Am I behind the times, or what?? Inspired Designers at Penney's!

[Compass Rose]

I happened to be in JC Penney's today, and when I was walking past their purse department, I had to do a double take because this was the first time I noticed courduroy Fendi Spy-like bags being sold there. Also they had inspired YSL muse-type bags. It was kind of interesting, really, because I never noticed that Penney's had inspired bags before. All the basic shapes were there.

I think every maker takes the idea of shapes that are hot at the moment & puts their own spin on it. Since I guess you never know what people are buying the bag for: for a particular shape, the actual design/color, or for the name.
