Which came first, the Balenciaga bags or the Celine boogie?

[soshesaid]

They do look really similar ... I am curious!

hmmm i don't really find them similar....
personally i prefer balenciaga far more than the boogie

 

[soshesaid]

Yeah I definitely prefer the bbags.

I have to say they are quite different. For me, no question asked -- Balenciaga!

 

[Trolley-Dolly]

I own both, and love them both so I can't decide lol!

But I don't think they look alike at all, hmm

In my unlearned opinion...I think the Celine Boogie bag is older. I think it has been an underground chic bag for YEARS...and then suddenly became popular. I only have a Boogie, which I bought at the Celine outlet for a great price. I don't even want to know what a Balenciaga costs...but I'm sure it is out of my range.

TropicalGal, what are the prices like at the Celine outlet? I was wondering because I bought a metalic water buffalo boogie at nm.com over the summer for $500 and am curious is that is similar to outlet pricing. Retail was $1250 I think.
