point the finger back at the western world for massive outsourcing and exploiting cheap labour for a ridiculously large profit for the past 30 years.<br /><br />It's really too bad that people only look at where something is made to determine the real value and in turn, overlook the construction and quality of the materials use. Don't hear much complains about Isabel Marant clothes being made in India, Poland and Turkey. I've seen some pretty cheap materials and poor craftsmanship in plenty of her pieces. And I mean forever21 cheap too. I think if something is well made and nice materials are used, I would pay for it even if it's expensive and yes, even if it's made in China.agnes comme fellinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05367840422598761069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-7797037062243574462013-05-21T16:37:00.691-04:002013-05-21T16:37:00.691-04:00thanks for reviewing this, i was curious about how...thanks for reviewing this, i was curious about how much it actually fits. i also love the simplicity of the design.ericahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11414537639917539473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-10090023707573647862013-05-21T16:20:59.920-04:002013-05-21T16:20:59.920-04:00Hmm..
