I'm 31 and I think lots of things most people rave about are nothing
special, and often very ugly. People just like it cos it's *in*, or cos
of
wearing the product, or feel that they are. I think it's kind of sad when a
person doesn't have the wherewithal to realize that you could look just as
hot and still save money.

who thinks 99.9% of the Juicy Couture handbags are uglyuglyugly? It was so
depressing today at the VA NM, when I couldn't find any Furla bags at all,
but there were loads of JC bags *everywhere*. Is this one of those age
things, where I'm just too old (i.e. over 35) to see the appeal of these?

Yes, but have you seen the JC Barbies? My 3.5 y/o is coveting them–

Um, I don't think so. Not at her age.
I do like the Versace one though, still I'm not sure I'd purchase it (and I've
got a whole stash of collector barbies for her)–

I agree, Michele. It amazes me how every season things just get uglier and
uglier. I used to go shopping and find dozens of things to buy. Now everything
is so ugly and cheap looking that I often come home with nothing. For some
reason, some people buy things based on the name just to "fit in" and "be like
everyone else". I definitely agree with Stevie's opinion of hype overriding
common sense in this and many other instances.

Yup. The JC bags look like something the women of that HBO show 'Family
Bonds' would carry. Plus they are all so big – more like overnight
cases than handbags.
